Flying high

Over the summer I stumbled across this little book called The Benefits of Looking Up, which is a collection of pictures of lost balloons. The photos were taken on the streets of New York City using the authors' iPhones.

I didn't really have a use for the book, but the quote on the back cover was so endearing that I couldn't let it go:

"In a city where everyone looks down, we decided to look up."

So, I've started ripping the pictures out and using them to decorate plain, brown, paper bags. My sister-in-law's birthday just passed, and I have this ridiculously cute gift bag but, alas, no gift. Of course.
