Hello There
I recently made a very special friend of mine a little RAK and sent it to her in the post as a surprise. I know she liked it and hope you do too!
I took a piece of leather, backed it with some paper. Made some signatures and stitched them in by hand with a slight twist.
Yep! I stitched beads on the spine.
Finished it all off with a leather cord to close the Journal up.
I know my friend liked it and I hope you do.
Have a great weekend.
Hettie
I'm not surprised she liked it - it's absolutely gorgeous. Have you tried selling them? I would imagine they'd go like hot cakes lol!
ReplyDeleteI love that rich colour and your skills in bookbinding/signatures is fantastic! Have a lovely weekend x
This is gorgeous! Looks like it belongs in a posh shop!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful colour and handiwork.
Wow! I love this! For some reason it reminds me of those gorgeous sashes that fasten kimonos! What a lovely gift! Julie Ann xx
ReplyDeleteI happen to know she LOVED it - and why not . . . it's divine.
