    I am so amazed at the work you do. You are a dreamer, a painter, an engineer and a draftsman. Many years ago, at least 50, I was a little girl living in Southern Michigan. I knew a family who had 3 boys. Each of those boys had your talent except for the youngest one. The youngest boy had talent too he could get you into so much trouble and he eventually stole my heart. I had three brothers too and so for several years we were friends, riding bikes, climbing trees, fishing and hiking. We would be friends for several more years and then my family moved out of state. Everytime I see someone who can visualize and creat things the way that you can I am reminded of my early life in Michigan and the magical summers of friendship and also puppy love that two kids can share. Thank you for sharing your talent with us.😊

    Amazing work and I feel your pain with the books! Made a "fantasy library" book nook for a friend for last Christmas and basically turned it into an assembly line where I similarly glued printouts onto strips of scrap plywood and then ran those through a scroll saw and cleaned up the cuts. When you have to make over 200 books, you naturally end up with an assembly line project. Glued those books onto sized strips of thick paper and then glued those blocks onto the shelves.

But it probably doesn’t make a very big difference, so just go with what suits you best! :)

    Brilliant! Gave me inspiration to get on with my own little cottage that I've been procrastinating on... Thanks!
