DIY Good Reminder Notebook

Let’s face it.. Every now and then we could all use a little reminder to ‘pay attention’, whether that’s focusing in class or simply being present in everyday life. With this in mind, I, Erin, gave my new fall notebook a makeover with the phrase in a modern stacked-style graphic. Why not, right? It’s a useful suggestion AND a pretty notebook cover.

If you could use a little reminder every once in a while, then you’ll be happy to know you can make this in all of 5 minutes to dress up your notebook. Together, we’ll all be off to a mindful (and cute) fall season!…

Choose a phrase that has a total number of letters with a multiple of 3. Ex. 6, 9, 12 letters.

If your phrase is short a letter consider using an exclamation point to round out the multiples of 3. I used the phrase ‘PAY ATTENTION’.

Use a ruler to determine equal spacing for rows and columns. Make a super light pencil mark at each letter location to map out your grid.

I chose ‘pay attention’ for my notebook, but there are tons of phrases out there that could also work. ‘MAKE IT HAPPEN’ and ‘YOU ARE ENOUGH’ are two others I had tossed around. What’s your good reminder?

  1. Thanks for the measuring tips! Also I have used the phrase – Be Here Now – to remind myself to be present.
