The store I'm most likely to visit at the shopping mall is the bookstore. There's something appealing about shelves and stacks of books filled with intriguing stories. Okay, I confess, I go there to read the tabloid magazines too. *winks*
Back in November, I was like a kid in a candy store when I found Fully Booked, a cool bookstore in Manila. I love how the books were displayed and how they used cardboard for wall art. :)
What about you? Do you love bookstores?
Playing along with Stuck?! Sketches.
This is so Cute!
ReplyDeleteCool layout! Yes, I love bookstores, but I love libraries much more. At bookstores, I have to pick and choose carefully. At libraries, I can take as much as I can carry!
ReplyDeleteOh so nice to find a kindred soul...I too love the bookstore...I can literally lose myself in one. Love the red flower..it is just the perfect touch to your project
