A fabric note pad and and a little zipper pouch. Every organized list maker needs their own pad for on the go right? One of these days I’m going to make myself one too. Maybe if I had one as cute as this one, I wouldn’t leave home without my lists. Oh how I love to make lists and somehow I ALWAYS leave home without them. I guess that is what shopping with 3 kids does to ya.
Of course I had to add a little ruffle to it. Not sure if it was to make the note pad cuter or so that I could use the green pencils from my stash, either way it worked.
I made it similar to making a crayon roll, except one side has the slots for the pens or pencils and the other side has a large open slot for the note pad. I was lucky to have already had the pens and note pad in my stash of goodies, thanks to a shopping trip to Michael’s forever ago. I love the contrast between the colors.
I also made her a matching zipper pouch. It is the perfect size to fit into a purse, bag, or diaper bag and can store any little goodies that need to be organized.
OK,
here is what I got in exchange.
A clip board calendar. She used a clip board and then embellished it with scrapbook paper, some ribbons and a little calendar on the bottom. I can either keep the same picture displayed or change them out every month. How clever is she? And might I add, she used my favorite color…orange!
She also sent me this Christmas planner. I have always wanted to make one of own, and thankfully now I don’t need to. And yes, I have already put it to good use. The lists are made and I have even checked a few of them off!
It has little sections for lists, cards, menu and to do’s. There are envelopes on the front and back of the book to store coupons and recipes in. LOVE IT!
Too cute!!!
Have I mentioned how much I love that note pad? I think my mom was about to snatch it from me while she visited this week… Love it! 🙂
Would love the tutorial on the note pad as I just love it.

What I have observed in terms of computer system memory is always that there are specifications such as SDRAM, DDR or anything else, that must fit the specific features of the mother board. If the personal computer’s motherboard is very current while there are no main system issues, improving the ram literally normally requires under an hour. It’s among the list of easiest personal computer upgrade types of procedures one can think about. Thanks for sharing your ideas.
I have figured out some important matters through your site post. One other subject I would like to say is that there are plenty of games that you can buy which are designed in particular for toddler age little ones. They contain pattern acknowledgement, colors, pets, and styles. These commonly focus on familiarization as opposed to memorization. This makes little children occupied without experiencing like they are learning. Thanks
