Sewn Junk Journal Revisited

I'm still working on this -making it ready, pretty and usable for the winner.
The draw is still open (closing march 15'th)
I would be happy-happy if more people could join!! :)













The inside is changing day by day...
I want it to look pretty and to make some good space for notes, sketches or whatever you like to put inside there.

But the cover is still the same...


I'm trying to make it pretty and usable for the winner.

Comment on one of my blogposts about this journal and join the draw!! :P
One lucky winner will be picked on march 15'th.
Good luck!

Beautiful mail for me :D

10 Things

1: Homemade bookstrings


2: Current page in a small journal




3: Altered Book Journal (am planning to make the cover nice too)




4: Page inside my altered book journal (lying on my desk to dry)




5: A print I bought from iHannas etzy-shop (hanging on my wall)

I love this owl collage!!



6: Small plate bought at a thrift store in town because I loved the color




7: Mirror bought in Ghana (with Adinkra symbol)

Siamese crocodile: "sharing the same stomach -yet they fight for food"



8: My first try at woodburning (done on wood not made for woodburning, cause I could never get my hands on the "real stuff")



9: Something I found in the attic (it belonged to my mom)



10: Messy Vision Board

Wouldn't it be fun to journal in this one?
