Recycled Journal Notebooks. Yum.
There are moms who buy sleek leather-trimmed MomAgendas to keep themselves organized. And there are moms like me who buy Cinnamon Life recycled spiral notebooks to keep their lists. Okay, I wouldn’t cry if my husband decided to put a MomAgenda in my stocking this year. But these recycled notebooks are so crazy and fun. They’re handmade from discarded boxes, filled with recycled paper and backed with heavy-duty chipboard. And they come in SO MANY choices – including Swanson TV dinners, cereal boxes, animal crackers, soy milk, candy…I could go on, but I highly recommend taking a look for yourself. It’s fun to search for a product that has a special meaning for someone and then surprise them with this super-personalized gift. Way better than a monogrammed bar of soap!

First of all, I am a huge fan of lists! I keep little spiral notebooks handy at all times; I’d lose my mind if I didn’t. So this entry definitely caught my eye, and I just had to visit the website to peruse a few more of the choices you mentioned. Must admit, the kitty litter and panty liner covers are not my favorites … do people actually buy those? But I do love the kids cereal (like AppleJacks and Cap’n Crunch) and the candy boxes … so fun! I am seriously tempted to add one to my stocking stuffer list =) P.S. Your site ROCKS!
Okay, maybe the “yum” doesn’t apply to all of these journal covers! I agree, I love having a notebook handy for my to-do lists. I bought one “for my husband” because Cinnamon Life is his favorite cereal, but I think I’ll be getting more use out of it than he will! Thanks for your nice comment about the site.
