When I was teaching, the stuff was the cause of a lot of trouble. It was
quite expensive so wasting it was a major crime. Applying it neatly to
exercise book covers was not all that easy.


Using other than brown paper was a capital offence at my school. But only
on textbooks. Exercise books were yours and didn't have to be covered.


Going even more off-topic, one teacher showed us how to cover a text
book in brown paper without using any sticky tape, glue or staples.
Can anyone recall how this is done?

That's not the method I've used, and most of the top and bottom of the book
boards is uncovered. The method I've used involves cutting tongues to be
inserted into the book spine top and bottom, wrapping the paper over the top
and bottom of the front and back boards, and tucking it into the side edges.

Thanks :-) But I am not sure this is the same method as we used. The
youtube one looks like it will fall apart in no time.
