The event
On "leftover love books": the book shows how old books can be used, whether individual pages, covers, spines or the whole book; plus useful info.
Content is divided into:
- an info section (where to find old books, what books are made of, what tools it takes,
plus some tips)
- practical things made from books: e.g. side table, handbag, magazine holder
- lamps
- Stationery: e.g. gift bags, bookmarks, pop-up card
- Wall decorations (e.g., folded birds, large paper dahlias), decorations to stand on (e.g., Book Nook,
planted book), decorations to hang (e.g. mobile), seasonal decorations (e.g. vase, fruit from
books, angels for the Christmas season)
