My New Creation: Fairytale Book Sculpture

     Well, I was able to set aside a few hours each day for the last two weeks to complete (nearly complete) a project.  My husband Bob, loves collecting old books - lots of old books. Many of them are in very bad condition, but too unique to toss out. So, I have reworked one into a 'book sculpture'.  All though tedious, it has been a lot of fun.
     Bob, is going to sculpt me a tree branch holder out of stoneware clay.  Now I have to wait two weeks for the clay to dry and for him to fire, glaze, and fire again.  I love his sculptures, but I don't have it in me to wait patiently.  I guess that's why I create things that can be completed quickly.  In the meantime, I will start my next book sculpture.
