Do you love repurposing old things into something new and pretty? Then you’ll probably love these book page projects! The fact that book pages are paper makes them easy to use in a variety of projects, and the text on the pages adds an extra level of visual interest not found in normal solid-color paper. Also, these are incredibly inexpensive ways to spruce up your decor. Definitely decorating on a dime!
Of course, there’s no need to tear up a good book to make these projects! Instead, you can go to garage sales, thrift stores, library book sales, and Goodwill to find some beaten up/damaged old books. Not only will you have a large variety of books to choose from (large text, small text, illustrations, etc.), but you can get them at great prices!
