Salvaging a Book + GIVEAWAY- Guest Post from Mou Saha
Hi
everyone, Mou Saha here from
Creating Keepsakes magazine. In spirit of
green crafting, I had been salvaging an old book into my current art journal.
Here’s a spread from that book.
Here
are my steps in visuals and captions.
Hope
you enjoyed my little process tutorial and would give it a try.
If
you like upcycling the stuff of life, you might enjoy the 4-week workshop I’m
teaching at Big Picture Classes called Lift Me Up!
