“Uniquely Beautiful”

Simple but very beautiful cover design. Convenient button closure. The color irregularities prove its handmade paper and adds to its beauty. The paper is a good weight. I was surprised how quickly this arrived and with a lovely thank you note from the artisan.

“These peace birds are colorful and beautiful!”

I buy bird Christmas ornaments to share with my choir member friends, but these beauties could stay out all year to sing Peace. They are soft, lightweight and I look forward to sharing them with others.
