Domino "Bird" Books
Hosted by Nikki Smith
Sign up ends June 27th
Partners announced June 28th
Postmarked by July 15th

You will be creating a Domino book for a 1-1 partner swap in the theme of "Birds". Also, please make sure to include a short tale or poem somewhere inside your book. Your book can be accordion-style or bound on one side.  Regardless of the style of book you choose to do, please have at least 6 pages in the book. Use a standard size domino. I did a little research on making these and most people say the newer white dominoes work best. But you can use whatever you have handy. The due date is set far enough out so everyone can really take time to create a mini masterpiece. Lots of possibilities for embellishments, trim, glitter, fibers, charms, etc.

I have included a few websites and YouTube videos for lots of inspiration on making these books.
