Here’s another great project that you can create from rescued books!
I absolutely love creating with paper—especially when I can rescue old, damaged books and give them a brand-new life as something totally different! Just look at these beautiful Whimsical Umbrellas! They’re made from upcycled book pages and are such a charming way to decorate for spring or any season.
Supplies You’ll Need:
10 book pages
Scissors
Hot glue
Piece of wire you can even cut a piece of wire from a hanger
Round lid for pattern choose the size you want it to be.
Small wooden beads or anything you want to use for the top embellishment
Needle nose pliers
Wire cutters
Let’s Make These Beautiful DIy Umbrellas
Gather your supplies and start by tracing your circles .
I made 10 circles total!
If you want to grunge them up or paint them with a little watercolor paint now is the time to do so .
If not you can leave them like this it’s totally up to you.
Now you can fold them all in half .
Now you can fold them again like this .
It should look like this .
I went ahead and drew a line so you can see where to put your glue . Line is only for you to see where to put the glue .
Glue them all like that and you should have these .
Now you are going to glue them all together again I drew a line so you can see where you place the glue.
Now you should have this .
Now you will need your wire . Use your wire cutters and cut a piece long enough so you have a nice handle and enough to add your bead on top .
Glue it on like this . Make sure your rounded edge of your paper is towards the top facing out.
Then again I drew a line so you can see how to glue your two ends together.
You should end up with this . . So darn cute!
Now add your bead . I did add a drop of glue to hold it down.
I also bent the top wire to curl a little too.
There you have it ! ❤️☂️
