Suggestions for a creative way to “bind” a book for a school project?
So i have to make a simple “ABC Book” for a project for my biology class
It’s 15 pages, including the cover & back
So its really not that thick
I cut the 8.5×11 paper in half so its only 5.5×8.5
I need to make it like a real book but i want to be more creative than just stapling it 3 times along the edge because once you start opening the pages the edge looks really ugly
Any suggestions?
Maybe binding it like a composition book?
I dont want it to be to complex or to have to spend any money… just using simple household craft materials
Thanks!

You could sew it with yarn or ribbon. You may want to punch holes in the paper first with a hole punch or even a nail, about 1/4″ apart, then use a running stitch, whip stitch or blanket stitch.
To bind it like a composition book, the pages would need to be folded in the middle, then sewn down the fold.
You could punch 3 – 5 holes in the side as if to put it in a binder, but tie bows in the holes, or put keyrings through the holes.
You could try metal rings. Just punch your holes (as few as 2 as many as 5) and use either old key rings that are the same size (just the metal O part) or buy some. They are very cheap, I’m talking 6 for $2.00 and they will look really nice. You can get them at wal-mart or craft stores. If you go with some old key rings then you can cover them ribbon or paint them. Good luck on your project….Hope you get an A!
