Nerd Girl Fleur’s August Tutorial – Back to School Cool

Step by Step paper crafting tutorials

I love back to school, not for the early mornings, making lunches and constant rushing around lol but for all the amazing back to school supplies that come out.  I usually buy more for me than I do for the kids

This year I thought it would be fun to make some Back to School supplies even cuter with my stash of scrapbook stuff.  Most of these are super easy but so cute! You will need some notebooks, paper clips and pencils.

First take some plain old pencils, paint them with acrylic paint and add stickers, washi tape, write sayings, decorate how ever you want.  These were so easy and I love how they turned out.

Second I made some cute paper clips just by simply adding the Crate Paper Poolside buttons to the top of some gold paper clips.  Again super easy and super cute.

Last but not least I decorated some notebooks using the Crate Paper Poolside collection and gluing some patterned paper to the front and adding some fun embellishments.  Just make sure you use a really strong glue for this project as it will be handled a lot.

Do you decorate your supplies?  Please share with us if you do.
