Absolutely beautiful covers that you've created for those books. :)
I was randomly reading updated posts and when I saw altered-book fronts I simply had to wander in and take a peek! I apologize for the intrusion, but I really like your work.
I recently took up an interest in altering books and their covers, but I'm still lacking in techniques and inspiration (so I've bought books, and then more books on book alteration) :P
It really doesn't take much, just patience and lots of scraps, glue, and tissue paper. I use canvasses for covers, ones you can get at Michael's or any craft store. I decoupage the designs.
I know the book buying impulsion, and I look forward to reading about your entrance into the binding books on your blog.
hahaha. sorry to laugh at 'hurt sarcasm', but that made me laugh so much. i totally envision you with your hands on your hips and this ridiculous pout on your face. dunno.
Haha, that totally reminds me of when I was in junior high and it was all the fucking rage to cover your textbooks. The coolest kids always had the best covered books. Mine always ripped. And then one day I discovered....elastic stretchy book covers!!!! Maybe that is why its not popular to cover your textbooks anymore, the stretchy took all the fun out of it.
