I've see pics of those accordian moleskins. They look nice. Thanks for stopping by.<BR/><BR/>Lynn, you are too kind. I know myself well. I often attempt failed tasks any number of times. And you know what most often I figure it out. Of course, I'm not trying to figure out brain surgery.sukipoethttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09351851210507048174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34861243.post-90618827329918899412008-10-04T01:11:00.000-04:002008-10-04T01:11:00.000-04:00A very cool idea...and I admire your stick to itness to get it just right.

Your accordion pages look really great. I have one of those Japanese fold out mmoleskines that I want to do something with. Your piece reminded me of it. Thanks for all th nice comments on my blog. I haven't done a self portrait yet. I will do one sometime this month.<BR/><BR/>KateKatehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08369818854597534304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34861243.post-84631110725767491592008-10-03T19:07:00.000-04:002008-10-03T19:07:00.000-04:00Thanks Britt-arnild.<BR/><BR/>Mim, really do you have cigar boxes?? If you are serious I'd love a few. They make wonderful cases for books and also for assemblages.<BR/><BR/>Thanks Rebecca.<BR/><BR/>Thanks Katie Jane. Now lets hope I can replicate the colors for the additional pages I want to add on.sukipoethttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09351851210507048174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34861243.post-7306921997552908382008-10-03T19:04:00.000-04:002008-10-03T19:04:00.000-04:00Annie, thanks for the encouragement. I think I've thought of a way to make it work more like I'd like by adding on a couple more pages so the quote isnt buried in the box.<BR/><BR/>Kim it is a fun box. Wonder what was in it originally?? I have seen such books in boxes and other containers. Really arty ones. So this is my first try. I do like the colors too. Oh, I just looked up and saw the gorgeous quarter? moon.<BR/><BR/>Cris, it is easier to make mistakes when tired. But also, sometimes I am more creative when tired as my left brain is turned off and wild ideas outflow.sukipoethttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09351851210507048174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34861243.post-81893938871403725092008-10-03T18:54:00.000-04:002008-10-03T18:54:00.000-04:00I love all of this. The box is great and the pages are wonderful. I wish I had time to work on things like this. Wish I didn't have to make art on the fly. Oh well.<BR/>I agree with Kim, love the colors.katie janehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10703557560000189704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34861243.post-40182933588349386002008-10-03T18:24:00.000-04:002008-10-03T18:24:00.000-04:00Oh, this is a great idea!<BR/><BR/>And I love the self-portrait too.Rebeccahttp://differenceayearmakes.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34861243.post-1700991091489583232008-10-03T17:12:00.000-04:002008-10-03T17:12:00.000-04:00What a clever idea.

I can see why you would want to use it as a base for a book...how I love that idea! I also love the idea of the quote in the book, too. While only you can make the call, I think the idea is really excellent. I also adore the colors you have chosen for the pages of the book! They really bring a lot of umph! to the bamboo. <BR/><BR/>Super Cool Project, Suki!Kimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15337904921232330088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34861243.post-49143461591455434242008-10-03T12:19:00.000-04:002008-10-03T12:19:00.000-04:00I love this idea!
