I have an obsession with journals and planners. I’m not great at keeping them but I’m an expert at buying them!
My obsession with paper, stationary and supplies costs me a small fortune. As a consequence I’m now signed up as a Creative Memories advisor, with my very own webstore!
In the next two YouTube tutorials I’m going to show you how I make my very own journal cover and notebook inserts.
Playing with leather has also been known to happen. I’m no expert, just a few keyrings and hat labels. You don’t have to be an expert to share what you do, but being a good communicator is a must.
The Notebook Cover
You will need:
- Soft leather, A4 in size
- Rotary cutter or craft knife
- Ruler
- Awl
- Hat elastic about 1 m
- Large eye needle
The Notebooks
You will need:
- Copy paper, no more than 15 sheets
- Paper cutter
- Awl to make the holes
- A guide to make the holes isn’t really a must but makes it easier
- Waxed thread but any strong thread will do.
- Scissors.
- Creative Memories paper for the cover.
