  7. I adore your new journal! Did Posie make it herself? Has she used some of the pretty pages mixed in with plain ones for writing on? I remember reading that book years ago, I bet my mother still has it. I couldn't pull it apart though, never! Enjoy your new presents, they are beautiful.

  8. OH my pleasure & yes, some goodies for your MiMi too. The books are made by an Australian company called Born Again Books who gather up old books & breathe new life into them, rebinding them & adding plain recycled pages for your writing pleasure. They keep any original price tags, inscriptions, drawings, scribbles etc, gorgeous. They are spiral bound & they repurpose the spines as book marks. Genius!! So thrilled you love it Heidi, couldn't have sent it to a more special girl. Love Posie

    Heidi, you're a lovely thing, and what goes around comes around.
