Took me a while to work on this book. It's the biggest one I've ever made yet. Twice the size of my first two.
Outside decoration. First i made a frame with thick brass wire. I then wrapped thinner brass wire around it. i framed that frame with polymerclay, stamped designs and then colored it. Threw rocks inside and superglued it to the book. (the strange swiggle on the very right is a hook on for an elastic that keeps the book together.
The paper was crinkled, burnt and glued. Drilled holes into the book to sew the chain of stones and beads.
