{Charming Calligraphy}

 Looking to add a bit of flare to my newest antique inspired pieces, I uncovered in my library an ancient German calligraphy book gifted to me by my Mother. She is a huge lover and collector of antique books and is where I was first exposed to the wonderful world of antiquity. It has been a long time since I have dabbled in calligraphy, but I couldn't help being completely exhilarated by this stunning book which I have owned for many years but never really took the time to enjoy. The craftsmanship behind this particular book is alone inspiring. The leather binding, the feel of each page hand stamped with a seal. Channeling the beauty of this book, I am trying my hand at calligraphy once more. Thanks again Mom for keeping my creative juices flowing.
 Hope you all enjoy the results as much as I do. 
 xoxo
