several years ago i travelled to italy with my family--i took many photos, ate lots of yummy food, walked and walked and walked and treated myself to little trinkets in each town. the paper shops in rome are so wonderful, and so expensive! i am drawn to tiny things obsessively so what i emerged from the little shop with happened to be the least costly items and the tiniest--two little handmade books. i recently revisited these wee tomes, still encased in the shop's adorable bag, because of a mixed media project that i am working on--a tiny ship's log (or travel journal, not sure which yet) is what i need to make.

I haven't made a book in ages! If I made another one, you would probably have to remind me how to do it again. Looking at these books you are making makes me want to make them again, too!
