I did not come up with this idea. I'd like to thank How About Orange, for sharing the tutorial for making a bow out of an old magazine. All I did was apply this concept to the whole I-love-cutting-up-old-unloved-books thing that I'm obsessed with. :)

This was my first bow; it's not perfect. But it's cute. I made this back in December but the photos got buried and I forgot to post it.
