I got quite excited about this word :) What sprang to mind is "Diary of a Mad Housewife" so I decided to make a moleskine into a house and use the idea of the text viewable through the door and windows ( I have done this before and loved it!) This helps the diary resemble the cover for Sue Kaufman's book. My version and my writings are modified from the original of course and illustrates the madness that plagues me in my constant creating of buildings and homes. My submission for Illustration Friday's " diary" theme is a journal called "Diary of a Mad HouseMaker.

This is so cool! I love the curves of the windows, door, and roof.
I like everything about this! Nicely done.
Hhahaha!! I completely love the play on words for your crazy and wild world of house making!
This is very clever (clever is SO good).
It is no surprise that you may be a bit of a home body because you surround yourself with everything 'home'. :O)

A fine madness indeed!
I love how you've created a sanctuary for the diary of a madly creative house builder, love the cutout windows and door giving a glimpse into the contents- So very appropriate all around! :o)
I love this little diary house! such a beautiful idea :-) wonderful work xx
This is excellent nice to see something out of the box or off the page in this case.
Pero que ingeniosa, comeo me gusta esta libreta, pero mucho, mucho.
Pero que arte tienen esas manos, eres genial.

Brilliant idea, it works really well too.
Now that's a diary I'd have to sneak away and read!! hehehe!

you know what i really dig about the third and fourth photo? i love the shadow that the house-dairy casts...the roof and door and windows...added with the book itself, it's like two designs in the same photo.
...like a shadow puppet. ;o)
