On Thursday, my friend Alix and I trekked into Berkeley and San Francisco. First stop was the Caning Shop-a MUST for bookbinders (and gourd lovers and basket makers!!!) Oh WOW! Lots of fun stuff. I picked up some more waxed linen thread. I also snagged the last copy of 500 Handmade Books. I have been waiting over a year and a half now for this to come out. I was VERY happy to finally have a copy of it in my hands!!! 
We also went to Kinokuniya in San Francisco where I picked up 3 of the little Japanese books that I adore so much!!
I picked up Ma Deco a Paris.
Chambres d'enfants
Petits appartements a Paris
I was also very inspired after our trip into the city as Alix took me on a tour of her studio. WOW!!! Unfortunately, I didn't have my camera but any artist would be insanely jealous to have a studio like this. It's gorgeous and extremely organized. I LOVED it!!! Thanks Alix for a fun day!!!

I am a wee bit behind on email and all that. Give me a few days to play catch up. I am also having a special visitor in town later at the end of this week so if I disappear, please forgive me! I'll be back!! :)

I am eagerly (note I did not say patiently-har dee har har har) awaiting my copies of:
1000 Artist Journal Pages
LK Ludwig's True Vision
Hopefully they will be here later on this week.
