You Became My Mother - Books of Love

Description

Made in the USA! Books of Love are a way to express the sentiments that are very often felt but left unspoken. They are made from real hard bound books that have been rescued from the "jaws" of the incinerator. Then they are subjected to nine separate processes and given a new life in the form of this unique gift. Each step is done entirely by hand and, as a result, no two books can ever be exactly alike. The poem reads: You Became My Mother - You became my “Mother” The day that I was wed. Hardly knowing one another When the vows had all been said. I chose your child forever Through laughter and through tears. I also choose you, “Mother,” To cherish through the years. You’ve always been there for us Together or apart, And, I’d like to thank you, “Mother,” From the bottom of my heart.
