Bed Rest crafting

I saw this craft on Martha Stewart yesterday and had to try it...I think it turned out adorable! It's a great way to use old magazines.

Step 1:

Fold top right corner to spine.





Step 2: Fold right edge into spine so it looks like a tie.



Step 3: Fold up bottom triangle inside step 2 so that it makes a flat bottom. Repeat with all other pages.



Here's how my first one turned out...cute, right?



I found it easiest to do steps 1 and 2 at the same time then go back and do step 3 all at once. You are supposed to then spray paint them and add glitter spray...we'll see if I can convince James to do that for me despite his "no glitter" policy (which is just like my Dad!)

Here is how Martha's turned out:
