41\365: A pressing engagement...

Day 41/365:

 

A mix of pressed poinsettia and acer leaves. This wasn't my original idea but I changed my mind while setting it up.

The book which I got from an antique book store, was printed in 1933 but the annotations were added in 1939 for the Northern higher certificate of education. What a worrying time that must have been for its owner. Studying for an exam as WWII broke out.

 

I have no idea why I added the other bits but needed something to fill the space. The scissors are my first ever pair of hairdressing scissors, I daren't tell you how old they are but they are definitely vintage!

 

I added a few textures (my own)
