Another new window installation completed at the wonderful Half Moon Books in Kingston.

I initially pitched an entirely different scheme that Jessica, the owner, didn't seem to keen on. She kept mentioning flowers... So, I knew I had to get her some summer blooms for our 3rd summer window together. Viola, "summer reads" was born.

I used books as petals strung to pegboard. I had found this cool technique of crocheting yarn on pegboard, so I used it for the middle of the bloom as well at the stem. It looks so simple, but the work was painstaking.

Have a great summer and make sure you pop into Half Moon Books to get all your summer vacation reads. xo, Chris
