Last year, Sis and I put together a custom shadowbox frame featuring a photo of Mom (Daisy Schwartz Burk, 1919-1981) and her twin sister (Dorothy Schwartz, 1919-2001) and a few pieces of their childhood jewelry.
The shadowbox includes an archival envelope on the back, where I've stored paperwork explaining about the twins and their jewelry. Ready to be passed down to future generations!
I just created a FREE WikiTree Free-Space page picturing and describing this heirloom. I included the photo of the twins that is in the center of the shadowbox. The space has plenty of room for photos, other images, and lots of text content. Free Space pages can refer to ancestor profiles on WikiTree, which I've done. I also added the twin jewelry page as a source link on Mom and Auntie Dorothy's Wiki profiles.
Above, a screen capture of part of my page. You can see the entire page here.
I'm so happy to have this heirloom documented beyond my genealogy blog, on a free site where I can share with other relatives.

What a lovely tribute! I'm sure it will be treasured as it's passed down. This is a great way to share with others.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Doris - a lovely tribute.
ReplyDeleteMust look into the Free-space pages on WikiTree...if only there were an 8th day in the week!
That's a really nice way to share these heirloom items more broadly.
