I don't know if anyone will ever read this. I was in a car wreck this month (November.) I've been in terrible pain with some money limitation but birthdays and CHRISTMAS LOOM! I started crying when I realized I could make a lamp! I watched it FIVE TIMES. i feel a surge of inspiration and self esteem. You have a life time watcher for sure. To give to the lowliest person hope in their time of need is incredible. Incredible. Tell your children they are lucky to have such a clever mother. Thank you!
I do think up most everything I share in my videos, but I get inspiration from everywhere-things I see in stores, magazines, on Pinterest, etc. If I ever get an idea from someone else, I always try to give them credit.
The bird book page with the cut out hole that became a nest is just absolutely crazy beautiful, just when I thought I had seen everything. Still life to real life. 🐦🌳💝
Another hit out of the ballpark, Sherry. I especially liked the Robin's nest book diorama and the book lamp. Thanks for sharing your creativity and sparking ours!
Sherry you are the most talented person I have seen on RUclips. I love watching you make your projects. Keep up the most beautiful work ,so I and many people love to watch!
Sherry, you are a treasure! The adorable birdhouse you created from the little Yellow Book of Birds of America is delightful. It struck me when you showed the worn book at the beginning, how much someone must have loved that little book, and how much appreciation and good energy already surrounded it (if this is possible)! All of your projects are wonderful! I think my favorite is the Mother Teresa quote book with embellishment, which really touched me. Thank you for all you do! 💗
This must be one of my favorite episodes and I have seen them all as I discovered you from about episode 8. I love my treasured books so it will be hard to cut them, but this now gives me inspiration to do it. Even though I have loved the books in all of of your other videos, I am grateful you dedicated a video to this!!!
I was mesmerized throughout the whole video. I think my favorite was the lamp. I'm a voracious reader and have tons of books but none that I want to tear apart for a project. Those are fabulous ideas thank you!
My dear Sherry!! Someday, you will solve world peace with decoupage and a glue gun!! I can't believe how wonderful and creative your mind is!! Thank you for your ideas!! ❤
I love all your book ideas. So original and imaginative. Who knew you could recycle books in this way. You have unique diys. One of a kind which I love. Thank you
These are amazing ideas. As I'm getting older the ability to cut up old books is getting a little bit easier. This array of old book ideas certainly makes it just that extra bit easier ❤
I also lovebooks! My grand baby is5 weeks old, Ihave already created a start of her library. I never want books to become a thing of the past... Love you videos!
You are seriously one of THE most creative and versatile DIY crafters & decorators out there! I just love your videos! Thank you, you are an inspiration! 🙏🏻💖
I absolutely love books! I want you to know that your first project in this video brought a flood of wonderful memories from my childhood. I remember when my younger brother, younger sister, and I, as very young children in the 1950s, went to the five-and-dime store and found this series of books about birds. We were thrilled that we were each able to buy one for the quarter that each of us had! This was probably my first purchase with my own money taken out of my molded glass piggy bank. Several years ago, my sister, going through family things, sent me the original set of 4 books: the Red, the Yellow, the Green, and the Blue Bird books. I treasure these "little tomes" of knowledge of birds. I have enjoyed watching and interacting with wild birds ever since that purchase and referred to them often as a child to more about the birds I saw. The little bird house you made is cute and memories you triggered with this project are sweet! Thank you! 😊❤
Sherry, I remember the book lamp, one of my all time favorites of yours! The IOD floral transfers are very pretty on the books! Thank you for sharing 😊♥️
Good evening, Sherry! Your imagination is out of this world! What a treasure trove of unique and beautiful book upcycle ideas. I adore them all. Thank you for sharing your beautiful creations. ~Bobbie. xo
Your creations are beautiful and uniquely crafted! i love old books and own quite a few that are 100-125 years old. to this point i haven’t been able to decide how to best preserve and style these old treasures. you have given me quite a few great ideas to implement. Thank you for sharing your many ideas and techniques. 📚‼️
Hi Sherri, you are such a clever lady. I don’t know how you store it all in your head. You always think of something different to do with items that you have. I love all your ideas and projects in this video but for once I do have a favourite and that is the lamp. I love everything but the lamp is such a great idea and looks so awesome. Thank you for sharing your ideas with all of us, I get such inspiration from you and I must admit I’m now beginning to stand there and look at stuff I find in op shops or thrift stores and just try and imagine what I could do with the item. That is thanks to you Sherri. At least someone has got my brain working a bit quicker than usual,so thank you.
Oh my, I cannot choose a favourite because I loved them all. You have a wonderful gift of thinking outside the box with your crafting. I look forward to every one of your videos. Thank you for all of your amazing inspiration !
I'm fascinated with the lovely things you come up with in your videos. What a creative mind you have, I would love to go through your home and be nosey. Just love you to pieces ❤️. ❤️ ❤
This book video was absolutely unreal! So many beautiful ideas and I love that we can save books from the landfill by using them in other ways. They are treasures❣️
@@CharlieW-yx3rw : *buzz off.* this isn't a dating service, a coffee klatsch, a pick up joint, a "get your green card here" site, a "squeeze some money out of this old gal" site, a bootie call site etc. *buzz off and leave the ladies alone on these channels!*
I really like the idea of "bundling" projects both old and new that share similar raw materials. It will make it so much simpler to search through for projects that I might want to try rather than trying to go back through several years' worth of creations. Of course, I could use the search bar, but I liked this handy grouping. Thank you! (I was hoping you'd include the cookbook, one of my personal favorites).
What a fantastic video.,Sherry.Each project was better than the last. I loved everyone of them! My favorites were the shelf made from a book, the lamp and the IOD transfers on the edge of the books. All brilliant!!
Your outdid yourself again. All those ideas are wonderful and I'm sure a lot of your fans will be using your ideas. Thanks for sharing. You are just so wonderful. I wish you the best. Barb
Sherry, thank you so much for these wonderful ideas. I’ve been wanting to use some of my older collected cookbooks to decorate in my kitchen and you’ve shared some great ideas. Now to see how you decorate with clocks, which I love also!
I love this video...you are amazing. I know many people get angry if you cut up a book....but so many get thrown away no matter what you do, I'd rather use some of them for crafting and creating than none at all. Just my opinion 😊✌️🙏❤
Thank you so much! I have gotten some not very nice comments in the past when I have cut up books, so I wanted to mention how many books get thrown away every year.
WOW! I love these! I especially like the book lamp and the cookbook notebook. All of the ideas are very doable. Thanks for such a great video with absolutely fantastic ideas!
Thank you! I certainly appreciated the close ups of the specific steps in transferring the working parts from the thrift store lamp to the new book tower lamp….. incidentally, having a simple drill press could help you get a perfectly vertical hole for your book stack in that project…. I’ve gained a fresh appreciation for my husband’s power tools ever since I started upcycling the discarded books leftover after the library’s annual book sale! And just imagine what delights you could produce using a bandsaw!!! I LOVE mine for book safes and shaped/cut books especially.
Amazing idea as always! I love the side table with the belt and the "book" shelf book the best! You are so clever! 😎 All are so wonderful! Thank you for sharing!💝🌞💖
Your video is fantastic! So many incredible ideas that inspire me to use my old books! I just can’t thank you enough for so many wonderful ideas! You are truly amazing!❤
A table made from a book, combined with a belt. That is so far out, that had I had not seen it, I would not have believed it - nor would I have been able to imagine how gorgeous it is.

Sherry😮 do you really come up with all your crafts by yourself? If I had this many ideas 💡 I would never sleep! You are absolutely amazing
I do think up most everything I share in my videos, but I get inspiration from everywhere-things I see in stores, magazines, on Pinterest, etc. If I ever get an idea from someone else, I always try to give them credit.
@@CanterburyCottage well I get ideas from you but I don’t have any one to tell. 🤩😂
I totally agree. ❤❤
I love all of these ideas. I love books. The birdhouse would be so cute in a nursery or child's room using a children's book.
Thank you, Vicki! I love the idea of using a children’s book!
This was one of the best DIY for books I have ever seen.
Oh, thank you so much, Charlotte! 😊
I would never have thought to do this if I had not watched you and your awesome imagination!
I love the hometown street names. Very nostalgic for anyone moving away.
The bird house was a beauty you are just beautiful an so creative we love it
The bird book page with the cut out hole that became a nest is just absolutely crazy beautiful, just when I thought I had seen everything. Still life to real life. 🐦🌳💝
Thank you so much, Sandy! 😊
Loved learning how to repurpose beloved books!
I'm so glad!
You never cease to amaze us every week!! You’re creative ideas are endless!!
The bird book birdhouse is amazing! Sherry, I'm continually amazed at your clever ideas.
Thank you so much! I was really pleased with how that little birdhouse turned out.
Oh Sherry I love all the book transformations but the robin’s nest is my favorite. You’re so creative!
Every book upcycle was so well done and adorable! You do such a great job!!
Another hit out of the ballpark, Sherry. I especially liked the Robin's nest book diorama and the book lamp. Thanks for sharing your creativity and sparking ours!

You are so welcome! You are so right about that little bird book-it was well love! Now, I will love it as a birdhouse!
Spectacular! Im lost for words. I want to try everything!! Loved this posting - thank you . xx

Even though I have loved the books in all of of your other videos, I am grateful you dedicated a video to this!!!
I'm watching your new video, love what you do with old books.
The best one is the Robin and bird nest. All are great.
I was mesmerized throughout the whole video. I think my favorite was the lamp. I'm a voracious reader and have tons of books but none that I want to tear apart for a project. Those are fabulous ideas thank you!
Thank you! Maybe, you could use books from Dollar Tree.
My dear Sherry!! Someday, you will solve world peace with decoupage and a glue gun!! I can't believe how wonderful and creative your mind is!! Thank you for your ideas!! ❤
🤣 Thank you, Rhonda!
The bird book crafts are really cute for Easter/spring. I particularly like the patriotic book and the wall self, too.
Thank you, Charlene!
I love all your book ideas. So original and imaginative. Who knew you could recycle books in this way. You have unique diys. One of a kind which I love. Thank you
Thank you so much! I’m so glad you liked these ideas!
Loved all the different book styles!! So elegant looking!!
These are amazing ideas. As I'm getting older the ability to cut up old books is getting a little bit easier. This array of old book ideas certainly makes it just that extra bit easier ❤
I totally agree! A few years ago I would have felt too guilty to cut up a perfectly good book.
You are so awesome! You have no idea how you get my juices flowing!😊
I also lovebooks! My grand baby is5 weeks old, Ihave already created a start of her library. I never want books to become a thing of the past... Love you videos!
You are so creative! I have never seen the majority of these diys! Excellent job
These were great. I really liked the floral set of books with the decals.

It was so fun to see all these together

This was so fun! I have a weakness with books and want to try my hand at some of these ideas. Thanks!
Mind blown again! I loved the cookbook makeover, and the one where you used the transfers...pretty much loved them all!
Absolutely love every one of these projects.
Thank you, Michelle!
