Karyn and I are pleased to announce that we will be involved in the next Halifax Crafters “Spring Fling”.
We’ll have lots of lovely things to add to your spring wardrobe. We are also working on some great new decore items and lamp designs.This fair will be our chance to unveil some of them.
Karyn just showed me some of her new book designs and I think they are really classy. So much care go in to Karyn’s work, I can’t wait to see the new ones completed. They are precious spaces to entrust your dreams and pen your thoughts, they also make a lovely gift. She uses acid free papers and high quality materials so they will stand the test of time.
I’ve always appreciated a good book for their weight and tactile nature. I also appreciate the intimate relationship we have with them as places for the self to dwell. Journals and sketchbooks are such useful, practical objects that their almost magical ability to be imprinted on is sometimes overlooked. They are time capsules, a record of the past, change and things worth remembering.
I have books and scraps of paper from relatives long past, they are some of my most treasures objects. My mother started jotting down little stories and happenings for me in a book when I was a baby, I cherish it now. A book of family stories is a very precious heirloom object, something that can be handed down over generations. After all it really is the thought that counts.
