So, I think I blog too much. I've blogged like every day for the last month. Hopefully you guys aren't getting sick of me. I just thought I would share a cute idea. Michelle originally gave me the idea. She gave me a notebook that she had redone. It is super cute and I use it all the time. SO I used that idea for the ladies I visit teach. I bought a notebook and covered it in cute paper. Then I cut out words on the cricut to put on the front. I put the lady's first name and then "Notes". I think they turned out cute. Then I got thinking. I make menus every two weeks. They are kind of scattered so I wanted them in one place. So what do I do? Cover a notebook that is just for menus!! Here is the end result! I love how it turned out!
Here's how you do it.
1. Get a notebook that is spiral bound. It is $1 at Wal-mart. Also, get 2 sheets of coordinating 12x12 paper.
2. Take a piece of paper and fold the edges around the notebook so that it fits like a cover. Then take glue and glue the edges to the notebook, front and back of the front cover.
3. Do the same to the back cover. Let dry.
4. If you want words on it, cute them out with a cricut. The size I used for these was a 1 1/2". It worked out perfect. That's it. Super simple, and really cute!!
