Writing letters and drawing pictures have become one of our little girl's favorite things to do. I have wanted to make notebooks like Ginny's for while now, but since I don't have a sewing machine (or sewing skills) or a booklet making stapler, I put the idea on the back burner. Enter The Write Start, a book I ordered after reading through Jennifer Hallissy's blog of the same name (you will love her ideas!). The first project I tackled for my scribbler was making these wee books with cardstock, printer paper, embroidery floss, a nail, hammer, and piece of scrap wood (for banging the nail into!). They aren't perfect (in my defense, I was listening to the Orthodoxy in the Home conference!), but they make my little ones happy and are encouraged lots of time at the children's table this weekend!
