Florence's Box...Nine Lives Exhibition

Florence made beautiful things, talked to angels and had a black cat who told her stories....they both mysteriously disappeared one day.....it is all in the story written for the box and will be made into book form shortly and published.

Inside the lid of Florence's box are pages from a 19th century book on Etiquette. I've embroidered "words of wisdom" such as she would have been taught when making samplers on the sides of the box, and Mehitabelle, her talking cat sits inside the box.

The other images are details of some of the artefacts "she made".
