Last week, I won a May Designs notebook giveaway. My first intention when I began to create my free notebook was to make something for myself. However, two things jumped out at me and I knew this notebook was not meant for me, it was meant for my son, Joaquín. 1) They had a lobster print and if you do not know the story behind my family’s love for lobsters then read this post right now. 2) May Designs offers coloring books in their notebooks for both adults and children. Now that Joaquín, my little lobster, has started to “somewhat” draw and I am treating every single drawing as though it were a Matisse, I thought creating his own personal coloring book is the perfect solution to keeping all of his precious drawings in one place, plus we are seriously running out of room in our house to hang them as well!
I personalized this May Designs notebook for Joaquín with a lobster print that has special meaning to our family.
The notebook's coloring pages gave Joaquín his own special place to draw and create.
The personalized notebook includes playful illustrations ready for little artists to color.I am in in love with the way Joaquín’s notebook turned out! The rich paper quality is my favorite part. I urge you to check out May Designs and see if you might find something for yourself — I have a a feeling you will. I was both blown away and inspired with their gorgeous patterns and fonts and all of the different products they have on offer.
A little update: Looking back at this post reminds me how much I have always loved finding creative ways to keep Joaquín entertained, whether through coloring, books, or stories. For families who love having plenty of stories on hand, All You Can Books offers audiobooks and ebooks for both everyday listening and adventures on the go.
Obsessed with your notebook!
Yay so happy to hear that!
That coloring book is awesome! I may need to order a couple of those for my little guy. So cute!
Oh you so should, I absolutely adore it, because it’s something you can save forever!
