Fold 6 Pockets from 1 Sheet of Paper

By Noreen 10 Comments

Fold 6 Pockets from 1 Sheet of Paper

By Noreen Doll. Try this fun way to fold 6 pockets from 1 sheet of paper. Albums and journals are more fun with lots of pockets to stash things in, and by careful folding you can make several pockets with just 1 sheet of 12 by 12 scrap booking paper. Double sided paper makes really nice pockets, but I'm using paper with only one colored side to allow the … [Read more...] about Fold 6 Pockets from 1 Sheet of Paper

Back to Back Tag Pockets

By Noreen Doll. A back to back tag pocket has a pocket on each side and a bonus pocket between the tags. These are fun to add to a journal, scrapbook, or album. This is a very easy pocket to make, as you essentially make a giant tag, then make a few cuts and folds, and it's finished. Each of the tags is a pocket, and there is a third (bonus) pocket between … [Read more...] about Back to Back Tag Pockets

Haunted Journal

Haunted Journal

By Noreen Doll. I love my new haunted journal! I really enjoy Halloween images, so that is what I decided to use when I needed to make a journal. I put a few pocket pages in among the journaling pages because it's so handy to have a place to hold bits of paper on which notes have been written that are not ready to be used or disposed of. And besides, I love … [Read more...] about Haunted Journal

Folded Paper Pocket for a Book

By Noreen 21 Comments

Folded Paper Pocket for a Book

By Noreen Doll. It's handy to know how to make a folded pocket for a book, because pockets are really handy for containing loose papers, and books usually come without pockets. I like to put at least one (usually more than one) in most books I make. And they are easy to add to a 3 ring binder, too. Here's how to make a folded paper pocket for a … [Read more...] about Folded Paper Pocket for a Book

How to Repair a Paperback Book

By Noreen 3 Comments

How to Repair a Paperback Book

By Noreen Doll. I was asked if I could repair a paperback book with a glued binding that had several of the pages falling out. This is a large (8 1/2 x 11) drawing book that was often left open for referral, and as a consequence many of the pages had become loose. Because I wanted to cut off as little as possible to preserve the content, I narrowly shaved off the … [Read more...] about How to Repair a Paperback Book

How to Alter a Bound Book to a Spiral Book

By Noreen 2 Comments

How to Alter a Bound Book to a Spiral Book

By Noreen Doll. Because bound journals won't lay flat, I was asked to alter a bound book to a spiral book. Since I am a book lover, it was very difficult for me to cut the binding off this beautiful journal. However, as a bound journal it wasn't useful to the owner, who needed the book to open flat and stay open while in use. First I used a knife to carefully … [Read more...] about How to Alter a Bound Book to a Spiral Book

Spiral Organizer

By Noreen Doll. I was asked to create a spiral organizer, because the owner was unable to find one that would work well. Thus the idea for creating one that was perfectly suitable came about. It was created without actually having to purchase anything, just using materials already on hand. Materials. 2 Pieces of Cardboard 4 Sheets of Designer … [Read more...] about Spiral Organizer
