My Art's Desire has such a great eye for things, and an envible hand with mixed media crafts.
She makes these tender little books covered in fabric, embellished with small posies and a silken ribbon closure. Meant to encourage and uplift, they are the best sort of gift I can imagine. So wonderfully full of grace and delicacy.

Her work extends to pieces like this as well:
I admire her eye for detail, as with these humble little weed-blossoms:
And her gifts obviously translate to the care she takes in decorating her home:

Thanks, Sue for the photo permissions. I hope to see you blogging up a storm again real soon!
Laurie,
ReplyDeleteGolly gee whiz, what a dose of encourgement to read your post. Bless your heart. I poked around for a while and have to say that your command of the written word is outstanding. I would like to plant the seeds, or perhaps water the ones already sown and ENCOURAGE you to get started on "that book"....!
Thanks again for the kind words.
