Books, Book & more Books


Since we moved into the blue house I hadn't been able to organize our books.
They were covered in dust and in a sad, sad state of neglect.
So I folded up my sleeves & finally dusted each and every one of them
and organized them by subject. Of course Turbo was there to help.
They look so happy now!


And speaking of happy books... I'm thrilled to announce that
my birdies are in Heather's amazing new book!
I am honored to have contributed a couple of my watercolor paintings
to the Gallery section of Water Paper Paint.
Isn't that the prettiest book cover ever? I can't wait to get my own copy.
I absolutely love Heather's work and I'm glad to own a few of her originals.
I highly recommend you visit her blog and stop by her shop.

"Understanding Border Collies" - haha - is there a book called "Understanding Zoja - the little cunning mutt"? I think I would need something like that, too! :)
Congratulation on the book feature - looks great!
Your books look very organized indeed!Great work! :O) & Congrats on the new contribution as well!! It looks fantastic! ;O) xo
It all looks so gorgeous. I am particularly interested in the book, Paintings of the Birds of New Zealand, being a kiwi myself. :)
Beautiful stuff as always, Gennine. :)
Beautiful shofar, Geninne! Your books look so cozy and inviting on their shelves. I love the selection!
Your books made me salivate -- I just had a library built onto the house and have floor-to-ceiling bookcases. I LOVE books and anyone with this many is good people in my book!
Oh, you have a wonderful library. What a diversity of subjects!
And congrats on the new book pages. I'll keep my eye open for it at the bookstore.
Oh, your art, your home, your son and your succulents and cacti are all beautiful. thank you so much for sharing your life through your blog.
AMAZING blog - came across it through Creature Comforts, and am so excited that I found you! So inspired right now...want to make my own stamps for the holidays! Have all the supplies in my craft bin, and want to start sketching asap! following you on Bloglovin' & Google Friend Connect - can't wait to see what you post next!

I will be getting a bookshelf for my birthday this year and I couldn't be happier about that. Up until now my books have been lining the hallways of my home(s).
I do so like looking at all of your book titles...and seeing the friendly doggie. :)
Congrats on your continued Success!!! How grand is your life, eh?!
Beautiful book and beautiful bookcase! I hope one day to have a wall of shelves in my living room to show off our collection too.
Congratulations! Felicidades!
Por cierto; me encanta la luz que entra por vuestras ventanas.
