i love books, especially childrens books. so, i have bought a few of my favorites and will be able to get out about like 10 or 15 gifts out of it! isn´t that good in our economic disaster of a world!
first, i want to say that i don´t especially love to be cutting into any book, but as i know that this one is not a first edition or anything i feel more ok. i simply trace around the glass of a frame or a picture that i want to frame and cut it out.
frame. gift wrap. repeat if needed. done! voila! i have done this plenty of times and it is a hit every time. among others i framed 3 images from a book and then gave them as a joint gift with the acctual book.
there you go!
ps. have you seen the new my minds eye lines? wow!
Thank's sis! Pity you came up with this after my friends christening...
SvaraRaderaI love this idea! I used to do something similar with wall calendars. I have a kids book with illustrations that I love, but the kids don't care for the story. I think I'll have to make some cute art for my office.
SvaraRaderaI've missed your blog. I'll have to get caught up when my computer stops being stupid. :D
It's simple and sweet gift idea!! I just love it so much!!
