DIY Penguin Book DVD Covers // Free Downloads

A few years ago, the Mister and I looked at our DVDs sitting on the shelves in our living room and decided to give them a fun makeover. We loved how pretty our collection of vintage and antique books looked sitting on the opposite shelves grouped in rainbow colors, but the DVDs just looked … disorganized and ugly. So the Mister used his Photoshop skills and made me some Penguin Book DVD Covers.DIY Penguin Book DVD Covers with Free Download // Salty Canary We loved how vintage Penguin books came in an assortedment of colors for different book genres and how we could mimic the different genre colors for our movies such as pink for chick flicks or red for horror.

And, they are a bit of an investment with the printing costs and we also purchased some blank DVD covers for some DVDs whose boxes just didn’t fit the size/mold, but when the project was finished, it was worth it!

I mean, hardly anyone will ever see them, but it’s worth it just for me when I look at the shelves!

This is so cute!! Such an incredibly creative idea!! I have a pretty big DVD collection, so I doubt I would do all of them, but some of my frequent watchers that end up sitting on top of the Blu-ray player, this may be just the thing to do with them!
