CREATIVE COLLABORATION

Last month, I was fortunate enough to be part of a joint effort to create a truly OOAK gift! Author Suzan Lauder, had just recently released her book "Alias Thomas Bennett" and wanted to celebrate this by creating a truly special gift for her friends in the publishing world who helped make it all happen. It was her vision that created these truly whimsical pieces:

- from the adjustable colored pencil bracelet by Miceart to the polymer clay mini book charm from Book Beads - all were inspired by her written word! The perfect eye candy for any bibliophile, wouldn't you say?

A (Demigod) Family...Extended

 

To all fans of Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson series: the wait is over. The completer set with three new book beads is finished. After weeks of painstakingly miniaturizing these books and making sure all the sharp details come out, we now have the complete series (as shown below):

 Whether you mix & match or choose the same pair, it's bound to be an eye catcher!

One of these things is not like the others...

YAY! I finally got mine! THE SCOTTISH PRISONER. My very own! No one else's but MINE. It arrived a few days ago and I meant to take pictures, but I've been swamped in the shop. Errrr... ummm, I really am working on your requests, folks (in between catching phrases & snippets of the book. Which is good. Because then, I can stretch it out over the break). What tome are you curling up with over the holidays?
 

Slainte!

A SHARED CREATION FOR HARRY 

Harry Potter, that is.  One powerful literary figure that has inspired artisans to create. Now "jointly".

Presenting the Harry Potter felted scarf bookmark by Laurie:

Hand knit from Peruvian wool (click to enlarge and see texture), it is adorned with one of my Harry Potter book beads (The Sorcerer's/Philosopher's Stone).

I use "jointly" loosely, since all the creating was done by Laurie. (I simply gave her permission to use the book bead). It is a beautiful stocking stuffer for your Potter fan! What are you waiting for? Head on to her shop,  Do You Like My Hat? for details.
