There is something satisfying about planning ahead although it happens most often with expectations from outside myself. I spent an enjoyable hour making a sample and planning the logistics for a Wish Scroll workshop which will be part of the Holiday Open House on Saturday, December 3, at the
Book Nook at River's Edge in Ipswich, MA. We'll be making a Wish Scroll for the holidays and I'll be signing
Handmade Books For A Healthy Planet which would make a great gift for teachers, parents, and grandparents. Actually for anyone who loves books. The Book Nook, part of the River's Edge Gift Shop, is a cozy and charming and has a good selection of titles. Hope to see you there!

Hello! I enjoy reading about and seeing your handmade books. I am a book and notebook lover and often make little books for my children to use. I am curious what is the little container the scroll is to be placed in?
It's a recycled prescription container. This one was donated by a local CVS pharmacy for a workshop where I needed a quantity so it had no labels. Otherwise I remove the labels. When I started doing this, I used film containers which are still available but not as readily so.
Thank you. That is what I thought it was, but wasn't sure. I may make these with the kids today! Thanks for the inspiration.
Have fun! If you do, feel free to send me some photos to post. susan at susangaylord.com
Thanks Susan, I will. That would be great, the kids will love it.
