Comments
as I was looking through it with you I couldn't help wondering...
how people in the future will see these treasures!
they have warmth and life and history in their bones. and when the world
has become machines and plastic and shiny and everything metallic...well.
oh my!

'handmade by Catherine: the Maker' in sepia tones maybe? it would be lovely.
