I signed up to participate with Reddit's Secret Santa on a whim and it's totally gotten me into the holiday spirit. I wanted to make something for my recipient, so I made a little notebook using some recycled materials and an extra screen print. I made the cover out of some food container cardboard we had in the recycle bin. I sewed the print onto one side and bound some paper (using the sewing machine) on the other piece. I then just sewed them together. It's not a huge notebook, only about 3 x 5, but I really enjoyed making it and hope the person receiving it will like it too. Perhaps I'll make some more in the future.I just found out that my gift is coming from Hong Kong which has me almost giddy as to what it could be. I also received a message from my Secret Santa that said: [WARNING]: Do not consume any items you are not familiar with. Does this mean I'm getting pickled sea cucumber, a 1000 year old egg or bird's nest soup? I can't wait to find out!!!! I haven't been this excited about Christmas in a very long time!!!
