more pencils

I just added this box of pencils to my shop. Wrapped with an engine diagram from a wonderful but tatty vintage encyclopaedia .

Have suitcase...will travel!

 I just spent a morning wrapping pencils! I think I'm all mod podged out now. I'll get onto a different project next week :-)
I made two cute little suitcase matchboxes for world map pencils. It seemed fitting. 

Have a great weekend, and if you are travelling...be careful...it's a jungle out there!

pencil boxes

This is my latest thing. Vintage encyclopaedia wrapped mini pencils. 

When I get around to it, I'll be adding some to my Etsy shop.

8 to a box - they are so cute!

a handmade box - of course!

I love little things! Don't you?


They even will come with a poem!


Age old book,
Tattered, torn.
Cover loose,
Pages worn.
Ruler, knife,
pencils, glue.
Turn it into
something new.


(Do I need my head examined?)
