I picked up an old book of nursery rhymes at a thrift store, a while ago, and the book was falling apart. It was quite a large hardcover book, but the hinges were broken and some of the pages were falling out. I got it because it was full of great pictures. I used several pages out of this book previously, but it is a big book! So I made more last week.
So these are my newest
recycled and repurposed notebooks, and each is entirely one-of-a-kind. The cover pictures, obviously, are repurposed from the old story book. The papers used for the pages in these notebooks, are off-cuts from other projects that I have saved. That's why they are all different, odd sizes and shapes. I was also able to salvage all the book board from my scrap box. They are all bound using a chain stitch sewing.

I remember those illustrations. I must have had that book!
So cool! And now I must own a book made out those illusrations. They better not be sold out yet.
thanks Cynthia, drydart, and lisapt!
lisapt, very cool that you had the same book! and lol, no they aren't sold out. I only have three of them for sale in my Etsy shop but they are all available - if you see one in the photo that you think you'd like to have, just let me know :)
They are ABSOLUTELY beautiful!
I love the one with a fish on!
This is a good common sense article. Very helpful to one who is just finding the resources about this part. It will certainly help educate me.
