My husband had to go away on business for week and we wanted to show him what we did while he was gone so we decided to make a picture journal.
We started by gathering supplies: Construction paper, our craft projects, a hole puncher, yarn, glue stick, scissors and markers. We then printed some image/photos on 3-hole paper (we had bought it by mistake) although you can print on plain 85. x 11 and use a hole puncher. We then placed the papers in chronological order and flipped them over.
We then cut three pieces of yarn, approximately 8 inches long. One by one, we looped them through each hole and tied them into a little bow. Dad was touched by our little story book.
Do you remember making books like these when you were little?

This is a fun book to tell a good story of what was missed over the weekend. It was great to meet you! I hope we can reconnect again soon.
I love this!
My kindergartner this year brought home a 'mom' book similar to this for mother's day... I should totally take photos of it.. what a great idea! :)
