lovely small Christmas gifts
These ornaments make me happy, as though you can feel the peaceful spirit of the artisan. These are subtle and exquisite. I like the natural material and the delicate gold design. The gold cord is nice, but I swapped it for a very thin turquoise satin ribbon to add a touch of my own. I bought two sets of these to give as small gifts for friends in my writing group. I wrote a message on the back with acrylic paint pen -- just a few words plus the year -- in a blue that matches the ribbon I used.
So many uses!
The purple looks as if it's dyed leaves. Such a rich, dark purple. The button is attached securely. The handmade paper is a bonus. I can't wait to use as a sketch book or journal in my travel bag. Very well made. Pretty enough to leave out on desk top. It would make a lovely gift for an artist, poet or anyone who likes to jot down their muses in a one of a kind notebook. Guest book in your guest room, family recipes for a niece or nephew, written story made up with a grandchild... The options are limitless.
