Morning Glory on the Vine, Joni Mitchell

Morning Glory on the Vine — less a coffee table book, more a glimpse into Joni Mitchell’s actual mind. Originally made in 1971 as a hand-bound Christmas gift for close friends, it’s filled with her handwritten lyrics, watercolours, sketches, and poems from the Blue era—beautifully loose, personal, and completely unfiltered. The whole thing feels intimate in a way very few books do now; like finding someone impossibly talented’s notebook left open on a table. One of those rare books that genuinely changes the atmosphere of a room just by existing in it.
