Make a saddle-stitched booklet

Filed Under: Crafts, scrapbooking

notebooksThese mini saddle-stitched books are a great way to use paper scraps and make sure you always have a neat little book on hand. Personally, I'd gladly trade-in scrounging through my purse and scribbling a number on an old receipt for pulling out one of these stylish little books, and keeping my notes all organized.

Jessica Jomes made her books 3X4, but you could choose whatever size fits your needs. This is a great use for old scrap-booking paper, magazine covers, or even kid's art. Have fun with which decorative paper you choose. Here's what else you'll need:
  1. Blank scratch paper
  2. Clear contact paper
  3. Decorative paper
  4. Ruler
  5. Something that cuts paper - If you have a paper cutter, this will give you the cleanest look
  6. Stapler
  7. Pin
You'll find a full tutorial on the site. While you're there have a peek around, I think this site is a real gem, and I'm sure we'll find more inspiring projects coming out of Jess and her orange office.
