More projects from my fab,1920s wallpaper, lucky find! And hoarding pays off.

This paper is just lovely, isn't it? I've enjoyed working with it, and couldn't resist making some more pieces with it.

For about 10 years, I'd been hoarding an address book that had a compartment for notes, knowing it could be something someday- it had good bones.  I finally figured out this use for it, making the compartment at the bottom into a treasure box.

Then turning the address book part into a book, by demolishing it, throwing away the pages, and using the remnants to reassemble into a book.

I knew it was worth saving that old address book for years and years! Now I have vindication to continue hoarding  stockpiling supplies that could someday be something, right???

This is the back of the book.

And here is the inside. The pages are blank.

This is the interior of the box.

Yummy, yummy Good Stuff was used throughout.

The book and treasure box are both in the Boutique. As are a few more packs of the wallpaper.  The scrap packs sold out over the weekend, but the art journal includes a mini scrap pack to use in finishing the book.
