I always keep at least two or three notebooks in my purse. I jot lists on them, keep ideas safe and tear pages out to leave notes for my friends. Today I want to share a quick (and budget friendly) way to make your own pretty journals. You can whip up a batch in an afternoon and use them for months. Enjoy!
Supplies Needed: Pretty magazine pages, paper (graph, lined or plain), embroidery thread and a needle, scissors and washi tape. 1. Trim pages to the size of your choosing (remember they will be folded in half) Add as many or as few pages as you wish. 2. Cut a magazine page to size (slightly larger than pages) to create a cover. 3. Fold and stitch through the center of pages to bind them together and attach the spine. 4. Add a piece of pretty washi tape to decorate your cute tiny journal!
These notebooks make great gifts and are perfect for carrying in your purse! xoxo, elsie ps. thank you, Kinsey, for helping me create this DIY!
