    I am a retired teacher like Ms. Bowen. I love books...to read, to decorate with and just to hold as they hold a part of our history. Your bookends are genius and I will try to do this.😍

    I want to get the book "Uninvited" sounds like a great read. I love how the bookends turned out, and the birdhouse is beautiful. It looks like a church. Thank you Lisa for sharing your amazing talent. God bless you and your family!

    I love the book stack. What a great idea to wrap the bookends with the actual book. I would never had thought of that. Thanks so much. 📚

    I love this idea. As a retired reading teacher I used to cringe at any book changed but now I use books in my decor as much as possible. I also use them to make junk journals. There is something about books that draw me in. The bookends you made are gorgeous. Love how you fixed the books you read as well.

    Such a neat idea for bookends. I'm sure I have some of the metal ones and I know I have books to use. 🙂 The women's Sunday School class I'm in is currently working through her study, Finding I Am. When we take suggestions for our next study I think I'm going to suggest Uninvited. I find that most women I know (definitely including myself!) do struggle with the issue.

    What if you put the book end on the other flap, letting the book be mostly to the inside of the book end. Do you think it would work and require less glue
