Custom Books
I love lacy fall leaves. I collect them and use an old book press like this one to flatten them for later use.
I also hoard great paper, raffia and beautiful twigs. (Rocks too, but I haven't figured out how to use them yet---maybe a cut-out with a suspended rock.........)
The cover of this book is old photograph mounting albums. I ran across a bunch of these, dismantled them and cut them to fit the pages. The pages, which aren't shown, but are beige and have the same texture as the cover, are off-cuts from a publisher.
The second book is made the same way, but I had to figure out how to attach the bare twig to the back.
