Quick DIY Easter Decor Book Stack

Enhance your Easter decor by creating a simple Easter-themed book stack.

This is a simple 'put-together' for last-minute Easter decor pizazz.

It took 15 minutes from start to finish!

All you need are three small-sized fiction books and quality easter wrapping paper.

Plus some faux eggs, a bowl of walnuts and a small rabbit to complete the Easter vignette.

I have not used any sellotape or permanent glue for this project, which means there is no damage to the books.

The secret is just folding the paper, with minimal cutting using scissors at the spine, and then tucking the paper between the front and back covers.

Changing the decorative papers for a new theme is easy whenever you want to style a new book stack for another occasion.

I used three books for my stack.

I chose some pretty easter papers to cover the books.

Now let's create the 'Easter Decor Book Stack':

Step One:

Cut the paper to fit the book, allowing fold-over margins.

Step Two:

Begin creasing the papers in place.

Tucking under the cover.

At the spine (top and bottom), cut notches on the paper as shown. Cut the notch off close to the book spine both ends.

Fold the top corners like an envelope.

Tuck all edges in between the front and back covers.

Tidy up the internal corners by folding small envelope corners so it looks tidier than a flap.

Step Three:

Stack the books and use easter themed accessories to create a sweet vignette.

You could use the book stack as a centre-piece on a dining or coffee table, a sideboard, on a bookshelf or a side table.
