  2. your work is wonderful.
    i collect musty books and old paper and fabric and little blue eggshells and great danes and beachglass and linen and old photos, any image that is aged, anything that makes me gasp and want to look at it forever..........

  3. Thank you both. I am with you chasing lightning bugs when it comes to collecting.I collect 19th century clothes hangers, baby clothes, collars, lockets and photos. This list goes on and on. I'm heading out on a collecting expedition today in fact. Also I think your name has just inspired a new piece:) More about that later.

  4. These books are brilliant Cindy!! I'm a cataloger from way back (my Ringling library days) and I do always fall for a collection...especially in combination with the book form!!! Love these...you are going strong!

  5. Wow, what a treasure! That's really a BEAUTIFUL thing.

    I collect vintage suitcases & corks from bottles of wine or champagne shared with friends which i inscribe with the dates and names of the special evening or event.

    LOVE your work & your blog!
    Friendly Greetings,
    Shelley.

  6. I collect debts! Joke. I have quite a few of my own though. If I didn't I'd be your best customer. I love your work so much and this book is beautiful. The colours particularly. You constantly inspire me Cindy. Thank you.
