Lil Lady ~ Book Planter
::::::::: A vintage Reader’s Digest Book turned book planter with a hint of Annie Okley flare
Made from a vintage Reader’s Digest Condensed Book, Upbound single book, book planters contain enough room for several small succulents and a few mossy decorations. Not to be forgotten, I lined the planting hole with an illustration from The Gift of The Deer (one of the stories contained in the book). Finishing it up, I marked the last pages read with a signature Upbound tassel.
