Limoges Boxes...

Someone else asked if anyone has bought one of those custom-designed limoges boxes on sale through the "Quarterly." I, too, would be curious to know if anyone has purchased one? Are they as pretty as they look? Was it worth the $$$?

Thanks!

Hello! I try to win one at every regional conference I go to but never win (they usually have a raffle for them)

They are very very lovely. I have seen all 3 up close and really don't know which one I like best.

I was lucky enough to get the trunk box for my wedding. One of my A Phi sisters and bridesmaids had every alpha phi that came to my wedding -probably close to 20- send her money secretly. Then at my reception they all sang lovely girl to me and gave me the present. It was a really special surprise.

Now if I could just get married two more times to get the other two!!! (just kidding!!)

APhiGal: what your sisters did for you was so sweet. What a wonderful surprise!

My best friend and A-Phi sister is getting engaged soon. I was thinking about buying one for her as an engagement gift--a great place to keep that special ring?

I want one for myself too. I love the trunk. It is so cute!

I don't own one yet, but I really like the heart-shaped limoges box. It's really cute.
