This is an example of something called Book Art.
Some people like to throw books away if they're out-dated and will be of no use to read. Well, I've recently learned of some cools ways to recycle books in art. One way to do this is to paint it, glue it together and make it into more or less an art journal. It's really very awesome. You can add pictures, ribbon, buttons and really anything that depicts who you are.
Another way to recycle these out-dated books is to make tables out of them. You glue a bunch of them together to make side tables, coffee tables and probably even desks. It's a way of showing of art while recycling these perfectly good books.
Any other cool ideas for recycling books for art?
