We are big fans of Joni Mitchell in our household. For me she soundtracked lazy summer days, family car journeys and cooking with friends.

Not only an amazing singer-songwriter Joni is also an accomplished artist. Back when her famous Blue album was topping the charts across the world in 1971, Joni created some books for friends.

These amazingly personal gifts were called Morning Glory on the Vine and contained her hand-written lyrics, poems and watercolour paintings. Each hand-crafted, signed and numbered, these original copies are rare but it was recently announced that these books are going to be printed again.

In addition to what went before there will be a preface by the signer herself. Not being released until October 22nd 2019, you can pre-order your copy in advance. I can’t wait to see it!
