Do you cut the pages out of the books to right the quotes on them?
No, I do not. There have been some comments about me ruining a good book for the sake of this tumblr, however, this tumblr was made so that I wouldn’t waste these pages.
For Christmas, I made my friend a secret hollow book, to hide her secret items. In order to do that, I had to cut the centre out of a book. The book I chose (from Goodwill) is called Scarpetta, by Patricia Cornwell. Once I had cut all the pages out (about 200 of them), I didn’t want to just throw them into the blue bin, so I found another use for them: this tumblr.
I know the text on the pages has nothing to do with the John Green quotes (I never even read Scarpetta; not my kind of book), but at least the pages did not simply get recycled.
