Echoes From The Valley

By Rob Roy McGregor Parrish

1884

What I Am Working On Today-Poetry Book Re-Do

I think dear friends there is a studio

plan at last in my head

Yes...I have made some sketches so that

things keep on track...lol

This week...A big step towards the new bookshelves

I so want.

Having a Bead-Book and Button sale

in my folks front yard.

Ha...Yes their yard.

Mine is too hot and the traffic is much

different over in my parents neighborhood.

My dear dad...bless him for letting me

have the sale...Is taking advantage and

putting some of his fantastic finds out too.

We both are De-stashing I guess

Lots of books are going from the studio

one's I have collected thinking I would do something

anything with them.

But alas..time runs fast and they are still here

Last night while making dinner

one of the books called to me and I had to do something with it.

Ah ha....

I love the etchings Jill has been digging out

and I have been wanting to make something with them.

This is a book is called

The World's One Thousand Best Poems
(In Ten Volumes)

Volume 4

1929

An ok book...read much and loved at one time

but not very pretty

So...I have dressed it up some.

Still to add...some postcards inside

maybe a short letter from one friend to the other

tucked into the pages

perhaps a dried flower.

Then it will be ready to go.

I will have it at the garage sale..

Just for fun to see if it will sell.

It felt soooo good to make something-

what with kids and camping and other summer stuff

my creative self has had to take a rest.

It is good to know she is still in there..lol

Have a great day everyone!!!!
