Altered Journal

I just love altered projects! I like finding new uses for old things and I get great excitement from making beautiful things out of ordinary, not so pretty things. 


This year one of the things I've committed to is journaling. I've found that writing is helping me better understand my feelings. Anyway, the journals I find in the stores are not very pretty or they are way too expensive.  So check this out. I found this journal in the Michael's dollar bin and I am kicking myself for not buying more.  I absolutely LOVE how this turned out. I made this one for a male friend, but the possibilities are endless!

    Looks great. I'll have to keep a lookout for those journals. I don't recall seeing them in Michaelels.
