LIBROS December 2012 Program
STAR BOX
with Dale Harris
This easy-to-make, five-sided pyramid box is constructed with book board
covered with decorative papers and closes with ribbons and a bead.
Created by Canadian book artist Trisha Klus, as seen in the May 2012 issue
of Bound & Lettered Magazine, the design is both whimsical and elegant.
Hang it on your Christmas tree or display it on your mantle with a small,
surprise treasure inside.
