Read Books

Bold, graphic words on vintage objects.  I love the look!  This project was VERY difficult. I knew in my mind how I wanted it to turn out but I didn't know how to accomplish it. I used a LOT of x-acto blades to cut out the "read" portion to let the text of the book show through. I still need to figure out how to make this project easier because I've been purchasing great vintage books at the thrift store with the intention of doing more of these. Maybe my dremel? A wood burner?

This book is now available in my Etsy shop https://www.etsy.com/listing/120702410/carved-vintage-book-reminder-to-read
