Are you plotting about how to spookify your house for Halloween yet?  I have a kind of creepy aesthetic when it comes to Halloween decorating, so I was almost a little giddy when I saw these witchy spell books by Corie at Design DNA.  The spines are labelled as spells, curses, and potions.  She used some decorative wooden books that she found at a thrift store, but you can also use a real hardcover book.  Most thrift stores have a large selection of books for under $1.  You know you're dying to make some for your next mantel display!  [how to make a witch's spell book]

Project estimate:

• Book, on hand or about 50 cents and up
• Paint, on hand
• Embossed stickers, $1 and up
• Googly eyes, on hand or $1

Total:  $1 and up
