My wish list starts building throughout the year and then each christmas I get all my family to buy me tons of art/craft books . . . . I love unwrapping them on Christmas day and then devouring them as the weeks go on.

Oh Seth, you've totally made my day. I *love* books! I'm going to read the descriptions on these and decide which ones my library should order. (For the Mixed Media shelf I've been quietly building over the last 8 yrs.!)

Hadn't heard about the Berry book--thanks. Enjoying your date stamp on the book stamp construction, too.

Looks like a pretty good list, I wouldn't mind those titles either. Never can have too many books, can you? xox Corrine

Congratulations! You totally deserve it.

Lynn Cohen said...

How many of these publications are you in? that's what I thought you were telling us, but perhaps not.
Soon for yours however, right, soon?
