Monday Malarkey will return either next week or the week after, depending upon time constraints beyond my control. In the meantime, I thought I'd share a little something that Facebook friends enjoyed. I pass on as many ARCs as possible to other book blogging friends but sometimes nobody wants a book and it ends up in the recycling bin. Recently, it occurred to me that I could save the covers and use the pretty bits to make bookmarks. I'm pleased with the first results:

I love that idea!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Christina!
DeleteThat's an awesome idea. Love how they turned out. And you're not wasting good art. :) Great post.
ReplyDeleteThank you! Yes, saving good art is exactly what I was shooting for. I feel much better about recycling if some part of a book gets to live on.
