Peace and crosses Book Diorama


I am so pleased with how this book diorama turned out. I started off with drawing loads of peace signs and graduated the colours from peach through to purple. I wasn't sure what to place in the middle amongst the peace signs but I thought a cross would be quite fitting. The edge is lined with small mint coloured crosses and peach/orange ying yangs. I will definitely be making more in this style as I had fun with the colours and imagery. I'm onto my next book now so stay tuned for that update, I will of course show you guys a sneak peek on Twitter and once I have built up a little collection I will add them to my Etsy shop.






Thrifted

I have bought quite a few bits and bobs in the last couple weeks, but these are my best buys. I'm going to a rock and gem show at Newcastle Racecourse this weekend so who knows what treasures will behold my eyes. I will hopefully be able to take photos of the show. But for now enjoy these delights.







First Edition Enid Blyton Book -Thrifted
I hadn't realised it was a first edition as I was flicking through it quickly and saw lots of colourful pages and so grabbed it with both hands.
