How to Add a Decorative Custom Border in Your Microsoft Word Document

In this video I show you how to add a decorative custom border in a Microsoft Word document. There are two methods I explore. The first method uses a background image of a custom decorative border. The second method uses Microsoft Word's built-in custom art borders.

On the second version I can get this far but when I print the document the border goes off the page at the bottom and left and right margins are not the same. What am I doing wrong?

[@user-jq9th4hx2u]

Great...thanks...one more question, can those borders be put specifically around a table in Word, not necessarily the entire page?

What version of Word are you using my version doesn't have the design tab

[@Onioncup]

Does not work in 2023. "custom watermark" is grayed out. Please update.

So I tried doing this, and I kept getting this "Bad Request - Request Too Long HTTP Error 400. The size of the request headers is too long." and it didn't work for me. I wanted this so badly too, because it would have made my books so pretty.
