diy personalized journal

hi! i came up with this idea how to transform plain journals and planners from being boring and unusable, into something super cute and super easy to make, and once i tried it (and it turned out awesome..) i thought i would share it with you!

all you need is...

a plain journal (it can be paperback, hardcover, leather, ect.) 

old postcards, envelopes, vintage typewriter paper, ect.

mod podge

scissers, glue stick, paint brush (not shown)

first see if one of your envelopes or whatever you're using fits the cover of your journal nicely. if it doesn't, you will have to cut it down to size. mine did. 

next cut it into strips. this was extremely nerve-wracking for me because i only have a few of these old envelopes and i didn't want to ruin any of them. just be brave and do it.

heeeeyyyy lookie its my strips of envelope wahooo

next put glue on the strip you want to go on the top part

okaaay now glue all of them and put them all on. they don't have to be perfectly aligned or anything. see mine, its all like, everywhere. and i like it like that.

now put some mod podge on there. and then spread it around with a paint brush.

now just wait for it to dry and it's done! see below for finished project (i did it like 3 times.. hahah)

i covered my planner with postcards... and i didn't realize this until it was done, but the cover was clear. so it made the cool backside of the postcards on there. i love it.

i made two journals and a planner. (:

the edges kinda curled on this one. but that's okay. it gives it character. 

hope you enjoyed this quick little tutorial!

news.

hey guys!

i need to let you know that i will be taking a break from blogging for a little while... i have been really busy trying to finish school and preparing for summer and such.

i will be back soon, don't worry! also, this isn't a sad thing, its actually really happy! blogging has made it tough for me to have a life outside of my bedroom, and most of the reason i am taking a break is because i need to get out more, and also get some new inspiration for this blog.

i am going to use this time to redesign my blog (i need a change!) and also to focus more on photography, and more craft tutorials and outfit posts. hopefully some hair tutorials too:)

i will be back shortly:)

have an amazing couple of weeks!

xo, hannah mae

sponsor swap.

So, I've had this blog for a while now, but in the past month it has really been growing, we have gotten about 2,000 views in the past month, and have gotten 18 followers! I am super excited that my little blog has grown!

I thought it was time to do something fun for you guys!

I am doing a.................

Because my blog is pretty new, rather than selling ad space, I'd love to swap it! I'll put your button on my sidebar if you put mine in yours!

This is a super easy way to get more traffic to your blog, but also gets me more traffic too! 

All you have to do is email me at: letitrainlove.blog@gmail.com with Sponsor Swap in the subject area...

This is for the month of April, so hurry and reserve your ad space, I only have room for a few of them! 

Have an amazing day!

xoxo,
