Really, I can’t resist posting anything book artsy…even if it’s just out there in the way of book arts.
HankyBooks (www.hankybook.com) are either the best thing ever, or just too much over the top. I’m not sure what I think yet, although I do wish I could reduce our use of tissue in our dog eared apartment.
Maybe this will inspire you in some way, and so I pass it along to you. HankyBooks are reusable books of, well, hankies. You can use these for spills (like glue when you’re collaging! or a little bit of coffee that just dribbled on your journal page! or, of course, blowing your nose…)
On their web site, they explain:
A HankyBook is a Handkerchief book, whereby soft and absorbent 100% organic cotton pages are bound together within an AWESOME protective cover. This makes for a nose blowing experience that is clean for your hands and your pocket!
Basically, you use a page, turn the page, use another page, etc. When it’s time, you toss it in the laundry. Pretty cool, huh? But at the same time, think of the book artsy possibilities. And, no, I’m not thinking of making books out of stains and cleanups. Why not use a HankyBook as a blank canvas, to create your own fabric art book?
Please, go do something creative with this idea. Let me know what you do.
