When I was in Barcelona I observed the local tradition of bookgiving between partners on Valentines day. I think it's a great tradition and significantly more romantic the conventional western tradition of lining Hallmark's pockets with gold. But I decided to take things one step further.
This year, I endevored to make my husband a sketchbook from scratch for Valentine's day. From arranging the signatures, to sewing, gluing, binding and covering, I documented the whole process. Happy Valentine's Day!
