Memory box

Beanbabe · Feb 13th, 2010, 03:40 AM

Does anyone know a website where I can get a decent sized memory box. I currently have Matthews things in a cardboard box and would love to get something beautiful to put them in. My task for this week is to order one.... having a very rough few days and need to do something for him.

I have a lof of stuff for Matthew. When he was born I asked people to buy him a small gift intending to put it into his casket but there was just too much of it so we kept it all. I have a selection of blankets, teddies, bibs, booties and the list goes on. So any of the memory boxes i have seen are just too small.

Any ideas would be appreciated. thanks

I've found regular photo storage boxes to be a nice size for a modest memory box... if you have lots of stuff you could get a couple of matching units, and they should be easy enough to find at any craft or department store

How about getting a storage box from a diy store then decorating it yourself with shells, sequins, bead, ribbon??

Someone bought me a box from this website. The lady is lovely,she lost her little girl, alexandra, so really understands. The box is beautiful and is personalised with names, dates, a small poem.

I don't know if it would be big enough though. We have a few extra little bits like teddies, etc in a nice bag.
