Embellishing; with Buttons, Ribbon, Tags, and more!

11/24/10

While wondering the isles of yet another dollar store, I happend upon these great little notebooks.  I fell in love with them immediately and snatched them up.  I actually had to limit myself to just the three....I hate it when that happens.  I decided that I wanted to give them a little bit of a makeover to give away as gifts.  One will be for my sister and the other two are going to my girls.  They won't be getting them until they can write, which will be in another three years or so, but  I've always thought that it's better to get your Christmas shopping done early!

Thanks to some wonderful activities that I've been able to participate in, and to the creative genius of some great friends, here are some other embellishing options.  The possibilities are endless!

Journals
Bought at Michaels for a dollar.  We added the ribbon and tags/labels. 
 These made great gifts for friends and family.
Containers
Added the ribbon and labels.
