During a recent trip to Restoration Hardware to buy paint for our kitchen makeover, I took a quick peek around and instantly fell in love with this look:
A closer inspection revealed a small stack of what appeared to be old paperback books sans covers and bound together in a neat little package with twine.
I was surprised to find a price tag – RH sells these bundles for $15 each! Are you kidding me?!

So I marched right home and instantly went to work. Okay, it was really about two weeks later in the middle of the night when I couldn’t sleep and was looking for something to do and remembered the book idea.
I pulled out some books that I was getting ready to donate and reviewed my stack of recent thrift store book purchases, too.
I was completely delighted (insert happy squeal here) to discover some twine in my husband’s workshop. Yay, Honey for having twine!
I was able to quickly put this bundle together in just a few minutes:
