graphic - binder

You will need:

  • 3 - ring binder
  • Cover material
  • Batting (fibre fill)
  • Glue gun
  • Scissors
  • Page protectors

How to make it:

  1. Gather your supplies. Choose your cover material depending on what the book will be used for - baby book, Christmas, etc.

  2. Cut the cover material. Lay the cover material on a flat surface. Put the open binder on top of it. Now cut the material so that it is about 1 ½ to 2 inches larger than the open binder.

  3. Lay the batting (fibre fill) out on a flat surface. Put the open binder on top of it. Cut the batting so that it is the same size as the binder.

  4. Put the cover material (good side facing down) on a flat surface, put the batting on top of the material, and then put the open binder on top of the batting. See the diagram below.
