once upon a time I worked in technology, and their idea of teambuilding was going to the opening of a star wars film together (note: I still have yet to ever see one, so I guess THAT didn’t work) or playing videogames in the boardroom.
enter the performing arts: the team that works together, makes art together! Erm, well, separately, but in the same room, at least. A departure? Perhaps. Idea? Good. My execution? Lame. More practice required.
this one is obviously fake, because the real one only hides under the bathtub.
his brother on the other hand, will do anything for even the slightest bit of attention.
I am a collector of notebooks. You name the size, or the brand, and I probably have a full or an empty one kicking around my house somewhere. When we move, there’s at least one giant box always labeled “notebooks”, so it’s likely no surprise to anyone that my fabric stash would eventually come to this – notebook covers!
Using this fab tutorial from Kirin Notebook, I pulled some favourites from my stash (I love this bird print by Erin McMorris), and made me to-do @ work book just a little bit more fun!
The tutorial is easy, and requires just a sewing machine, a half-yard of fabric (or two fat quarters of one print each, depending on the size of the notebook you are covering), and a little bit of patience for turning things inside out.
Enjoy!
