My kids are back in school in a couple of weeks. Along with buying new clothes comes school supplies. Although we haven't received their official school supply list, while in Target the other day I decided to pick up a few things I knew they would need.
My daughter prefers composition books for taking notes. I purchased a few for her to use, but decided to personalize them with scrapbook paper. I purchased a few other supplies(some I had on hand). Then I sealed each book with Mod Podge.
I've been hearing so much about washi tape lately and decided to give it a try. I used to the tape to decorate a few of the books with.
Washi tape is so easy to use. The possibilities are endless. You are only limited by your imagination!
My daughter loves her new books and can't wait to use them!
So cute and creative! I love the colors. The little banner made with the washi tape is so adorable.Good to know it is easy to use. xx
ReplyDeleteWow, these look great!! I love all the colors. So creative. :) Visiting from AA Linky Party.
ReplyDeleteOMG!!! This is such an awesome idea, I'm going to do this with my sister
ReplyDeleteKids really love this. I use to do this during the first week of school all the time. It works great with elementary and middle school kids. Thanks for the memories.
ReplyDeleteBrandi, these are beautiful! You did a great job.
ReplyDeleteI loved buying school supplies every year. Brand new notebooks and pencils - so hopeful, so full of possibilities. :)
Amazing! What a great idea. I think these would be perfect for journals too. Great gift idea!! Can't believe the kiddos here start Monday. So glad I have an extra week before we head off to college. Oh, and my daughter will NOT miss AP U.S. History. And, she is done with French...all 7 years of it!
ReplyDeleteThat is creative I am loving this. I am going to be emailing you soon about something look out for it.

ReplyDeleteLove these composition notebook makeovers! I always remember loving to write on new stationary or that first sheet of my new school notebook. With notebooks as cute as that, taking notes will be kinda fun. :-)

Hi Janine! Thanks so much for stopping by. I really appreciate your visit. The notebooks held up really well. My daughter used them the entire school year. She is now junior with different set of classes and asked me to make her a new set. I hope your daughter has a great school year.
