DIY book cover clutch – A stylish fashion accessory
So, you will need a sturdy book with hard covers, glue, fabric, a handle kit, zip or buttons and a stationery knife.
DIY book cover clutch – How to
Carefully separate the pages of the book from the cover with a stationery knife. Stand the book cover on a piece of paper and draw a triangle around it. We created the template for the fabric inside.
Fold the fabric in half and cut around the template. After that seal the edges with a glue. Repeat for the second bag inset.
Attatch the handles with ribbons glued ton the book’s interior. Make sure that the handles are centered. Make also a small loop for the button. On the other side glue the button.
Glue the fabric triangles you made earlier. Cut a strip of a cardboard and glue it on the book’s spine for reinforcement. Glue the insets along the covers’ interior edges and the fabric lining.
