As a proud Canadian royalist, I was up this morning watching clips of the Royal wedding online -- I found it surprisingly moving and very, very beautiful. Loved the spring-green trees in the Abbey!
Here's a photo of the whole Kitchen wing this morning:
And here are some tiny books Eva worked on yesterday, from several of the book kits I have lying around. She is amazing with small things -- the smaller the better as far as she's concerned :) I gave her a kit for a 1:144 scale dolls house and she did a great job on it -- now she'll make furniture for it!
The ones in the back are from the Dutch shop Silly Sisters -- their book kit which makes over 60 attractive, non opening books. These have been great for the kids.
The one in the front, with the pages (Eva did such a lovely, precise job on this one, which is very fiddly) is from the first kit of antique books by Paper Minis -- they have lots of lovely things for sale, including stamp albums!

At exactly this time, for the past two years, I've been elbow deep in
Advent Box kits, frantically rushing to complete 25 different themed kits.

It is looking marvellous!
ReplyDeleteNina, I was up early too! I thought the whole event was beautiful.... especially the bride's gown!
ReplyDeleteThe books Evangelista made are lovely too!
I think the wedding of the century has attracted the attention of half the world today! I agree with you, the trees in the abbey were a great idea!
ReplyDeleteI also do mini books ... You saw my etsy shop?
