I have been getting a lot of questions on Tumblr about the Lilly Pulitzer binder covers that I made last year for school. Here is a step-by-step tutorial on how to make them!!
Go onto Google and search for "Lilly Pulitzer desktop backgrounds", "Lilly Pulitzer wallpaper", etc.
Drag the picture you want onto your desktop.
Turn the picture so that it's vertical.
Go onto Microsoft Word and type out the class name. Change the font/color to your liking (it's also cute when it matches the background).
Screen shot and crop the class name picture.
Copy the picture so that it can go onto the Lilly pattern.
Paste it on the Lilly pattern, then adjust it and center it.
Here is the finished product!!
I hope this helps everyone!!

That is so cute and inventive. I might just try it! Thanks for the tutorial.
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute idea, I love it!

Ah thank you so much for sharing this!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea! I might try it for this upcoming school year.
ReplyDeleteI cannot wait until the school year so I can my school supplies ready. This is just such a precious idea!!
ReplyDeleteI love these! Such a creative and unique idea. Can't wait to use them this fall!! Thank you.
ReplyDeleteSuch an adorable way to decorate a binder! In my sorority we get to decorate the new members' handbooks and this would make the books look super cute. Thanks for the inspiration Hannah!
ReplyDeleteI love this! So simple yet the idea would've never come to me. I can't wait to get my books and binders for the fall semester so I can decorate them! (:
ReplyDeleteCan you tell me how you found your Frachie Strawberry desktop!? its ADORABLE
ReplyDeleteLoved these! Used them for my new classes and they worked out perfect. I just took the covers you had and pasted a colored box where you had your class title and added my class title.
ReplyDeleteWay cute!

Do you have to have a PC or Mac?
ReplyDeleteA Mac, but I bet if you have photoshop you can do it on on either!
DeleteThis doesn't work on a PC! :(
ReplyDeleteUse the Paint app. Open up a blank project and create the label (whatever you are 'naming' your notebook), and save it. Click on EDIT, then select all. Click EDIT again, and COPY.
DeleteX out of it. Open the Lilly wallpaper. You may have to rotate it by 90 degrees first!! Go to EDIT, PASTE. It should paste the "label" onto the Lilly background. From there, you can move the label to wherever on the print you want it! ENJOY!!
All you have to do for a PC is insert a text box. It'll let you change the text, color, font, and size of the box. So much simpler! Just do it all on Word.
DeleteLOVE this- I have gone crazy with it tonight! Thank you for the inspiration and how-to!
ReplyDeleteWhat font did you use??? I cant figure it out! ;(
ReplyDeleteIt's called Honey Script and I downloaded it online
DeleteWhat do you print the design on? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteJust regular paper! You slide it into the plastic binder cover.
DeleteOh! I think I was just trying to complicate things:) Thank you
Deletehey. i love this idea but when i was going tot he part where u copy the word "Ap English", it wouldn't let me copy, like that wasn't one of the options.... HELP!
ReplyDeletehow do u download lily prints from the website?
ReplyDeleteI just finished mine! they turned out great, thanks for the helpful tutorial!
ReplyDeleteTried it on my PC and it totally worked! Love it! Thanks for the amazing idea & tutorial!
ReplyDeleteThe only thing I couldn't do with my PC was copy the text onto the print but I just printed it separately, cut it out, and glue it down! They're precious and so easy! Thanks
ReplyDeleteI'm having trouble screen shooting the image to my background! Anyone want to enlighten me on this issue?? I have a Mac so I know it's possible!
