Some people take pictures to remember; since the 1970s, Sharon and her late husband James made tiny buildings from business cards and packaging. She writes:
The original idea was for them to be Christmas decorations-to be placed over tiny white lights on our tree, or to gather on a side table as a little village. Each holiday, James would add to our collection. A few were given to friends, but most rested in an attic-stored box through most of the year...escaping for Christmas, to our delight.Sharon continues:
Because the tiny buildings were made from familiar boxes, or restaurant business cards, or other pieces collected as we traveled and lived, they became miniature memoirs of happy times and places.
Many years later, in 2000 or so, 10 years after James' death, I started to add to the collection. I gathered cards from the many stores and restaurants and fun places that Jane and Madison, our now-grown children, and I visited, and gave them to each of them for Christmas presents.
