Friday Finds



Here's our newest fun blog game. I've called it Friday Finds. Every Friday we list something we've found that other book clubbers might like! It could be a new book, new magazine, a new craft, something new around Oceanside, whatever you can think of. I'd like to be able to tag each other to do this so we can all have a turn! I'll go first this week and name someone I've tagged at the bottom. If' you are up for being tagged, leave a comment so I'll know it and the other people will too!

So here is my first Friday Find:

The Book Wreath!



Yes, that's right. It's a wreath. Made. from. an. old. book!!! I'm dying. Why don't I already have one??! Click on the book wreath link above the picture to check out the tutorial. I think I could possibly be able to pull this on off!


This has to be one of the funnest craft projects I've seen in a long time! My friend Elaine (who is a librarian) tipped me off to it and I can't wait to make my own. I even want to try one with magazine pages or something colorful like a comic book for the girls playroom. What do ya think? Should we make some together?

Also, the blog I found it on, Living with Lindsay is TERRIFIC! It's a fantastic little crafty blog I know I'll be checking time and time again! I feel a house overhaul with my glue gun coming on...


Okay, for next week, I tag....SARA!

it's kinda funny to see this post because i just saw this craft this past week and it reminded me of you (vanessa) and the purses that your mom made with old books. i guess i should've known you'd find it and want to try it out - have fun!!! and post pics of the final project :)
