Quotes for The Treasure Chest Project’s Treasure Chests


In a previous post, I mentioned Proverbs 20:15:

“Gold there is, and rubies in abundance, but lips that speak knowledge are a rare jewel.”

Inspiring Quotes are Rare Jewels, and so these are perfect to place in The Treasure Chest Project’s Treasure Chests. 

When these rare jewels are found, they will certainly bring a smile to the finder! 

Besides the Quote, you will add TTCP’s Contact information (so they might let us know it was found).   I also add a ‘lucky penny’ or other small type of ‘Treasure’, but that is not necessary.

Most times it is the Discovery that is treasured…… and so what is given inside does not need to be anything extravagant. 

Now it can be….there have been some amazing ‘Treasures’ hidden out there.  Often clues are given to these. 

If you want to hide a Treasure Chest with Clues, for The Treasure Chest Project, You can!

It will require a little more attention and participation on your part, but it can be done.  Simply share your ‘Treasure Hunt’ on the TTCP Facebook Group or on the MW Forum in the TTCP section.  Then follow along with those out hunting for it.  Be sure to announce the Treasure Chest has been found if you receive word of it being found.   These are lots of fun to do…..

I’ll be doing more of these once things open up a bit more…..

Until then, I’ll hide ‘Treasure Chests’ with rare jewels and other small treasures to give smiles to random finders!

Here are some Quotes.  (Print the PDF off for easy use. You cut the snippet of Quote out, and laminate it with heavy tape for protection of the elements while it waits to be found)
