I even got a pink paper clip in there. And a feather…

pink goes well with yellow, yes?

Pink and yellow goes so well together, don’t you think?

  1. Hanna, so simple and fun! Will you be playing further with these pages, or letting the book be as it is?

  2. This is such a fun idea. I’m already thinking of some things for mine. When I get some pages done I’ll share.

  3. Thanks for your lovely comments!

    Tammy, I will try to write some notes on some of the pages, about the colours and what they mean to me etc, but nothing more. It’s a collection of colours to me, not an artsy book. Though I like that the pages are so pretty- they make me happy. :-)

  4. I’m so glad you posted again on this. i’ve had your first post queued up in my rss reader for ages, to remind me to start a purple book. But I haven’t started yet and it was beginning to slip my mind. This has reminded to get back in there and do it. Must get a spiral bound notebook for this.

  5. i’d like to start a purple journal. i guess i have one started. but it is a altered book cut down into a triangle. i started it in a class. but i like the spiral idea. i intend to get a sewing machine. can you/do you sew in your spiral bound journal?

  6. Purple is popular, let me know if you post any pics online! I’d love to see!

    Brigitte, I don’t think sewing is very easy in any bound book, but I managed to sew a few lines across the ribbon page on my sewing machine. If you make the spiral book yourself I suggest you sew pages before binding them together though. :-) Have fun! Thanks for commenting!

  7. Thanks for sharing such great ideas! I like what you have done so far. I actually did start mine but haven’t posted any pictures yet. I’m chugging away through my blue/green palette – who knew there could be so many shades of a color? Thanks again for the inspiration!

  8. I’m catching up, here. Are we to make a journal of our favorite color(s) ? I would love to do a green one! I love pink and yellow together, but pink and orange and lime green… ! awesome.
    love your journal.

  9. Chris, you make me smile with your “are we to make”? You don’t have to my dear, hehe, but you sure can be inspired around here, huh? The assignment though, if you choose to accept it and have time for another journal/sketchbook (?) is “to collect a colour” and learn about it, see previous post about my pink book. I picked pink because it’s a favorite, you could pick your least liked colour or any one you want to spend time with. Then go explore! :-)
