audlyenuf, member | August 2nd, 200910 comments

Projects from the Pages of a Book

Sue Whitney, editor | July 21st, 200914 comments

I've always loved pages from old books, but this is one of my favorites.

I gave this to a friend for his birthday, but not without snitching a few pages first. I'm quite the gift giver!

This is made from an old drawer which, judging by the shape, likely came out of a sewing machine cabinet. I found this poor little guys behind some bushes in an estate sale (yeah I'm THAT kind...
