Church bazaar

Sorry I have been away so long but I had a death in my family last week (my brother) and was not able to write in this blog.  But while I was away I was able to purchase three new boxes while I out of town. Very soon I will be posting pictures of some of the other boxes I have. In the meanwhile I will be selling boxes at a church bazaar in West Philly this Saturday.  I do not know the name of the church but it is located on 60th and Walnut.  The bazaar will happen rain or shine so if you would like to see or buy some decorative boxes come on by!

Boxes in the background

The boxes that you see in the template background are from my collection of boxes that I have gathered down through the years form various sources.  One of my favorites is the Egyptian-style box of Taw-waret, the Egyptian goddess of childbirth.  She has the head of a hippopotamus.  Another is the oval yellow porcelain box with plants from a meadow decorating the top and sides.  All these boxes are basically containers but whatever a person wishes to contain in them is up to the owner.
