It’s time again to share some cool findings from around the web.
Do you keep a diary and if you do would you share it with anyone? One of my dear friends and I tried to do a traveling diary once but didn’t quite keep up with it but look at these journalers who’ve managed to keep a journal going for a year. So cool.
Have you ever dreamed of walking into a story from a book? Well a group of artists has just recreated the Goodnight Moon bedroom!
Speaking of bedrooms how about upgrading your tissue boxes with Tissue Book boxes.
On the topic of book and paper arts, take a look at this book which highlights paper works from 24 artists. All the intricate cuts are just amazing. I want to know how long it took to make some of these art works.
And, when you have new books you need new shelves right? Can you imagine these shelves from Tokyo’s Kadokawa Culture Museum. I’m sure even with all of these some of us would still say not enough room for all the books. It’s beautiful and if there were some comfy couches around I’d never leave.
I hope you enjoyed these and have a delightful weekend exploring your surroundings real or imagined.
Iliana, I especially loved the link about the traveling journal. It made me think how fun it might be to have readers journal thoughts about some wonderful books that they’ve read over the years that they still think about from time to time.
I want to go see the Kadokawa Cultural Center!
I am terrible at journaling. I love the idea and keep starting–and then stopping, staying stopped for months, and then picking it up again–sometimes a year or so later. Oh my gosh, those bookshelves! That’s crazy. Thank you for sharing!
Although I’ve kept physical journals for decades, I’ve never been able to keep a successful travel journal. I was always to tired at the end of the day! Thanks for the links, Iliana 🙂
I just love your Link-O-Rama posts! My favorite was the Colossal post on the 24 paper work artists, I kept gazing through the images again and again.
I used to keep a diary but have stopped doing so for years. I think a traveling diary is a great idea as one could jot down the places visited alongside the photos. And thanks for sharing the links, Iliana!
I love seeing these links. Those shelves in the culture museum are amazing. The paper art, too!
Diane – Oh I think that would be great and would make for such a fun journal to read. Can you imagine the list of books you’d add to your wishlist 🙂
Isabel – Girl, I knew you’d love that! When we win the lottery we can go 🙂
Literary Feline – You know I had a teacher once that told me she kept a journal but it was just a one entry a year journal where she’d jot down everything that was important from the previous year. And, I thought that was cool. I mean a journal doesn’t have to be an every day entry. I go through phases although the past couple of years I’ve been filling in more journals than ever.
Jen Mullen – I start off so well with travel journals but by the end of the trip I’m just sticking in receipts and other things picked up from the trip. Very little writing is happening. I’d love to have the patience to do some travel sketching!
Lex @ Lexlingua – Oh thank you. Isn’t that art work amazing? I’d love to go to an art exhibit to see works like that.
Melody – I love travel journals and was doing so well with one but now that we haven’t traveled thanks to covid it’s just waiting around for me. I can’t wait until we can travel again!
Deb Nance at Readerbuzz – Those shelves are stunning aren’t they? It would be so cool to visit one day!
