ATTENTION: Certain kinds of book pages make it hard to see the design. The music pages are very hard to read text over, as are any of the pages with large print on them (like Winnie the Pooh, for example, because the text is large and the spacing is wide). The music pages are the worst because of all of the lines and symbols. If you need to be able to read the text, please contact Neece so she can create a draft to show you BEFORE you order, and do not order the music pages as you will be unhappy with your page. As a general rule, the small print dictionaries are the easiest to read and people prefer them for printing text over. See the web address directly above to see a sample of each page. This will give you a good idea of what you will receive so it's worth the time to go check them out.

NOTE: If you order a design that has text in it, and you select the Classic Music Sheet, please tell me in the Note to EcoCycled during checkout that you understand it will be very hard to read. If you don't leave the note, your order will be delayed so that I can contact you and make sure you understand what you are ordering.

IDEAS FOR FRAMING BOOK ART PAGES THAT ARE NOT STANDARD FRAME SIZE:

A lot of the pages are a bit too tall and/or too narrow to fit in a standard 8"x10" frame. If you don't want to get custom mats, here is what EcoCycled has come up with as a creative solution:

1. Take a large sheet of colored paper that complements the printed page and put that behind the page. Put the page in front, and then put them both in the frame. You will see a bit of the colored sheet showing around the edges where the page is a bit too small. You might need to crop off some of the top and bottom of the page to make it fit.

This lets you see the whole page, including the edge where it was removed from the book for an interesting look. If you don't like the rough edge, you can trim it off carefully with a paper cutter, and then do step 1 above.

2. If you don't have the right colored paper, or the colored paper isn't big enough, we have a slightly different solution. Take the backing board from the frame and paint it with a complementary color around all the edges that will then show through. Or use a heavy piece of paper that you paint to put behind the page if the backing board needs some thickness in front of it.
Then put the printed page in front so that the painted border will fill in the space where the page is too narrow. Crop the height of the page if necessary (or you can fold it over if you don't want to cut it). Again, you can leave the rough edge to show the full book page, or you can trim it carefully with a paper cutter if you want a clean look.
