As many of you know I have a webshow at My Craft Channel called **Books and Crafts. Season 2 is well under way and I had to share my book pick from this week's episode. It has the best title! Do you agree with the title? I certainly do!

A Perfectly Kept House is the Sign of a Misspent Life, by Mary Randolph Carter

Books and Crafts: Upcycled Book-spine Vase

Finally! A clever, crafty, decor project that will look right at home in a library, study, or masculine-themed office. In this episode, Angie and Wendy from ellapublishing.com show you how to make a unique decorative vase by disassembling old books and stitching the fabric spines together.
