Waaaaay overdue for a crafting update! It's been a crazy year, & grief has a hold of me in many ways, but still we craft!

These page holders are my newest source of therapy, & omg, I'm in love with the way they're coming out, y'all!

These lil guys give your hands a break when you're trying to hold a book...& they look so pretty!

I'm so hooked. I'm planning on taking most of them to be sold locally on consignment, but if you see any you like, feel free to hmu 🤙

Been sharing a lot in my stories on the gram, so check out my geekery there, too!

(& peep those sexy pedro pascal magnets! They're doing to the site soon, but early birds get the deals!)

Less ominous than a book curse, make sure your favorite volume comes back to you by attaching a bookplate to the inside cover. These also make great gifts for your favorite bookworm!

Yay! I’m starting THE HERO AND THE CROWN by Robin McKinley, a second dragon-themed gift from friend @the-forest-library . I’m also excited because the main character is named Aerin and I’m Ehryn, so high five for different spellings of the same name!

I’ll have you know I rarely see any variation of my name in books, let alone a main character, so I’m hyped!
