A Scrapper’s Way
My cousin Francine, who lives in France with her wonderful hubby, Lucas and the cutest baby boy ya ever did see, the ebullient Mr. Kieran, is a fantastic scrapper (that’s scrap book lingo I think). Anyway she had this brilliant idea!
In order to keep up with ALL the things on her mind and the endless things she, like the rest of us, has to remember like…
- daily to-do lists
- artwork to complete
- deadlines to remember
- thoughts and ideas that pile up in our brains like a cars on a highway at rush hour
- and the all too important shopping lists (us folks gotta eat)
…she came up with a clever way to both coalesce and compartmentalize this information, keeping it in one complete package while also making it convenient to carry.
She punched holes in 4 or 5 small exercise books, decorated and labeled the covers with the info they will contain (she is a scrap booker after all) and put it all together with a couple of binder rings.
This way whenever she remembers to write something down about whatever task that needs to be completed or another crazy, fantastic idea pops into her she just pulls out her trusty bound notebook,
…..jots the info down to remain there in perpetuity (or till it disintegrates over time, lol)
…..then pops it back in her handbag, or rather diaper bag right now and gets on with her day (which probably has more to with running after K-man).
How fantastic is that?
I love that idea!!! I may have to copy her on that one.
You’re too funny. And sweet
And yes, my day mostly consists of running after the K-man. And he isn’t even walking yet! lol

This is a fantastic idea ! Merci to both of you
Lots of inspiration. My handbag is pretty heavy already 
but I’ll choose small booklets and take something else out of it

I know Isa, isn’t it the coolest idea? It’s like the blank notebooks I make
only much simpler. BTW, I tried a couple of times to send you an email but they keep bouncing back undeliverable.
