재활용 재료로 미니북 만들기

Please read parental guidance concerning the use of specific craft tools. 

1.  7.5" long x 3" wide paper for the book cover
From an old card (birthday, holiday, invitation), cardstock (plain or printed), cereal box, or other thin cardboard. 

2.  Precut squares of paper that measure 2" x 2" square OR 2.5" x 2.5" square.  
These will be the pages of your book. They can be cut from old books, plain copy paper, watercolor paper, or lined notebook paper...  (enough squares that they will measure .25" when stacked)

3. Awl or ice-pick for creating 2 holes in the pages and outer cover. 

4. Needle and Thread (no shorter than 12" in length)
An embroidery needle works well.  The needle eye should not be wider than the holes you make with the awl.  
Sewing thread, embroidery floss, dental floss, or thin cording that fits your embroidery needle.

5. Thimble, a piece of leather, or padded material to protect your finger when completing the closure.

6. Optional button.  

7. Basic craft supplies: binder clip, paper, pencil, ruler, and scissors or another cutting tool (paper cutter or Fiskar's scissors)

8. A craft mat or wood cutting board to protect the tabletop where you work.
