This week's art project: Buy or use a thick notebook you currently own. Glue a decorative cover onto it with construction or scrapbook paper to create a unique journal for your spouse. For example, Mel is a preacher, so on top of some green wallpaper-style scrapbook paper, I wrote the words, “Mel’s Sermon Notes, Dreams, & Plans.” You could add artwork, stickers, or glitter if you like, but not too girly if this is a gift for your manly hubby! Your possibilities are endless from creating a book for poetry, to giving him/her a place to keep notes on ideas for a future business. The point is to show you believe in and support all your soul mate’s dreams!
This is actually the second notebook I made for Mel. I mentioned the green notebook above, but I also made him this one for writing down his plans for the future.
This is obviously one of those super simple ideas, but as always, you can be as creative as you like and do much more with your notebook cover than I did. You could even make one out of cloth if you like to sew or cross-stitch. If you could afford it, you could even buy a journal and have it professionally personalized.
