{ so this summer i was a bit overwhelmed with my crazy collection of photos from throughout the years + my ugly matching blue photobooks that were falling to pieces every time you so much as turned a page .
i tried thinking of really fantastic ways to showcase photos in a sweet, organized manner . . .
i conveniently use to be the type to make collage after collage after collage until i'd used up every photo i had + would have an entire wall full of photos .
but with all the photos i have now, i'm quite positive a wall like that may give someone a seizure .
bit crazy .
s o 1 fine day as i gazed up on our bookshelf, i noticed all of my "readers digest condensed version" volumes that i had been gathering from thrift + antique store finds .
i came to terms that the likelihood of me reading stories like "naked came i" . . . "the peregrine falcon" . . . "peaceable lane" . . . + "microbe hunters" just wasn't that great .
so , i started ripping pages out - here . th ere . making room to fill them with my p h o t o s .
what occurred when i filled these beauties , loved for their classic tale bindings, gold edged pages, + lovely patterned covers , is o h . s o . f ab u l ou s .
take a l o o k . in a b o o k . }
