I made these journals from old jeans, and town house cracker boxes. I used the button for the bookmark, and put the pocket on the frount to hold pens, pencils, and such.



Here is the tutorial I used to make them, obivously, I changed it a lot, but this is how you sew the binding. If you can't read it email me and I'll send it to you.

Those look really cool! (You know people are probally going to ask you how you did it)  I wish I had the patience to pull off such a task.

Keeping them for yourself? Or going to give them as gifts?

Sorry I've been gone so long. Am trying to get back on the boards. Body's thrown me for a few loops these past months and am still learning to adjust. Thanks for your patience.

Those are cute.  The pocket is great for storing a pen.

The one on the right I glued. The one on the right I sewed. Glueing was easier, but sewing looked nicer. I used fabric glue to put on the pocket.
