My second 100 Day Project for 2026 is a Scrap a Day project. This 100 Day Project started on February 22 and I’m adding a 1-1/4” square to a small, handmade journal to document ordinary, daily activities.

| 100 Day Project 2026: Scrap-a-Day |
This is the front cover of my Scrap-a-Day journal (4-1/4” x 5-5/8”) beside the paper punch I use for punching out the daily squares. At some point, I’ll add a title to the cover.
