Around the Block

I've been working on a couple of new products for Mathildas Market.

These story dice which will come with a little Moleskin notebook and a pencil/pen. Depending on time constraints I am hoping to have them in a little drawstring bag, if not I'll work out some other packaging.
Next up is an idea I got from Ingrid when I was showing her the story dice. She suggested making little block puzzles with them. I only have enough blocks at the moment for 2 different puzzles but I have more on order thanks to a little man in Tassie courtesy of Toni.

From a Miffy book

From The Taxi that Hurried

All the illustrations on both the story dice and the puzzles come from damaged vintage books.

They all look fantastic. What a nice way to rescue damaged books.

(Sorry about the previous comment deletion ... the typing was just too embarrassing to leave!)
