One More Notebook

One more notebook today! Too many!



Re-deco Notebook

This is one of my first DIY notebooks. I feel now it is too simple and less protected.

 So I add one more piece to be the real cover. Looks good!

Notebook Couple

I always like to make a set of two. Sweet couple!

Notebook With Lace

First notebook with lace! So girly!

Notebooks Again

Notebooks again! I so like this checked translucent paper.


Friends and Old Times

I visited my friend who lives in a small city close to Russian border. The city was originally built in the 17th century and was later made into a fortress in the 18th century. The fortress played an important role in the wars between Russia and Sweden. The design of the city is quite unique.
The city has an Orthodox church as heritage from the Russian times.


The old wooden houses are quite typical Finnish style. My friend lives in a similar house next to the Orthodox church.
 Some of the houses are bit more unique.
The city has also one of the oldest buildings in Finland: a church built in the 15th century.
I wish Bubu would have been with me. She would have liked this city very much.

Re-deco DIY Notebook

I always feel these two notebooks are a bit too simple.

Today I added one small piece of paper on the top, they look more beautiful immediately!

Shopping For Food

I did the second shopping for food in Coop Mart. I bought 0.5kg pork, one piece ginger, two bitter melons, two bell peppers, some yardlong beans, two oranges, two avocados, a box of makopa. Totally I paid 4.5 euros!

Sleepy Plant Is Bigger

We call this sleepy plant because it closes the leaves from 7pm to 7am every day. Sleep quite a lot! It is much bigger than the first day it arrived!

Notebook Again

I bought some wrapping paper in a bookstore last evening. It made a nice notebook cover!
