I set this up so I would have a place to show some of my stamping projects, and now quilting, and not have to bore strangers with the everyday family happenings.

Altered Notebooks
I found these notebooks in Michaels $1 bins and thought I'd try to alter them. It's really easy once you mess the first one up and figure out a few tricks to cover the entire thing. The notebook lying down is the "before". I tried a matching bookmark too.

How cute! Where did you get the giant paper clips? I look for them all the time but never find them. The books are adorable.
I love these! I always buy those too, with the intention of altering them, and never quite get to it... now that I've seen how great they turn out, I may have to dig mine out!
I'm a part time stay at home mom to three boys, 12, 17 and 20. I've been married to my amazing husband Tim for 21 yrs. We're in South Bend IN, Go Irish, and everything we do seems to revolve around sports. Including my job! However, I recently learned to quilt, and just fell in love with it. I love just about every crafty thing I can get my hands on, but this is my favorite (for the moment)Thanks for visiting!
