How I Made a Charming DIY Flower Vase from Old Book Pages

I love giving new life to old items, especially when it comes to crafting. Recently, I came across a fantastic DIY idea—using pages from an old book to create a unique and decorative flower vase. Not only is it a great way to upcycle, but it also adds a vintage touch to any room. Here’s a step-by-step guide to how I transformed old book pages into a charming flower vase. Materials You’ll Need Old Book Pages: Use any book you no longer need. The pages will create a beautiful, rustic look. Scissors: A good pair of scissors for cutting and shaping. Glue: Any crafting glue that dries clear will work. Pencil: For tracing shapes and folding guidelines. Paper Clip: To hold folds in place while the glue dries. Paint (Optional): You can use watercolors or acrylics to add color accents if you want. Step-by-Step Instructions Step 1: Gather and Prepare Your Materials I started by picking out an old book that was just gathering dust on my shelf. The older and more worn the pages, the more character your vase will have! Carefully tear out a few pages, enough to create the size of vase you want. Step 2: Fold and Cut the Paper To begin the base of the vase, I folded each page in half lengthwise, creating a sharp crease in the middle. Then, I cut the paper into strips about 1 inch wide. These strips will be the building blocks for the vase structure. Step 3: Create the Vase Base
