A Little Bit of Handmade Homework


So here's a little assignment to tide you over until your packages arrive. Within the next week create a little something for someone far away. Make it personal to them, make something to do with a hobby of theirs or an interest. I, for example, made this little book for my bff Megan. It's a little notebook for her to write down the names of all of the books she reads. She's such a bookworm so I thought what a better gift than this. It didn't cost me anything, I had all of the supplies at home. It doesn't have to be anything big, you could even bake some cookies or something. I think it's always nice to get a little mailbox lovin' just for fun, no birthday or special occasion, just because. So within this next week make a little something for someone and snap a few pics before you send it off. Have fun. Below are a few more pictures of my little notebook for Megan. And I have to admit I did get this idea from Barnes and Noble but I thought I'd make my own version for free!

I used my library stamp and snagged a library check out card from my mom!
