We are talking about "treasure boxes":
The insides were hollow so you could put stuff in them, see?:

Oh! I forgot about those! They were beautiful! Thanks carolinakid & Disney Duster!!!
Going back to the notebooks, I was always tempted to get more, but I regretfully didn't. I also wish I would've picked up a second Sleeping Beauty because I refuse to write in it. It seems like it was a good enough idea to bring back as notebooks. Maybe in a few years they'll return in some way to ShopDisney?

Treasure Boxes! That’s exactly right! I’d forgotten the name... I told you it was 20+ years ago! Aren’t they so beautiful?
And the Cinderella one and the Queen’s Spell Book are just as stunning! Now THOSE are the kind of collectibles I can get into! Thanks, Duster!

Haha, you're welcome singerguy04 and carolinakid. And yes, they are beautiful. Carolinakid, did the Queen's spell book say "Poisons" and have the poisoned apple recipe?

Yes, Duster, I believe so. To be honest, they are packed away and in our basement (climate controlled, of course

) from when my boyfriend and I moved into our current house in 2013, so I haven’t seen them in quite some time. Maybe this will motivate me to finally unpack them and put them on a shelf in our den. I think the page when you open the book says, “One taste of the Poisoned Apple

and the Victim’s eyes will close forever in the Sleeping Death”.
Or something very similar.
It’s gorgeous.
