Home Altered Board Book






A sweet friend of mind turned 40 today and I wanted to surprise her with an altered book. She loves antiques, decorates her house beautifully and always welcomes friends and family warmly to her home so a house shaped book seemed particularly suitable for the occasion. I used copies of vintage photos from my collection and gave them a whimsical feel with hats, crowns and wings and added a quotation about "home" to each page. I'll feature the pages separately for a few days.
