For the last few weekends, I have posted
some beautiful images from around the web.
I hope you are enjoying them….
This week, I have collected book bundles…
There’s something so comforting yet intriguing about an old book…
Each tells a different story; not only literally written within their
pages, but also by the many hands that have held them…
The tattered covers holding fingerprints of the past…
…and each page whispering a secret to those who listen closely.
With so much technology around us, will these
beautiful treasure holders become a thing of the past?
I hope not as there is nothing like the scent of book pages and getting lost within them.
As I wish you a peaceful weekend, please keep those in Japan close to your heart.
warm hugs,
Lucy

Lovely post. I am a book lover and can’t imagine my life without them. Hope your weekend is wonderful~ xxoo Diana
Such a beautiful post! I love them too!
In 2008 hurricane Ike put 5′ of the Gulf of Mexico in my house. The most tragic loss was my books. I taught elementary school for 30 years. I was saving fabulous and collectible children’s books for my grandkids. I had my grandfather’s books that were over 100 years old. I have started collecting again, but those books are not replaceable. I display all that I have.
Beautiful!

You found some beautiful pictures. Books are like scars, the all have a story to tell.

I’ve been seeing so many book bundles used in decorating lately, especially without covers. It really is so pretty. Great collection of images, Lucy.
Such a cozy and creative winter idea! I love the warm textures and charming handmade details. A Website Mobile View Checker is also really helpful for viewing inspiring craft tutorials like this smoothly on mobile devices.
