Last Saturday, we produced a party for a young animal lover, and the table centerpieces were composed of books that after the party were donated to Project Cicero, an annual non-profit book drive that supplements or even creates libraries in under resourced public schools. What a thoughtful way to decorate, right?!
Making this statement even more personal, we created these fun bookends, inspired by our client’s drawings of animals. Now . . . you actually COULD make these at home if you really, really wanted to, but I thought it would be fun to sit back, simply enjoy, and marvel at the work of a good laser cutter – which is how we got those animals to be shaped so fine and precisely.
Look ma! NO HANDS!

They’re really cool, abstract sculptures without the books, too. Aren’t they?
These completely rock! I love the idea of books, plus the giving back, PLUS using the client's images!

Hi Sprout. They're actually our images, but we are happy to share. Glad you like!!! We are always looking for creative ways to surprise and have the decor be thoughtful at the same time.
We appreciate your feedback! Keep it coming!

Sorry, should have said the client's drawings. ;-)

ahhh . . . got it! You should see the drawings . . . they are so cool. We based everything in the party on them -- invitations, decor, favors. Super CUTE!!!
Perhaps one of my next posts will showcase that!
