Preparation of the cover To create your personalised cover, get the above-mentioned materials; using the dimensions of the Bill book as your starting point, you will use the following formula to calculate the required dimensions and borders:
Making the cover Lay the coating paper back to front on a flat surface, square it using the given formula, then mark with the pencil the reference marks where the hardboard panel will be glued and glue the whole surface of the paper;
correctly position the hardboard cover.
Cut the four corners of the paper, leaving 2 mm distance from the corner of the hardboard panel,
flap the paper borders towards the inside of every side of the cover, beginning with the long ones (upper and lower) and then flapping the short ones (right and left sides).
Verify that there are no air bubbles on the external side of the cover; if necessary, remove them by exercising a circular movement with a soft cloth.
Cut 20 cm of cotton or satin string (one for each cover) and stick it on the inner part of the covers (at approximately 20mm from the edge), on the longer side and at the centre: you will then have a proper closing with a knot.
Casing phase and pressing of the bill board in the already made cover Put some glue on one side of the bill board and place it on the cover, positioning it at equidistance of all sides.
Repeat the same operation for the second side.
Finally, put the BILL BOOK you have made under a press (for example under a heavy book) for twelve hours by inserting some cardboards in its pockets in order to create thickness.
