A little idea

that I'm pleased with.

I have a lot of toys left over from my own childhood,

my mother's nursery school

and my own children.

Some of them have seen better days, 

and are mostly without their original packing.

I have a goodly supply of small boxes and so until recently

was happy enough just to decant and store into those.

But with lids on, these were not very helpful to little B 

who likes to choose toys and put them away herself on the shelf.

So I photocopied the contents

directly on the photocopier bed

and stuck the startlingly 3D image

onto each of the lids.

I'm going to do the same with Lego.

I sorted that years before I knew there'd be anyone else

playing with it, so it's all complete with instructions 

but there are hardly any original boxes.

It was such fun that I am casting round for other things to photocopy.

Food perhaps?

Tools?

Art equipment?
