I put myself up for a challenge. To create a weathered looking notebook with the least amount of materials possible. I designed this book using many Tombow products and it was featured on Tombow’s Instagram account.
This book is perfect for Halloween as a potions book or wizards spellbook and it’s super easy to create!

Supplies
- Composition Book (or hardback book)
- Painters Tape
- Tombow Aqua Liquid Glue
- Tombow Brush Pens (or waterbased markers)
- Yarn
- Blending Palette (or a large sandwich bag)
- Sponge
- Packing Paper
- Gemstones (optional)
The part not shown in the video is how to make the side of the pages look stained and weathered. Here’s what I did. I colored onto the blending palette with various shades of brown markers. Then I wet a sponge with water, grabbed some color off of the palette and dabbed the sides.
