spontaneous craftiness

While reorganizing my disaster area of a work space - I decided to throw this little goody together. I had gotten the metal box at an antique store and have had it for years - it's sturdy and pretty - but I needed to clean up some stuff on my desk...

(like the test silk rose that I made for Lauren's dress last year, stones and starfish from my recent trip to Manzanita, OR and some cool vintage buttons I bought last month on a whim)

...so this is what came of it. Thought about selling it for about a minute. But I heart it and I'm keeping it! Such a great way to display some sentimental stuff - I will be reminded of good things every time I look at it - who cares that it is already filled with a bazillion to-do's and to-file's!
