You can see one of the miniature books being glued, the others are already installed in the mini book case that I've had for years and never new what to do with. Plenty of room for some more! There's also another book on my desk that was cut with the Eileen Hull Tiny Book die - though it looks positively giant next to my miniature ones! Let me show you my miniature library - so far I have made seven books. Here's a download of the covers I used courtesy of Thicketworks. I just printed the covers, reinforced them with cardboard, tea dyed some paper strips for the inside pages and accentuated the covers with some gold ink and gilding wax.
Here's a closer look at my not-so-tiny book as well. This was cut from grey board and covered with an old metallic gelli print and embellished with gilding wax. The 'Map of the World" strip is an off-cut from a Dufex print that I framed as a present for hubs for Father's Day from our son. We printed off a card from the internet to go with it - as a quick fix.
I also have a new addition to my plant stash. I have since managed to nearly kill it with TLC (too much or the wrong kind of plant feed?) but it's recovering nicely in its new position in the flower bed outside. I learn as I go along!
Happy WOYWW - stay cool on this hottest day of the year so far - although it's said to get even hotter tomorrow. Luckily it won't last long - a couple of days of this is all I can bear. It's quite pleasant in the house still - glad I don't have to go anywhere. xx
