When I found these nice blue and gold cardboard boxes I know I can create my first serie of memory boxes… then I need to found similar items to create this serie : stamps, little metal box of pen nibs, an old french coin, 2 small pencils and of course some old photos and papers. 

My favorite movie, Amelie Poulain, inspires memory boxes: you know this moment when she founds a box hidden in her apartment and it changes her life. I collect Ephemera for years and I compose these memory boxes with letters, photos, invoices, etc. Each box is unique and I hope it will inspire your own story.
