"Unfortunately, I almost don't have photos of my childhood, but I remember how I used to play with paper dolls at my granny's house, having a great time with all her boxes. She used to have boxes for everything: buttons, sewing, laces and knitting. She also had a closet full of special drawers filled with colored pencils, brushes and oil paints. It was amazing to explore her stuff. My mother also had a big box with card games, a collection of 1000 games, which was filled with dominoes, stones, cards, dices and a lot of small pieces. I can’t estimate the time I spent exploring and playing with these treasures boxes. So, I made myself a memory box that celebrates this time and all my childhood playtimes memories." Technique highlight: "I altered a chocolate candy paper box. After painting it, I prepared a collage background and filled everything with Graphic 45 papers and something else from old books and coloring books. I also added some cards, embellishments and memorabilia".
