Beautiful Bookplates

I don't know if I've ever been so excited over a printed product for the shop. Really and truly, these so exceeded my expectations when they returned from the printers, I was in paper-nerd heaven!

The surface of each label is very lightly textured, and just so darn nice.

We're already putting ours to use around here! Josiah asked if he could have 900, and I said: "...You can have maybe 9". I've been scheming these since the freebie download at Craftsanity, and I'm so proud to offer them in my shop.  They are packaged up in glassine packets, and look so very pretty that way.

They're now in ye olde shoppe, so if you're of the bookplate-ish persuasion, hop over and take a peek!

I must have been checking out your etsy just after you posted this... very cute! (I'm having to dowload this Craftsanity podcast...maybe I can take a listen while waiting for my DD's dance class tonight).

Oh!!! i NEED some! yay!

I've just been posting about beautiful books we have, I'll have to adorn some of them with nice bookplates :)

[jen]

I love these! Soo perfect for my most loved books!

[sara]

hmmmmm I might have to go visit your shop for book plates...since I'm obviously never going to get a black apple dollie!

Oh they are just lovely! I would consider myself in the paper nerd catagory as well. :)

Perfecto Miss! They make me want to paste them in all of my husbands books. I am very sure he would give me attitude about it, sadly. I wrote his name in a book once before we were married because a friend of his was going to read it and he went off on me.

How wonderful it must feel to get something back, that turns out even better than you expected. They are very cute.

[sheva]

I love these!! Do you have them printed at a shop are they like a big sticker?

[melissa Crowe]

Love bookplates--LOVE THEM. Good call.

Are you gonna tell us what kind of sewing machine you got (or did I miss that)? I'm dying to know.

[elmaelsiena]

Love the bookplates!! Can't wait to get mine.

[Sophie]

Oh I love the bookplates...and this Sophie will have to wait her turn for a Sophie doll...little sadness here...little pouting...I'll get over it, I promise!

[Marissa]

Oh I love them I'm not sure if any of my books are worthy though...they might have to become like the sticker collection of my childhood -just for show.

[Jennifer]

So sweet! I also like the packaging in the glassine envelopes.

[Carrie]

SO cute! I LOVE swans so these really grabbed my attention!

[marjorie]

[Pamela Overmier]

These are cute, yes tell us what sewing machine you ended up buying, and when are you having more original paintings for sale? I didnt even get to see the prices to see if I can afford one, seems a lot of us couldnt get in the shop......and when we did it was all gone! : ( Pam

These are great..
Soo..I had a dream last night that I was in this kitchen, which turned out to be my dream kitchen, because it had yellow walls and turquoise trim/appliances. And one wall had this collection of about 10 of your prints..I wanted to move in..lol..
