flashback friday favorite ~ decomposition book

yesterday i found treasure in a cool little vintage book store in vancouver washington ~

including this decomposition book, made in the usa of 100% post-consumer recycled waste & printed with soy ink ~

i've posted here before about what a prolific journal writer i am, & i've used standard composition books as journals too ~

this spiral bound one is perfect because it allows room for homemade Stickers, toxic's obsession ~

snowflakes, fractals & moon craters.. it's like it was made for us ~

have i mentioned i love books? here i am in my element ~

& check out the sock rack! goats! & chickens! #noboringsocks ~

i picked up other items i'll share later ~

old & curious.. yep. 

this has been a flashback friday favorite post from a winter past..
