10 Things To Do With Miniature Books

Because I love miniature books, make them, buy them, give book kits away and sell kits too I thought you might like some ideas to put all those books you have to use.

1) Stack them up and add a glass or wooden top for a clever accent table.
2) Fill up baskets or boxes with a few books and put them all over in nooks and crannies in your dollhouse or room boxes.
3) Mix them in with collectibles in cabinets, book cases and shelves. They look great with flowers.
4) Print or buy tiny books (1:48 scale) and fill up a glass dome. (or print mine smaller by reducing the page on your printer)
5) Tie up a few books with ribbon or string and tuck in a love letter under the ribbon. Or a rose.
6) Make an attic or basement chair: pull off a leg from a cheap chair or use a broken piece of furniture and replace the leg with a stack of books.
7) Stack up books, drill a hole through the stack and make a lamp for a library. How to's on Youtube.
8) Make a decoupage of just the covers (yes, my free books work great for this!!!) Cover a miniature table top.
9) Make a bird house out of 4 books the same size and top with an open book for the roof.
10) And for the bibliophile in your dollhouse make a Christmas tree out of books !

There are tons of images you can Google to see many examples of my above ideas. So do Google and see if anything inspires you.

Here's my attic chair which lost a leg somewhere and became a home for mice besides.
