Welcome back and a warm welcome to new subscribers. Thanks to everyone for their support. It's been a while since I worked on my altered book. I wasn't entirely satisfied with the end result,I felt the autumn trees image was too bright. In the thumbnail you can see instead a leaf with a strip of ledger paper. I noticed afterwards that the ledger paper entry was for September so that felt right!...

    I tend to steer clear of things that are too fundy (I hope that’s okay to admit) but yours is not; it is *very* lovely and inspired by some of the best historic religious art. It’s nice to see poor, brave St. Joan in there.

    Oh my. This is amazing. And the box is perfect for the book. It just 'fits'. It's an amazing collection you've made for the whole project. Wasn't it lovely to tuck all those things in the box that was just waiting for its purpose. Amazing--job well done. To the cute pencil holder to the specimen envelope to the added bits and the writing board. I have a zipped waxed canvas bag that's been waiting for a journal. It will call to me when the journal is created. (Leastwise I HOPE it will!! LOL) Thank you for the lovely slide show of all this goodness!

    This is just lovely. I've admired the Edith Holden pages for some time now. Not an easy find in the US and yes, I realize they make prints of her pages--which somehow doesn't feel right to me. But I did score The Consise British Flora in Colour which some library got rid of (their loss is my gain!). I'm thinking maybe I could give a try at this altered file folder in a smaller scale and fit it inside the book I'm making to gift a gal at my work site. Yours turned out just lovely!

      Thanks so much Mel. Apologies if this was written ages ago it's only just come through! I am having a rest and rethink about my channel at the moment. Even in the U.K Edith has become so sought after. When l have been on Ebay l have seen some quite rare items such as lamps from the U.S. You are so fortunate to get the concise flora, how lovely. Here it is sometimes 60 pounds on Amazon. Crazy!

      Just checking back to see how life is treating you and if you've been able to find clarity about the 'what to do' on the channel. I can only imagine the amount of work and worry that goes into creating and sharing videos on the world wide web--and I have nothing but the upmost respect for those of you brave souls that give it a go and check in with yourselves to make sure it's 'worth it' for you at this given moment in time. I could understand wanting to back away from it with the time and investment it must take. And the energy--my goodness, some folks make multiple videos a week. I"m in awe and truly appreciate the efforts and energy but I want to tell them it's just not necessary to work oneself ragged. Plenty of videos out there--I can't make time in my life to WATCH all of them at the rate they're posted.... Bless their hearts for that kind of commitment though!! Right!! Enough of a ramble from me. Just curiously waiting to see where you land and totally will respect any decision. As the recipient of one of your works of art I hope you continue to create treasures you can share with others. Rest assured they ARE shown off and treasured and loved because of the time and effort and energy and the YOU that you put into them. Stay safe and well!!! Mel

      Hi Mel, thanks so much, how lovely of you to say this. It makes me very happy to hear this, and it's so encouraging. I hope life is treating you well. I do feel a bit guilty for suddenly stopping my channel as l loved filming and especially doing asmr videos.It just didn't feel quite 'me'. Also l was spending far too much time on social media and decided that it wasn't good for me. I know what you mean...l don't know how some creators find the time and energy to do one or more videos a week. I think l might do a video once a month...l do like booktube,so have considered doing book review and haul videos. Thanks for watching and encouraging creativity, Mel, best wishes to you stay safe too 🙂
