The simple act of writing does something mysterious . . . it binds our ideas, events, stories & dreams to our minds & hearts. It secures our memories, even if we never revisit our words again.
Collecting the artifacts of our lives adds tangible beauty to our written words – letters & cards, ticket stubs, pressed flowers, first lock of hair & last hand-written list. They give us visual & emotional roadmaps of thoughts we capture & memories we cherish.
And since fancy books & lovely papers are the best for creating and collecting . . .
. . . I make them.
birdhouse journals are made from upcycled hard-cover books, scraps of fabric, envelopes, pretty, painted & found papers, clips, stamps, stickers & doo-dads … designed to be carried & used. They offer space to write, as well as to tape & glue our trinkets, pictures, mementos & doodles. They encourage writing, as well as stashing, stuffing, & keeping, whether you are light-hearted or serious-minded.
Find yours, my lovely… carry it always, fill it up & journal on.
