Thread: Skin covered book

those are very cool. so small but realy turned out

Oh noooooo what happened to the pics?

Is it bad that I read this tutorial and then instantly went to find my bottle of liquid latex? I hope not.

Hope mine turns out as good as yours looks!

Just a few good pics left... Great tutorial! Already know what I'm going to do with the idea...

i used willys tut a while ago. what i learned was that one your book is in the sun for any amount of time it will never not be sticky again. i tried corn starch to fix it but no luck.

This looks like a really fun project!! I went to local stores but no one carries the latex.. Does anyone know of a good source? I am sure there is some on Ebay, but never had used it before I would sure like a recommendation!! And tips on useing it also! Please ...

Not sure if it's this thread or something else I read, that for non-appliance use (not attached to living things), there's a liquid latex carpet adhesive. I belive it said WalMart hardware section, but might try Lowe's, Home Depot, etc.

also a little easier for application purposes you can use toilet paper and or paper towels in place of the cotton balls.... just tear pieces off and "paint them on with the latex. Also can use latex paint ( off white or light beige) instead of pure latex. much easier to find for some people.
great Idea btw....
