Shhh..... if you want to keep up the mystery :) or don't want to show - what you're reading... easy book covers is the answer! DIY BOOK COVER



Easy book covers to make. When I take a book with me I usually don't want to show what I'm reading. Especially when I'm reading something “heavy” or some sort of selfhelp type books. So I'm reading of.... “how to manage when you have experienced some specific trauma in one's life”, now. And I really won't want some unknown fellow to start conversation of the book ;) so I found myself to trying figorously to hide the cover of the book. :D 



Do you remember when we make covers to our schoolbooks? I found some old posters which were perfect to this project. I lay down the book to the poster and started to fold the poster. Then I cut the poster roughly to the right size. After I had folded the poster as a cover, I put some “pakage tape” to the the edges. Voila! It's finished! You could use washi tape if ou like. Also you could use any kind of paper/poster to do covers but it would last longer and will be sustainable if you use hevier/thick paper.



I fold some extra page to the end of the cover so now I have easy bookmark as well. :)

Pretty cool!
