Basketful of Sea Shell Journals

Several Sea Shell Journals I bound using Irish Deep Scallop Sea Shells.

I did a Coptic Stitch Binding using waxed linen thread.

I utilized a variety of handmade papers; printable ivory paper with aster petals, white papers with silver & silk threads, parchment papers and natural Lokta printable paper.
