Lately, I’ve been seeing these sweet little stacks of cover-less books everywhere. Some selling for upwards of $30! The penny-pinching crafty girl in me knew I could make my own for so much less, and so off I went to the thrift store…
Half an hour and $1.50 later, I arrived back home with my three perfectly stackable paperbacks.
I tore off the covers, and rubbed the edges lightly with a damp teabag to give it an aged look. Then just tied them all together with some jute that I already had, and voila! Lovely new versatile decorating accessory. For $1.50. Yes please!

Very pretty! Nice job, Kristin.
Great idea! I love the flower on top!
my man came home with a ball of twine for industrtial purposes the other day. i don't think he knows it's going 100% to crafts like these!
Lovely!
Cute, cute, cute. I'd never have thought of it. May have to try it.
