I adore this music box, sometimes, I lay in bed late at night and look at it, and open the box and watch the clown ride on the carousel horse. I don't usually like clowns but I love this vintage one. Music boxes remind me of being little, of apple juice cartons and burning my feet on hot pavement in California. Of corn dog smell, of cotton candy that stung my lips, sweetly. Of caramel apples that hurt my teeth.

my sister brought a beautiful silver jewelry box which played music and had a ballerina twirling inside... but she took out the music box part so it wouldn't play anymore. that made me sad. i want to buy a musical jewelry box and every time i open it i'll think about the a.a.milne cassette tapes that i loved as a child (& still do). between each poem they played music box tunes, drum beats, bird calls, ocean sounds... ♥

Adorable. I too love music boxes. I always wanted one, but sadly, have yet to encounter one. I'll have to look very hard....

Lovely picture... I love that carousel. It reminds me of two of what I think are the best photos I've taken, which you helped inspire. You might remember them...
