Anyone interested in obtaining a box to paint, please contact Jeanne Swanson or Phyllis Lynch. Phyllis will have a list of guidelines for painting the boxes. The guidelines, examples and some patterns may be downloaded from the website www.memoryboxes.org. Please contact Jeanne Swanson or Phyllis Lynch if you have any questions or need help with this worthwhile project.
Thank you for being so generous with your time, talent and dollars in supporting MemoryBoxes.org This means so much to the people who receive them. Keep up the good work ladies!
A tip from friends at Redwood Tole Folk – if you gesso before painting, it is much easier.
Special thanks to Carl and Donna White for providing material and manufacture of the 2006 Special Drawing quilt rack and to Ronnie Gobel for doing such an outstanding job painting it!
