JaM - Books

I finally ordered the 2 books I've wanted for quite a while.


The only other time I've ever ordered books on-line 
was when I missed getting one of the girls school book orders in on time - 
a traumatic experience 
which put me off doing it again.
Happy to report this was a pleasant & not too expensive experience 
which I'll repeat  - not too often!
I'm not a big one for reading to get ideas, I'm more your visually stimulated type of gal
 and both of these books fit that bill.
I can feel some inspiration mixing with a little motivation causing a spark of excitement at the thought of creating something for myself.

JaM this week is Books.
What books have you found which
stimulate, excite, motivate & generally take up your leisure time

in a constructive way.

Don't forget to share - Linky is below.

ps. thankyou to everyone that commented & emailed their support & empathy for last weeks JaM - 
I can feel the energy returning.

  2. Both your books look really interesting although I can't believe you don't order books online. I will try and join in this week but am at mums at the coast and no computer.

  3. I don't know how we'd all survive without our books and magazines - and aren't we lucky some clever peeps decided to make the internet for even more crafty inspiration. After looking through your blog - and all your fantastic creations - I'd love to see a book full of your fantastic inspiring projects.
    Craftly yours
