Hope is like a light flickering within you - though at times it shines more brightly. I thought it was apt to surround the words in this tiny box with the tiniest sequins and beads to shine and catch the light.
I like the way the little boxes look together. A collection of tiny tokens, to be called upon in times of need, slipped into a pocket, closing fingers around them, a comfort.
So beautiful and reassuring.
ReplyDeleteThese are oh so lovely and comforting.

You're right Christine, they do look lovely together! I adore little boxes and am always looking out for them. It's such a sweet idea to have a tiny portable reminder of words of encouragement. When my boyfriend was going through a time of anxiety I simply stitched the words 'I love you' on a scrap of fabric and posted it to him. He keeps it in his wallet so that now he sees it every day.
ReplyDeletelovely words. hope is one of my absolute favorites.. and your work is beautiful, refreshing and so uplifting..
ReplyDeletethank you for sharing.

Dear Christine, this is sublime.
ReplyDeleteYou always create such wonderful thoughtfull work Christine. I love the idea of carrying the token in your pocket. I have the key fob from my father's keys which stays in my purse, I often look at it going about my day. It is a comfort to me.
ReplyDeleteyou create such tender treasures
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely idea. In your pocket, on a potentially difficult day.
ReplyDeleteWonderful, as always

I found two small vintage tins last week & am soooo keen to get sewing - this is just the inspiration I need. Thanks for always being so inspirational ….
