The books you make are pretty cool, they look stunning. <br /><br />Some ideas:<br />- a hand coming out of the bookcover.<br /> (maybe in tree)<br />- a book covered in green mud or slime. <br /> (so it looks like someone spilled it on the book)<br />- dragonfootprint or another magical animal footprint.<br />- bodyparts, finger, eye, ear, toe nails, eyelashes. (you get the picture, I hope)<br /><br />That's my ideas for now. I'll pop over when new one's are coming up!<br /><br />Have a nice day!<br /><br />DikteBellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13392081372553823172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2898450558981750637.post-75316640717679580682010-03-29T04:06:39.886+01:002010-03-29T04:06:39.886+01:00Nikki, I wish, wish, wish I could go to the show a...Nikki, I wish, wish, wish I could go to the show and buy some of your wonderful things! I love the idea of the bags of small things to scatter through-out their wizard rooms.... The books are great! As far as ideas for the front cover...snakes, roots, plants, dragons, fierce looking teeth (like looking into the mouth of a dragon) a bunch of eyes, ummm that's all I have for now. Just a thought.<br />wishing you a sucessful show!<br /><br />LoriLorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17433297496801569415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2898450558981750637.post-66714943393768998012010-03-28T21:28:57.421+01:002010-03-28T21:28:57.421+01:00Nikki you make the cutest things!

I'm in a agreement with Debie, I like the idea of no eyes too, especially on the ones who look a little devilish! lol As a compromise, you could add eyes to the smiling ones, and leave the others eyeless.<br /><br />Hmm books...I've added a spider on the front of books, locks, a leather string with a key attached, some have metal studs in the corners (and aged). I have seen some great jewellery (aged metal) pieces and very inexpensive, I will send you the link so you can get some ideas. I am going to buy some for my books and also to hang on potion bottles. <br /><br />Michelle xxxMichellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15844807744316681870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2898450558981750637.post-27348973829953606892010-03-28T17:27:38.358+01:002010-03-28T17:27:38.358+01:00Nikki just had a thought, you know you said you ha...Nikki just had a thought, you know you said you had lots of watch oarts etc but wernt going to be making wizard things with them because of breakage in postage? How about putting some gears etc on the bookcovers? Looks wizardy!

How on earth do you do those faces!! I spy more dragon skin hats in the background too, goodie! I so hope to at last get some of your pumpkins this time. The pic and mix bag is a cool idea. Maybe do that with the books, a few books, a hat, some mushrooms etc in bags. These will really sell I think! You seem to be flying along nicely now, its hard isnt it making for 3 days, can see why a 2 or 1 day fair is better really, especially for your first, but think youll be a HUGE hit! Cant wait to meet you, coming on Friday I think,. Lola and I will always give you a hand on the stall if you need a coffee break....just dont expect to come back to anything on your stall though, Ill have bought the lot!!!! John has just got himself a little classic car project so hes promised me some pcket money for the show, dont think he realises quite how much ill need though!!
