My First Album
made from paper lunch bags
I saw one made where the bottoms of the bags are glued together and make little flaps
or pockets inside the album.
The bags provide an accordion effect that allows
for bulk inside the album without strain on the binding.
Yes Blue is my favorite color
so I went with a winter theme.
Here you can see the ribbon I used to bind the bags together to make the book.
I used 6 lunch bags
In pairs
Back of the book
Here you can see a little of the binding.
That part took me awhile to figure out.
I am happy I gave this a try and even started another one that I like a lot better.

Love it... how fun! Do you know what the binding is called ? Just curious! Can't wait to finish my Halloween one and start on Christmas lol
That is so interesting. Great to do with the youngsters too.
Very clever and lovely done in the blue and white.
Looks great, Lee! What a pretty album!
Very Pretty! Almost done with mine and will start my next one soon.
@Pam of alwaysartistic It's called Lee's answer to hooking the bags together lol
@Carol Blackburn I think older kids would love to make their own book.
