13 Fun Ideas to Transform Mini Books into Functional Accessories or Home Decor

As an avid doll collector, miniatures have always been a fun obsession of mine. However, it seems like with the recent success of toy lines like Mini Brands and the acceptance of adults embracing playful hobbies, that miniatures are becoming more and more popular and mainstream.

 *Warning: Shameless Plug Alert!* I create printable mini book digital files that can be purchased here: Miniature Books.

I recognize that not everyone wants to build intricate doll dioramas so I experimented with a bunch of different ways that the mini book printables could be turned into functional accessories or home decor. The projects only required hot glue and some sort of attachment either to the finished book or worked into the construction process. These methods can also apply to other types of miniatures.

 Check out my list below and let me know in the comments if you have other ideas that would work as well.

1. EARRINGS

2. BAG CHARM

3. KEYCHAIN

4. PUSH PIN/ THUMB TACK

5. PIN/ BROOCH

6. CHRISTMAS ORNAMENT

(Read my blog "Turning a Miniature Book into a Christmas Ornament" here.)

7. GIFT TOPPER

8. FRAMED ART/ WALL ART

9. DOLL DIORAMA SCENE

10. CAR MIRROR CHARM

11. WALL HOOK

12. MAGNET

13. BELL JAR TERRARIUM ART

Did you try any of these projects? What are your thoughts? Any tips or tricks of your own?
