Re: Creative Chaos - Smash book style
Thanks for replies gals :)
We are starting the fun, stressful, crazy endeavor to build our own house! I'm going to use a smash style journal to keep tract of contact info, estimates, what we get done or attempt day to day, inspiration snip-its - just a good way to look back and remember this time and the planning process because I won't always have pics to scrap :)
Re: Creative Chaos - Smash book style
If you have a Walmart nearby (or a Target/Kmart, because they'd probably have them), they might have the Smashbook accessories cheaper. Then you can do a hybrid version of it. Your own binders and things (and you can get a lot of that cheaper through Amazon, in bigger bulk sizes), and the little accessories like that :D

Oh! I sorta...now get it...
[sorta]
I did [am doing] a project 52 - just for me this year. That was a big step for me. The site I was participating at closed, but I am continuing. I will complete.
Thank you,

Re: Creative Chaos - Smash book style
I remember wayyyyy back in the day..LOL. I can't remember what we used to call it, I think it might be SMASH? but maybe I'm thinking that because we're talking about the smash books?? LOL.. BUT,I remember in elementary school, we would put together a notebook or some sort and on each page write a question. Then pass it around to each other.
I have a book similar to a SMASH book from also WAYYYYY back! It has ticket stubs, old napkins with restaurant names, etc.
Re: Creative Chaos - Smash book style
This makes me want to give it a try! I've looked for similar things but never found anything that worked for me. These might be just what I need. I love tangible things and I have a huge box of ticket stubs, postcards, etc that need a home!
Re: Creative Chaos - Smash book style
I love smash book, but I never tried it!
As Sarah said: on Amazon you can have a good price, for sure!
Re: Creative Chaos - Smash book style
Joann Fabrics had them on sale for 40% off. My daughter and I bought one. I will probably use it as a planner or art/ inspiration journal. They also have a blog for more ideas.
Re: Creative Chaos - Smash book style
I checked out stuff at Walmart and totally ignored it. They didn't have what I was hoping for (I'm way too spoiled by digital scrapbooking).
Re: Creative Chaos - Smash book style
I think you could do it without buying all the things, just get a cheap book, use a pen from around the house, and use what you already have, I like one of the videos where someone cut things and saying out of magazines she already has to pop in as starters then adds the bits and pieces she has kept
I might do something like that but it wouldnt have to cost anything it would have to be with what I have
Re: Creative Chaos - Smash book style
I do really like the pen how it has the glue already in it. But I'm with Cee, I would just use a blank journal that I already have and just purchase the pen which is only a few $.
