I cut a large square around the book so there was enough fabric to fold over the insides.
Out of that square I cut this H shape (sort of) so there wasn't extra fabric to be folded in.
Then I started folding the top flaps in and gluing them into place.
And the sides.
On the front side, before I folded the flaps in, I sewed the flowers on. My friend gave me these crocheted flowers she found at a store. So cute!
Then I just folded the rest in!
And part of me made it in this post. haha
How was your weekend everyone?
Love, love

Ooh, that's a really sweet idea :) And I love your nails! ♥

Aww, that is super duper cute & that is definitely a great way to save $10 from just buying a fancy notebook. I love how the book cover matches your nails quite nicely too! I hate how bookstores tend to overprice their nice notepads, it's really ridiculous..

Thanks! It was pure coincidence that my nails match the fabric. =] And I agree, I hate overpriced items.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea, thanks for sharing!

ReplyDeleteThis turned out so cute!!! Th planner I'm using now is so dull and boring, I just might have to try this!

Great idea! I get one from my office every year, but it's lame and boring, so I'm definitely doing this. I even have some leftover fabric from a project. Thanks!!
