This morning I spent about ten minutes watching a heart warming and tear jerking video of soldiers reuniting with their children. It made me want to put
Return to Me in the dvd player, turn the air conditioning up, cuddle under a warm blanket and let the tears flow! However, it's only 9am and these books don't bind themselves, so instead I'm
reminiscing about a book bound for a sweet and thoughtful wife to give to her husband on their 10th anniversary earlier this year.
My client wanted a small 5" x 5" blank book full of deckled edge watercolor pages. She provided the beautiful piece of fabric for the cover as well as some of the silk from her wedding dress for the doublures.
The blank pages were filled with a letter from wife to husband. It's an honor to make books like these that will end up being keepsakes for years to come.
Here's to a day full of sweet things and happy tears!
