Special Consideration: This book of collages was an award winner in the Open Call titled "Finding Love and Transformation in a Book of Collage, 2021. It features 56 individual collages.

This is a unique, one of a kind, assemblage of a vintage glass photo slide with underneath light inside a box.

I had this gorgeous magic lantern slide of two Egyptian men with a camel, that deserved to be displayed and I came up with this design inside a box. It is an original concept that I absolutely love.

The box has been handmade to allow the glass photo to sit in the lid, while inside hides a sensor light that when activated brings the photo to life, while also creating a wonderfully magic atmosphere in the room.

The light automatically turns itself off after 30 seconds. The batteries are provided and can be easily replaced. The box ties with a ribbon and comes in its own fabric pouch, ecodyed to create a warm textured colour. So it can be easily stored when not in use.

Lovely present for children and adults. It can sit on a bedside table to accompany story time.
