I found some nice, cheap, journals where the binding was a little too wide for the pages it contained. For my purposes, this was perfect.
I've been a fan and connoisseur of Origami and Kirigami for a long time. (Also Scherenschnitte.) I wanted to combine these with my love for journals and books with unique layouts.
After reading about altered books, I decided it was time to make some altered journals. I hope someday to have an actual plot line linking all the doo-dads together. For now I'll leave that up to the people I'm giving them to. But I have an outline written and a few character sketches for such a plot. And even though it will be a kid's adventure storybook, I'm hoping it will also capture the attention of the adults in my life.
I made this journal out of old wallpaper samples and printer paper for my younger brother.
Enjoy!
