Have you seen the French movie Amélie? It is by far one of my most favourite movies ever, my go to for cheer ups, absolute feel good and for the love of Audrey Tatou. ❤
If you have indeed seen it you’d remember the memory box Amelie finds buried behind a loose tile in her bathroom, hidden by a boy 40 years ago. And in that box she finds faded photos from an era gone by, and a toy car among other things. This sets her thinking, imagining and going about fixing the world around her. It’s “all the feels” really. This is the precious scene from the movie Amelie I speak of.
So when I saw this movie and this particular scene i so wanted to make a memory box for myself but sadly I had nothing from my childhood. It made me a bit sad and then I started saving movie ticket stubs, shells from the beach etc. But never got around to making a memory box anyway.
For #babyT however I decided I would make a box full of #keepsakes. Stuff that I could touch, feel and lose myself in memories of, when I opened the box anytime. I also plan to hand this over to babyT when he is grownupT and I hope he enjoys the experience too.
So what’s in my #keepsake box?
