I found these cute mini composition books at Staples and thought with a little jazzing up they would make great party favors. I gave them to my daughter’s teachers.
I first added a ribbon to the inside back cover. I folded it under so it wouldn’t ravel all over the place.
Put the ribbon inside the book.
Add a label over the ugly one it came with… and viola! An easy little project anyone would like!
These are Cathe Holden’s free printable labels. You can download them here.
Happy Friday everyone!

This is adorable. I could do projects like this all day long. Maybe I can found a secret crafters club : ).
