5 Innovative Ways to Re-Use an Old Diary

While clearing out my book-closet, I tumbled upon a few old unused diaries. Beautiful unwritten pages. I simply couldn't get myself to throw these out, so there I sat thinking. If I am not going to write in them, why not convert them into something else!

So let's get our things together,
1. Old diaries
2. Old newspaper clippings
3. A pair of scissors
4. Glue

1st idea

DONATE
Never feel shy about giving unused things (in acceptable condition) to someone who really needs it.

2nd Idea 

Convert it into a comic book.
I am sure none of us read those newspaper comic strips daily. So why not just put it in one place for an enjoyable read later. Coose a comic strip of your liking and get going.

Cut out the unwanted pages first. Paste the comics strips.

 Be creative. Give it a personal touch!

 If not Dennis, then perhaps, Calvin and Hobbes

Or other strips, whatever makes your day.

3rd Idea

Make an Activity Book.
You can also paste the unfinished Sudoku cut-outs, i.e. if you are a Sudoku fan.
Or scrabble, or crossword and other such activities.

I have made one for my daughter :)

I have used some random stickers to make it look more interesting.

4th Idea

Convert it into a photo album.

I know all the photos we have these days are DIGITAL.
But for a change, we can convert an old unused diary into a personalised photo album. And it is economical too! :D

On a fine evening, simply switch off that TV/phone/TAB and enjoy peeping in this album together. Trust me, it's fun!

5th Idea

Convert it into a travel journal.
Note down the funny quotes and the places you found them in. If possible take a click and paste a copy on the page with the date. This one definitely would be a fun read a few years down the lane.

Lastly, don't forget to decorate the cover.

Hope you do try out one of these artful concepts!
Doodle, decorate, get creative but don't waste it! :) And do it together!
