When I saw these book bundles in a recent Ballard Designs catalog, I thought “I could make that!” These Antique Book Bundles average $18-$25.00. Sooo, I made a quick trip to the thrift store and bought a few older/aged paperback books that were similar in size and headed home. I then tore off all of the covers, stacked them and wrapped them in twine… A stack of three books cost me $2.10 (.70/each). Here we have my book bundles… and I think they look pretty fab. What do you think?
For the first time, I’m linking to these fabulous linky parties:
Check them out! There’s fun for everyone. Happy Monday!

They look so charming!! There is nothing like a simple twine and paper style…so prim and simple. I'd love it if you'd link this project up on my Marvelous Mess party!! I'll be picking one project to feature prominently on my sidebar for a week!! Here is the link to it:
