Interwoven with practical thoughts and tips are Rachel's thoughts about beauty and aesthetics, and poetry that illuminates her thoughts. Illustrated with watercolor illustrations from a variety of artists, including Ben Peck-Whiston, Rachel believes the ambiguity of artwork over photographs gives a more mindful and timeless approach. This allows the reader to more easily layer in their own thoughts and observations and hopefully be inspired to tap into their creativity by pulling together a notebook of their own favorite things which tell their story.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Looking through the pages is a journey through a Shabby Chic wonderland.
