Create-A-Class Book Cover Kit

Abstract

The invention comprises a decorative book cover kit entitled Create-A-Classic Book Cover Kit, which is comprised of an outer cardboard box designed to look like a large book; leather-looking paper covers; alphabet and decorative transfer labels for labeling the title of the book and the author's name; and instructions for the use of the book covers and labels. As opposed to current book covers, which are either designed simply to protect books from wear and tear without providing a decorative design, or are designed with bright colors and flashy motifs, this invention is aimed at book owners who want to transform their collection from a motley arrangement of books into a beautiful, formal library, with book covers that are consistently patterned and classically decorated.

What I claim as my invention is:  
     
         1 . A decorative book cover kit entitled Create-A-Classic Book Cover Kit, comprised of an outer cardboard box or packaging designed to look like a large book.  
     
     
         2 . The kit referenced in  claim 1 , is also comprised of paper book covers that are approximately 12″×24″ in size, which: 
 a. look like leather on one side (the topside), with linear and decorative designs in a different color from the color of the paper printed on the topside, and a blank space on the center portion of the topside, which will be the spine portion once applied to a book, where the title of the book and the author's name can be affixed;  
 b. are coated with adhesive on the other side (the underside);  
 c. have applied over the adhesive, a thin waxy paper, on which a grid pattern is printed;  
 d. and are contained in the outer cardboard box.  
 
     
     
         3 . The kit referenced in  claim 1  and  2 , is also comprised of alphabet and decorative transfer labels, which can be affixed by rubbing onto the paper book covers for labeling with the title of the book and the author's name, and are also contained in the outer cardboard box.  
     
     
         4 . The kit referenced in  claim 1 ,  2 , and  3  is also comprised of instructions, which are also contained in the outer cardboard box, for the use of the book covers and the labels.
