Hello Diyhubbers, it’s another day to share my craft with you all and I’m excited!!!

Today I made a mini notebook. After two attempts, I got it right, and I can't believe I was on the brink of giving up.

If there is one thing I have learnt over the course of my DIY journey, it would be “creativity builds boldness.” Creative people are very bold, they go the extra mile to bring their imagination to life without holding back or shying away. They make mindblowing decisions and follow their heart to the very end. They know what they want and they don’t stop until they get it.

The more I delve into this amazing world of creativity, the harder I want to push myself. It is not always rosy but the result is always satisfying.

Enough of the long talk, I’ll walk you all through the creation process.

To make this mini notebook I used the following materials and followed the steps below.

Materials

Paper
Foam sheet
Gum
Scissors
Glue
Ruler

Procedure

Step 1:
I folded the paper twice in a vertical form. I did this neatly and smoothed the edges.

Step 5:
I cut an extra paper and attached it to the notebook, this is to help keep the pages intact.

This is a simple craft and it can be done with our little ones. The result will blow their minds and they’d enjoy doing it over and over again.
