In January, I filled an order of bird and butterfly notebooks for a friend from church. She is the leader of the young women’s youth group at our church and she wants to give them to the girls for their birthdays this year.

I really enjoyed making books for girls I know. I hope they love them!

In January, I filled an order of bird and butterfly notebooks for a friend from church. She is the leader of the young women’s youth group at our church and she wants to give them to the girls for their birthdays this year.

I really enjoyed making books for girls I know. I hope they love them!

Here are a few photos of my favorites. In true Book Bound Bindery fashion, each one was different.

I’m getting Valentine’s gift card holders ready to stock in my shop (should be there before the weekend).

Filled a custom order for 45 bird and butterfly notebooks. Loved working on this project. Pics soon. Promise.

Cub Scout Pinewood Derby is this weekend and I am on the decorations committee. I’ll post pics soon. Can’t wait for this!

I’m working on landscape sketches for our side and back yards. Now that the sprinkler system is complete, we can lay the rock path and get the bushes planted. Hooray!

My inspiration board for our master bath is almost complete. I’m itching to get that project finished.

I spent all morning cleaning the kitchen (the kind where I sent the boys outside and they were not invited back in until I was finished). The sparkling clean didn’t last long – we decorated sugar cookies for our Family Night treat. Icing and sprinkles everywhere. Oh well.

Discovered this little gem via whatever. Enjoy.

I have a new idea for you: Jenny ordered 7 dino notebooks to use as party favors for her son’s first birthday. How great is that!? The party colors are blue and green so I stuck to those colors for the notebooks. So these pics are a sneak peek for Jenny before the real ones arrive in her mailbox.

Thanks, Jenny! Enjoy the party!

I have a handful of new products that will be available that night at the open house and in my Etsy shop the days after.

One of the new products I’ve designed is this little blank notebook. Each notebook is hand stitched with 30 blank pages, has pockets in the covers, and has one of the four designs on the cover (dino, butterfly, bird, or truck). The covers are hand pulled prints with paper collage – so each one is unique!

Each notebook comes packaged in a parchment paper envelope.

Just shy of 5″ square, it’s the perfect size for your purse or backpack.
