Notepad List Folios

These fun Notepad List Folios measure approximately 3.5" W x 7" H and are perfect for keeping your shopping lists and notes organized.

Each folio features an elastic pen loop with a pen, an elastic closure, and a pocket on the inside front cover. The included notepad measures 3" x 7" and has a full-size magnetic sheet on the back. The notepad is removable, so you can place your shopping list on the fridge and keep it handy until you're ready to shop! Folios are reusable, just replace with a new pad!

I was inspired to create a few of these folios after stumbling upon a YouTube channel that demonstrated the entire process of making them. I used various Echo Park and Carta Bella Paper Collections and their coordinating stickers.

If you'd like to make some of your own, you can visit the channel here. She provides step-by-step instructions for creating these fun and useful folios.

Boxed Sets of Mini Notebooks

I created several of these boxed mini notebooks in two different sizes. They're a fun and simple way to use up the cut-apart sheets that are often included in scrapbook paper collections. For these, I used paper collections from Echo Park and Carta Bella.

I made both 3-inch square notebooks and 3 × 4-inch notebooks, each with its own coordinating gift box.

The notebooks are simply bound with staples and filled with white and pastel copy paper, making them quick to assemble and perfect for sweet little gifts.

I was inspired by a tutorial from The Posh Paper Lady. I also used her box tutorial, then adjusted the dimensions to create a smaller box to fit the 3-inch square mini notebooks.

The notebooks are simply bound with staples and filled with cream and lavender copy paper, making them quick to assemble and perfect for sweet little gifts.

Retro Office Chair - Swivel 'Propeller' Base

The label on the chair identifies the manufacturer as Harter Corporation, of Sturgis, Michigan, a company best known for manufacturing institutional, hospital, medical, and office furniture. Harter produced seating for universities and government offices from the mid-20^th century onward.

 This is a swivel task/office chair manufactured approximately 1968-1980, Model 468. It has a cast aluminum four-star base, heavy-duty steel seat frame, thick vinyl upholstery and industrial construction characteristic of their office furniture. The cast aluminum 4-leg pedestal base has a swivel mechanism and heavy duty height adjustment. Molded aluminum arm supports with padded armrests with thick commercial-grade vinyl upholstery. Robust construction-built for decades of service. Love these vintage finds! 

Amano Vintage Punch Time Clock

Vintage Amano mechanical time recorder

 

The clock belongs to Amano’s 9000 series. The production period was most likely between 1973 to 1978. It’s newer than the late-1960’s models because of the safety labeling, solenoid design, and 9000-series mechanism.

 The large exposed gear is part of the clock drive train. The blue ribbon spool appears to be intact. The mechanism looks remarkably clean with no obvious corrosion or missing parts. The zinc chromate plating still has its original gold/iridescent finish, suggesting relatively little use or excellent storage conditions.

 Not terribly rare, but super cool, I love vintage mechanical machines!

Floral Boho Greeting Cards Transformed!

These vibrant boho greeting cards have been given a new life as beautiful covers for a collection of mini notebooks.

The cards were carefully glued back-to-back to create sturdy, durable covers. Several additional greeting cards were incorporated inside as decorative side pockets, attached by gluing only along the top and bottom edges for a functional and unique touch.

The horizontal notebooks feature coordinating pastel-lined index card pages, while the vertical notebooks include colorful cardstock pages with bright, tabbed dividers for added flair.

Dimensions:

• Three horizontal notebooks: 5" W × 3.5" H
• Two vertical notebooks: 3.5" W × 5" H
• All bound using The Cinch
