BADGEThe little embroidered St Patrick's Day badge I never wore, in all the long years since I bought it to support a charity.
LABEL
This label I collected, considering to enter for the competition which I had seen advertised in the library in NCAD in the winter of 2009. To enter you had to send in three labels off jars of honey. I gave up when I read that - it would take me years to eat that much honey! Anyway, I was in the throes of my thesis, so I didn't have time to be doing extra art-work.
ENVELOPES
Assuming that these brown envelopes are all from the same year, I can date them to a December between 1987 when my aunt's husband died, and 1997 when she herself was dying. Most of the other addresses have also changed since whenever it was.
BLUE STICKERS
These stickers are from Philips audio cassette tapes and could be used for colour coding the tapes
BLACK STICKERS
These were from Agfa audio-cassette tapes, and were designed for categorizing music tapes. However, most of the recording I did was spoken, so the labels didn't get used.
WRAPPER
This wrapper is just from a few days ago (I am working towards dealing with current ephemera, to reduce current accumulations - at least that's the vague idea). I bought the Snack bar at the Day of Recollection in All Hallows, December 11 2010. I only ate one of the three biscuits during the day, and felt very proud of myself that I managed to resist the temptation to gobble the other two when I got home.
C-BOX PROGRESS
This is the box I am planning to use as the C-BOX, and as you see it is in my favourite green colour.
On the right, you can see the pile of books and magazines under the piano that I removed from the green box a few night's ago. Haven't planned where to put them yet.
