Simple Handmade Books






I've seen little books like this all around, but now that I have a sewing machine I finally got to make some. I made the covers from thick art magazine covers (from my collage scraps drawer) and then used a paper cutter to cut the pages. fold in half, and sew a line down the middle. simple and very satisfying!


It's going to really be fun when the kids get old enough to write their own stories. But even now it's a great activity. Jack and Tess love drawing in them.
