I love....


















I had been waiting to get the Cabinet of Natural Curiosities for awhile....it is lovely. The smashed fairies have always amused me, so I got a second book. And what do I need to say about Beatrix Potter? (There are guinea pigs in the book, so that was a bonus!)

I wouldn't put that Seba book on the ground if I were you... :/
I know I treat mine like gold.
It's been out of the house just once - when I took it to the tattoo studio to get the sweet pea flowers on my ankles.

It isn't the complete plates book, it's actually a smaller version that didn't cost nearly as much.

Yes very lovely things, and some really silly things like hedgehogs on their backs and creatures that really don't exist!

Did you get the Seba book and the Brian Froud book from Barnes & Noble's bargain? LOL. Sorry, I work there and I was just curious! I want to get the Natural Curiosities book soooooooooooo badly, I have to get around to it soon. It's amazing!

I sure did! Haha. I find great stuff there, I have a hard time buying full priced books because of it.

I've never even heard about the Beatrix Potter book, I may need to go out now and find it! It looks beautiful.

I also have Lady Cottington's squished Fairy book, and love it to pieces.
