| Bricks painted to look like antique books. |
Since my Revolutionary War and Post Revolutionary novels have the names of flowers, I'm growing an author's garden with chamomiles, laurels, and cassias.
When looking for garden art, I came across the idea of painting bricks to look like antique books, which I'll place among the flowers.
My granddaughter and I painted six books, 3 named after my novels, and 3 after our favorite books (Ben Hur and Jane Eyre for me; and Tuesdays with Morrie for Kenzie).
I'm amazed at how much they look like real antique books!
