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.
Custom Creations
I will also work with you to assemble your treasured objects to tell your story and give substance to your precious memories.

Deep bright red that you see in the book cover was a common colour for printing and books in the late 19th century and early 20th century. It is likely it was an easily available and inexpensive dye colour, as well as one that had a rich look. The small box that used to hold thumb tacks reflects that same red, and it stands out against its cream background. www.edgee.net/how-to-apply-the-7-elements-of-design-to-your-work-element-7-colour/ The tin section and the red checkers piece draw that colour in from the rest of the design, 9”x 11”.
