Chance Encounter

by | Sep 16, 2025 | Musings

Working for the library makes it so easy to borrow and return books that it’s made me literary-ly adventurous. Still, I don’t know why I picked up Unlock Your Aesthetic, probably because the cover features a 70s/80s hybrid background and is matte embossed over gloss.

Takeaway: I really enjoy how she crudely, but charmingly, makes props from paper and creates her own imaginary world in an accessible way. 

  • It gave me a flood of ideas for a Halloween costume.
  • And the next day I had ideas about making my own handmade props for photos.
