Vintage Needlepoint Memo Box with Pencil – Floral Cow Note Pad Holder

Very good vintage condition. Fabric is clean and vibrant. Pencil holder and pencil are intact. Paper stack inside with many blank pages. Please review photos for details.

This vintage memo box is a sweet little desk or kitchen accessory from the country decor era. The lid features a handmade needlepoint panel that reads “In everything give thanks” with a barn, cow, and flower scene, framed with lace. The box is covered in a green floral fabric and opens to reveal a stack of blank memo paper inside. Across the front is a fabric cradle that holds the original matching fabric-covered pencil.

Pieces like this were often kept near the household phone to take messages, write grocery reminders, or leave little notes. It’s both practical, nostalgic AND ADORABLE.
