... not too much today - as some of you may know from my blog - I've been tidying!!
 |
| Some of the projects I've already posted, and a few that are in progress!! |
On my desk last week there was a picture of my challenge notebook - which seems to be a popular idea - I couldn't do without it. Anyway, I decided that I would make a new book for 2011. I did look for a totally plain notebook to decorate, but I ended up buying a rather beautiful A5 spiral bound notebook from WHSmiths (for those not in the UK - this is a stationery shop). I loved the colour (purple) and the outline hibicus flowers. So all I did was add some ribbons - still very pretty!!
 |
| My new notebook - just love the cover, so I couldn't alter it - just added some ribbons for fun! |
And that's all for now - I really must do something in the house - I keep putting it off to make cards instead. I'll be back later this evening with some more stuff to show you. I will try to get around as many desks as possible - I do love to peek!!
That's a really lovely journal, beats my scraps of paper any day! Cards definitely take precedent over house work you know!

You are well oraganised! I am busy working on a craft space ( our youngest son moved out)and for now I'll have the kitchen table. You should see the mess sometimes :)
ReplyDeleteVery pretty! How do you set a challenge journal up? Sounds like a great idea......
ReplyDeleteSorry I hadn't been by lately to see all your wonderful creations.....but I became a follower so maybe that will help me keep up!

I like your spirl bound book and I adore hibiscus flowers. If you have a Zutter machine you could easily make your own spirl bound books.

I love your corner desk, repurposed from computer to craft I'm guessing.
ReplyDeleteI love that you left the notebook the way it was because you liked it and instead addedd some ribbon - beautiful idea.
ReplyDeleteI love stationery shops! Could spend hours there just looking at everything. A challenge note book is such a good idea, I might just 'steal' that one.
ReplyDeleteLove that notebook - & your frontage to it is just right too.
