Books

This is an art brooch.

Have you worn a good book lately?


This is my Family photo album.

These are my Charming Little Books. They can be worn as pins or pendants.

This book is made with Makin’s Clay.

Here is a picture of the book open even the pages are clay.

This is what I will be teaching at Euro Clay Carnival 2008.
This is my newest book My Art Journal. I found the Bind-It-All binding system at CHA in January. I started using it a couple of months ago and I just love it. I am working on more.

This book is my Pear Tag Art Book it was the First Place Winner of AMACO’s Craft Porcelain Designer Challange 2004.
Here is another book I did with the Bind-It-All. This one has a piece of 1 1/2″ x 1 1/2″ Memory Glass imbedded in the cover. I have also applied dried ferns from my yard to the cover.
This book is the size of a Slide mount. This book is made entirely of Kato Polyclay. (Except for the wire binding and the metal dragonfly charm.)

wowser!! are you good
—love the art journal in particular. and i have the favorite things book; it’s one of *my* favorite things .
i’m curious though: what in the world is Bind-It-All about? i’ve never made a book because i don’t like the idea of working on an old one and the newer techniques confuse and confuddle me to no end. but your stuff looks both professional and yet still has that artistic feel to it.
BTW, i’m in Canada so that may make a difference . i sort of live in the middle of nowhere when i think of my years in Jacksonville, FL.
keep up the great output!
cheers,
Corinne
