✨How to make a beaded spine-charm for your journal with letter beads✨
Due to popular demand (thank you so much for the love), here is a video in which I talk you through how I make my spine-charms.
I’m using 1.5mm covered elastic which you can easily get online or from haberdashery shops. You can totally use transparent non-covered elastic, too. I think the fabric-like texture is a nice detail though and it adds to its durability. At the same time non-covered elastic may be more "invisible" and have less bulk. Have fun experimenting with different combos!
The beads are from TK Maxx and Solstrene Grene.
I hope you enjoy this video. Any questions leave me a comment and I’ll try and help!
Thank you for watching and happy beading! 😁

    This is a very cute journal decoration, makes me want to dig out my age-old letter beads. 😄 For the Weeks you could also string the elastic trough the hollow of the spine to make the elastic and join completely hidden, but that would mean that you can't take the beads off without cutting the string.

      HON just has a hardbook cover. Same contents inside.

    • @thejournalingpotato
      @thejournalingpotato 2 місяці тому

      To add to what @charnguyen22 said: This particular "Paper Series Black Gingham" is more of a soft cover. It has the same dimensions like the Cousin, because the cover edges are cut flush with the pages. The hardback-Hons have covers that protrude over the actual pages and the cover material is wrapped around the hard cover. And therefore the width and height is larger than that of the Cousin/Paper Series Hon. Be careful though, some of the photos on the Hobonichi site for my Black Gingham actually show the hardback-Hons.

      I think and from what I hear others are saying..., Hobonichi is likely to restock the Yumi covers - they've just been so popular I don't see how they can not restock. I don't know at what time they'll restock though. The actual Hon I'm sure will remain in stock continuously for a while.

    @missfl0werstar 2 місяці тому

    The "discoloration" is due to light. Over time, undied leather changes color as a reaction to UV rays, humidity, etc. Now this reaction varies from one piece of leather to the next because they're from different body parts or animals, but also because the light and those other factors hit them differently. Most of my undyed covers display this variety, which is just part of their beauty. Hope this helps.

    • @thejournalingpotato
      @thejournalingpotato 2 місяці тому

      Oh I haven't thought about UV damages. You're right that the sun can definitely cause discolourations... But in this case I think the lining is also a dyed leather, same as the yellow outer. I rarely have this cover open and if it was sun damage shouldn't the bit that's discoloured in my cover remain unaffected because I had a sticker there the whole time? I'm still going with the theory of oils from my fingers. It's not a huge deal as I still love the cover and I can just continue to cover the area with a sticker, hehe. Thank you for sharing your experiences with me though!

    • @thejournalingpotato
      @thejournalingpotato 2 місяці тому

      Hello! I have two holders I store PET tapes in. One is a Muji plastic business card holder - I take one loop of PET take and cut them shorter so they fit in the slots. I like this one as I find it more portable. And I also keep sticker flakes and other bits in. The other one is a larger A5-ish sized plastic folder from AliExp that has 2 broad vertical sections per sleeve. In there I can leave the loop sections much longer and I only use it for PET tapes or washi tapes. I definitely use the items more that I see, hehe. Hope this helps!

On another note - the discolouration inside your journal cover - is it worth trying one of those white 'magic' eraser sponge thingies, in case it's just surface? Do you know the sponges I mean?

      The lady was a pro for sure!! 😂 I know which ones you mean. But I think the leather surface is going to get damaged by the abrasiveness of the sponges... I think I'm happy just to live with it. I can use a sticker to cover up that discoloured bit and hope there won't be more areas going funny in colour, haha.

      Yes, gifting is defo a good idea. I had two PanAm blue covers and gifted one of those. That person was just getting into journaling and was talking about travelling so I thought it was a good fit for them. I may save this one to gift... or maybe the Tokyo edition. We'll see 😬

    Gosh that vintage blue colour is beautiful 💙!! I notice your copperwist products too - I think their products are stunning and look super high quality.

      I love that gentle blue - they picked well. What do you mean by Copperwist products? I googled them and a jewellery brand came up - do you mean them? Sorry if that's a stupid question 😬

    This was my first TN. I’m not a fan of the black cover. Hoping to trade for the Tokyo Station (train) standard size.

      Oh the Tokyo station one is a fave amongst many TN users I think. Th brown leather is just so good. Thank you for watching! ❤️

    I'm not sure I like the notebook, but the pencils and the charm are neat!

      Ah, it's a good thing if you don't like the cover - less money spent! Haha, that's often how I see it: phew, I don't like it! Thanks for watching and taking time to comment!

    love this cover! blue is usually among my least favourite colours, but this shade is singlehandedly changing my mind about that :)) it would make a great reading journal, if you decide to go down that route! i don't journal while reading either, but i mark pages to go back to or write thoughts in my notes app and use those to fill in my journal sporadically. so glad you've found a use for the tokyo one too, though i appreciated your honest thoughts on it when you were unboxing it.

      I definitely want to be better at taking notes when reading. So a reading journal is on the cards for next year! Thank you for watching my videos 🫰
