Basket Case
I made my first case binding today.
Just a matter of cutting and sticking really but I am absurdly pleased with the slightly skew-wiff (albeit functional) result.
Trouble is, the pages are scarily white and blank and the cover is even scarier since I happen to have covered it with graph paper - all those little empty squares...
The instruction book I'm using suggests 'distressing' new notebooks to overcome the scary blank page problem: scribble, or draw, or put prompts on the pages. I might have to try that.
Pity I can't 'distress' the empty window on here before I start typing drivel into it.
Why is it so much easier to write stuff on a page that's already got something on it, though? Are we so conditioned against wasting 'new' paper, or is it a fear more fundamental than that?
Some exploration is called for, I think...
