I am afflicted with a certain malady: I see possibilities in everything. I had rescued a few old Christmas things, either from my late in laws or from my grandparents, like the top of a light box.
I trimmed it down and started decorating. I had all the stuff in my stash so it was easy and fun. I love reminders of the past, particularly my childhood. Everything else is new, except for the bell tag at the top. There is sort of a mix of decades on here; early 20th century people, mid century box and tag. My mother in law had written on the box '1948, 89 cents.' 89 cents for lights!!!!!!!

This is delightful! I'm with your mil...I love to write what something cost, kinda of like a message in the bottle. Like last Christmas buying a bottle of vanilla at Costco for $35. Can you believe that?
Your mixed media piece is uber cool.
