The Sunday Showcase: Story Boxes

So I've really been inspired by Story Boxes lately and have been wanting to make one for Sweet P & Sprout. These 2 Story Boxes from last week may have been just what I needed to motivate me to make one this week. Both are made from recycled materials and both are just perfect for little hands!

The Good Long Road shared her Story Box for Where is Baby's Pumpkin? by Karen Katz. I just loved that her little boy was involved in the creation and construction of the box and the simplicity of the materials.

One Perfect Day's Story Box was for the book Lost and Found by Oliver Jeffers and isn't it just adorable!? I think that little guy looks like Where's Waldo and love it! Hers is also constructed from various recycled materials. SO fun, simple and inexpensive!
