Laminated Traveler’s Notebook Cover
I’ve been making Traveler’s Notebook covers for quite some time now. I make covers for Mini Happy Planners, Starter Budget kits, and B6 Traveler’s Notebook sets for my Etsy shop. However, the size of a Happy Planner Half Sheet (Happynichi) proves to be more challenging. The challenge comes in because of the size of the Happy Planner, letter or legal sized laminating sheets don’t really work.
Happynichi Sized Traveler’s Notebook Cover
I found a way to overcome this obstacle. By using a larger laminating machine (that fits up to 13 inch wide laminating sheets) and menu sheets, I can make the cover I need. I utilize my Happynichi TN everyday. I feel that it protects my planner since I throw it in my purse.
Check out my tutorial on YouTube as I show you how to make one of your own (two methods). Or save yourself the time and effort and check out my Etsy shop. Etsy Shop: Happynichi Traveler’s Notebook Cover
