I saw blind date books and thought it would be fun to create my own to give to the four avid readers in my life. I did not want to have to do all those fancy folds with kraft or wrapping paper. Therefore, I decided to create my own pockets and my own accessories. I sent these out recently and they seem to be a hit. The individuals were truly surprised.
I purchased my books on Pango. A great place to get used books. I used GoodReads for descriptions, as well as the cover of the book. I also made sure to incorporate some of my 6 x 6 paper! Thanks for stopping by.
