Dress up your books in Felt for the holidays

December 8, 2013 by Linda Lanese

Dress Up a BookDeer template

How stunning is this book cover with Deer’s being the big decor statement for the past couple of years.  Find this tutorial at BH&G.  A coffee table book becomes a work of art with an easy felt cover. Open the book, and then cut felt longer than the book’s length. Wrap the ends around front and back covers; bond the edges and glue. Trace and cut out holiday-theme silhouettes like their reindeer. Glue felt cutouts onto the felt cover for an easy and fun decoration.  I made the template for you all; see below.
