RHINESTONE NOTEBOOKS

Instructions

Step 1 - Prepare your paper

Choose the paper pattern you want to use from the Cowboy Disco Paper Pad. Place your notebook on top of the paper, open the notebook, and use a pencil to lightly trace the outline of the front cover. Add an extra 2cms around all sides for a clean fold. Cut out the paper along your traced lines.

Step 2 - Attach the paper to the notebook

Apply a thin, even layer of E6000 Crystal Clear Adhesive to the entire front of your notebook cover. Carefully place your cut-out paper on top, smoothing it down from the centre outwards to remove any air bubbles. Fold the excess paper around the edges of the notebook cover and secure it with more adhesive.

Step 3 - Create your design

Now for the fun part! Use your chosen rhinestone gems to create a design on the front cover. You can spell out a word, create a shape, or make a pattern. Experiment with different colours, shapes, and sizes to find a design you love.

Step 4 - Attach the rhinestones

Use the E6000 adhesive to carefully glue each rhinestone in place. A toothpick can be helpful for applying small dots of glue. Press each rhinestone down gently to ensure it's secure.

Step 5 - Let it dry

Set your notebook aside in a safe place to dry completely. The E6000 adhesive needs about 24 to 72 hours to fully cure, so it's best to leave it undisturbed for a day or two.
