Bookish Finds: DIY Craft Edition


Bookish Finds is a feature here at That Artsy Reader Girl, where I highlight awesome bookish things I come across during my exciting life.





I LOVE being crafty. And I love being bookish! I was delighted to discover that there are ways to combine those two elements of my life. I've compiled some awesome craft projects for bookish people that I've come across on Pinterest and the internet in general. Hopefully I can make all of these someday!

Cover bricks in fabrics that match your decor for some awesome, cheap bookends!


So, what do you think? Have I awakened your inner craft bug? You MUST let me know if you do, or have done, any of these!

  1. The table runner looks pretty, but I wouldn't make it since I use all of my tables to eat and books get pretty germy.

  3. I think the table runner is gorgeous but I'd be so worried about ruining it! But I do love the book wall art with the bird print, I want to try doing that but I think I'd be sad about ripping the pages out of a book ;)
