Happy New Year!

H is for Happy New Year!!
…and what about all this proper winter weather!
Beautiful, as long as you don’t need to get anywhere!!
Thank you to all you lovely readers out there for all your support and appreciation over 2024 🙂

I hope that you all had a cosy Christmastime? Mine was restful, peaceful and heart-warming – just what I needed!
Did you receive lots of books for Christmas? Best-sellers, deeply thought-provoking or old favourites?

These two Bespoke Shelf Portrait clients were certainly very happy with their Christmas presents from their partners 🙂
M is for Mutual Aid

I gave my son a copy of Petr Kropotkin’s Mutual Aid: A Factor of Evolution and was happy to discover that he already had a copy, so he gifted it back to me 🙂

I am finding it a fascinating read…

“Practicing mutual aid is the surest means for giving each other and to all the greatest safety, the best guarantee of existence and progress, bodily, intellectual and moral.”I can’t help but think that our world would be a better, kinder, brighter place if there was more cooperation than competition…

T is for Thank You Letters…
One of my resolutions for 2025 is to write more letters, starting with those Thank you letters that I haven’t quite got around to yet!! Have you?
How about writing them in these Bookshelf Art greeting cards?
You can get a Mix & Match set of four for just £10 (just state which cards you would like in the Order Notes on the checkout page).

Wishing you all the best for a cooperative 2025!
