Didn't get my computer back yet, but figured out how to save pics on DD's computer, so here we go. This little honey came from DMIL when she moved into Assisted Living, it has a Ben Franklin Sticker on the bottom that says $1.19 on it!!!!!!!! Isn't it beautiful??? it is wooden and that is a real cameo on the front of it, inside is a locket with my Great Grandmothers photo in it and the other vintage jewelry came with the box from Grandma. It sits on the Bookshelf that my Uncle made me when I was a little girl, that is where I put alot of my oldies but goodies. :) Check out http://coloradolady.blogspot.com/2009/04/vintage-thingie-thursday-vintage.html

Beautiful. I have seen lots of pretty wooden boxes, but I can not remember seeing one with a cameo on the front. I love this one, very unique. Have a great week and Happy Easter!
Very pretty wooden box and I love cameos.
I see you are still up, well, it is past my bed time so good night and Happy Easter.
It's a great box, and I love that the price sticker is still on it!

Beatufiul! I love the cameo, brings back memories. Thanks for sharing, Paula from Idaho
Just beautiful..thanks for sharing.
What a lovely box. I've never seen one with a cameo.
what a gorgeous locket :)
I really like the box, but the necklace is really nice. And to have such a special picture already in it, well that just makes it even better.
one of the pretty wooden boxes that I've seen.. love the cameo.. happy Easter
I remember those wooden boxes. They're cedar, aren't they?
Very pretty and I love the locket. Lockets are so , so beautiful.
Ooooo, the cameo is beautiful. Happy VTT...have a lovely weekend.
You are so fortunate to have these wonderful family heirlooms! I know you'll treasure them always!
I love wood boxes - I used to collect them years back - they are fascinating for what they are, what can be placed inside them, and what they can become!
Family treasures are the BEST treasures! Enjoy! Happy Easter
The little box is a treasure as is the locket but I really like the fact that it has Mountain Home, Idaho printed on the lid showing that it is a souvenir piece!
What a wonderful vintage treasure...sure could get quality things at Ben Franklin way back when! The box is beautiful and makes a great jewelry box!
So beautiful! It reminds me of a jewelry box that my boyfriend's father gave to me for Christmas one year...he knows I love vintage things!!! :)
Great vintage stuff!! This is my first VTT and its been great fun looking at all your blogs. That box looks like one I have. I keep vintage jewelry in it.
Have a great Easter and blessings to all
