I love this. Keepsake boxes, jewelry boxes, other places storing the small items make up the stories of our lives are all rich with their own tales. Thank you for sharing yours!
Great piece! I never knew your dad worked at the same plant as my dad during WWII. My dad worked as an engineer developing a wing dolly for the P47 Thunderbolt. If I remember right, it was about changing the wings quickly to get the plane back in the air.
I love this. Every time I do go scrounging through my childhood jewelry box, I have similar recollections. I enjoyed seeing your pieces and the memories they hold for you.
Thanks for sharing. You’re a colorful writer, very visual. ❤️
Ray, Thank you!

Cynthia, Thanks. It was hard to decide which treasures I'd write about. So many stories.
How fun. What a wonderful trove of treasures you have. I've never been much of a jewelry person but I do have some wonderful heirlooms I cherish.
Lesley, It was fun! And there are so many stories in that box. Heirlooms are great too! Thanks for reading and commenting.
Jewelry boxes are such great memory keepers, aren't they? Thanks for taking us along!
Lori, They sure are. It’s amazing the memories things bring back. Thanks for reading.
