How exciting to see the wreath above! It is one I made for Jason to use in his newest book, Playing With Books, due out in April. All of my wreaths are made from old books that are falling apart, or that have been scribbled in or damaged in some way. I'm honored that it is featured along with all the other great paper items. Thank you!
