at long last, an update











So, since I started this life has become a bit crazy for me. I'm learning to adjust.

I have finally done something with all of those wonderful charms I received back from the MMCA charm swap. I'm not one for wearing chunky bracelets, so I made an art journal with all those funky charms hanging from the spine of the book.

The book is an "altered book". It began as a boring old math text book, I gutted the pages, re-covered the book with Italian paper, bookcloth, and ribbon. Next I punched holes and set eyelets in the spine, then sewed in the pages. I attached the charms with jump rings.
