'The Joy of Books' Stopmotion


As a very late Whimsy Wednesday post- here is an awesome stop motion video called The Joy of Books. Sorry, I missed posting on Wednesday, I didn't know what to post about it and then completely forgot- whoops! I can't believe I missed my first Whimsy Wednesday post! Hopefully, I will remember to give you a post about fashion sometime today...
This amazing stop motion video revisits childhood dreams of what your toys do when you're not there- only with books! I would hate to know how tedious it would've been to re-sort the books in genres and alphabetical order again afterwards- eep! I thought books couldn't get any cooler- but, obviously they can!
This video is done in a bookstore called Type in Toronto and was made by a man called Sean Ohlenkamp and his wife.
Hope you like it xx

A Unique Take on Harry Potter






It is no secret that I am obsessed with Harry Potter and when I stumbled across these I was so excited! They are such a quirky and witty way to portray Harry Potter, and they even look like they belong in the Hogwarts library!
They are created by the talented Amy Sly, where more of her work, including these images, can be found here http://amysly.com/
My favourite would have to be the '7 Habits of Highly Submissive House Elves by Dobby'. But I could be biased because I love Dobby (who doesn't?!) Which is your favourite?
