With my series of travel entries complete (I think), I'd like to share a
bit of the process of creating my book
Tinkered Treasures, which features
more than 35 easy-to-make projects.
As I made projects, I was sure to stop and take photos of each important step. {At times I felt like I was making a stop-motion movie} From the many photos taken, I would create collages and send them to the editor assigned to my book ...
who would then forward them to talented illustrator Qian Wu to be illustrated.
How very surreal and very wonderful to see my own photographs illustrated so beautifully. During the proofing phase of the book, I needed to carefully review each depiction to make sure that it was correct, visually descriptive and corresponded well with the written instructions.
Qian Wu was among the many talented hands that went into creating this very lovely book of which I am so honored to have written.
happy tinkering
