My mother-in-love found this old hymnal at a thrift store and immediately knew I could use it to make a repurposed journal.
Old books are so awesome because the covers feature different variations of embossing or debossing. So neat!
Since this was an old hymnal, I used sheet music scrapbook paper for the inside paste pages.
I also added a ribbed brown ribbon bookmark.
Sing it with me, y’all: Joy to the world, this book is done! 
In this period of depression I have been in….This journal has been a huge blessing to me. Thanks for selling it to me. I have been enjoying filling it up.
Your work is wonderful!!
Aww, glad I could help, T. Sorry to hear you’ve been down. Hope things are looking up!!
