Cheap and Easy Crafts

3. Take a 5” x 4 1/4" piece of decorative paper (sample shows a flower print) and adhere to


tag.


4. Take a 4 5/8” x 2 1/4" stripped paper and adhere to top on decorative paper on tag front.


5. Punch and open hole at left of tag. Make sure all the rest of the inside tags and the back


tag also have holes. Thread fibers and ribbons through the holes to bind the book. Do not


trim or knot these fibers and ribbons just yet.


6. Instead of knotting the fibers and ribbons together (like is usually done with tags) you are


going to glue them together. Dab small amount of glue to the tag pressing the


fibers/ribbon onto it and lightly glue the fibers/ribbons to each other. Allow to dry. This


will give a smoother look to the finished tag book. You want to make sure your ribbon is


laying flat so you can adhere some paper flowers to at least one of the strands.


7. Finishing touch is the paper flowers. See photo for sample’s placement or create your


own. Note that paper flowers were adhered to the ribbon too. Trim fibers and ribbons to


liking.
