70's shadow boxes
Posted: Sun Dec 13, 2015 11:19 am
So when I was a kid, my parents had this kind of crap on the wall.
I was a kid and didn't understand why they'd want a box with old dried beans and pasta and weeds as a decoration (note, these are not their shadow boxes but examples I've found online) I remember even asking at the time but I never did get a satisfactory answer.
Does anyone remember this... fad? I assume it was a fad because I recall others had similar decorations. There is precious little information about it online and I am wondering why. Why? Why!? WHY?!!!?! Forty years later and I still don't get it.
