Part of me loves the mismatched, old and battered look of the books on my bookshelves – books from thrift stores, passed down by my parents, mementos worn out with love from being read and re-read for years and years. But the other part of me says mementos, schmentos, toss the smelly old books and embrace the gorgeousness that is the linen-covered Penguin Classics line.
One copy of each, please. With extras of Pride and Prejudice and Little Women. Those ones will get worn out quickly.
I really like the covers of these books as well! They are super pretty.
I love the penguin classics line! So beautiful. Reminds me of what books should be.
Hmm.. I’m trying to imagine it and this picture could make a great skirt design. I love the patterns and the colors!
Totally! A straight, light wrap skirt world look _fabulous_ with book spines as a print.
I’m not a wallpaper sort of girl, but if I could find paper done in the same print as these covers I think I could be swayed…
