Nouveau notebooks DIY...sshhh

Combine your love of notebooks (who doesn't have a slight obsession for all sorts of paper darlings?) and all things "library memorabilia" and you have these charming gift ideas (or something to keep for yourself!).

Image and super cool idea by Packagery Via PapernStitch.

For the whole tutorial visit one of these fabulous ladies. We'd love to feature more creative, DIY notebooks, please send us some pics of your ideas or someone else's that you've come across.

Hope you're off to as great a start to the week as we are!

OK, let's go!

So, it was Saturday night & I was trawling my growing list of unread blogs (as you do). I came across a post on Daydream Lily introducing Bam Bam Creative's beautiful handmade homewares and it's owner Jess. So of course I checked it out for myself, and it's gorgeous, very well worth a good look around! While there I came upon Jess' cute as a button pin cushion tutorial.

So, there being no time like the present, after a quick scrounge in the cupboard I found the necessary ingredients and knocked up my own very gorgeous cushion for pins!

So, pleased with myself for being so crafty and productive on a Saturday night! And so pleased to be now following Jess at Bam Bam! Thanks Jess :)

Now, on a celebratory note: today is Tomas' birthday!! Tomas, of Tomas & Jones fame! Could there be a more auspicious time to start this blog going? So here's to Tomas & Jones...& especially here's to Tomas! Looking forward to taking this ride with you...& wishing you the best year of your life!!

Night all!

Jones :)
