1960’s Hankie Box Made from Cards I grew up in the Sixties, hence where some of my influence and ideas come from for our lovely retro, pastel, shabby chic style home. I remember that some lovely little old ladies, friends of my Mothers, made my Sister, and I, a lovely hankie box each. I always thought mine was the prettiest. Lol. They sat on our dressing table, my Sister’s on her side on the dressing table and mine on my side. (It was more like a shorter tall boy, than a dressing table, but I loved it. It was painted white with turquoise doors to match our bed heads). I don’t remember what colour our hankie boxes where or the detail on them but I do remember a special feeling when I would look at its pretty pictures on it, and that it had just as pretty pictures on the inside. It always intrigued me as to how they got the picture on both sides and behind a protective coating. I also loved the way that the picture had been joined together....
