Happy Valentine's Day Amy Sweetie...
I couldn't pick just one, they were all so beautiful. Love the colors together don't you? I mean who said red and pink are for Valentine's Day. The teal and golden yellow, just beautiful. I always liked the velvety ones, that when you brushed them with your hand they were SO soft.

Thanks for sharing and have a beautiful Valentine's Day. Country hugs and much love, Sherry

I got such a pang of nostalgia....OMG I sooo remember these!!!! The more satin-y, more embellished with lace ribbon, the better!!!! Brings back great memories, and dont' even get me started on what was inside, I had zero willpower. And some things just dont' change...lol.
Happy Valentines Amy!

Thanks for sharing these gorgeous boxes! A few weeks ago I was at one of my favorite antique malls and they had a huge Valentine's display. Out of the corner of my eye I spied the most fabulous large antique pink heart shaped candy box that was decorated with wide pleated pink velvet ribbon, millinery flowers and antique ribbon. I didn't care how much it cost, it was going to be mine. I turned it over and there in black and white was the dreaded "NFS" in pen. The words "Not For Sale" were not a welcome sight! LOL! ~Stacy~

Those boxes would make a wonderful present for Valentine's Day. Especially if it was filled with Belgian Chocolates or Hershey Kisses or something like that.

Stacy Curran said...

I've never seen anything like those. Suspect they don't make them like that anymore!

De tout, de rien said...

Chocolate makers out there, are you reading these comments? Bring those lovely boxes back!

Kelly said...

Those boxes bring back memories for me of how they looked when I was a kid. I guess it got too expensive to keep making them like that. That's a nice collection!

Nita {ModVintageLife} said...

These are so pretty. I wish they still made them like that. I hope you are having a wonderful birthday.
