I was so inspired by Kim and Elizabeth's home management notebooks that I worked on mine this past weekend.
I used the same divider headers that I found on Kim's site although I also plan to make some others for our family's needs. I'd like to add a Recipe divider and a Schedule divider as well. I also plan to add a plastic pocket in the back for stamps and my monthly calendar. In the meantime, here is what I have done so far. The photos do not show the colors very well but they are mainly browns, pinks, plums and greens.

(Stole the quote from Kim.)
I used printed papers and added some embellishments like raised stickers and transfers.
I have kept a home management notebook since my Flylady days but it was neither as pretty nor as thorough a resource until I began compiling mine using Kim and Elizabeth's ideas. Their series on the homemaking journals has been especially helpful to me. I was going to link all of the pertinent posts from Kim's site but rather, if you go here and start from the bottom up, you will find the posts in order. Elizabeth's pretty notebook can be seen here. Maybe you'd like to make a notebook for your home!
