Swissair memorabilia fetches good money here and every now and then I come across a stand selling off old bits and pieces. When I win the lottery I'll buy myself one of those metal cabin trollys but in the meantime I bought a bunch of old Internal Mail envelopes (the guy gave me extra as he couldn't believe anyone would want them!) I also picked up a hideously expensive plastic Crew tag, I had to have it! you understand, I know you do...
Put the two together and what do you get?? ta da! a notebook. The hole in the tag was just wide enough to bind the pages together, the red tag came off one of the kid's bags
I ripped the useable parts of the envelopes to make the pages, quite cool as each one is different and speaks of a whole other life, my shopping lists will never be the same!

Hello my lovely Margaret,
It seems many of us have been finding it hard to find crafting time this year for one reason or another but I've got to say how much I LOVE LOVE LOVE your wonderful wire ladies in their amazing fru fru dresses!!! And Swinging in the garden is just perfect placement :-)
So glad to hear your MIL loved her invitations; another fabulous design and idea!
I'm glad you found some swiss air treasures to enliven your food shopping list, that's pretty amazing to be able to make non-craft shopping fun!

Very clever and FUN! Awesome re-use of the pre-existing holes. Love it!
I love seeing how you make these little treasures ~ the bracelets in the post below and the book in this post. You are so creative and clever!

What a great idea! I am just getting back into making some new journals..they are such a joy to make, write in, and then finally read them all later...love the direction this one might take!
