Joy Wooden Gift Blocks

January 16, 2014 by Rebecca Wagner 6 Comments

christmas trees 105

Joy to the world, the Lord has come…..oh wait, the holidays are over, aren’t they? Hey, I can still have some Christmas spirit, right? After all, like my nephew says, “Aunt Becki, it’s snowing. That means it’s Christmas!!” Silly, silly child. If it meant getting a smile or two at the grocery store, I am all for it. People can be so grumpy in the after-holiday debt recovery. O_O Anyway, you know me, always a day late and a dollar short with posting projects. I made these cute little wooden JOY blocks for a present. Very festive, isn’t it?

Joy Wood Blocks

Sorry I am so late on these. Maybe you can make it next year if you like it. They are just painted wood with decoupaged paper on the front. I was going to use vinyl for the letters, instead it is a black shimmer paper. The embellishments are buttons with the backs cut. Wrap just one block or wrap all three together with ribbon to finish it off. Ta-da!

    Hi I’m dropping by from the SITS Tribe and just wanted to say Hello. Those blocks are seriously cut and I can see them being adapted for other holidays or celebrations too. It would be a cute new baby present.

6x8 spiral notebook refill, Deluxe Monthly, paired with one of our new romance covers, and yes… it fits perfectly in Coach notebooks. Clean pages, roomy layout, zero chaos energy.

If you’re a monthly planner who wants structure and pretty, this is it.

These are Crimson Luxe top tabs in two versions: one with reinforced holes, one without.

The goal here is simple:
How well do they hold up when you pop them in, move them around, and reposition dividers as needed?

Early takeaway?
These aren’t meant to be shuffled around constantly like a disc planner. This is more of a place-them-with-intention, then let them live there situation.

I’m testing both versions to see what actually holds up in real use, not just what looks good in photos.
More notes once I’ve abused them a little more. 😏

If this works… I may have just solved a problem that’s been living rent-free in my head.

No promises yet, but I’m cautiously optimistic and slightly smug about it. 💅📒✨

Sneak peek at the A5 spirals made just for the Coa Sneak peek at the A5 spirals made just for the Coach notebook.
White plastic coil, slim cardboard backing so it slides right into the pocket, and cardstock covers — personalized, not coated.

Alien cover = Monthly Deluxe (with lined pages in back).
Bookshelf cover = Weekly Horizontal Compact.

We did have to cut the deluxe notes section to keep everything on a smaller coil (so the weekly fits), but we’re still testing what else we can add… including a special feature I’m not spilling yet.

Trying to make this thing as functional as humanly possible — stay tuned. 👀✨

Our A5 Coach notebook is finally getting the glow-up she deserves, and we’re playing with different refill styles to see what fits, flips, and feels right inside that TikTok-famous cover.

This spiral beauty is one of the contenders — and yes, we’re this close to having the perfect setup. Stay tuned… it’s all coming together. ✨📚

Who else is ready to upgrade their Coach with something way more functional than the paper it came with?

✨Who’s got the A5 Coach notebook… and who’ ✨Who’s got the A5 Coach notebook… and who’s already hunting for a refill because that lined pad it came with lasted about 12 seconds? 😅

It’s TikTok-famous and cute, but the “calendar” situation? Yeah… we can do better.

We’re in testing mode to create actually gorgeous refills for it — monthlies, weeklies, and all the pages this thing should have come with in the first place.

Question for you:
👉 What kind of refill would you want first — monthly, weekly, or notes?

Stay tuned. This baby’s about to level up. 📆🌸
