tiny books for friends |
In the meantime I'm making little gifty's. I came across directions for tiny wee books on Pinterest (oh that time sucker!) and made 3 of them which I personalized with a little poem for each of the gals I went to Vermont with, along with images of some of my paintings which I resized on the computer so they were only about 1 inch. I made the one above for my pal AEmilia. It's hard to get an idea of it's scale in the picture, but it is only 1 3/4 inch high!

FANTASTIC post Sally! How very lucky your friends are to receive such special little gifts from you! I'm sure they will treasure them forever. And as for the cloth book you made for your granddaughter - WOW!!! What a labour of love and so beautifully done. She will be absolutely smitten with it - as will your daughter. What a very clever critter you are! I can almost feel the joy that you must have had while making these heartfelt gifts.
ReplyDeleteAnd no wonder you are so proud of your brother and his partner - what a wonderful thing for them to do. It must be very satisfying and meaningful for them to spend their holidays this way.
i feel like making gifts is more for me than the recipients...what i discover when I create them, is that I'm filled with joy during the process.
Deletethanks for your delighted comments Wendy!
Love this post, and the beautiful gifts you've made. I'm more than a tad proud of you! Love the present for your granddaughter!
