Day 33-Quotation Book Pin
More on a small scale, a little book with a pin back so you can wear it on a lapel, a scarf, a hat. It's a real book with accordion pages glued in with the words from a brief inspirational poem glued onto the pages. The words read... "Reach high, for stars lie hidden in your soul. Dream deep, for every dream precedes the goal."

I love that quote! Do you know the author? I found your blog via Epbot today. I've been fascinated with your project. I have a bunch of children's books in the form of F&Gs (folded and gathered sheets) that I would love to bind someday, and this has inspired me to do it, so my children can enjoy the books. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThe quotation is by Pamela Vaull Starr. I should have put that into the original post. And yes, it's one of my favorites too.
