So do you think you are going to make the ‘Naughty’ or ‘Nice’ list this year? Why not make both. Today for I Love to Create we are crafting a list and checking it twice.

SUPPLIES

Tulip Fashion Glitter Shimmer Transfer Shapes

Aleene’s Tacky Glue Stick

Crafty Chica Paint – red and green

Old Books

First paint your books, one red and one green. You will need two or three coats of paint. Don’t worry no books were harmed in the making of this project, you could still read them if you wanted. Spell out the words ‘naughty’ and ‘nice’ in Fashion Glitter Shimmer Transfer Shapes. They are intended to be ironed on clothing, but they also glue to other surfaces like books perfectly.

When your books are finished set them out on the shelves to display. I love the way the books turned out, I might go back and add some cute graphics to the front. I’ll keep you posted!

For even more Christmas and Holiday decorating ideas with lots of color and vintage items, please stop by my blog https://jenniferperkins.com/ I hope you enjoyed this easy craft idea. The next time you are at the thrift store, flea market or yard sales, keep an eye out for old books.
