More Jenga Blocks Transformed into Desk Sitters!

More Desk/Shelf Sitters crafted from wooden Jenga blocks! I created several additional pieces using digital artwork from my collection, which I printed onto rice paper.

Cut the Jenga blocks in half heightwise, and width of the rice paper was a perfect fit. The blocks were painted with FolkArt Cottage Green Milk Paint, then I adhered the artwork using Mod Podge. Distressed the blocks for a vintage look, added the text and sealed everything with a final coat of Mod Podge.

For a few of the other desk/shelf sitters, I used FolkArt Vintage Mustard Chalk Paint and experimented with an IOD Fern Fables 2026 Collection transfer design. I love the extra character and charm these details added to the finished piece.

Measure 2.5" W x 3.75" H x 1.5" D. 

Colorful Chunky Notebook

This adorable 4.5 x 5.5 inch chunky notebook was handmade using The Cinch binding tool. The cover was laminated for durability. 

Inside you'll find a playful mix of flips, flaps, mini envelopes and pockets filled with journaling cards from Echo Park Scrapbook Papers. Additional tags & cards are secured with cheerful paper clips. 

Perfect for photos, journaling, note-taking or creative doodles, this mini notebook is as functional as it is fun!

Crafted Wood Desk/Shelf Sitters

Jenga Blocks transformed into Desk Sitters!

These Jenga Blocks had been sitting in my woodshed collecting dust, so I decided it was time to put them to better use!

Using digital artwork from my stash (CherylFrancesArt) that I had printed onto rice paper, I created my very first Desk (aka Shelf Sitter) Sitters!

Cut the height of the Jenga blocks in half and the width of the paper was the perfect fit. Painted the blocks with FolkArt Cottage Green Milk Paint  bought ages ago, attached the artwork with Mod Podge, distressed the blocks, added the text, and sealed everything with another coat of Mod Podge.

Measure 2.5 W x 3.75 H  x 1.5 inches thick.

Book Notes & Wildflowers

 For these two little 4" x 6" notebooks papers used were from Echo Park; the Bookish collection and a floral collection from Carta Bella adding additional cardstock papers for note keeping. 

 Journaling cards and color paper clips were added in the Wildflower book.

 Laminated the covers and bound using The Cinch.

 Cheerful pocket size notebooks!

Gratitude Card Notebooks...Pens Added!

I had more of these mini pens in my stash so I decided to add them to the little Gratitude Card Notebooks I recently made.

Made the pen holders by adding a loop onto colorful binder clips.  I glued coordinating pastel elastic ribbons onto the binder clips using Gorilla Super Glue. 

The binder clip pen holders are removable! 

Simple method to make pen holders for any of your favorite notebooks!

Gratitude Cards Made into Notebooks

Simple project using boxed 4 inch square gratitude cards and turning them into mini notebooks.

Used double sided tape to adhere two cards back to back to create the covers and binding them with The Cinch. For the pages I used colored cardstock. 

Fun little pocket size notebooks to toss in your bag!

Easy, Peasy!
