Every year during back to school time composition books always go on sale. I mean honestly, they're not really expensive to begin with, but this really is the best time to stock-up on them. Who doesn't love journals? I have my "gratitude journal" at my bedside that I write in every night before I go to sleep. They make great inexpensive, but "made from the heart" gifts that people can not just appreciate, but can actually use. They're even more special when you make the personalized with someone's favorite color and monogram of their initial, such as the one below. I know, I made this one for myself. Wink! Wink! Can you tell Cherry Cobbler is one of my favorite colors?
Here's one we made at one of my live local classes that I hold in my home every month.
You can turn this...

How about a matching bookmark to go along with it?
