If people are careful and replace the stamp and logbook the way they are shown (which I know they won't), the label for the box is visible.
I'm sure Kirbert would give me twenty reasons why I shouldn't plant a box like this. It's not waterproof, etc, etc, etc. And he's probably right. So I hereby promise that I will not gripe and complain when/if the box goes missing. I'm planning to take my little kitchen scraper (the only thing from Pampered Chef that I actually use) and make a depression for the base of the mushroom to fit snuggly into. I'm hoping that the box will be just fun enough that people will have the incentive to replace it carefully. I can dream, can't I?
Just for fun, I'm going to create a poll for people to vote on how long they think this box will last. Voting will end on September 1st.
I think that is a fabulous idea! I'm tired of lock-n-locks myself and kinda like to buck the system, so I use pouches. Yeah, they are not foolproof, but they fit in so many places. I completely love the idea of different types of boxes just for fun. And hey, when they go missing, just retire it and plant something somewhere else that no one has seen, right?
ReplyDeleteI used VHS cases for years, just like my mentor Daelphinus. Yeah, they leaked, but if you used enough freezer ziplocks they were fine. Worked like a charm (I still have some of these active, actually).
I have high hopes for your little mushroom, my friend. :-)
You make me want to move. ;-)
