HANDMADE JOURNAL BACK

What a find!!!!

I think nothing thrills an artist more than finding art related things at a bargain price. This was more than a bargain, it was a steal almost.

A neighbor had raved to me about a new just built Goodwill/Thrift store that had opened here in Grand Rapids.

Finally I decided to take a look thinking of frames etc....Imagine when I found this incredibly beautiful Handmade Journal ...made to perfection, and in like new condition!!

It is filled with 40 half pages of various Oriental papers and is really a sight to behold....The camera does not do it justice.

At this point it seems too lovely to paint in...Every bit of it is handmade, even the little fastener is a twig carved from a tree, and the flowers back and front are real....just gorgeous!!

Could you ever guess a price of ONE DOLLAR & NINETY NINE CENTS?????
