Do It Yourself : Time Capsule


A man in France ordered that his home be sealed for 100 years after his death. The home was recently reopened and serves as a fascinating view into the lives of the French in the early 1900’s. While we find the idea of an entire house functioning as a time capsule we don’t happen to have an extra home to spare.

Instead, we made a box sized time capsule and filled it with personal mementos, business cards, and questionnaires that covered all the details of our lives in that moment. We buried it in a garden and plan to open it in 5 years. It will be so much fun to see what has changed, what has come to fruition, and what has stayed the same. Here’s what you’ll need to make one yourself:
WHAT/ WHERE:
French House à BBC News
Bags à Ziploc
Markers à Sharpie
