My husband is the hardest person to buy Christmas presents for. He has very few things that he actually wants so when there is something that peaks his interests, he just buys it for himself. But alas, I am determined to come up with something. He needed a little notebook or note pad to carry around with him and keep track of his daily to-do lists. Instead of just getting a boring old notebook, I spruced it up by making it like the notebook featured in a movie we watched together last Christmas: Death Note.
I forgot to take a picture before I wrapped it up, but the inside says "This journal belongs to" and I wrote in "Shinigami Ryuk" (a reference to the movie that fans will be able to appreciate).
The notebook is about 6 inches tall and cost $6 at Walmart. I used white acryllic paint to free-hand the writing. It's far from perfect, but I think that adds to it -- it look slike a Shinigami would have sprawled it quickly and carelessly.
