It's that time of year! Back to school! But when the kids get home, guess who gets stuck with the homework during the first week? Parents do. Forms to fill out and books to cover! Yes, you can buy those stretchy covers or you can save those dollars for lunch money. Check out these fun ideas:

  1. Use your back to school shopping bags! I used an Urban Outfitters bag and kept the handles on.
  2. Maps from vacations are reminders of summer travels.
  3. Experiment with tape. I used masking and washi tape.
  4. Contractor's drawings have great graphics. Ask neighbors and friends who are contractors for some old ones.
  5. Spruce up a grocery bag cover with a pocket.

Star Wars Book Covers: Totally Geeky or Geek Chic?

School is back in session, which mean kiddies all over are getting new textbooks that need to be covered and protected from spills, pencil marks and doodles.

School is back in session, which mean kiddies all over are getting new textbooks that need to be covered and protected from spills, pencil marks and doodles. While text book covers are usually made of bright neon colored paper, the people at Star Wars.com have introduced the world to covers designed by artists Katie Cook and Grant Gould and inspired by the dark side. I happen to think they're cute for, well, anyone who needs book covers. What do you think, are these geek alert items or chic enough to make you the coolest kid in detention?
