DIY Memo Book

Im so excited. I love notebooks but I never buy them because they are so expensive and I only use about half before i get tired of the design.
So after doing some digging on Pintrest, I found a DIY project and now I'm in the process of making a memo book. This one will be floating around in my purse for my blog ideas and all the other info that gathers up in my mind on a daily basis.

Ok here is the DIY

The first step is to gather all your materials.

You will need: 

Elmers glue. Any glue will work just fine but I think that name brand is the best.

Regular printer paper folded in half

8x11 cardstock

2 or 3 binder clips

heavy cardboard

Decorated scrapbook paper

 Cut your cardstock in half and place one half on both the front and the back. This will serve as your cover. Now use your binder clips and your cardboard to secure them all together. Make sure that the folded edges are flush together as this is your seam.

Now, put a thin line of glue along the flush edge. Use your fingers to spread it over the length of the seam. Allow to dry, then repeat 4-5 times until you have a nice think bind.

Fold your scrap piece of paper in half and glue the bind of your book. Clip with the binder clips until dry. Remove and you are done!!

I bet you didnt think it was that easy huh? Think of all the money you are going to save by making your own memo books.

You can make them any size. Just make sure you cut your paper accordingly. I like to leave at least one fold in the paper for the bind so it is a little thicker but you can cut them all if you like.
