This version of "My Adventure Book" is actually a custom order. I arranged a trade with my friend Laura, who does great lapidary. (You can see her work in her etsy shop, CabbingRough. I got great stones to use in my jewelry; she gets this book for her young daughter, who loved the movie "Up," which features the book and the idea behind it. I've not seen the movie, but apparently the purpose of the book is to write down the adventures you want/hope/intend to have in your Adventure Book.
This is a longstitch bound blank book, similar to my other leather journals, but it is larger and square, at Laura's request. The letters on the cover were colored with permanent markers. The straps around the fore edge are stitched to the back and close in front with Velcro dots. The coins on top are decorative only, a couple of old Mexican coins I've had for years.
I hope Laura's daughter loves it.
