ANTIQUE SPECTACLES

We inherited a large bag of antique spectacles from my late father-in-law.  We have no idea where they came from or why he had them, but I decided they were not going to be thrown out!  I knew I would find a use for them eventually.
Here's one pair being used as a photographic prop for this weeks


I used Kim Klassen's Lightpaper3 and Lightpaper 4 textures.

  2. Hi Diana,
    I love your vignette of the specs and book on the beautiful textile. Sadly, I don't have the creative ability to put items together for a photo. But I still try. :o)

    All the best,

  5. THAT IS BEAUTIFUL. I don't think I've mentioned this on my blog but my professional goal is to be a rare books librarian. I love old books. That one you have there is quite lovely. And how awesome to have inherited those fabulous old specs! Will we see more of them?
