Make your notebooks fancy with this back to school notebook idea. I like it because it's like a 3D cover design and it's always up to you to come up with what kind of animal or character to use as a concept or theme. And it is something you could enjoy doing with kids.
Supplies:
- notebook
- 1 roll yarn
- hot glue
- white cardboard paper
- foam boards (optional)
- scissors
- drawing and coloring materials
- ribbons
- any scrap that can be used as decoration
- ruler
Steps:
- Measure the width of the notebook and mark the ruler.
- Neatly roll the yarn onto the ruler, beginning from 0 up to the marking.
- Position the ruler on the bottom part of the notebook and carefully apply a thin line of hot glue onto the notebook. Stick the rolled yarn to the notebook.
- Cut the bottom of the rolled yarn.
- Create more layers until you reach the top portion of the notebook.
- Now start decorating by putting on the eyes and lips.
- Next, attach the ears and some fancy ribbon.
- Since I'm just using scraps of everything, I just covered the back portion with a scrap of foam board. If you have enough yarn, continue to cover the back with layers of it.
- For the tail, make several wraps of yarn around your two fingers.
- Remove that from your fingers and tie the middle of the roll.
- Cut the edges to form a mini pom-pom.
- Tie the other end of the pom-pom onto a piece of ribbon, making a bow.
- Stick the bow onto the lower back portion of the notebook.
- Pull up the pom-pom from the back, down to any page of the notebook so it serves as a marker.
- Done!
