Engrossed in old books



Hollidays are time for relaxing. I´ve been engaged in making old books..and finding out, how they actually look. Some labels on the christmas presents inspired me and provided material for the mauve and gold books. Then I found a blue piece of old paper and started to study the few real old books, that I own. I love the old Aladdin book of Adam Oehlenschläger, The pages are printed gold in the ends. It made me work a little bit further with the Aladdin theme, so I added the table and the other stuff. Of course I´ll need an oil lamp too!

  3. Wow... once again a beautiful tableau from you :0) The books are great (can I use a term as great when I refer to tiny things) And the table...another reminisens from "old days". I have one too. I really love the "amber-look" with the tall bottle and the jars, and especially the lion...
