Mini Shoe Leather Recycled Hand Bound Notebooks by Kate Bowles

These mini notebooks have been created using traditional bookbinding methods. The spine on each book has been left exposed (it's such a shame to hide this particularly attractive feature!) Rather than using traditional linen tape, Kate has used vintage bias binding and coloured button cottons. The book covers were originally shoe leather samples and are secured with a Dorset button and plaited threads.
Measurements: height 6.5cm, width 6.5 cm and depth 2 cm. Each book contains 10 signatures, or 50 folios (folded pages), of assorted recycled papers. Beautiful!

Even Taller Bee Hotel by Wudwerx

Now is the time to get your hands on one of these beauties, before all the beneficial insects retire for the winter. This insect habitat is ideal for hanging in a sheltered garden, on a house wall or in an orchard. It will provide much needed shelter for insects such as Mason Bees or Leafcutter Bees, which are non aggressive and excellent for pollinating in the garden, helping to increase fruit yields. The durable roof and solid timber construction also give excellent insulation for over wintering Ladybirds and Lacewings. Site using the supplied hanger in a sheltered spot, preferably to catch the morning sun, and to keep the rain from flooding the bees bedrooms.
