I really enjoy making journals and notebooks. It's so relaxing.

Here are a few of my creations...

One of my favourite ideas is to make sets of 3 journals in different sizes.

I keep them in A5 Plastic Document Pockets

Thank you Jane.

Today I started making little boxes out of strong coloured paper with lids in contrasting colours.

I'm not sure what to put inside them yet but they would be great for holding

plectrums, paperclips, sweets or home-made cards with uplifting quotes on.

These are the first 2 I made. I will post my designs as they improve over time. smile.png

I agree, the journals and the boxes themselves would make fab presents.
