Sometime I am happy when it rains.....so I can be inside making trouble! I made 3 soldered books. They are layered with fabric, gauze, lace, ribbons, glass, solder and rhinestones. A long project but I do love the results. I hope it rains a little bit longer, I do have something else in the making.


Ciao for now
