That is SO VERY COOL...WOW!!! 🤯🤯🤯

[@YayasWhimsicalBrush]

That is so crazy! That book brought back such great memories! Thank you! We used to go to the beach every weekend during the summer at CORONA DEL MAR! I would even play hookie from Robertshaw to go to the beach. I live in Colorado now. It is going to be a high of -2° today! Thank you again, Kelly!

[@lizmullen6232]

super cute project! You got my mind thinking....I'm thinking christmas!

[@jackiepearson5505]

I know I watched this video sometime ago, but memory is slipping. It was fun to watch again. Since I've developed limited movement this type of project gives me something I can do. Thank you

[@LifeIsMessyImLearningAsIGrow]

This is such a clever idea! My husband is a English teacher. I’m gonna make this to decorate his classroom. Thank you for teaching me something new!

[@pambryant5818]

So different and beautiful. I got the word hope from pieces of metal for my breast cancer. I can’t wait to make this.

This is Beautiful! Love it!!!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@darlenemahaven4794]

That is so awesome. I’m thinking about making it for our school to raffle off for our band.

[@elainehaney5304]

Awesome So darn cute. Love your idea's

[@lorieennis-piklula9567]

You explain the details in a way that doesn't assume any particular level of experience in crafting. I'm sure other Newbies are just as grateful as I am that you teach with such kind thoughtfulness . The added computer tricks and your directives in where to find helps along the way is so so appreciated. Indeed your projects are "stinkin cute" and YOU are "stinkin precious!" Thank you sweet friend.

[@domarigavjusmom]

This is definitely an oldie, but a goodie!! I love this and it is definitely customizable for any decor or word.

So clever and just too stinking cute😘

This is really great! I wouldn't have thought of it but now I have plenty of .".

[@1215mdpc]

I had to stop and make a comment. Your videos and instructions are incredible! Let explain how awesome you are....I have a special needs daughter that graduated last year. There is not a lot for special need adults to do. I am always looking for stuff to keep her busy. First of all, you explain things so clear and simple ( wish you were my college professor!) Second your music is always so soothing which helps when trying to keep the attention and control the speed that a special needs person is dealing with. Third, your cost of the project is so reasonable and whatever is not used can go towards another project. Fourth she loves blessing people with gifts- what you show makes it possible. Fifth, it gives her so much pride. Thank you for your time skill and willingness to share!

I inherited a set of encyclopedia from the 70's so I have 24 perfectly matched books with gold colored page edges. I can have a lot of fun now.

[@joannerios7034]

This is a fantastic craft! The cost is even better! Most people have books on hand that could be used to make this too. You are so great at what you do. Thank you Kelly for bringing some joy during this difficult year.

Your video had a perfect view of everything you spoke about. Your speech was clear and the directions were easy to understand. I'm excited about this one! I think I will make a cross for our mantle. I won't cut a Bible but I have old daily devotional books that I can use. Thanks again. God bless! Lynne🍃💜🍃

I was clueless to what you were turning these books into! You have such amazing ideas!! I dont have much space for such a large finished project like you did, but I think I could narrow it down to our last name initial and maybe put some florals on the opposite page! Yup...that's what I'm gonna do!! Thanks again Kelly! Hugs! 💖

[@vickiemorgan7611]

Wow.. how amazing I had no idea what you were going to surprise us with.. this is a beautiful decore that would look beautiful anywhere.. keep bringing us your GREAT IDEAS.

[@luvsdvds]

@Pamela Brand ~~ One way to use just one book would be to do smaller letters so you can fit two on each page???? Or... you could do two rows of letters on the pages. I am just brainstorming here. :)

[@melissanoble1621]

That is really cool! Love it!

[@donnaleeclubb119]

I am always looking for ways to repurpose books such as Encyclopedias which are of no longer any use. This is not something I would do, but I am happy that you put forth this project and hope you will have others using books that are no longer of any use.

[@joanwiebe3654]

Very Unique!! You always have great ideas!! You’ve been a You Tuber for awhile - I’ve only been watching for a little over a year - but wow - people are brutal! Constructive criticism is one thing but to deconstruct on a channel is out right rude. “If you can’t say something nice, don’t say anything at all.” - needs to be remembered! Just wanted to post some love & support! Hugs ♥️

Kinda late seeing this but I have to say I like the dark brown behind the letters because it looks like a shadow of the letters. Great idea! Thanks for sharing.

Awwwe, isn’t that just adorable, what a lovely idea. I really like that, so nice. 🥰 Thank you Mrs. Kelly 😊

[@Dixiecharm01]

I really enjoy your videos, but I'd really appreciate it if you showed the finished product FIRST. It's much easier to follow that way, especially with some of the longer and more elaborate instructions. Thank you for taking so much time out of your day and putting so much effort into helping all of us learn how to make these wonderful projects!

[@hopebuckley2126]

Dixiecharm01 I soooo agree I just wouldn’t make this and I should have fast forwarded

[@joanbelmont5450]

Dixiecharm01 too much fluff for nothing.

[@gmjones7537]

Just go to the end of the vid to see the final product, then restart if you like it. That also helps me "get" the process a bit easier.

[@BootsieSweettarts]

I make craft videos and others but I had been wondering if I should show the finished project at the beginning. Thanks for answering that question. It takes a bit more planning but it does seem a good idea. 😊

[@WilmaVoermans]

I agree Its easyer when the endproduct photo comes first, but he.....so easy also to click to the end and than begin...

[@janepeters1941]

Wow what a great idea, thanks for sharing. X

[@1jmass]

So many possibilities for this project. Thanks for the idea. The letters in the darker paper appear to be shadows, and that is cool. Be careful with books from dollars stores. Since the text will be seen, be sure the words and content are acceptable.

[@TodaysSpecialMinis]

Interesting concept, but requires a large space both horizontally and vertically. I think this would look great using smaller paperbacks, like old romance novels. And this would probably suit a reading room, craft room, kids room/play room, daycare. I think it has a lot of presence and needs a large space to really shine especially if you use books that big. But it's a nice idea nonetheless! I can think of several places something like this would be really great - a classroom (i.e. WELCOME or the current school year), in a library (i.e. READ, IMAGINE, SHHH), or as garden art (i.e. GROW, BLOOM, SHINE), a nursery (i.e. SHHH, DREAM, LOVE, SLEEP), a play area (i.e. PLAY, DANCE, SING), or a church meeting room or home prayer room (i.e. PRAY, PRAISE, WORSHIP, BELIEVE).
