Now, this might be the coolest news I'll have for a while...
Recently, I had a client contact me about repairing an old book of hers. It's completely missing it's covers, the pages are falling out, torn up, and the spine has broken in half... All to say, it is in need of some serious TLC!

She was unable to find the title or publication year of the book, so I did some digging and found out it's the New Geographical and Historical Grammar by Thomas Salmon, 12th edition, published in London in 1772!
I was totally blown away when I learned this. It is by far the oldest book I will have ever worked on. The original edition was published in 1749 and became Salmon's most popular and successful work. There were a total of 13 editions published with the 10th being the last before he died in 1767.
The book has loads of maps that depict different areas around the globe and even has a few writings on what they knew of the solar system back then.

I'm working on a brand new line of journals that are more cohesive than my last batch, so if you like something in my store now, it will be the last time you see it. I have about 3-4 journals left of each design if you're interested.
Most journals are discounted $10 :)

I also have decided to re-vamp my website in the coming month. I'll be changing my brand colors from black, cream, and burgundy to navy, cream, and gold. I felt this was fitting seeing as Annapolis (where I'm located) is a big boater town & navy is one of my favorite colors.
So, if my website looks different next month--that's why!

Anyway, thank you for reading all the way down here. I hope you enjoyed my update! If you have any questions about anything, shoot me an email :)
See you in July!
