Yesterday, librarians from my local library
asked if I could donate a handmade book.
It would be the center piece on their holiday wreath.

I went home and reviewed my ooks and
decided to make a new one. I wanted
it to be vibrant, golden, and fun.

| Once upon a time . . . , |
Based on children's fairy tales, my book
began, "Once upon a time . . . "
The cover and endpapers were created with
gold leaf on kozo paper and embossed
with silver and red mica.
I delivered the finished book to the library this afternoon,
20 hours later.
