Re-Bound: Creating Handmade Books from Recycled and Repurposed Materials

A friend mentioned this book, Re-Bound by Jeannine Stein, to me and from what I can see online this book seems to have some interesting projects in it. I am excited to actually get my hands on a copy of this book. It is definitely going on my wish list for Christmas, although I am hoping to be able to find it used. Did you know Christmas is only 84 days away? I have a lot to do before than…ok now I am distressed, am I going to get all my Christmas projects done?

Well I have some things I want, some I will get and some I wont and who knows, some that I may be surprised that I get. I have been surprised in the past.

I Finally Received My Books

I guess there was a mix up. I had ordered the books from Amazon and under our accounts we had two credit cards so I apparently clicked the one that was expired so my order was cancelled. I had to redo the whole order and when I went to order the books I ordered before I found another book that I thought would be more my style and decided I wouldn't get the Pillowcase book.
