Handcrafted Editions

"Accessories like miniature sneakers, a dried red rose, twigs, laser-carved designs, special papers and small leather pouches filed with acorns, connect the reader to the story before the book is opened."

Here is a collection of stories that have become finished books.  Some are silly, others are serious and each was triggered by a real event. Production of these editions comes from the exquisite craft of Carol Blinn, a publisher, printer, artist and editor at Warwick Press in Easthampton, Massachusetts. Each is custom designed and hand bound, many with original illustrations drawn and hand colored, and some featuring special handmade decorated papers. Carol's talent converts each story into a handcrafted treasure for family, friends and collectors.
