• Smash Book

  I mentioned in a pulse that I was going to make a Smash Book.

  Don't know what that is? Neither did I, until tonight.  See, we took a little shopping trip. We were only after some friggin doughnuts, but we ended up in Micheals AND Petco (Nothing like watching the darn ferrets to make me all crazy with envy, wanting one. Or the guinea pigs!). Anywho, we were in Micheals and there was this "Smash Book" there. I picked it up and looked at it and was curious. The pages were all different and weird. I thought it was just a "journal", but not quite.

  Go here if you want to read more about it

  I like THAT idea, because I'M SUPER CHEAP, and I refuse to spend $12.99 on a silly journal.  Although I'm sure you can spend more money in supplies making your own, I figure just do what you want. I'm going to. I'm probably just going to get a spiral note book. They have to have ones where you can decorate the covers? Who knows, I'll look.

  But if I really want to make it more fun, I'll follow that chicks advice and do one like that.

  It's, basically, like a scrapbook. Or you can fill it with things that make you smile. Make it your own. I intend to fill it with things that make me smile. Cut out quotes that make me happy, make me feel inspired, etc. Bible verses, even. cut out pictures from magazines. Anything that catches my interest and stick it in my smash book.

  I LOVE this idea. So glad I came across it!

  So, as I do this, I'll take pictures just to show you guys. Now the hunt begins to get all my materials. I do have some scrapbooking paper. Yay! This is going to be fun!
