When I watch movies I'm itching to be doing something so this becomes the perfect time to sit and invent. I already have my Christmas/Winter papercraft stash out, organised and at hand, so it's easy to set to work. I'd found some little plain book kits and decided I would decorate them - ideal for using up offcuts from larger projects. I like to use washi tape to bind the edges of journal pages - it seems to make them look more finished.
And as I was tying the cord to bind the pages to the covers I thought of writing some Christmas/Winter quotes. This is how quite a lot of what I make happens, things evolve into objects even though I hadn't planned them. A couple of tassels tied onto the cord ends and it becomes a tiny Christmas decoration - one to be picked up and flicked through. Just add a cup of hot chocolate with a dash of brandy.
