I went to a fun crafting event last week at @lnc.a I went to a fun crafting event last week at @lnc.artistry with a few other ladies, wine, and snacks. We bedazzled a book! 

I took my favorite book ever, a signed copy of @elizabeth_gilbert_writer's, #EatPrayLove, as I thought it would look cool with some jewels. 

It's hard to see in any light I tried to take a photo in but it was fun. Here's some other books that got bedazzled as well.
