I thought I’d make something using an old bookcover…
A good end of the day… January 30, 2012
…As I walked passed the bed, to switch on the light on my nightstand, something drops on the bed:
a tiny piece of confetti…
Thank you colleagues!
On another note:
Just this evening, someone I DON’T KNOW has ordered one of my notebooks!
What an excellent end of the day!! Yeehah!
Made… November 21, 2011
This one worked out quite o.k. :
My first two-tone leather book.
With pagemarker.
Watched… October 10, 2011
We watched yesterday:
Cat on a Hot Tin Roof
With Elizabeth Taylor and Paul Newman.
Wow. Classic film, with a very pretty Taylor and a very handsome Newman.
I don’t think a film like this (pretty static, based on a Tenessee Williams play), with two major actors will ever be made again.
Homemade:
I improved my self-bound diary!
It now has a pocket and an elastic band! This should last a year or two!
In the press… September 26, 2011
I put something in the press…
Can’t wait to see it!
The press is for books what an oven is to baking: the magic moment!
I made a brown leather binding for a new diary, and I am so curious to see how it turns out, I’m keeping my fingers crossed!
Home made… May 23, 2011
I finished some recent projects…
A photo album! 
And a blank book with the use of washi tape. 
Both with nice retro papers.
More pictures under “home made”
Reading…
Anagrams by Lorrie Moore
Book Safe May 8, 2011
I finished my book safe last week.
A book with a great looking binding has been turned into a safe.
The paper was cut away and then a generous layer of glue was applied on the inside.
The book had no chance of ever been read again.
(otherwise I would not have ‘killed’ it!)
It was a text on politics at the start of the 20th century…. in French.
