SHOP UPDATE

PERIDOT
I just added LOTS of new mini books, art, and prints to the shop… lots.
Go look! =)

Rainbow Book

Hellooo!  Here is one of my new products featured over at my Etsy shop, Peridot.  What do you think?  I really like the bright colors against the white for some reason… the paper is really pretty too.

The best part about them (in my opinion anyway… ) is their SIZE.  They’re little =)
Cute, right??  I hope [...]

Visual Journal

Remember these book covers I made?  Well I have been doing some work on the pages.  I only have one page finished so far (but a lot more in the works) so I thought I’d share a couple pictures of it… hopefully I’ll have more soon (I have this habit where I don’t finish things.  [...]

Heart Book

Just a few pictures of a book I made:
It measures about 4.75 x 3.5 inches, so it’s little and cute, and has 32 pages.  One day when I open my Etsy shop (it’s going to happen, I promise… hopefully soon) I think I might sell something like this.  I love how small it is and [...]

Hollowed Altered Book

In addition to the visual journal and the silhouette/star technique, we are also teaching the Saturday School class to make these hollowed out altered books.
The idea of an altered book can be a little sensitive, and it was funny when one of the students asked if she could read the book she was given to [...]

Book Covers

Last week I was about to start working on the book covers for the sample visual journal I’m making, when my supervising teacher opened the door to the art supply room and showed me her giant collection off all things art/collage related.  And said that I could use whatever I wanted.
oh.my.
I have never really been [...]

February

Okay so here’s what’s gonna happen: I am blogging every day in February.  EVERYDAY.  (Yeah yeah, I chose the shortest month, so what?)  So get ready to party.
I’m teaching a visual journaling and bookmaking class for the next several weeks, and the picture above is of the sample book I’m working on and I’m going [...]

Collage

I have folders and folders on my computer of random pictures I’ve found online and saved… they’re all really random and I have absolutely no idea where I found any of them (which is why there’s no credit… if you know, let me know!)  They’ve just been sitting in these folders since I found them, [...]

Day 30!!!

For my LAST project (I know… I can’t believe I finished either!) I made a little book of ALL of the projects I did.  I didn’t want to photograph each page though… you’ve already seen the pictures… so instead I compiled all 30 images into a little collage.
I seriously cannot believe I did it, every [...]

InTangible

And now I present: my tiny books, in their tiny little case.

Remember this post?  You can find the final product HERE in the gallery.
