Once Upon A Time...

I've always been a big kid at heart, and constantly living in my imagination i've always loved fairy tales and children's stories.
Recently I seem to be buying more and more 1940s-1960s children's story books. The illustrations are exquisite, and the smell of old paper sets my imagination wild with thoughts of whose bedtime rituals these pages once belonged.
With every page i live happily ever after.

  1. One of the most amazing things in life is the smell of really old books! It always makes me smile leaving the little messages inside which previous owners have written. xox

  2. Agreed! I always make sure I write a message inside a book before I give one as a gift :)
