Description
Just finished this one this afternoon.A small one (again) although not as small as the EarthyMini!
9cm wide x 8.5cm tall x 2.5cm thick.
Springback, raised cords, 3 part closure.
Heavy, hand-stained watercolour paper, 54ish pages, torn and gold edges.
Pigskin leather cover, hand-dyed. Recessed bits in hand-painted sculpey, crystal (green aventurine and Paua shell cabochon), and wood.
EDIT: Thankyou for the DD, I'm so honoured!
Also, there seems to be some confusion here that I've noticed. Not just with this book but also with others. I do not COVER pre-made books. All of my books are bound from scratch, in the Springback style. For those interested in how this process works, you can see the binding of one of my larger books on my website, here: [link]
Love!

I guess it depends on the Faery, perhaps.

Thankyou! I often think people don't realise just how much effort goes into a well made book, so it's nice to get recognition from someone who does
Thanks.

Wow.... I'm stunned. That is one of the more beautiful things I've seen on this site. I can imagine owning a commissioned piece like that would truly be an honor. I know you mentioned this piece is already spoken for and not for sale, but do you think you could message me and let me know what you would charge for doing another piece similar to this? I'm sure it's more than this starving artist could afford, but I'm dying to know just in case.
Finally, a book that my custom made pens would feel worthy of writing in.

I don't know if 'atient' is the right word, hehe. Perhaps tenacious, or stubborn would be closer to the truth
Well, the truth is that I love it, and it's FUN.

Wow.... I want one! It looks just the sort of book a wizard would use to write his potion ingredients in... Or a steampunk sky captain would keep as his log book. Great work!
