Do you like Moleskine notebooks? What are they? I bet you’ve seen them!
Moleskine notebooks are personal notebooks that you write in by hand, yes by hand.
They are surprisingly popular in the digital age.
You can make one for yourself, some as gifts, or as a craft to teach kids.
Make Your Own Moleskine Notebooks!
With unlined paper it can be a sketch book. Kids might like to sketch spaceships, fashion, Iron Man stuff, Transformers, animals, imaginary planets/places.
Lined paper makes it a vacation journal, nature log, diary, planning book, or whatever.
The cool thing is that you can personalize these to make them really special.
One Instructable uses a sheet of craft foam (very cheap), but you can use a piece of cardboard (free) covered however you like (or not). You can glue on fabric or paper, even using decoupage.
You can also make a cover for your iPad, Ereader, smart phone, etc. this way to get a personalized cover or even to make it look like a regular book.
