I have completed a few pieces where I’ve managed to show almost the full book. My first was a chair using the book The Cat and the Hat, by Dr. Seuss. After repainting the chair so that the story pops, I cut out all of the pictures and text. With the help of painter’s tape, I positioned and re-positioned the story on the chair until I was happy with the look.

After all of the pieces fit, I glued with Mod Podge and painted colorful borders around the text, using the familiar colors of this classic Dr. Seuss book. I used every part of the chair, including the bottom.

The customer who bought this fun, colorful piece has it in a little children’s reading nook at their summer cabin.
