Look what a dollar buys !

On Friday my daughter and 4 of her friends are coming over to kick start "friendship fridays", i've decided to take Bianca out of school one day a week and allow her a chance to try out a new experience -with some of her friends that are home schooled.  
I thought they may want to write about their experience, or have a little journal, a place to write, draw and create.  So I went to the GIRO (Gabriola Island Recycling Organization) and picked up these old books for 5 for $1.  They'll transform them with a little Gesso and a lot of creativity into journals.
Apparently if we gesso the inside pages, maybe saving a "special" word from the page, and put wax paper between them as they dry, we should have a few very unique journals.  I'll update you as the transformation of these books into journals happens.
