Do anything you like to alter this book (a book i made by hand from printed booklets from NYU’s Student Health Center). I chose a loose topic of “dreams” you can interpret that however you choose.

This journal appears to be stalled with an inactive moocher.

My Favorite Muppet, Vol. 2

Posted on June 11, 2008 by bookmoochjournals

Ah, Muppets. They’re soft and furry and some of them have snouts. They make you laugh. Some of us even grew up with them. First on Sesame Street, the on The Muppet Show on televsion, until finally on the big screen. Who is your favorite Muppet?

This is an altered book that started life as a Golden Book called See You Later, Mashed Potater. Use the words and images in the book or cover them up. Be creative. Think outside the box. Draw, paint, collage, stamp, color. Text is okay, too. Because there are only 14 pages in this book, I’d like to ask that each journaler add not more than 2 spreads.

Please only keep the journal for 2 weeks before you pass it to another BookMoocher. Please do not destroy, change, or remove someone else’s work.

After you are done adding your art, please put the journal back into this same page I’ve created for it here at BookMooch so someone else can mooch it and add to it. When it is full, please contact me via email to arrange for the journey home.

The Trip I Never Took

Posted on May 26, 2008 by bookmoochjournals

I’ve been a lot of places, but here is a trip I never took. This is a Frommer’s Travel Planner Journal. I bought it at Savers, to plan a trip to Washington DC for the summer of 2007. The trip was canceled. You can read about it and see my notes. I wrote all over the maps for this project, not as part of the trip planning, you can too, use a different ink pen/color than mine. The front pocket has some items, use them as you will. ADD something new. Place your business card in the back or alter a fake credit card, I did. Relabel the tabs, list the states and places you have been. Tell us about your USA or abroad travels. Tell about the trip you never took, or one you want to take. Add a postcard or take a postcard for any reason, any state. Cut up a map and paste. Have fun. Dont alter others work. The front maps and cover are the free zone. Please add a yarn, ribbon or fiber to the elastic strap that keeps it closed.
Pleas return finished book to 8izenuff when you are finished. Please only keep two weeks, dont mooch it if you are too busy. ISBN is TRIPNEVERTOOK Relist it so others can have a turn.

This journal was marked lost in the post in  2009 but appears to have resurfaced.
