Oh, the irony, making an art journal into an art piece so them I can’t make art in it…
I can’t believe this worked! I used an old roll of Aliminium Foil hidden at the back of the kitchen cupboard to make this DIY book cover!
So easy: I layered the foil, embossed it, painted it, applied accents and other fancy stuff. Perfect and oh, so cheap DIY!
I am still in disbelief this worked!!!

This used to be the most hideous set of drawers…upcycle win!
Metal embossing is exquisite art process, but the fine-motor intensity, required pressure and the layered multitude of times required for each line, shape and/or form is, we’ll, in a word, painful! I have a brand-new callus on my thumb. A new callus, formed in as little as a week 🤯…it wS, absolutely worth it!
I was only going to beautify my light-switch… but, clearly, I can’t help myself. I recognise that it’s a problem…
