A couple of books...
I think I actually made these books more than two months ago, but I forgot to post pictures. Both covers are from my Monet calendar.
The first was made for a trade with rontti (by the way, you should check out her lovely handmade books!). I tried adding some beads to the binding but I didn't like the final effect very much- I'm not sure whether the problem is that they're too big or that the colours don't match.
Sorry for the crappy pictures- I took them at night right after finishing the book & I forgot to take better ones in the morning.
