Repurpose paper scraps, fabric and yarn to create your own personal journal or sketchbook. All you need is some stationery, card stock or construction paper, fabric, yarn, a hole punch and scissors.
STEP 1
Cut and stack multiple rectangular shaped sheets of paper. ??Used here are 8.5? x 11? pieces of stationary and one piece of card stock (black) cut in half for the journal/book cover.
STEP 2
Stack sheets evenly, fold in half and punch holes along the center crease. Lace yarn through the holes and tie securely.


STEP 3
Wrap fabric around the outer layer (cardstock) and glue or tape down on one side of the book only!
STEP 4
Fold the book closed and proceed to finish adhering the fabric to the other side of the cover.


Now you have a multipurpose handmade book!!
