Create and Embellish a Cookbook Cover With a Bamboo Mat

If you love Asian cooking and have a cookbook with Asian recipes, this is a lovely way to add a touch of the Far East to it. Just one bamboo mat was needed to make-over a cookbook and there was even leftover pieces remaining to embellish a tea light glass and create a napkin ring.

For this project you will need:

- a cookbook you wish to alter (make sure the mat fits the width of the cookbook with some overlap for the inside covers
- 1 bamboo mat


- paper napkin with Asian motif
- paper napkin decoupage glue
- flat and soft paint brush to apply the glue
- strong double-sided adhesive tape

Instructions:

1. Follow the step-by-step illustrated tutorial in the link below to create a cookbook and the tea light.
