DIY Magazine Binder

If you are anything like me, the magazines have a tendency to pile up around the home, and they become more of a burden than a feature. So this past week, I decided to compile all my favourite pages from my magazines and put them into a binder.
Check it out.
 
Wow, look at that.

All of those magazines, and those sheets are the only part I want to keep.

Grab a binder, some sheet protectors, and there you go.

Speaking of our girl, Taylor, who has listened to her new CD Red multiple times?????

Cause I know I have.

Halloween Craft Night

On Tuesday night, I had the opportunity to hang out with a dear friend, and not only celebrate our completion of a variety of milestones within our school courses but also to do some Halloween-themed crafts.

She was preparing for her Halloween costume.
I was preparing for my Halloween party decorations.

Such a fun night full of crafty-ness and girl time.

DIY Music Book

So I had a problem that was getting a little out of hand . . . a disorganized music book.

First, I organized each music piece into its own separate pile. I fixed tears, punched holes, and titled everything.

Then, I made alphabetical dividers.

Put everything into a 1.5" binder.

Created a fun printable.

And played beautiful melodies in an organized manner :)
