New Start......New Lifestyle.....New Freedom



Treadmills
I have started my own journal.........this is new for me.....all the journals I have made so far have been for the grandchildren:) Anyway....I thought I would share the first few pages. You saw the cover awhile ago.....with the metal key cover inserted into the cover. The books was quite a find at an estate sale. I couldn't believe how beautiful it was....patina and all:)

Good for you!!! - journals have been my best friends for years - you can tell them absolutely anything, and they are always willing to go wherever you want to go - these pages are lovely - I hope that you will share more.

I have some new moleskines coming with me to Omega and an old accounts book with a leather binding from the 1850's. I'm not sure which will gather experiences from the Nick Bantock workshop - will have to feel it out. I also received Griffin and Sabine as a gift from my Mother.

Thanks for your interest and enthusiasm about the workshop and Boone - he's something -

xox - eb.

Linda,
These pages are wonderful. So great that you are doing a journal just for you. Hope you will continue to share pages from it. Would love to see the cover, too. Sounds beautiful!

I love your work - so inspiring!

Haven't had a chance yet to get to the bookstore for the Somerset with the baby album in it. I need to make an artist date for myself and go soak up the inspiration!
