I am so excited because I received this book in the mail yesterday. I am an avid collector of books and this one I really wanted to have in my collection. I will never get used to the new "kindle" I like to touch and feel the pages of a book.
It has beautiful pictures (and as a very inexperienced blogger, I deleted some that I wanted to show you).
Also has instructions on different painting techniques, sewing curtains, etc.
I ordered it through Amazon, which has an incredible selection of used books in perfect condition, this one supposedly was used but I bet you it was never opened. It is perfect.
I received it from Hastings and when I ordered it the price was $7.99 plus shipping $3.99.
When I received it, the price on the back of the book was $4.99.
Moral of the story: Check your local "used" book store before ordering through the internet, you never know the prices you'll find.
There is still time to enter my giveaway
I will chose the winner on Thursday!
Until next time mes amies have a great day!

it's a beautiful book and well worth what you paid for it despite the fact that it was actually sold cheaper. i will be on the hunt for it. it looks magnifique!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great book !! like it very much !!...lovely day...love Ria....xxx..
ReplyDeleteThe book looks fantastic, but it would put a little damper on it if you paid more than you should of. Although the original price must have been much more...

Hi
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your words of encouragement and support. I should probably check into the hormone thing, I have been putting that off. I never used to have to watch my weight until I went through menopause. So I am sure that had something to do with it. I really don't eat a lot, but I do like the sweets and butter. So I am redesigning my lifestyle. Here in the winter I just quit exercising which is not good. I have to say I am not an exerciser person ... I would much rather be in my studio!
So this will be a challenge for me!
Thanks again for your input, I appreciate your encouragement
Blessings to you today

What a fabulous book and what a great deal too! I've just looked through your posts and you are one clever and talented lady. I'm happy I found your blog.

What a nice book. I know what you mean about needing feel and touch the books. I think a novel would work on a Kindle, but these beautiful coffee table books need to be real.
