Mother's Day Gift Idea Day 3

This is also a very cool idea.  Our son, Ben, made this for us.  I think it could be a very creative Mother's Day gift but really it could be for any occasion.

Ben used an old book...


...and cut out squares through many, many of the pages.


He set a family photo in so that it was framed by the cut pages.

Isn't that cool?
I love it!


I think it was rather painstaking work but I really appreciated it.

Susan,
That's a great idea! I have a few books that the only value is the cover -- and I thought doorstops were there only use.

Have a great Mother's Day Weekend.
