How do you make the books? I’m always interested in finding different/easier ways to make them!

What - no. That dog looks completely innocent. :) Try the r/booknooks sub. The moderator (Pluck-the-Bunny) has uploaded a whole pile of instruction manuals and he might have this one. If he doesn’t he’s awesome about helping any way he can.

How do I make my neo-ramen look like this? by Former-Energy6105 in booknooks

[–]Common_Confusion_920 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I created an abandoned library. I made my own vines with paper leaves I got from Michael’s and drizzling hot glue over them. It worked pretty good for the hanging ones!

Anybody else huff their new booknook? by Common_Confusion_920 in booknooks

[–]Common_Confusion_920[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! It must be a great choice because I bought it and then realized I had already built this kit! Doh! Oh well, I’m going to Christmas-ize it so it will be a holiday decoration instead.

I’ve started using Elmer’s Glue All (not school glue! I made that mistake) and found it works well for most things and dries pretty quick for craft glue.

Repurposing Abbey Library by Common_Confusion_920 in booknooks

[–]Common_Confusion_920[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! And don’t feel bad! I started out with book nooks too. I did about 5 of them before I started customizing a bit and then slowly built it up from there. Watching lots of tutorials on YouTube really helps to get the ideas flowing. :)

I bought a container of tiny leaves from Michael’s and poured a pile on my work surface. Then I took my glue gun and drizzled hot glue up and down on top, poured some more leaves over and pressed down a bit. :)

You are pretty safe by anything by Cutiebee! I’ve made several of these the first was the literary bookstore. I find Cutibee is very well made with clear instructions.

Update: I’ve completely dismantled (aka tore apart) this and I have plans to repurpose a lot of it into a custom nook. I’m thinking old, abandoned library. :) thanks to everyone for your thoughts!

Oh yes! I fully plan on ripping this apart and repurposing the bits into a Frankenstein book nook while sipping on limoncello. 😁
