    This is the best pad holder design out there! I did modify it a little in that I made a pocket inside the back cover so that the pad could be replaced and I didn’t put on an inside pad cover. The other thing I did is I took scraps of my paper and covered the tops of the pads and sent extra pads with them. Thanks May for another great tutorial!

    I don’t know if I ever commented on this but I meant to. I used this for our craft night. I get all the ladies and little girls in my family together and we craft. We did this a couple months ago and they are still talking about it! Thank you for such a fun idea!

  • @thelmapirnie4246

    This is such a fantastic idea. Especially the cardboard back. I've done these before using just the cardstock, this will be so much sturdier. Thank you.

    Lovely and you're a great teacher. I would(will) add packaging tape to the inside flap, before cutting for the pen holder so the pen holder won't tear or get worn easily. No one will see it, but it will strengthen that cardstock for that little pen holder. Also, an easy solution to that cardboard showing under the pen holder is washi tape. Just stick a piece under there before securing the cover.

    • @bonniechadwick3742

      What kind of packing tape? I only have clear packing tape. Did you only use it on the pen section? thanks

    This is so blasted adorable!!!! Plus easy enough to make. Probably whip out 6-12 of them in an afternoon or evening. Love the matching pen and adding the cardboard for sturdiness. Your cardboard reminded of Masonite. Thank you for yet another ideal last minute Christmas gift from the heart.
    This got me thinking about one of the ladies Biblestudy groups I attend. Now I'm wanting to make these for each lady. Notepad, journal notes, prayer requests and on and on....

    I recently found your channel and I love love it. I am addicted now. I was soooo amazed at your willingness to share the Word of God with your online family. I also love your projects and the way you present them. Your voice is so kind and enjoying to hear. Your projects are so much fun to create and make my own design. God bless you and yours greatly. Praying for you.

    @paulaaddison546 6 років тому +2

    I just love that you take a craft using paper to make a gift idea! I also appreciate that you give such great tips that it should be logical like scoring the edges to make a fold easier and when folding using your table to assist. That should be something we should think logically but we don't, you make it so simple!! That's why I love your videos, not to mention both you and Vinnie are just darling together ♥ Have a blessed Holiday and may you prosper in the New Year!

    Hello Maymay, Oh My Stars, how cute are these? Really really cute!
    I get so tickled watching you. If you hear any noises it’s me giggling or
    Asking a question, which you answer about 3seconds later .
    I would like to run into your craft room before you go off and give you
    A huge Southern hug from all of us. We all really do LOVE You and Vinnie!
    I am new to your channel, but loving your crafting ideas. I am watching several
    crafters and all with different crafting.

    I also went one step further and made a slip pocket in the back of the legal pad. My pad was 8 x 5, so I cut my card stock 5.5 x 5. I scored my card stock 1/4 on each side, used a really good tape on each side and placed it on the back.

Is it possible to construct this so that the legal pad can be replaced once it’s used up? I would hate to discard the journal when it’s full. This journal is very cute and whoever received it would be very impressed. Thank you.
