The other day my son came home with a reading book from school. The poor book had seen better days and was falling apart despite the tape found on almost every page. I decided to use my crafting powers for good and sent a note to the teacher saying I'd be very happy and willing to repair the book. She sent the book back to me and I used this nifty tutorial on Design Sponge to fix the sad little book.
First I took the book completely apart and squared up the edges of the pages that would be along the binding. Then I pretty much followed the tutorial. Unfortunately I did not have any regular masking tape so I had to use blue painter's tape to cover up the spine once I was done.
Have you used your crafting powers for good lately?
if not, you can bake me some cookies and send them to me. Just sayin'
