We will always have surplus books in our home and perhaps the issue here would be how to get rid of them. In fact, ask yourself again and wonder if you should!
Books are good for reading and perhaps donating them or selling them to people who may need them is a good recourse. But did you know you could also turn some books into vases that could be good furnishings for your home?
All it really takes is creativity and imagination and you can come up with the unique home furnishings that may be better than buying any in the market. So before you dispose those unwanted books, see first if you can make use of them in any other way.
My idea of using second hand books came around after doing research into common unwanted objects. One of the most common unwanted objects that can be found at either charity shops, car boot sales and sometimes on the streets are books. I discovered that the glue in old books make them extremely difficult to recycle. Aware of this I challenged myself to turn the second hand books that I had been collecting, into desirable objects such as furniture, lighting and ornaments.
