Months ago I purchased old books at a resale shop near my house and have had them on display on a 1937 record player purchased at a yard sale. The look is dated / adorable and I absolutely LOVE it!! However, they served no real purpose until today. This idea comes from Better Homes and Gardens: Do It Yourself and I thank them for that!!
The book casing stays untouched and therefore doesn't lose the traditional look.
Measure out the size cards you will be storing and draw a pattern.
Then begins the cutting process, this part can be quite time consuming with all the corners!
But end results are worth it! I can now store greetings cards in a convenient, hidden area :)
Also seen this done to make a case for a Kindle.
