Last Piece Before School Starts


I have had such a lovely holiday seeing my family for a week and being able to just veg out for another week creating. I bought a beautiful book called Semiprecious Salvage by Stephanie Lee. Her projects are lovely and while I don't have access to my own soldering equipment, I was still able to create a piece by adapting to what I do have. I created this piece today using the brass sheet I cut up and used the Scrumptious Potato Chip patina recipe with to create the effects. I then made 3 signatures using an old dictionary and bound them with wire. I finished the binding using spirals and added a little charm to the front. This book is really wonderful.
