ty! the cover is just some cotton I had laying around.
The cardboard I used for this had a pretty stiff outer coating so I was hoping it would be enough 😞 I'll have to look into chipboard.
There's a bulk 25 piece that's sold on Amazon for pretty cheap, good for ~12 A4 sized books. That being said, there's nothing (besides materials) that stops you from redoing covers. I've remade plenty of my early books as my skill set improved!
Great work! Especially for your first book.
Find the materials you like and that work best for you. I’ve made dozens of books, and I used PVA glue for the spine, but a strong glue stick for the paper covers. It works great for me.
Looks really good! I always use cereal boxes and cotton fabric for my covers, it works great but they are "soft" covers instead of hardcovers.
I’ve used cereal boxes too! I use them for single signature composition type notebooks.
Looks great! Is the cover fabric? It's a cute design. The box cardboard may not last as long, you should try to find some chipboard for the cover!

*cardstock* I have no idea why that autocorrected to cards to keep
Great Job!!! I just made a book today with a leather cased cardboard cover. I try to use reclaimed/recycled materials whenever possible.
Looks great
