Beautiful Memories of Your Life and Our World
Memory Box Creations
My Memory Boxes hang as art in your home. They express a nostalgia for Ontario’s past.
Each box is one of a kind:
- different sizes
- different contents
- different frames
My name is Lisa Staton. I make the Memory Boxes , working alone in my studio in Exeter, Ontario. I search Ontario for artifacts and treasures that artfully tell the story of our past.

Lacy Tool and Grater
$175
Antique kitchen and carpentry tools are interesting in their use of materials, their functions and their shapes, sizes, colours and designs. The “Lacy Tool” www.blog.housewares.org/2011/10/25/housewares-history-dishpan/ is a pot scrubber that was strong enough to use on cast iron cooking pans with salt or sand as an abrasive cleanser. It really is quite beautiful for something as utilitarian as cleaning a pot! I matched it with the small grater because the grater holes seemed reminiscent of the larger holes of the scrubber, and the metal colour is similar, 11 ¾”x 15”.
