my birthday wishlist

          My birthday is coming up soon!  This is my birthday book wish list...


1. Paper Fashions Yesterday - For the little girl in me.  I love making paper clothes using the stencils and patterned papers that come with this series.  You can even embellish your paper clothes by adding sequins, lace ribbons and more.  I also have Paper Fashions, Paper Fashions Fancy, and Paper Fashions Fantasy.  This book is made by Klutz, Inc. and is only available in the U.K. and Australia, so I really hope I can get a copy but i just don't know how.

2. Contemporary Fashion Illustration Techniques - I want to learn how to draw ala hed kandi. I hope to take a fashion illustration course someday.

3. Christmas at Friday Harbor - A very thin book by my favorite romance author, Lisa Kleypas.

4. Be the Miracle - by Regina Brett.  I was a fan of her other book, God Never Blinks. I felt so good after reading each one of her 50 life lessons.  Her book made me feel more positive and has made me more appreciative of the little things in life.

5. When Passion Rules - by Johanna Lindsey, another favorite romance author.  Her recent books are not as good as her old Malory novels.  I still get embarrassed about reading her books in public.

6.  Delirium - by Lauren Oliver.  A dystopian novel where people live in a world where love is a disease that you need to be cured from.

7. Betty Crocker Basics : How to Cook and Entertain with Confidence - After making super yummy instant Betty Crocker brownies and chocolate cookies,  I have come to believe that anything endorsed by Betty Crocker will taste good.  I'm curious, is Betty Crocker  a real person?

8. Fifty Shades of Grey - by E. L. James.  This book has been number one in the Amazon bestseller list for many weeks now.  I haven't heard about the author but I want to find out what the fuss is about this book.
