Tiny Books

Remember these tiny books? It has been too long since I've made one so I got to work this weekend and finished a whole new batch of tiny book covers. Each little cover was painted by hand and no two are alike. As soon as I finish them they'll go into my shop.

There will be tiny books of birds, flowers & butterflies :)
