I got to finish seven small (4.5cmX3.5cm) riveted silver-plate metal books with inspirational words stamped on the middle page. The photo above is looking down on the riveted pages on the dining table through one of Fiona's flower arrangements before taking them to the workshop for grinding, polishing and opening.
Books - ground and polished; opening the books; and seven books opened on the anvil. I use an oyster knife and a bone paper folder to open the books in the vice.
The seven books on timber.
Two different takes on a mini-poster for Christmas - about calmness - maybe helped with wine - who knows.
The posters were a bit of fun. I love the blue ink - you can't see it but the posters are printed on pale relaxing blue 300gsm paper.
Love the poster! Those little books are great.
ReplyDeleteamazing that the bone folder can withstand the pressure of opening the books ...
