[Handcraft] How to cover your school books more stylish.

Hey guise! My two last posts were more like dedicated to K-Pop fans. Today I decided to show you my side that is addicted to hand made stuffs.
Don't know what about you, but I'm tired when at school you get old school books and they aren't at their awesome condition. STUDENTS Y U NO PROTECT UR BOOKS?! Okay, sorry, book form anger just raised for a minute. So, back to my mission. Long time ago I saw a way how to cover your books cuter then simple plane covering. And i made a tutorial with photos. I hope this will help you.

So take your school books that you want to cover. All you will need is present paper, scissors and glues (or you can use sticky tape). I had three different present papers, so my books will be different from each other.If you have good drawing skills I suggest you to use plane paper (white or brown)so that you could draw something on your cover. So, take your book to cover, put it on your chosen paper and draw sketch:
(sorry for a bit bad quality) Don't forget, that you'll need to draw some parts that you will use to fold your cover. Now cut it and add on your book. Fold the pieces and stick it with glue. Okay, don't stick to the book cover, because later you will have to take it off. Unless this book belongs to you, not your school. Ah what ever, just don't stick to the book.So, that's all what you have to do. It's simple and it's awesome.
Of course, paper wont last for long, so you will have to change it. But, if you want long lasting one, take your plastic book cover, stick it to the paper and add it on your book. Just like that:
And boomshakalaka! You are done with you book covers. Now old crappy school books looks pretty and you can simple know which one belongs to you. Haha! Envy classmates!


If you have what to ask, don't hesitate. Thanks for reading.

See you really soon!
