Favorite-Shape Address Book

What You’ll Need:

• pencil or marker
• poster board
• scissors
• paper
• hole punch
• yarn
• decorations

How to Make It:

1. For your book, select a simple shape that’s special to you, such as a basketball or a guitar. Draw the shape on poster board and cut it out.

2. Trace around the shape once onto poster board and eight times onto paper. Cut out the shapes.

3. Place the paper shapes between the two poster-board shapes. Punch two holes at the edge of each shape, and tie all of them together with two pieces of yarn.

4. Decorate the cover of your address book. Inside, write the names, addresses, e-mail addresses, phone numbers, and birthdays of people you know. Or leave the book empty and give it as a gift.
