Recent Boxes, June 2019

This is the last batch of boxes. 16 June 2019. Bottom four made from Paper Phenomenon paper, Flutter and Bloom. Kathy King is scrapbook designer I follow and she recently, working with graphic artist, has begun designing and selling her own line of paper. The Halloween paper was another example. Haven't decided where these boxes will go but wanted to record. The bottom four are not finished, may take another photo later but I mailed some recently without making a record for me.

addendum: 9 Aug 2019.  Sent the bottom four boxes and the middle box on top shelf to four of my US Army Intern friends and a daughter of one who just bought her first home. They were well received. Who wouldn't enjoy a box with beautiful butteries or pretty flowers?

Gift Boxes

7 June 2019....I do not always take photos of the boxes I make. Sent package off this week with one Proper Gentleman for Lee Russell and a box each for Perla      and Morgan Henderson. They are our financial managers at Edward Jones in Gainesville. Today, I can list 53 remembered boxes and have several on shelf and making 4 new ones.  Rotating between work on boxes and research on Ancestry.com, trying so hard to find my G G Grandmother Bethena/ Parthena/ Matheny Bustre's parents...or just her correct name. Many, Many FaceBook groups to listen and offer advice. Today I was sent to Georgia Archives Virtual Vault. Found image of Henry Co, Wedding book 1822-18??
Copied "B" page, maybe, Matheny had brother that married around time she did. Hopefully I can crumble that her brick wall.
