My inspiration had daffs lying down yesterday and I thought it was a clever idea, so emulated (copied) them!
Pocketful of joy today - Over 100 books donated since yesterday, I filled eight black bin bags with unsuitable ones. (Why do people dump their rubbish so we pay to dispose of dirty, mouldy, those with broken spines, out of date medical books and one looked like it had been nibbled by rats!) I left the stockroom tidy and shop's shelves fully stocked.
Hate it, but it does make a fabulous prop for your photo. I have kept my flowers in water so I think they’re outlasting yours unless you cut yours before I did good work on this Wabisabi photo
I am chairperson of our library committee and we get that junk all the time. We get a lot of great donations as well. The dirty, old, and moldy books just make work for us and cannot be added to the library. Love the minimalism and wabi sabi.
Oh dear. Not sure that it even qualifies as wabi sabi.
One of my friends is a member of the Friends of the Library. Before Christmas she and others cleaned out an old book store, selling off as much of the decent stock as they could at three sales, packing up the remainder of the decent stuff to sell to a large thrift book company and recycling anything left that was recyclable. The building had been sold so the owners tossed all the unfit books that the library group didn't take care of.
That is one BIG marmite jar though.
