I've been looking for a watercolour notebook for ages, but I just couldn't find exactly what I wanted. Then, in a flash of inspiration, I thought to make my own. So I did.
Each book is simply a piece if watercolour paper, folded and stitched using a simple pamphlet stitch. The cover was a stroke of genius: file folders that I got for practically nothing. The design doesn't go the right way for a book, but that's a small price to pay for a cheap but perfectly sized watercolour sketchbook. Now if I can just remember to make my own in future, everything could have an equally happy ending!
I love your idea. Getting crafty with what you have to make what you want or need. Thanks for the inspiration.
