[[ HUDSON LINE RAILROAD. ]]
The front of this notebook features one of my TTV photographs of the autumn view from a MetroNorth train along the Hudson River line.
TTV stands for "through the viewfinder," in this case, that of a vintage, square format camera. This gives the images a retro feel and a variance in focus that isn't common to straightforward digtal photography.
- 6.25" x 6.25" (16 cm x 16 cm) - 200 pages. - Bound with turquoise blue waxed Irish linen thread.

I was shopping with my sister and she found a limited selection of crystal heart necklaces on sale for $25 (originally $50). I knew I could make something almost exactly the same for much less, and I told her so. She asked for a light pink one.

I also got a few in Siam and Light Vitrail. They're so pretty, and I think they're going to make great Christmas gifts.
I'd love to take custom orders of these. I can order the hearts in just about any color and right now I'm only charging $10 + $2.50 US shipping. You'll have a hard time finding something like this for such a low price. The only real catch is that it takes about a week for the hearts to get to me once I order them, so it'll probably take about a week and a half for you to receive your lovely necklace.
Check out my other items for sale in my Etsy Shop too! |
