Bookish Bonuses

The items in this collection are special as they are hand crafted and made by someone I know and are locally designed and created. 

The Crystalized books are books that have been torn, damaged, been in contact with large amounts of water, have stains or drawings or are in one way or another non salvageable. Rather than throw them away I bring them back to life with a new purpose. These previously damaged books have a new job to brighten up your bookshelf or be used as unique gifts for a fellow book lover. Since each book has its own story and takes the crystals in different ways, no two pieces are alike.

The Paintings are all done by hand by my wonderful mother! Having been an artist since high school, Connie has done several events and won awards. She takes inspiration from anything and everything around her, including books! If you look at a couple of her pieces you might recognize the book she drew her inspiration from. I am so excited to finally have some of her work displayed in our new store. Each painting is unique since they are done individually. Please enjoy her beautiful work.

The wristlets are done by another local artist who is beginning to dabble in resin also. The earrings I find a little all over the place. Custom shops to box locations, anywhere I can find really cute earrings that are book related.
