Journal Surgery...

Do you ever start a journal, and for one reason or another, set it aside before it's finished?  I do.  Sometimes it's cuz I get excited about starting another one, or maybe I realize the format is hard to use or maybe it's too specialized a topic to fill a whole journal; but for whatever reason, it happens; and this past week it was bugging me.  I had this pile of nine unfinished journals...

I decided to do some journal surgery.  I took the completed pages out of each journal, and organize them in a loose chronological fashion.  I included the cover of the Letter Love one, since I created that one and wanted to preserve it.  Here's the pile...

Then, I cleaned up the edges, and three-hole punched each page, and created two sets of covers out of old record albums.


Now, I have two full journals, filled with random good stuff!  Here's how they look all finished...

I'm so happy I did this! 

Here's a peek at how each one looks on the inside...

Super easy, and now those half-filled journals are not hanging over my head like unfinished projects, and the original journals can go back on the shelf and await the next time they are needed.  Yeayyy!

I wish you a wonderful weekend my friends!  Thanks so much for visiting!
