book wreath

i made one of these book wreaths the other day...made with this tutorial! it was pretty easy, although a bit time consuming. it was a good sunday morning nap project! and i used a nicholas sparks book that i'll never ever read again because it was so depressing, so win-win!

it's hanging in our master bedroom for now...i'm still working on finding some cute bedding. it's harder than i thought!

so, what do you think?

Cool idea, but I don't know if I could rip up any of my books. haha! I thought you just bought some bedding, not what you wanted??

very cool! It would look awesome with aged sheet music!

It looks great! I've been thinking of making one of these myself. Maybe I should really give it a try.

I like it! And I'm curious...which NS book was it? Good luck in the bedding search!

So cute, but I have to say I'm sad it was a Nicholas book. He's my FAVORITE. I could NEVER harm one of his books! Haha.

Wow that looks like it took a bit of time with all the folding! Cool idea though, I like Jenni's idea of using aged sheet music too.

The book was true believer...the woman in the end dies in child birth and the guy has to raise the baby by himself...uh....horrible ending! that's why I'll never read it again, hehe. I bought a comforter, but it's boring, I need a duvet cover..still looking...it's hard!
