I was ready to go through my '07 Christmas cards that I received and toss them away, when I came upon this clever idea by Junie Moon to make boxes out of them!
They are fun and easy to make. You can do the same with any greeting card. I think it would be sweet to give someone a little gift in a box made from a card they sent to me previously.
Hello and welcome!
I'm Pat, a lifelong New Yorker who has recently moved to a suburb of Denver in the beautiful state of Colorado, so that I can live close to my children and grandchildren. I look forward to learning many new things about my new "mile high" city and I will share them on my blog.
New York City will always be my second home, and I will also continue to share many posts about it.
My blog's name in Italian means a "Thousand Favorite Flowers." I chose this unusual blog name because researching and writing for my blog, and taking photogrpahs for it, is like another "memory flower" that I am collecting in my bouquet of life.
I hope you will enjoy your visit to my blog and that you will leave a comment so that I know you've been here.
Thanks!

Those are very clever! We all love containers!
How cool is this!! I just sat here and made one so I wouldn't forget about it. I LOVE this post.
I'm having fun reading through your old stuff. I knew I missed out on a lot of stuff before I found you.
I want to comment on everything but I know you have no desire to read a million message from me so I'm holding back.
Hugs,
Joanne
