Homemade old book pages shelf liner project..

Hello everyone.. 
How are you tonight? 

Just thought I would share a little project with you that I finally finished today.. 

I persuaded Terry to take a couple of cupboard doors off.. 
I have a little white ironstone collection and I thought I would like the doors off..
But it needed something.. 
So, I made a little bit of homemade shelf liner..

I like it and it was so easy and quick to do.. 
I have a couple of sets of this old encyclopedias..


I like using the pages for projects.. 
In fact, I have a Pinterest board on it HERE..

But for today I used my punch that I bought from Michaels with a coupon... 

Measured the width of the opening and then punched the edges..

Set one in place and folded over where I wanted it..

Then used a ruler to rub the edge really tight so it would lay down..

I taped them together with clear tape ...


I thought about using my brown distressed ink for the edges but these are naturally aged enough, I think.. 

I thought you might like to see a couple of pages from 
the book..


My Dad used to sing this to my sister and I when we were little.. 
I even sang it to my babies... smile.. 

And then this dear little poem... 
I have such a love for old books.. 
Do you?

Well, that is all for tonight.. 
Hope all is well in your part of the world..
