The Spoons Book

Hello Readers.

Welcome and I DO hope you are all well.

I have a BIG treat for you all today, I have a very personal and brand new project to share with you which I started a few months back. I have shown a few sneak peeks along the way but today I am finally happy to show you the whole thing. There is a video at the end of this post with a full flip through of the book and what I have done and use to help me.





It is called The Spoons book because I have created it to preserve my Spoons Useage. The Spoon Theory was created by Christine Maserandino who has Lupus. I recommend you go and read the story in the link, it shall illuminate much about this book.





















I chose the Harry Potter story for the theme because of what it represents: Harry's battle against an unknown and insidious enemy and in the end being victorious. There is of course a bit more to it really but that is what it really boils down to.

There is also some beautiful fan art out there in the big internets.

The silhouettes are done by: GTRichardson
The beautiful book illustrations are from: Gabriel Picolo
I managed to find the marauders map too along with many of the newspaper articles from the movie from various sites and forums.

The file so far has been a wonder to create and also invaluable in the content and helping out in some dark places.

  3. This is also awesome! I love what you do Kerry-Jean. Inspiring stuff. I love "projects have no deadlines" once I start something I go hell for leather till it's done! Lol My All or nothing personality. Social anxiety is also increasing for me. I don't want to go anywhere or see anyone. I need to work out strategies for that one. Keep up the good work! :)

    1. Thank you so much.

      I am so hard on my self with regards to projects and have at times foregone eating or endured physical pain to finish a project.
