Materials
White Cardstock (I prefer Staples brand 110 lb cardstock, but 60 lb works well too)
Access to a printer (a black and white printer will do!)
2-4 books with a 0.75-1-inch spine, and NO LARGER than 5.5" x 8.25" (I found my books at Dollar Tree)
Scoring Tool (optional but very helpful to create a perfect crease)
Free Printable (get 9 pages for Free in my library - access below - OR get the BIG Bundle here)
Instructions
Print the free printable, which is 9 pages.
Use a scoring tool (like this one) to score the pages on the indicated light gray lines.
Place the book cover around the books and arrange to create a phrase.
Wrap the bundle of books with twine, ribbon, raffia, yarn, etc.
