Memory Art Fresh Ideas for Shadowboxes and Other Keepsake Displays

"Memory Art" shows readers how to make unusual displays for showcasing a collection, celebrating an event, or honoring a memory. Thirty shadowboxes are presented here, all with detailed instructions. First up: ten collection-themed projects designed to hold such items as lapel pins, vintage buttons, and coins. Next: ten celebration-themed projects to hold mementos from weddings, births, or graduations. Last but not least: ten honor-themed projects to commemorate family history, ancestors, even beloved pets in creative and long-lasting displays. Design guidelines help readers select and arrange items in artful ways that maximize impact. A "getting started" chapter reviews basic shadowbox construction, discusses proper use of adhesives, and explains how to ensure archival quality. Don't let life's most cherished moments slip away--capture them forever with beautiful memory art.Maloney, Mary Lynn is the author of 'Memory Art Fresh Ideas for Shadowboxes and Other Keepsake Displays', published 2007 under ISBN 9780871162519 and ISBN 0871162512.
