stack of eco dyed papers


Sometimes with
the bones of the black
sticks left when the fire
has gone out


yummy lying in the afternoon sun


someone has written
something new
in the ashes of your life.


such wonder


You are not leaving
you are arriving.

  4. Irene, wow! Gorgeous. I love the tutorial for dying the paper. I'm keen to give this a try. If I want to make a journal do I need to keep the pages to a certain size? Then how to bind them? So many questions :)
