♥ many people, myself among them, feel better at the mere sight of a book.

although typically i would be appalled at the idea of destroying a book

in the name of art- i have to say these painstakingly intricate carvings

 by julia strand of hokey stokes! prove to be a very worthy cause.

all collages are pressed safely beneath a sheet of glass,

and can be hung on the wall! love!
