Protect Your Kindle and Your Book with these DIY Viral Cases!

If you know me, you know I’m always looking for other fun ways to use my scrapbook supplies beyond traditional layouts. So when I saw the gorgeous Ex Libris Galaxias collection, I immediately knew it would be perfect for a couple of bookish DIY projects! Though I also wanted to make scrapbook pages but I’ve just recently played with Traci’s Bookish collection so any book related memories are currently up to date.

Anywho, my first project is a custom Kindle cover insert. I usually stick to neutral or pink Kindle cases because they’re classic and pink is my fave, but using a clear case means I can easily swap out the design whenever I want a fresh look. It’s actually a simple way to personalize my Kindle and match my current reading mood without buying another case, plus, it’s a great way to play around your craft supplies if you just want a little quick creative escape!

For my second project, I finally tried making one of the viral hard shell book protectors. Using stickers from the collection topping if off with a glitter photo top before I run it through my Cricut, I turned a plain case into a sparkly home for my current read or growing TBR pile. It’s practical, durable, and makes carrying books around even more fun. Or, just another quick creative escape!

I love that Ex Libris Galaxias isn’t just perfect for scrapbook pages and cards, it also lends itself beautifully to everyday projects that book lovers can enjoy. I hope these ideas inspire you to look at your favorite paper collections in a new way and create something you’ll use every day.

Happy crafting… and happy reading!
