It started as a book...

Over Christmas break, we had our Pritchett family christmas (obviously) and Mary-John, Whitney, and I have a tradition of getting each other gifts (no, really?).
So this year I absolutely could not think of what to get them.. then it hit me one day.
I decided to make them journals!
So here are some pictures of the making of the journals.

it started off as a plain book...

....throw in a sewing machine.....

...a girl at the sewing machine....

...a tree sewn into the fabric...

...a make-shift work station...

...then came the layout of ideas...



...and a few more ideas...


...put it together...

...and you get the almost finish stages!


Here's the exchanging of gifts.. (i didn't get a picture of the finished product, but whitney has her's in her hand, and mary-john's is beside her) Mary-John also ended up making us journals!

Have a beautiful day :)
