TWENTY-NINE Books

“I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of any thing than of a book! — When I have a house of my own, I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library.” ― Jane Austen

These 29 books (plus the 30th one not shown), the bookcase, and the background and floor are all part of a craft kit I got for Christmas. It requires a LOT of cutting and folding, and some glueing, to make all these books, and I confess that I got tired of it long before I finished them all…most of what you see on the shelves are empty covers. The bookcase was easy to make, it’s just punching out the perforated shapes and folding the pieces. The kit comes in a box that looks like a book, and when you open it, you see this wall and floor printed on the inside, so that made it easy to set up this little scene. For the theme “Twenty-nine” in the Blythe a Day group on Flickr.
