I had been reading about and looking at alot of Altered art. So I decided I would give it a try, but I had KNOW IDEA even where to start, then I remembered seeing these book boxes in Mary Engelbreit's Home Companion Magazine so I studied them and did some more research on the topic and decided this would be my first Altered Art project.
I had some old book that were missing pages and pretty beat up so I gathered what I thought I would need, glue, paint brushes, and other odds and ends. I learned very quickly the technique. You DO NOT glue individual pages (They wrinkle and don't lay smooth) You glue the edges. Also a sharp exacto knife is key.
Here are 3 that I did.
