Charming Cottage Chic DIY Journals

These little journals are just too darn sweet for words, and they would make such a thoughtful gift for lots of different occasions. Think favors for a party, bachelorette gifts, gifts for a women's group (like the prayer group I attend), wedding shower prizes, the list is endless. And better yet, you can personalize them and decorate them however you want to. I am so in love with these that I don't think I can part with them, so I might need to make several batches. These journals make a great gift if you want to give something homemade, from the heart, and don't have a lot of money to spend. And today, I am going to show you how you can make some adorable journals of your own!
I used cheap mini notebooks from Target, some craft paper, burlap look duct tape, and chalkboard labels to make these, and you can see a complete list of supplies you will need to make your own by clicking the link to my blog post.
As you can see, I also finished the journals on the inside, for a nice little touch.
Here is an image to help explain how I cut the paper to fit, but you can find a detailed how to on the blog.
The first one I made took me awhile, but as I got used to my method, I knocked each journal out a little more quickly! And I just love them!
