I’ve been seeing some people turn old book slipcovers into street art—imagine a fresh design on a stack of releases, or a slipcover itself as a canvas for a mural. Think that could be a cool way to rebel against the usual packaging, or maybe a way to bring some quiet order to the chaos you paint?

That’s a pretty radical move, but I’d keep the slipcovers neat before you splash the shelves—no bleed through the spine, no misaligned edge. The ink should sing on the cover, not on the cardboard inside.
