If you don’t know what a “book nook” is you’re in for a treat! It’s a decor item for your shelf that is a mini-environment of your choice. You can purchase them ready-made, in kits or you can make your own. My daughter made this one for me after buying a blank paper mache book box frame. She then created her own filling… so to speak, using a bunch of miniature doll house items and foliage. The outer book leaves and design were made with air dry clay.\u00a0 An led light, which is optional, was added!\u00a0 I wanted a whimsical feel… of course, which she accomplished beautifully. It fits into my home office library makeover with a window seat perfectly! The sky is the limit on what you can do with these!<\/p>\n

These can be made from scratch or you can purchase a blank book frame. This one was made with the type of paper mache book box shown below. It was then adapted for the nook. Cardboard frames are also available with the spine already cut out.<\/p>\n
