Before Pinterest there was this.
Good old fashion scrap books. I had heaps of scrapbooks when I was a kid. I would cut out inspirational pictures, fashion shots, favourite celebrities and diliegently paste them in my books. I would even attempt at drawing some designs (although not very good).....but at least it gave me the creativity I needed and help me realise my love for sewing and craft.
When a lovely lady gifted these to me for my birthday this year, I fell in love with scrap booking, doodling, and note-taking all again. And who wouldn't? Three gorgeous art books, all covered in the most beautiful fabrics....
...and with perfectly embroidered titles on them, I can ensure that all of my dreams, inspiration and ideas are safely recorded and never far away should I need reminding.
Now, I'm off for a cuppa and some old fashion pinning

ooooo, love, love, love.
ReplyDeleteThose books are beautiful. And I certainly envy the embroidery on them. It's perfect!
These are gorgeous Brenda and so beautifully made. It's been a while since I've done cutting and gluing but I think it's nice to have something in front of you look at and turn the pages of. Enjoy your pinning. x

ReplyDeleteOh they are divine
