book art

i finally finished this project that i started a couple of months ago. i found some old children's books at one of the thrift stores i go to often and wanted to turn them into art for our soon-to-be kiddos room. of course, it needed to be gender neutral, since we don't know if we will have a boy or girl placed with us.

i also found the frames at the thrift store too. they had never been used! i love finding great deals!

so, this is what i came up with... art from...

peanuts

curious george

cat in the hat

and...where the wild things are



these are just some of our favorite stories!

we love books!

  2. Love what you have done with the old book art! It looks amazing! I did something simular in my little boys' room...I photocopied a few Dr. Seuss pictures out of some old books and then framed them. Love it!!!
