Farewell Wintertime

Posted on March 10, 2015 by sproutspress

Day 154/365

An ode to the end of winter. I’ve pulled together my most wintery, icy blue and white items as a farewell to the season of snow and freezing temperatures. Mostly because it’s time for spring, but also because I love the beauty of winter.

Clockwise from the top left:
Indigo Starburst Journal hand dyed paper in indigo, Wintertime Bookbinding Kit makes 2 notebooks, Mini Pocket Notes Journal hardcover journal that fits in your hand as well as your bag, White Linen Pouch screenprinted with Thistles in aqua, Navy Watercolour Sketchbook with ribbon bookmark, Quick Notes Notebook handpainted in Indigo and Silver, Paper Moon Book Earrings made from reclaimed papers, Starburst Journal in blue and white Florentine pattern.
