How to Make a Notebook Cover?

  • Choose a notebook cover design from the selection above.
  • Customize the text and download as a PDF document or an image file.
  • There are 4 different ways to make the DIY notebook cover.
  • The easiest method is to print the new cover and cut it to the correct size. Paste it so that only the top section of the original cover is showing.
  • Cut a rectangle slightly smaller than the notebook and paste it in the middle so that you can see the border of the original cover.
  • Print the cover on cardstock and remove the original cover. Cut out the new cover and mark where the holes should be. Make small holes and replace the old cover with your new cover.
  • Remove the original cover and paste it to a sheet of computer paper with masking tape. Make sure that it isn’t laminated as the ink might smudge. Print on the old cover to cover it with the new image. For this method, you will need to use a notepad with a white or light plain cover.

What can the free printable notebook covers be used for?
