Books done stylishly...



Who would have thought books could be so stylish and pretty. What a beautiful way to incorporate vintage decor into an elegant event. Vibrant, fabulous and ornate. Gorgeous ideas of the home too. Kellie xx

    I used to be the shyly-proud owner of that Childcraft Encyclopedia set.

    I remember when the salesman came to my Mother's door. Shock & Awe.

    great ideas for those beautiful books I always see in used book stores but never know what to do with them. I guess you just have to take chances and experiment.
