When I have too much to do, simple projects like this one satisfy my hands-on craving. I don't know about you but if I go to many days in a row without making or designing something I don't quite feel like myself.

Materials:
- 2 sheets of letter-sized office paper (height is determined by the glass hurricane that you have)
- ruler
- craft knife or scissors
- glue stick
- cylindrical glass hurricane (mine is 4" wide)
How to:
1. Cut 10 strips that are 2" x 11".

2. Attach strips to one another by adding glue along 1/4" the long side of each strip.

3. Attach all 10 strips to one another (forming a cylinder) and wait for the glue to dry.

TIP - Make it a recyclable project by using one of those countless of meaningless junk mail letters or a misprint of your own. The typography will give the cover a distinctive look.
