Long time ----- no action!!!


Wow--it has been 5 months since I started my blog and I have only posted twice (in the same day). I don't really know what I am doing, so that is why it has been so long. I need to just go for it and not worry about how it looks.

This is what I have been making recently--I am using discarded library books and changing them into journals/notebooks. I take the book apart and reuse the covers and a few pages. I add blank paper and cardstock to make a journal. I also use other pages to make mini notepads or note cards. It is a form of recycling that is known as upcycling. I have boxes of old library books that I have had for 10+ years, because I couldn't stand the thought of throwing books away when I weeded school libraries. These books are classics and I like to think I am giving them a new life.


So I am spending my summer making papercrafts of many kinds. I will try to be more consistent about posting on my blog. My goal is to have at least one post per week. Wish me luck.
