Why buy notebooks when you can make your own?


This project will instruct you to create your own, custom notebook.

(sorry I couldn’t upload all the photos)

Supplies

For this project you will need:


.Paper

.Card/cardboard

.Hole punchers (or use a pen)

.Colored pen/pencils (optional)

.Sewing supplies (or just string)

:)

The Pages

First, 9/10 pieces of paper.


Fold each of them separately.

Then line up the folded papers against each other.


The Spine

With them lined up, punch holes at the sides. (I’m only doing two for efficiency. I lost my puncher. Don’t ask.)


Then, take your thread and needle (or just string) and thread it through the holes. (Remember to first tie a knot when you start and end, so it won’t loosen.)

Cover

Use cardboard or hard card paper for the cover. You can put any design you wish (and any shape).


Have fun with creating the cover.

Binding

Either you can do the same thing we did with the pages, or you could stick the cover to two of the pages. (The front and end).

Done!

Now we’re finished!


You can now enjoy your new notebook!


Enjoy!
