Got some beat-up books?

You’ve got free craft supplies!

I know, I know… some people get VERY upset about book page crafts. But seriously, are you ever going to really read that set of Reader’s Digest Condensed Books? Is anyone? Yes, The Secret Garden is a beautiful book, but do you really want a copy with the cover torn off and grape juice all over chapter 3? Does anyone?

See what I mean? There’s definitely a place in this world for book page crafts.

To get you started, check out this vintage book page star from House Revivals. It’s festive enough to use as a Christmas decoration (even a tree topper!), but it could also make a fine Fourth of July decoration, or even a year-round piece.

And now that you’re inspired, check out the rest of these tutorials. There are a lot of book page projects out there in the world!
