I was traveling around in the blog world and came across some inspiration for a journal. I am working on making a new planner/calendar for myself (the last one i made only goes till may) and i was looking for inspiration.
I ended up with a fun idea. A one year planner/calendar that goes from birthday to birthday. (mine just passed on may 4th). For a present i think its a great idea because its made from their birth date to their birth date the next year. Making it a one of a kind present.
So in my journal making research i found this lovely blog that taught me all i needed to know!
Here are the results.
I "borrowed" some paper from mom, used some embroidery i had finished quite a few months ago and got to work.
It only required one walmart trip (picture explanation below) and i got it done on the first try!
Here it is: I'll call it, the bird journal.
Here is the binding of the spine.
The screw hole punch i got to get through the front and back cover.
in all its glory! ready to be written in.
A photo of the embroidered cover. A good use for a random embroidery project.
