FAT FREE, Dairy free, NO NUTS journals

You may be saying (or thinking quietly to yourself) that all journals are fat free, and who has ever put a nut in a journal? (maybe nuts are making journals, but in them? not a chance! ) :) While this may be true, these journals are especially worth noticing if you care about allergies. They are made from boxes that once held products that were made for people with allergies. My son has nut, egg, milk, and sesame seed allergies, so they are also made with care that no allergens were on my hands as i was making them.

**** Please note that the journals them selves are NOT to be eaten! :) (it is a joke!)





Low Fat, Parve (Recycled) journal

i love the colours on this journal. It is so bright and fun. The size turned out great too, at just under 3 inches wide, by just over 5 inches high it is a great size to have in your pocket, or in a purse.













MARS snack box JOURNAL

This is not the book that i have for sale on Etsy, but it was made from the same box. This book is so much fun. While not dairy free, i thought it deserved a spot here, because it has the lovely NO NUT symbol on it. and - yum - because it is Mars bars. These were not bought for my son - they were bought for me!













Yummy POPCORN recycled box JOURNAL
by: emfly
another beautiful little book. Seriously - when products are so beautifully packaged - how could i just delegate the boxes to the blue bin? this is so much more fun!


The journal measures just over 3 inches wide, by just over 5 inches high






These next 2 are not for sale on Etsy - they are made using not only reused boxes, but reused paper as well! That means that i am a bit more careful where they go to, and these ones we are using ourselves. I love this Japanese style binding though. It means that they paper doesn't need to be folded, and it makes it so much easier to use paper that is printed on one side.

ROCK ON!!!!!

(Journal, Necklace, bracelet and pencil holding necklace)

Fun for all who love music. A journal that is made by using the Wii ROCK BAND box. the cover is cut out of the cardboard that was once the box, and the paper is cut to match. This is all folded, and sewn along the fold to make a beautiful, fun, funky journal. It is unique, one of a kind, and environmentally friendly.

As well, I have several rockin' necklaces listed. These are necklaces that are made of rocks. very cool, unique, and beautiful as well.

Rock Into Spring Necklace
by emfly

This necklace is very cool, and great for a teacher or artist or writer. It has a pouch at the center of the chain that is perfect for holding a pencil, or pen, or even paint brush (you'd just want to check that it is clean first!) The beads in this necklace are also made of rocks, so it is rockin' all the way!

And finally - a beautiful bracelet made out of quartz rocks. I made this at christmas time, so the name is rockin' around the christmas tree, but it is so beautiful, and light and sparkly that it would be fun for any time of the year.

Raiders of the Blue Box

I've been busy with a new, fun passtime: making books! My mom taught me lots of techniques for making books, and before she passed away, she and I had some fun making books for my kids, and then she made some to take to a book show (sale). These books are special in that they use recovered material. Or - recycled material. We raid the blue box to get any beautiful boxes, and to save them from the recycle world - which uses so much energy to make them useful again. For these books we would sometimes use pre-printed paper as well. This would work for the books that my kids like to draw in, but for the ones that i am now trying to sell, i have to be very careful that any names, or information is not remaining on the paper. I love the books that are made with plain paper, and then there is so much more usable space as well.

One of my favorite books is a little Lego Indiana Jones Journal 002 that is made by using a box that once held Lego Indiana Jones. It is fun, and funky, yet makes a statement about reusing, and caring for the environment. These books are all hand stitched, and cut by hand. Lovingly created. Each one unique and individual. Like us - there are no 2 exactly alike! :)
