A
new baby … life begins, blossoms, and grows.
And although the time a parent spends with a
little one seems to stretch in anticipation
endlessly into the horizon, the day that baby
is grown and gone comes only too quickly. What
better way to cherish and remember the milestones
and everyday pleasures of a new life than to
collect special mementoes and keep them in timeless
archival preservation kits?

Everything
from locks of hair and baby bracelets, cards,
Christening gowns, and favorite toys and sweaters
find a safe home in our archival boxes. The Baby
Textile Preservation Kit gives a permament
home to future heirloom pieces, such as the darling
sweater Auntie Jenny knitted, as well as pieces
already handed down through the family and enjoyed
by your own children. Because none of our boxes
are sealed, you can take your textiles out time
and again to be worn and enjoyed - just remember
to wash them and wrap them with the special tissue
before returning them to the box! The
Baby Keepsake Box, complete with cotton muslin
cover that matches the Textile Preservation Kit,
gathers together all the bits and pieces of your
baby's life and growth that tell a story.

Family
Jewels' keepsake boxes and textile preservation
kits not only bring "industrial strength"
materials to home heirloom collections, but full
instructions for use mean that rather than lengthy
projects which may never be completed, our keepsake
projects are fast and easy to complete. And what
mother, new or "old" wants to spend
too much time on this sort of thing; parents are
time-challenged individuals! Because our kits
use a variety of archival enclosures, you only
need to gather the keepsakes, place them in the
appropriate enclosure, and put them in the box
.
And
what is appropriate for your keepsakes on the
inside is mirrored by simple elegance on the outside.
Fitted muslin box covers not only help keep dust
and light damage to a minimum, but offer a place
for monogramming baby's intitials or date of birth,
or both! Select pink or blue monogramming for
the final touch.

Enjoying
the treasures within our keepsake boxes becomes
an event children love and parents appreciate. For
your own babies, for gifts, or for "old"
mothers whose children's treasures are scattered
throughout the house, our keepsake and textile preservation
boxes preserve far more than just treasures …. |

For your precious baby textiles, a storage solution
so easy, and elegant! Heirloom items and new items
destined to be family treasures will look beautiful
in our cotton-swathed archival box with custom monogramming.
Keeping favourite baby clothes in plastic containers
will only cause those items to fade, get moldy,
and deteriorate. If you are planning to hand down
or simply enjoy in the future a few of baby's most
special pieces, this is the place to store them.
The
Baby Textile Preservation box is made from translucent
water-resistant archival polymer which is acid free,
lignin-free, dye-free, and adhesive-free. Our boxes
are assembled by hand so they are safe from potentially-dangerous
adhesives. More stable over time than even archival
fibreboard because our boxes will not absorb moisture
and develop problems resulting from moisture.
- box does not get sealed so you are encouraged
to take the lid off, don the cotton gloves and check
your treasures and the acid-free, unbuffered tissue
wrapping them from time to time, and most of all,
enjoy the contents whenever you want to!
-
protects your textiles from light, dust, moisture,
humidity, and harmful temperature fluctuations
common to most households. Our instructions will
tell you where in your home to place your box,
avoiding "trouble spots."
-
not attractive to insects and vermin who seek
out cardboard and glues to infest and eat
-
sturdy, lightweight construction
-
classic unbleached cotton muslin protective bag
further reduces light and dust damage.

which establishes your Baby Textile Preservation
Box as an "instant heirloom." Click
