No, just the regular folded-in-four patterned ones you see in parties, they have like two layers of thin tissue, so before you decoupage you peel the non-printed side off, then cut the design you want and place it where you want it to go on the craft, and apply dituted glue over it, the water in the glue sort of penetrates the tissue and sticks it in place. The first time I tried this I applied regular glue directly to the napkin and made a huge mess and the final product was all crinkled up and awful... do NOT try that :)
So great you like the idea, I've decoupaged practically everything here, it's so simple and the effect is so beautiful... a craft shop nearby sells this gorgeous napkins where you can buy them by the unit, I found about that like days ago and feel dumb too, cuz I used to get the whole package which was silly as I only needed 1 sheet :)
In that case just paint the cover or decoupage the title with some decorated napkins and glue, that way no one will ask any more embarrasing questions =)
OOH can't believe you cut a book to make a hiding 4 money! I would have never thought of that, being such a book lover =) I keep my money in an Alphonse Mucha box... I have 3 sizes and they're sooo gorgeous, I might post some photos on my blog 4 you to see...
Sorry...
