Mixed upp magazine

Sunday, October 1, 2017


This was made for Mixed Up magazine and was published in July issue.

I love old books and I use lot of them in different projects.
Here I cut niches into an old book to create little shelves.
Every book has a story and I want to keep that story alive.I can also write my own story in small mini books.For this mini books you can use all your leftover papers -they are perfect for using up scraps.
To decorate the books I use old jewelry and other items for my"treasure box".They are really tiny at just 4.5 x 4 cm,with a 2cm spine.
When I start a project like this I have never a plan: I like to go with my intuition.
