I found this great tutorial (http://photojojo.com/content/diy/make-your-own-photo-notebook-journal/) on how to make notebooks/journals which was perfect for my large stack of computer paper I got from recycled garbage (http://www.reversegarbage.org.au).

The cover is made out of a box. So.. carbon neutral. I have a pile of other paper that I bought from a paper merchant, perfect journal filler.

Would love to see your handmade books and journals posted here.

Hi there.
Your notebook looks great.
I just watch the tutorial and they used photos. The material that you have for your cover looks a lot thicker than a photo. Can I ask what material you used, and was it harder to make the spine with the glue with the heavier card?
