So this morning I rushed back to Goodwilland started looking for it.
Low: Couldn't find it any where. :o(
High: Found it!!! It had been moved.
Low: Sweet young cashier asks, "Are you a senior?" Eh-hm... Me: "Nnnnooooo?"
High: Walking out of the store a good looking young guy asks, "How you doin'?"
~sigh~
(Later found out from Carrie that today is senior discount day and she thinks I should have said 'yes' but I'm not ready for a senior discount, thankyouverymuch!!!)

So, what to do with this cute little shadow box? I was thinking about decorating it, scrapbook style with small pictures and bits of coordinating paper. Now that I am looking at that wonderful red velvet, I may do a Christmas theme... Something to think about.

Well, you are a smokin' senior if I ever saw one! Evidently the guy thought so, too! You gotta remember--everyone in their late teens/early twentys thinks everyone over 30 is a senior!! Very cute shadow box! xo
Cute post! :) And I think they consider senior discount at Goodwill to be 55 and over, so you're only 5 years away! heh-heh-heh...wanna go shopping with me next Tuesday? ;)
Looking forward to seeing what you do with the shadow box, and glad that you were able to find it again.
Deb your Mum has it in one!
What a great shadow box! So many possibilities. And what a cute story too :)
love the idea of a Christmas shadowbox - can just imagine it all done up in your beautiful style
I'm thinking 12 little boxes, 12 days of Christmas? It certainly is lovely and I just know you will do something fabulous with it.
Senior citizen? - pah! I prefer the Joey from Friends comment 'How YOU doing?'
It's gonna make a great project...worth dashing back for.....and your mum certainly has it right!!
Well, I think you Mum would be right IF you were a senior, which of course you aren't. At all. In any way. Great post which gave me a smile this morning :)
And thanks for your lovely comment yesterday!
that's a great idea. i know whatever you do with it, it will look adorable. a senior? are you kidding me. i think the guy had it right. how fun.
rofl!! What a day of ups and downs... Glad you got your frame, can't wait to see what you do with it xx
:o) Thanks for your comments, everyone. I'm still laughing to myself about this episode from yesterday. I was telling a patient at work about it and she said, "You will never forget this day - the first time someone asked if you are a senior." LOL I think she's right!
PS: Carrie, you little stinker... xo
Ok really--how old was the cashier--12? You do not look like a "senior"! But can't wait to see what you will create out of the shadow box!!!
Love you!

Very funny! I love the shape of that shadowbox. I think that Ali Edwards has a similar product and some cut examples on her blog.

Can't wait to see what you end up doing with the shadow box.

Oh, you've just made me laugh outloud! The cashier obviously needs specs! I remember being mortified when someone offered me their seat on the bus ~ I was in my early 30s at the time!
Glad you went back for that little cutie. The possibilities are endless.
Great find, even if you aren't a senior. LOL. Can't wait to see what you do with it.
