Retiring this One...

one of my earliest craft projects:

While on my organizing/getting things done kick...

I was packing up the Christmas stuff (all organized, sorted)

and found this little gem.

Note the date: 1987...

that's a long time for a taped toegether construction paper box to be around.

It's been a construction paper mess 'un-box' for a few years... and it hasn't made the tree for a long time.

So I decided to take some pictures, and then throw it away.

Pictures last a lot longer.

It's been around long enough that I don't think I'll have trouble remembering it.

but just in case,

I took the pictures.

In a few more years we may have another construction paper box on our tree - this time with a little boy's face on it instead. :)
