A random project I have been working on lately is making some more miniature books to plop into my dolls' Huset bookshelf. These two album-sized books are ones I particularly like!

I'm sure there are several ways to go about a DIY like this. Different ways to do the pages, or ways to make the books look super realistic. But I'm just kinda doing my own thing using leftover scrapbooking card stock and notebook papers of various types. Oh, and also washi tape!

I have a lot of paper pads and so many of them come with these ugly sheets with "live, laugh, love" types of things written on them. I have no use for them. I also have a lot of small scraps of card stock from other projects. They've been perfect to use for tiny book covers!

Also useful: binder clips, these ancient stickers that go on the edges of corners (they might be for scrapbooking? Embellishing the edges of pages or pictures? Not sure), and this tray to keep it all together while I assemble things. The miniature notebook dedicated some of its pages.

I have also collected some mini books from Michael's. These have a sort of farmhouse/cottagecore theme, which is perfect. Petaline and Plummery will love them, and they'll help fill out my bookshelf.

I've been very interested in acquiring more miniatures!
