As a dyed in the wool pack rat, I love this idea for a journal! I love the Graphics Fairy, and her wonderful collection of ephemera! Thanks for sharing!

Thank you so much!
Love this. Never heard of pack rat journal. Love the stitching all over. Thanks for sharing. I’m loving my membership at The Geaphics Fairy. So many cool images and tutorials 👍♥️
Fabulous journal!
Stunning! ❤
I just saw this video? I thought I had watched all of your video's...But I was wrong, happily so. Because this has inspired me to make a cover I had been thinking about, but was unsure how to incorporate some felt hand stitching on a cover. Kinda reminiscent to a penny stitch. You probably know what that is, but in case others don't know...it's a common Amish craft style of hand embroidery around circles of felt using different colors of felt and embroidery floss. I live in Ohio and we have a lot of Amish communities I have gotten to know so many because I boarded my horse in an Amish area for a few years. I saw a lot of hand made Amish quilts and crafts from all the fun home based shops in the Amish community. I hope I can pull it off. Thank you for the inspiration! :) (Sorry if TMI)
I love that idea!! I don't think I've ever seen a penny stitch style junk journal cover, that would be so cool! I used to live in Pennsylvania, and attended weekly auctions with the Amish, so I am very familiar! Thanks for sharing your idea and thoughts.
Love this look!!!!
What a treasure this journal is.Love the stitching everywhere and the variety of materials.Thank you for sharing.
It's beautiful, Nik, thank you for sharing your awesomeness!
Nik, I love the thoughtful way in which you create your journals. Beautiful.
Love this journal, Nik. I’m gonna have to look for your old packrat journal videos because I’m in love with this one. 🤗
I love how the cover is both rustic and delicate at the same time. And the shades of brown & autumn colors are divine! Love all the hand stitches, it just makes it feel even more vintage. I have missed the pack rat & collectors! Beautiful work Nik!!
I love all the stitching ,the whole journal is yummy! Thanks for the inspiration Nic. ❤️🥰💋🎄🇨🇦❤️

I'm a subscriber to The Graphic's Fairy website and their bundles are wonderful. Nik... this is your work at it's finest❣ I never tire of your wonderful journals... and your banter 😉
Just absolutely fabulous! I love all the texture and random graphics -- quite my style in decorating, be it a journal or my house! Graphics Fairy is the bomb!
Love this and the idea of this! It’s a great place to put all the random things we save just because they make us happy. Thanks for sharing.
Nik ... As Always your work is stunning ! So much detail .. and everything fits perfectly due to your expert eye at placement and choice of elements .. Absolutely LOVE your work . ..
The stitching here is giving me ideas, even though I haven't had a sewing machine in 17 years. It is a delightful piece.
Thanks!
Awesome! Thank you!
Love the journal, the texture is fabulous. I am a big fan of graphicsfairy and have used them for years. Glad you could create with them and show us even more of what could be done. Thanks for the share
Thanks for your kind words Deborah about Nik's journal and about our site!
Cool journal!! Love it!! You’re funny! 😂 love you too! (Something about the way you said”There’s a tutorial on how to print on..Ffaabric “, got me laughing!
Love it, love it ,love it. Great textural cover. Love the look of it too.
I really, really like your journal/book Nik. I especially like all the hand stitching and the different textures.
Your journals/books always spark my imagination. I can picture great, great Aunt Agatha's niece discovering it in a trunk in the attic thel when she's playing hide and seek with her pesky little brother.
Thanks for sharing your cool, amazing and inspirational journal/book.
LOVE all the different textures and stitching. Those images printed on muslin are FABULOUS!!! :-)
Beautiful.
Love this journal! This has to be one of my favorites.
Extraordinary! Delicious! I love it!! Thanks for your dedication
Nik! This is wonderful. Just love it!
That stitching is awesome! I haven't seen u do that! Nice touch!! Your work is always so incredible!! TFS
Love love love it! The textiles and stitching, fabulous!
Fabulous Nik...the muslin prints are beeeutiful!
It's a beauty, Nik.
Love the printing on the muslin! I stamp alot on muslin and printing is even better! Thanks for the flip through!
This is a true work of art! I'm a real newbie and gawking at everything! Is this a book that you would make for your self, or is it something you sell? Again, fabulous!!!
There's a mix, some of our Design Team sell their journals, others make them for personal use. Thanks for your comments!
What a fascinating book. Really beautiful.
Love love love the journal and the cover is gorgeous

This journal is awesome. You did an amazing job. Love all the stitching you did by hand.
Love The Graphics Fairy site. I get daily emails from y’all. New subbie to your UA-cam.
Amazing. It's really nice!
Love this one. Sometimes I don't want to follow a particular "theme". You really need to have a large "stash" to move in this direction.
That's for me! I have so much "paper and stuff".
Amazing ~~~~ love love this!!! ❤️🐞
I love these junk journals and I really want to make one but I don’t understand how they are to be used. I am an artist and a writer and when I think of a journal I think of something that I can write in and I don’t understand how I can journal in a junk journal. I have been thinking about this for months now too embarrassed to ask the question but I hope you’ll help me understand!🥰😬
Wow! 💫
Love love the idea
So pretty love it x
Exquisite

INTERESTING "CONCEPT"!
Love it so much :)
Your book is so beautiful! I love it so much, do you mind if I share your videos to other websites?
I want to learn how to make a journal like this!! It is amazing!!! Do you have a class for this one?
Is this all stitched by machine? Do you ever hand stitch?
💝
Spooky beutiful
This is so beautiful do you ever sell your work?
She has an etsy store (sometimes she also sells on ebay I think?) but you have to be very quick as there are only a few items each times and they're all unique. Hope for you you're in the US otherwise it will be even more difficult to be there on time!
Gorgeous 😍. Do you use original Edith Holden pages in your journals or do you scan and print them?
How did you print on fabric without it getting jammed in your printer?
Hi Nik where can I find diverse people ephemera? Everything since to be of one kind.
2 questions: 1, how do you get the tea stain paper so dark, it's frustrating to me. Do you have a video on it?
2, what do you do with junk journals when your thru producing them? I know you sell them but what does the buyer do with them? (That sounds judgemental. I don't mean it that way. ] are there videos of used journals?
do you still have the pack rat videos available?
What is the Graphics fairy membership all about?
