Book nerds rejoice! Some of the coolest book-based bags ever have sprung up on Etsy!
Etsy seller Smart Girl makes bags from old books. She carefully removes the cover from the book and works her magic to add handles and all the other bag bits.
I also love that Smart Girl includes the interior pages of the book along with your bag so you can give it a read as well as making use of its cover.
Excellent upcycling giving second life to old books. Love it.
