Description

Of Time and an IslandThirty years ago, John Keats and his family purchased a two acre island in the St. Lawrence River, at a time when boats were still lovingly crafted of wood and an island could be had for $4,000. Depending on the elements and on their own resourcefulness, the Keats family thrives in the rhythms of island life fishing, learning to navigate the river and read the clouds for weather, acquiring an "Indian" view of time, maintaining a house, several boats,

Thirty years ago, John Keats and his family purchased a two-acre island in the St. Lawrence River, at a time when boats were still lovingly crafted of wood and an island could be had for $4,000. Depending on the elements and on their own resourcefulness, the Keats family thrives in the rhythms of island life-fishing, learning to navigate the river and read the clouds for weather, acquiring an "Indian" view of time, maintaining a house, several boats, and three children on a windswept rock. But more than a book about a single family's adventures, this one is strong witness that we all need islands of our own in the midst of life. Originally published in 1974, Of Time and an Island was chosen as a Book-of-the-Month Club alternate selection.

Quality and affordability
Color: Black
This is one of the best jewelry boxes I have ever had. It is super sleek and practically designed. It sits well on a counter or dresser and blends into the room with ease. The compartments are well designed and lined with velvet that makes your jewelry pieces feel well protected and easily accessed. You are able to organize in a way that works for you. I really liked the quality of the product and though it’s not perfect, it’s worth the price for sure.

Perfect Jewerly Box for anyone
Color: Black
I just love it. I love how many drawers there are, how many sections there are, and how I have the option to hang up necklaces or even bracelets. I showed it to my daughter, and she loved it. It sits perfectly up in my closet on a shelf out of sight. This is exactly what i been looking for. I settled for what I thought I wanted, but this one is the perfect one

Good quality but there are better
Color: Black
Great quality, good amount of storage space. Biggest complaint is that the hooks inside don't really have hooks at all, just these little gold stick like things. Jewelry falls off easily.

Storage!
Color: Black
I love this organizer because it stores a lot, but it does not take up a lot of space. It has a sleek design and looks very nice in my bedroom.
