Notebook!





I created this simple notebook last night using a brown paper bag, embroidery thread, and a variety of ruled laboratory paper. I have always been attracted to the simple, clean aestheic of office supplies created especially for scientific laboratories. I had originally made the cover bright purple, but found that to clash with the precise nature of the paper within. I love the subdued nature of this notebook.

To make it, I simply cut the paper to size, folded it, and stacked the paper on top of each other. I then drilled a series of small holes down the folded spine, and sewed them together using embroidery thread... voila!

More to come soon....
