If I had all the money in the world...


from Vol.8, the work of Laura Normandin

... I would buy a subscription of this book series for all of you! Such is the extent of my love here, I want everyone to share in this gorgeousness! :) Lines & Shapes is the independent design collective who publish this series, curated by artists Maria Vettese and Lena Corwin. Each issue features a different visual 'jumping off point' and the artists submit their individual interpretations of the theme. Last year they published six volumes and they have four planned for this year. They also offer special book bundles where you can choose any 3 from the collection for a set price (I bought volumes #5, 7 and 8!) Sorry I can't get them for you, but please have a look. Their website can be found here and the special 3-book bundle page is here. Enjoy!

Yes, I have seen them Kylie- soon, soon, they are very high on my list...-
I also wanted to tell you about the mothering thing- I am so relieved by what you said- I have such a tendency to the guilt thing- thank you Kylie!!!

Thanks for the great comments! Aren't these books just the most divine things? I have to wait till next month to get more. I just love them.
Anna Maria, you're coming up as Doug again - maybe this will be your new nickname?!! Doesn't really suit your gorgeous work, though ;) Don't worry about the mothering thing - we all do the best job we can and you're soooo much more patient than me! :) K
