Good morning world! It is currently eight minutes til noon and yes, I did just wake up. Kudos to you early risers. I couldn't have chosen a more self explanatory title--this is my first blog post (so you've been warned!) I plan to use this blog to vent, explore ideas, share my days and nights with readers (or no readers at all.) This may or may not be a NYE resolution and I will never say so, so that there is no harsh judgement.
Today I plan to design a shadow box with old roses. I've been planning to do this since my junior year in high school and I've been simultaneously saving the dead roses, too. I have roses from my junior prom, my senior prom, some from a pageant I did, and a few birthdays. I've been called a hoarder by father who simply didn't understand the full concept of my idea and my constant search for a damn shadow box. But I have prevailed! And finally, I was gifted a worn-green glass box.
What does this mean? (Besides the fact that I can finally begin the crafty project.) It means, I am finally going to showcase these mementos in an acceptable way--cut and glued nicely in a glass box. Because, like our humanely spirits and feelings, people can perceive them as clutter or trash or hoarding unnecessary memories--only accepting them, when they're trimmed and pasted and viewed from a glass box, not scattered around in empty vases.
