A Year At My Back Door- The Book...

Well, I was so delighted to receive my Blurb book yesterday. My Year At My Back Door project which I finished up in January is now available as a book with all my favourite images gathered together in it. At the moment it is available in a small format, with two pictures on each page, as you can see below.
In the next couple of weeks there will also be a big coffee-table size hard-cover one which will have one image on each page. I think it will do more justice to the images, but I did want to have a smaller option available too.







I'm not finished with this project yet, as there are a few more things cooking which I hope to tell you about in a few weeks time. In the meantime, you can also view the entire year of photos over on AYAMBD the blog. And even better, you can buy the books in the Blurb bookstore
Or you can just click on the badge at the top right of this page.

That's lovely. I'm a big fan of Blurb books. Have heard a lot of people give out about them but I think they're great for the price!

Thanks for all your lovely comments!

Mammydiaries, if you click on the 'in the Blurb bookstore' link it should take you straight to the shop. Do let me know if it doesn't work!

Mel said...

Ciara, Congratulations!!

You inspire me in myriad and multifaceted ways... as do your photos. TREMEMDOUS!

I like the idea of both sizes, but love the smaller one especially; more intimate and no crease across the lovely images. (From one easily distracted...)

(BTW; My today's blog is the one I've been holding onto 'til now... the one that makes me think of you!) :D And to think we FINALLY got snow... TODAY, and are due for more through tomorrow... The birds had begun singing here, too this week! *sigh*

Happy Spring, Ciara! May you continue to spring forth with all your lovely creativity!
