    You just showed me how I can make use of all the plastic padded envelopes I have. I knew there was a reason to keep them. Shhh 🤫 don’t tell my family that I save recyclables. Actually, they already know! Great ideas come from great minds!! 😘Also fabulous fabric cover, so contemporary!!

    Well darn, I have been tossing the plastic ones but saving the paper ones thinking they would make good journals because I like the crinkly sound they make.

    LOVE your journal....🙂
    I, now, KNOW
    That I HAVE crossed over to the other side....earlier, I found myself pulling the cardboard mail pieces
    and, putting them aside for a "junk journal" project, later.....almost, to the point, of being obsessive.....
    What?.....obsessive with throw away mail pieces?!?....oh my goodness. 😅😅😅
    There IS a positive side to this "madness".....I ACTUALLY WORKED(FINALLY)
    in my junk journal the other night....
    and, I LOVED IT!
    I felt so calm, and, relaxed, afterwards.

Now off to JoAnn’s for beautiful upholstery fabrics excited to get started. Thanks for sharing🥳❣️

  • @number1nanaof2
    @number1nanaof2 3 роки тому

    Wow factor at its best! Fantastic squish-ability. Love this. I love the tactile feeling and sound of paper and this padded envelope and fabric just added to the feel-factor. That's probably why I prefer reading a real book instead of a tablet or ipad. Maybe a tablet would be ok on a plane where reading in the dark is difficult 🤷‍♀️🤪 Anyway, this was great. So many great ideas here. I am sure you must get some help from Sunny and Holly. They give you such support. Thank you for showing us more inventive journal making. God bless! 🥰

Also, wanted to tell you, I found another glue by Beacon called Multi-Grip that works just like Fabri-Tac. It works on so many different surfaces I think I could build a house with it! Tile, brick, concrete, wood, glass, leather and FABRIC! 😆 TFS.
