Angels in time for Christmas
This year has been incredibly trying due to the long reaching, and seemingly never ending, effects of the pandemic. USPS had become slower, things are lost more often when shipped, people are so paranoid they are absconding with other peoples packages left by delivery drivers, even IF the are captured on the home they areContinue reading “Angels in time for Christmas”
A Spindle Splintered

This ability to recycle books into beautiful pieces of art allows for there to be a little more light and lifeContinue reading “A different kind of candle”
Falling In Paints
When all the words have been read, and the book is thrown down and forgotten, before the trash man has a chance to haul someones dreams away, there is a way to not just give a book a second chance, but also to breathe new life into it. This is but a few ways booksContinue reading “Falling In Paints”
