Three Little Books

Those book parts I readied last week have now been made into books.

This first one is 8.5 cm x 11 cm.  Board, gold leaf, beads, leather and metal elements. 30 double sided antiqued pages.



And it opened.  It has a beaded page marker but I don't seem to have photographed that.

This one is the same with silver leaf and some turquoise chips added.

And you can see the page marker here.

And finally this one is the same size again with a mix of metal leaf.


Open again.

They are all going into the Dorset Art Weeks box and if I don't sell them then they can go onto Etsy.  All the money from small items like these will be going towards the Dorset and Somerset Air Ambulance and Combat Stress charities so hopefully someone will like them!

I bought myself one of those photographic tent things quite cheaply to try and help with my appalling photographic skills.  These were all taken with my point and shoot on auto, it certainly evens out the tones and glare! It even came with some little lights.  Very pleased with it.

Have a great weekend!
