Where a memory box closes things away, a shadow box lets you keep a few precious things in sight. It's a deep frame with a glass front, made to hold objects, not just pictures.
A photo with a hospital bracelet beside it. Dried flowers from the service. Their name written in someone's handwriting. A tiny pair of booties. One or two items is enough — the space around them is part of it.
Hang it somewhere you'll pass often, so seeing them becomes part of an ordinary day.
