Traditional Memory Boxes

My older daughter got engaged on a hike through the North Carolina mountains. There were not photos of the event conducive to creating a Memory Box, so I took a picture from their wedding and photos of the area where they were hiking.

While these Memory Boxes are not for sale, they are examples of Traditional Memory Boxes that can be created to capture your special memories. Traditional Boxes use cut white paper and are backlit with LED lights. Boxes that are for sale can be found further down in The Gallery and in The Shop.

Engagement #1

In Her Element

Engagement #2

My younger daughter's husband went all out for his proposal. He hired a professional photographer to be on hand, even though the event happened on a little island near Wilmington, NC. This gave me plenty of options.

This Memory Box was made as a Christmas gift for my best friend. It represents both her love for her chocolate lab and her new home in Washington State.

In addition to Traditional Memory Boxes, I also create Color Memory Boxes. Below shows how a picture can be interpreted in different ways: The Traditional Memory Box vs. Color Memory Box. Color boxes are not lighted but provide a different dramatic effect.

There are no more precious memories than those involving family! Using a picture of my granddaughter enjoying a day at the park, I created both a Color and Traditional Memory Box.

Moments from the Heart

These Memory Boxes have different stories but can be reproduced for purchase.

The Venue

My younger daughter's wedding was held at a beautiful venue at the beach. This was actually the first Memory Box I made, which I gave to the owner as a "thank you" gift. It is available for reproduction.

In Flight

This Memory Box was created as a "thank you" for the sister and brother-in-law of my best friend. He loved watching and photographing the local tundra swans. It is available for reproduction.

These are boxes that have already been created. Although they represent special memories of mine, they are not unique and I am happy to remake them for you if they match a memory of your own, or even just make you happy!

Mountain Memories

New River Gorge, WV

Hawks Nest, WV

Blue Ridge Mountains, NC

$250

The New River Gorge in West Virginia is a wonderful place to go white water rafting, collect beautiful river rocks and watching the bridge being built was incredible!

$200

Hawks Nest State Park was another favorite place to visit while growing up in West Virginia.

After moving to North Carolina, our family had many gatherings at Big Lynn Lodge in Little Switzerland. What a wonderful place to relax and enjoy the views!

Picture Lake, WA

$200

In Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest in the state of Washington is Artist Point. It is well-named as the views are incredible and certainly inspirational. This box is about Picture Lake which perfectly reflects Mt. Shuksan.

Denali, AK

$175

On an incredible trip to Alaska, we were blessed with an absolutely perfect day to see Denali. Creating this box brought back the feeling of awe we all had when we came upon this view.

El Capitan, CA

$200

My sister commissioned this picture of El Capitan in Yosemite National Park. She did not have her own picture, so I used one I found on the internet. I do not use copyrighted images in my designs.

Places of the Heart

State of the Heart

My husband and I were both born and raised in West Virginia; however, when our girls were very little, we made the decision to move to North Carolina. We may now have "tar on our heels" but we will always have "almost heaven" in our hearts! Maybe you have a state (or country) that is near and dear to you that you would like to capture in a Memory Box.

We never forget our roots! I created this collection to remember where we grew up: West Virginia. This collection can be recreated, or a custom order can be made for the home of your heart.

The Trifecta

Not for Sale

I have the best sons-in-law, so thought they deserved a little something special. One is a huge Philadelphia Eagles fan and the other lives at the beach with my daughter (who is in the pool). He has his pilots license and they hope to own a boat some day. If you look closely, you will see two dogs in the plane.

This idea was started when I did a Memory Box for a dear friend.

Glamour

Robin's Rememberies

I made this Logo Box for myself as an example of what could be done. Because of the purpose of the box, there are different options. As you can see, I used lights that allow different color choices. If this is something you are interested in, use the Custom Logo button below to order.

Another dear friend used to have her own business as a beautician. I had fun experimenting with a totally different style of Memory Box for her spa.

This was a custom order based off the Blue Ridge Mountains Memory Box. Both are views from Big Lynn Lodge in Spruce Pine, NC.

These are custom orders and will not be replicated without permission; however, I hope they inspire you to "think outside the box" when considering what can be done for you. You can reference items that are not for sale by their title when making a custom order.
