I made this for a Disney fan- I really didn't want to let it go! It is based on the Storybook at the opening scene of Sleeping Beauty- I'd love to go and visit the real prop at the Disney Archive Museum!

Get your materials together and prepare your crafting area. You'll need to put down some newspaper down as you'll be painting.
Cover the inside of the notebook with newspaper and deco tape (or scotch tape) to protect from the paint.
Then cover the outside seam of the book in deco tape too!
(I forgot to take a picture!) Cut out strips of laces/thick string and stick them down on the notebook using the silicone glue- to form the letters "Sleeping Beauty".
Then cover the letters with a layer of PVA glue using an old paintbrush- make sure you get in the cracks to help it stick to the book! Wait for the glue to dry- about 30 mins or untill it turns completely clear.
If you have it, then add a layer of mod podge to the front cover of the book.
Cover the whole cover of the book (back and front) in gold paint.
You should add about 3 layers of paint to make it nice and shiny!
Then add you gems! Even though mine were sticky back, I used a dab of silicone glue to stick each one down.
