Create altered books to decorate with this Halloween. This is a sponsored post with Goodwill San Antonio but all ideas and opinions are my own.
I love to craft with books and book pages, and I decided Halloween is the perfect reason to create altered books. Goodwill San Antonio is my go-to source for books to craft with. The selection is huge and inexpensive! Goodwill also has a ton of Halloween merchandise out now, so I was able to pick up several fun items to use to embellish these altered books for Halloween decorating.
Supplies Used to make Altered Books:
- Large hardcover books from Goodwill
- Frames from Goodwill
- Embellishments
- Crackle Medium
- Gesso
- Stencils
- Paints
- Paint misters
- Hot glue gun
- Craft knife
Step one: Use gesso and stencils to add textures to the covers and spines of the books. Let the gesso dry completely.
Step two: Add crackle medium to the frame. Let it dry. (click on page 2 to keep reading)
