Back-to-School CP Project Inspiration: Writing Journals - Stephanie Bryan

Simple journals are more popular than ever, so why not consider making a set or two for the upcoming school year? CP Gal, Stephanie Bryan, came up with the idea to create a few for the new kindergartner in her family, perfect for learning the ABC's and more!

My daughter started kindergarten this year and one thing they are really focusing on at school is writing and drawing. They also encourage a lot of practice at home on their own so I decided to create a writing box for her to use whenever she has some free time.

This box came together so easily and I see us creating more and more mini journals as she fills these up.

The books are roughly 4" wide by 6" tall and are bound together with some kitchen twine. I used regular printer paper for the insides of the book because it is thinner, easy to write on and is inexpensive.

I kept the fronts of the books very clean and simple by adding on a few 'little' embellishments and stickers.

I also created a small box from a piece of scrap paper to hold her crayons and to keep them from rolling around inside the box.

My daughter loves her writing box and I love to see her using it!
