As a retired librarian/media specialist and avid reader, I have to say that I 100% LOVE these ideas! I have done crafts with books before and have seen videos where so many people freak out about "destroying" books. To me, it is such an inspiration to take a book and use it to decorate with, even if it has been altered. These are all adorable and I am headed to DT to get some books and supplies! I don't know if I can pick a favorite, but my top 3 are the Nativity, the snowman napkin one, and the 1/2 melted snowman. Thanks for sharing these!
The book that is a floral arrangement is lovely! I couldn’t help but think that a piece of ribbon across the arrangement would make it stand out. Or one from each side and tie a bow in the middle would be another option.
I love how all of these turned out! I can't just pick one cause I really love them all! They turned out beautiful! Thank you, Barbara, so much for sharing these great ideas using books ❤❤
I love all of these books my favorite was the flowers and snowman one and since I have everything you used in this video I have to make some more this year thank you for sharing your creations.❤❤❤
Adorable! This is the first Chrismas DIY video I have watched, because I don't like Christmas and other hollidays. But these creations are amazing! ❤❤❤
The book vase of holiday foliage is delightful. If paired with those darling literary trees, what a charming display near bookshelves or for a teacher's classroom. So although those would be my favorites, I'm eager to try the other 3 also. Now I'll be collecting books from library sales and yard sales for the coming year! 😊 Thank you for sharing these adorable crafts!
Barbara, these are beautiful and unique ideas. I love them. The Nativity, the greenery book and the melting snowman are my favorites. My oldest daughter is an English teacher. Hope she doesn't get mad when I destroy a few books. 📚 Lol
Goodness Sakes! You have done a tremendous job on all of these the floral arrangement is my favorite, but that melting snowman is so adorable. I love how you give step by step instructions! TFS. Nana Brenda
Here’s a tip. To paint those small pieces, use a small gel plate ( I have a 5 x7 that I use). The gel plate will hold your pieces still while you paint. You won’t have to hold.
Wow! Very creative and you do such a great job of explaining. You’re very calming to listening to. Really enjoyed them all, but the last snowman craft was my favorite. ☃️
I love all of them they're all very nice and high and looking my favorite is the one with the manger scene the next one that I really love is the Facebook where you put the plants in😊

Books are not the Holy Grail! They can be wonderful, sharing ideas and artwork but they are not all created equal.
I love these! That greenery holder would be gorgeous made from an old hymnal.
Thank you so much! 💕

A cropidile punch would help with the hole punches and a protractor would give you easy graduate circles. Love the artificial floral arrangement 🥰

Here’s a tip. To paint those small pieces, use a small gel plate ( I have a 5 x7 that I use). The gel plate will hold your pieces still while you paint. You won’t have to hold.
Thank you so much for sharing that tip! I'll have to try it.
