DIY - Decorating your book cover



Notes books for school don't have to be plain and boring, or just brown or white.  You can be creative and make your book an original, know one will ever find another book on earth like yours. 
There are several ways you can do this, one, you can paint it (i'll leave you and your creativity to design that), or you can draw nature scenes, you can also glue raised insects to your cover. 
Adding accessories is easy, like making a closure band or a pen holder can be done without much drama (and I hope to do tutorial on this soon).

These are some cool, creative and unique ideas I found to decorate covered note books.

Decorating your note book 1

You will need:
a covered note book ( preferably a white one )
pattern on tracing paper
color pencils






























Place tracing paper on the book.

Trace the pattern unto the book.

Now trace over the pattern with the color pencils. 




Decorating your note book 1




 This way is done with flower and picture cut outs, embellishments, ribbons, sticker, markers and glue.




Stick the cut outs unto the book cover then gently paste a light layer of glue over the photo let dry. 
Draw or stick butterfly an a trail after it!




happy crafting!
