This workshop presents ways to re-use “good” books gone “bad!” These projects are designed to show off our love of books and make use (or re-use) of their shape and format.

Learn to use thrift shop books to create a variety of unique decorative and useful conversation pieces.

Projects include:

  • a Classic Book-into-Portfolio case;
  • a Book Photo Frame—made from the patterned covers of old Reader’s Digest Condensed Books, plus a bonus horizontal book photo frame;
  • a No-Sew Book Cover for your E-Reader or Netbook;
  • and 3-D sculptural folded book wall hanging and desktop cardholders.

Lee’s other “Repurposed” book projects will be shown and discussed so you’ll go home with plenty of patterns and ideas.
