Words and books occupy a huge part of my life. Are they yours, too? Here are some tutorials to inspire in celebration of the books and words which enrich our lives.
Paper jewelry makers take note, a couple of these are right up your street. Use magazines if cutting up old books gives you heart palpitations!
The first bracelet tutorial though is not paper but an embroidered chunky word cuff shown above by Cassie over at the Drummbellina blog. It's a good project for those who are metal allergic.
Alma Stoller came up with her paper bangle tutorial which are a big hit with teens! This craft project uses protective varnishes.
Mandy over at the Mandipidy blog is a super crafter who came up with her Book Page Necklace tutorial.

ReplyDeleteI used to feel that way until I realized I threw away old paperbacks and magazines. They are recycled anyway same as if we made jewelry from the paper. But I do treasure special old books.
