Those are just too cute!! If I ever get the house back to "normal", I will have to work on a project like that!

So pretty! I love the first batch best! I popped by Goodwill today and picked up some books to distress ala Pottery Barn. It was actually pretty fun ripping the covers off. Don't tell Mom!

Hi Kathy,
I had to come back and try to comment again!
Darn Blogger wouldn't let me. How dare them to try and keep me from my Kathy!!!

I just love these sweet books. You have made them so special and so pretty. Ooh, a big stack would be nice.

hugs

Cute, cute, cute. I love them too!

I think paper wrapped books are such a great way to use books that you may not otherwise use for you decorating. Fun that you added embellishments too!
