DIY Hot Glue Book
From the blogger: "Making your own book at home couldn’t be easier when you use a DIY Hot Glue Book Binding. Watch this video to see how to do it. You will be impressed with how easily (and quickly!) this book comes together! This book is called "The happy project,” since it is for writing about one thing every day about what makes you happy. The book itself is very simple to make, and as a paper crafter you probably already have all the supplies at home! Make this book in any color of your choice."

I love this! So quick, inexpensive and simple. I'm really thinking I've seen different types of glue sticks for sale maybe some of them offer more flexibility than the standard clear ones. The flexibility issue is the only thing I see that would cause this to fall apart. Or, if enough glue is used, the spine may be so rigid, the pages will fold instead of the spine.
