    made this for daugther to take to camp. Every 4/12 page had black and white hearts ,other band W washi patterns and in the hidden pocket were love notes. she decorated her bunk with them and wasnt so disappointed not getting mail every day. Great idea and great memory to keep. All her friends wrote their addresses(email etc) in the back.

    I have done this only gluing 2 pages together. I haven't had any bleeding, but I don't do any kind of painting or super wet medium so.... Doing 2 pages also keeps an even number of pages on both sides of the seam....no need to have a random clump of 4. I also over do it with the glue stick.... that's just me though. Love the washi edging. great way to use up some washi tape too.

    I've had pages fall out of my composition book journals before. This is a great idea to keep the pages stronger. Thanks for the tutorial!

    I’m thinking I’d start glueing from the middle back. Then just deal with the odd pages leftover? Great tutorial btw!

    I was surprised how little glue you used to bind the pages. Does this cause bonded pages to pull apart when used with acrylics or watercolors?
