DIY Harry Potter Hogwarts acceptance letter travelers notebook or midori notebook cover tutorial

Описание: This is a tutorial on how to make a DIY Harry Potter acceptance letter travelers notebook cover. Also called midori notebooks or fauxdori notebooks. These covers have elastics that allow you to insert a soft cover notebook or catchier notebook. In the travelers notebook world they are just called “inserts”. You can buy them online in your preferred size or easily make your own by cutting and folding paper to your size notebook (use a straight edge and craft knife to keep the edges even or leave them uneven is fine too). This is a great system for planners and especially bullet journaling. I like to have one insert for each section of my bullet journal. I have an art journal insert, a list journal insert, a monthly calendar insert with the whole year on it, a weekly planner, and a habit tracker insert. I also have pocket inserts for cards and pens and receipts etc. if you don’t want to carry a lot one day, you can take out some to lighten your load. It’s so flexible.

ELASTIC THREADING SEQUENCE:
top three holes are #’s 1, 2, and 3 left to right. Bottom are 4, 5, and 6 left to right.
Staring inside your journal with envelope top pointing right: OUT 1 IN 2 OUT 5 IN 6 OUT 3 IN 2 OUT 5 IN 4 THEN TIE.
