Notebook Cover DIY

This is an easy tutorial for adding a new cover onto a book/notebook! It's cute and easy! Win win :D

What you'll need:
Fabric
Notebook
Scissors
A pen
Glue
Clothes pins


First you'll need to lay your fabric out and lay your notebook on top of it and measure. Make sure that you trace about 1/2 an inch away from your notebook, so you'll have extra to fold in.
Now go crazy with glue on the cover, but not to crazy or else it will seep through the fabric! Make sure to smooth out the fabric as you lay it on so that there aren't any bubbles.
After letting the cover dry, put a little bit of glue along the edge, then fold the extra bit of fabric in and clothes pin it down.
Once dried you can add any special little bits you want :)
Voila! You're done! It's super easy and oober pretty :D
