Instructions

  1. Small 2011 08 23 19.19.12 1314229469

    Assemble your supplies! You will need *5 Sheets of Felt Fabric *2 Pieces of 10inch Ribbon *Scissors, Pins, Ruler, Marker/Pen *Sewing Machine OR Needle & Thread OR Hot Glue Gun

  2. Small 2011 08 23 19.23.26 1314229625

    Lets Get Started ^_^ *Lay your piece of felt that will be the cover of your "book" face down. *With your ruler and marker, mark the halfway point on the sides of your cover fabric. *Lay your ribbon pieces where you just marked your fabric. *Then place your inner cover fabric over the ribbon. *Pin everything in place.

  3. Small 2011 08 23 19.34.27 1314231684

    *Sew all the the way around the edge. If you dont have a sewing machine your can hand sew it together. OR if you dont sew well you can just use a thin line of hot glue to bind the "covers" together.

    *Next lay out your "pages". Trim them to fit inside your "covers". *Pin your pages in place. *With your ruler and marker mark the center of the pages. Going top to bottom. *Sew (or glue) the pages together. With my book I wanted to be able to show all the layers in the pictures and I was working with sheets of felt that I had already cut pieces out of for other projects. So mine are all different sizes and have different edges, but I think it looks cute. You could do yours either way, its up to you :)

    This step shows what your book should look like! You can add in your earrings by poking them through the felt pages :D
