This one goes out to all of you bibliophiles out there. Everyone can make a journal, but their book journals were by far the coolest I have seen.Each journal is a one-of-a-kind creation made from an old vintage discarded book. It is gutted out and transformed into a unique journal which contains the essence of the old book by incorporating art, pictures, library cards, etc. into its pages. Some even had inscriptions from the past owners.This just might be the perfect  gift of the season.

A couple of her designs look like lung specimens in a way.The fine strips she cuts out of the books and other paper objects are all artfully arranged and sometimes it is not obvious they were once books.Source: englandgallery   Via: weburbanist

While most people regard unsolicited mail as an inconvenience, this artist saw it as a free tool for self-expression.Her ultra-modern portraits are stunning too, her talent undeniable. The artist has even created custom portraits—could there be a better gift?“Every little ‘tile’ you see was once advertising ephemera and/or junk mail,” she says on her site “I recycle canvas and frames. Why throw them in a land fill when they can be recovered and reused?”Imagine having your resources delivered to you for free, on a daily basis, turning them into art that reflects your vision of life, then selling your work to other art connoisseurs who appreciate them.The New York born artist has beautiful life philosophies which she tries to portray through her art work.Check out her work!
