Honoring the Past through a Junk Journal! :) The Paper Outpost! :) This is a junk journal I made to house my grandmother's important papers covering her travel from Europe to America.

Pam..you are so lucky to have these things. I have no paper items. Nice of you to be the keeper of all things paper
Hmm, have you explored Ancestry.com yet? You may be able to make copies of lots of old papers related to you lineage! :)
What a wonderful journal to have Pam. If we could all have some bit of our grandmothers and grandfathers old things and pictures, maybe life would be a better place.
I agree wholeheartedly Denise :)!
Such a very special journal, Pam. It's beautiful in every single way. Your grandparents must have been very strong persons. Imagine crossing the Atlantic back then..... Not exactly a walk in the park. Fantastic that you got all these documents! How exciting it'll all be the day you get it translated!
I have not done a 'honoring journal' but similar in the form of a scrapbooking album. I had a three years younger brother that we tragically lost in summer 2014, leaving three sons behind. At this time the oldest was about to be 14 years, the middle son about to be 12 and the youngest one was 9 yrs. Thankfully I've always taken lots of photos. Started going through them all picking out the ones with any of the boys, and their father. Fortunately I've kept a diary since like 1980! So even the analogue pictures I could pinpoint to the correct date. I could tell what they got for birthday presents when they were like 1, 2, etc years old and what we ate!! Last summer the oldest one graduated, he's 19 yrs old now! As a present I gave him 2 full scrapbooking albums filled with pictures and journaling. I don't want my nephews to forget their father. Already has the albums ready for the middle son, he will graduate in June 2021. We are memory keepers, my dear friend! Hugs from Ditte
Dear Ditte! Oh my goodness, what a beautiful story anchored in such a deep loss of a loved one! I am very sorry for your loss. How incredibly special those albums must be to all of you! What a glorious gift from the heart to the family! I am sure they will be cherished forever! So meaningful! Many blessings to you sister across the sea :) Pam :)
Thank you for sharing. that was beautiful!
What a wonderful journal. Enjoyed the journey. Hope you get to have papers interpreted someday. Love your videos.
Thanks Carol! I will, its a mission now :)
so beautiful. what a novel and precious way to keep your ancesters memory. i wish i had more momentos of my ancesters. unfortunately not many items have survived the war in my country. i'm so glad and thankful you have showen us your journal.
Hi Tundra Maybell! Thanks kindly! :) Pam :) !!
Lovely, Pam. Smiles, Carol
Hi Carol Martine! Thanks dear heart! :)
Pam, I can't think of a better way to keep the papers we inherit from those we loved. My mother left a huge trove of papers, all of which I still have. It will be a gargantuan project to collect them all and give them a proper home, but it will be a labor of love. Thank you. ~ Lisa
Hi LB! One thing I can share is that now that the papers are in a journal I have looked at them so many more times than when they were in the box at the bottom of the closet ;) It has been fun to share with other family members too :)
What an awesome tribute to Your Grandparents! I have a 3 ring binder that my Uncle my Dad's brother gave me and it's my heritage. My GP's were from France,but first they imgrated to Canada, then to the USA. I have tons of paper work also (in a tote). What an inspiration Pam to make a Journal for the paper work. TFS!!!!! Judyxx
Hi ALil'BitShabby Ju Bri! So happy to hear this! TFW! :) Pam :) !!
Wow Pam. What a treasure to have! All those papers and they are about your family. Hope you can get them translated. That would be fabulous!!
Hi Liz! Thanks and yes that is my next goal :)
That was lovely to watch. I grew up with such a dysfunctional family that I never had a relationship with grandmother's or grandfathers. I didn't even know who my biological dad was until May of last year. I went from being an only child to having 4 half sisters and a half brother. Yay for Ancestry.com. it has been such a delightful surprise. I look forward to watching many more of your videos. 🦋
That is such a heart warming story! Thanks for sharing with us! :)
This is great. Gave me a wonderful idea about how to use my grandparents old papers. My grandpa saved a lot! I got to be the one to get the papers out of his trunk.
What a fun exploration of your history! :)
Oh my gosh!!!! This journal is the most beautiful memory book of days gone by- of basically your heritage- that I have EVER seen in my life. It is truly THE ultimate heirloom ever! To say that you did an outstanding job on this journal is the understatement of a lifetime. I’m serious! It had to be divinely inspired! Thank you for sharing!!!
Hi Patty Miles! Thanks! I am so happy you are here! :) Pam :) !!
I absolutely loved watching this vlog. Thank you for sharing.
Hi Lisa Lowe!, Happy to share! :) Pam :) !!
What a truly beautiful journal you have so lovingly made. I wish so much that I had a family history I could document like this, but it was an honour to see what you have created in memory of your grandparents. Thank you for sharing it.
Hi Lorraine Newman!, Happy to share! :) Pam :) !!
This is a great way to preserve family history. I have a few papers that my mom saved that pertained to me but very little of just her or my dad. I do have photos that need a home. Yours has triggered some ideas for a journal for this. TFS Pam!
Hi Beverly Stout! I love hearing this!! :) Pam :) !!
Lovely! This year I gave my daughter her holiday gifts, not necessarily journal related, wrapped in vintage linen. One was a napkin very similar to yours! I also gave all the young woman who attended her bridal shower vintage hankies as favors. I could only wish my family had preserved some of their papers. Sometimes I think my fascination with all of the above, old photos and vintage ephemera in general is precisely because I’m trying to fill in the blanks of my own history. Beautiful, thanks for sharing.
Hi :) I think its natural to be curious about one's past and what life may have been like for our relatives :) Keep looking under all stones, you may find some treasures yet :)
I so empathise with this. How wonderful it would be to have family heirlooms of our own to treasure. We'll have to make do with honouring the past belongings of others I guess. xxx
Thankyou for sharing this, it's beautiful! Also I love the idea of making a journal in memory of a loved one past. In my case if I made one it would be my great Aunty Margaret!
Hi Julie Parker! Fantastic idea! I love it!!! Thanks so much for sharing! :) Pam :) !!
What a beautiful tribute to your grandparents! I have a boxful of papers and letters, passports, rationcards from WW2, drivers licences, all kind of things from my parents, who both passed away recently. Now I know what to do with it all. Thankyou!
This is so lovely to find from a love one. Today I found pictures of my parents when they were young adults. I will look for more things I have placed somewhere..
Such wonderful finds Judy! :)
ABSOLUTLEY WONDERFUL* MY GRANDPARENTS CAME FROM HUNGARIAN/AUSTRIAN ASSENT. SAILED TO ELLIS ISLAND... INTERESTING FACTS THAT I HAVE AND AM GOING TO MAKE A JOURNAL WHICH AT THIS TIME I KEEP ALL THE EPHEMERA IN A VINTAGE SUITCASE..... NOT ANY MORE. THANK YOU FOR SHARING* LOVE FROM IDAHO*
Hi Julie Marie! You have warmed my heart with your beautiful words! :) Pam :) !!
Thank you for sharing your family with me, I am honored. I wish you and yours a very merry Christmas and a happy new year! May God watch over you always.
Thank you kindly Georgie! Its always such a pleasure to hear form you! God bless you and yours! :)
That’s a lovely journal and such a good idea! Thank you for sharing.
Hi Donna Seeton! You are my angel! Thanks kindly! :) Pam :) !!
I absolutely love this idea! We have hundreds of old black and white photos of family and friends.....people i don't know who they are. My mom is 90 and still has a good memory for the past. I am having her to write down who these people are and just a little about them.
I want to create a journal....or journals....to preserve these.
Thanks for sharing your precious treasure.
Wonderful ideas!! My cousins have most of the family history. I was fortunate enough to get my grandmother's paperwork from whence she came to this country from Spain via Cuba. I really don't have a home where I can keep things properly so I plan to copy all the paperwork and give the original ones to my daughter. but I would like to make a journal like this with the copies for myself and then send some of the other copies in a journal to my cousin's. You've set so many ideas running through my head now thank you for this inspiration! 🎅🎄🤶🌲⛄🦌
Hi Lala Gamma! You make my heart sing! :) Pam :) !!
Thank you so much for sharing!!! I absolutely love making journals, but I am just not a journaler. I do however have lots of boxes of cards and letters and household ledgers. And one very important stack of love letters that my father wrote. If I can sneak them out of her house, I now know what my mom's next gift will be! Thank you for the inspiration!!!
Hi Makes Me Happy Crafts! I love hearing this!! :) Pam :) !!
So special. What a treasure trove of family info you have! I'm coming to Junk Journals late, but I have always loved to research my family and see the old documents that are online. I don't have many documents, but I sure can appreciate the joy and blessing it would be to craft this special book.
You can see how precious the journal is to you in the tone of your voice and in the way your handling the pages. Thank you for sharing 👍🏻👩🏻🎨
Hi renigrunhut! You make my heart sing! :) Pam :) !!
Thank you for sharing your family with us! I love family histories and you’ve found such a wonderful way to keep the memories of your grandparents together and safe!
Lovely journal! The love you have for them shines through!
Hi Theresa Suttle! Thanks bunches! :) Pam :) !!
A GEM! Translating would be so interesting. Happy New Year Pam.
Thanks so much and happy New Year Brenda! :)
That was perfect .Thank you . I have my Fathers Army papers and pictures. You've given me courage to finally tackle them lol ..I've been thinking about it fora long time..Thank you again
Hi Phyllis! Its going to feel so good! :) Plus its a great way to show others when they come over! :)
Thank you for Sharing Pam! What a Beautiful Tribute to your Grandparents!
Thanks, it really helped me feel more connected with them! :)
What a loving thing to do. This is a beautiful journal. I did somewhat the same thing with my old family papers. Thank you so much for sharing!
Hi June Kessler! Many blessings to you! :)
This so awesome TFS ♥️
Hi CRAFTieJjNEWton! Happy you like it! :) Pam :) !!
What a precious memory!! Beautiful as always Pam!
Oh wow,what a treasure! This is the most valuable journal! So glad I stumbled across this video of yours,Pam!
Such a lovely remembrance of your grandparents. ❤ you Pam! Tyfs!
Thanks Barbara! :)
How wonderful! The best kind of junk journal, with personal ephemera! Great way to keep the memories from our loved ones. Thank you for sharing!
Hi Amy Thomas! Thanks and big hugs to you! :) Pam :) !!
Oh, Pam❤This is exactly what I want to do with my Grandma Grace's things to honor her for my Dad.
I also want to make Special Journals for my kids' Grandparents to write to their grandchildren--they hold a wealth of information from days gone by. Treasures lost when they pass away if not written down somewhere. Thank you for inspiring me to do this💞🤗
That’s beautiful my grandparents died when my mom was a child and when I was a baby our home burned down so I don’t have gorgeous moments like yours. You are so so lucky. Pam, put that in a fireproof safe. That is precious or somewhere you can grab on the way out if there was a fire. I think thst is just amazing that you have that! Good for you!
Thanks Vickie, I think about folks who don't have the hard copy papers and I think about ways they could maybe make a journal to honor a family member. Maybe one could make a journal of memories of that person using pictures from magazines or words from a book. Maybe poems could be added ( self written or "borrowed"). Maybe an art journal of feelings and emotions could be made or drawings or collage to express things. Maybe we don't actually need the old papers. Maybe we can still pay tribute to those special and dear to us. The journal world is our oyster to create something from nothing...so let's do this! :)
What a wonderful journal you’ve made to honor your grandparents. I loved seeing it. You’re very fortunate to have such treasures. Thank you for sharing a little piece of your family with us. ❤️
Hi Lisa Kerley! Many blessings to you! :)
@@ThePaperOutpost And the same to you, Pam!
So Powerful, Beautiful Treasures. Keepsakes To Share With Future Generations...
Hi darlene roach! Thanks and big hugs to you! :) Pam :) !!
A beautiful way to honor your grandparents. You've inspired me to try something similar this coming year. An idea to have your treasures translated is to visit a family history center, if there is one near you. I'm seeking help through them to translate some Norwegian documents for me.
Hi Victoria Stevens! Fantastic idea! I love it!!! Thanks so much for sharing! :) Pam :) !!
This is absolutely beautiful! What a lovely way to honor Family. 🌞
Hi Chamel Renee! Thanks bunches! :) Pam :) !!
What a wonderful tribute to your Grandparents. I love their story. I love listening to older people's journeys.
I spent my Nursing Career caring for the elderly.....so many stories of love. Thanks for sharing your family's. Merry Christmas.
Thanks kindly and Merry Christmas! :)
That is such a sweet journal to keep of your loved ones, so thoughtful.
Hi Lynne Hughes! Thanks kindly! :) Pam :) !!
How beautiful to be able to honour your grandparents in that way! Such a treasure. I hope to do one for my mom one day, its an emotional journey for sure thank you so much for showing this special journal ❤️🌹
Hi Brenda Clark! I love hearing this!! :) Pam :) !!
Beautiful Pam thankyou so much for sharing xx
Just lovely to hold your memories awww
Your reminiscing about your grandma reminded me of mine. It's my plan to do a book like that. Thanks for the inspiration. 💞 it's a lovely book. A treasure forever.
Hi Eva Bradford! Thanks so much! :) Pam :) !!
I’m sure your grandparents would be pleased to know you’ve done this. It’s such a great idea, and it’s lovely that you have these papers. Happy Christmas to you and your family! Xx it’s great that you also have a document of your journal making!
It felt like the right thing to do with all these memories and I think Grandma would have liked it! Wish I could still ask her to tell me more stories :) Happy Christmas Cheryl! :)
Nice tribute to your grandparents,great idea to store old papers and pictures from family
Hi Mary Regan! Thanks and big hugs to you! :) Pam :) !!
What a great idea, how special to have all the papers from your nana and grandad, i have a few i have gotten from Ancestry now i know how i can store all mine. :) I wish i had of been given my nana and grandads papers.
Beautiful keepsake. Makes me want to round up all the papers from my family and preserve them for my granddaughter. Thanks for sharing your memories with us.
Hi Lynn Harrell! Brilliant idea! :) !!
What a great idea! This year I inherited bins full of pictures , ancient deeds and papers, also doilies and linens. I hated to get rid of any, now I know what to do with them. Thank you!
Hi Debby Young! I am excited for you! :) Pam :) !!
I hope you have a wonderful Christmas Pam with your loved ones. You are so fortunate to have all those treasured memories, and it's great that you honored your grandparents in this way. xo
Thanks kindly Caroline and Merry Christmas! :)
Such a thoughtful journal. Lovely.
Absolutely Luv this Pam! I actually made a JJournal to house my familys papers and pictures i could find. My cousin brought from Maryland all the papers her mother had so we had the same grandparents. From Italy they came. This is so awesome! Thank you for showing us how beautiful it is! 💜 Charito
Love this! I'm in the process of going through my mother's papers and photos. It is a labor of love, for sure! You have created such a wonderful keepsake here. Thanks for sharing!
What a lovely way to honor your grandparents!
Thanks kindly Barbara! :)
@@ThePaperOutpost I really miss seeing you Pam! I know its the holidays, but just saying!
@@ThePaperOutpost you are so welcome!
Thanks for sharing and the inspiration. I love old papers.
Oh gosh me too Linda! :)
Lovely journal Pam! Wonderful idea! My grandparents came from Italy. Their papers are all in Italian. Right now they are stored in my mother’s cedar chest, which was given to her when she was a girl by my grandmother. I never knew my grandparents, they passed away before I was born. My mother was almost 92 when she passed away. The cedar chest is about 84 years old, itself. This is a wonderful idea for their old papers...
The cedar chest is at my sons, because we were having problems with flooding from burst water heaters in my building... so I evacuated the cedar chest for safekeeping.
Well, I certainly didn’t mean to write a dissertation here...
Thanks so much for sharing your lovely journal!
Hugs Marsha
I loved hearing your story Marsha! It makes everything so real! Real people! Real stories! Real lives! :) Thanks so much for sharing! :)
The Paper Outpost Awww... very gracious of you, Pam! Happy New Year!
Such a beautiful journal you made in honor of your grandparents. Thanks for sharing with us!
Hi Caders 08! Thanks dear heart! :)
What a beautiful way to honor your grandparents! ♥ Love the bathing suit! And the hanky tucking...my grandma did that too. Love this journal. So special!
Hi Home With Feisty! So happy to hear this! TFW! :) Pam :) !!
Such a wonderful idea!
Beautiful memory keeper 💕🌸
Thank you! 😊
Beautiful memory journal, what a lovely way to keep things safe xx
Thanks Carol! It was a joy to make :)
This is just beautiful!! You made a good point at why our grandparents always wrote so tiny!!! Lol I love this! Beautiful memories!!
Hi Jen’s Junk! You are the peaches in my cream! :) Pam :) !!
I recently started going through all those boxes of papers that I’ve stored for a while and I found some amazing things from my grandparents and other family including photos and letters. My family came to this country from Cuba and there is even some amazing Cuban memorabilia I found. I’m going to make something exactly like this. Thank you for sharing.
That is awesome Lourdes!
Thank you for sharing this amazing treasure book you created. It is truly a tribute to your lovely family. Just like you said I also have a box filled with old papers and pictures. And they too mean a lot to me. Looking at them is bringing my dear family close again! Wishing you a very warm and blessed Christmas!
Hi Tina H! Thanks so much! Merry Christmas! :) Pam :) !!
So precious and lovely! What a wonderful way to honor your family. Best wishes on solving the mystery of the written words! ❤❤❤😊😊❤😊
Thanks Jackie!! I will need it!
Pam, such a wonderful way to memorialize your grandparents! Love it! TFS the inspiration and creativity! Merry Christmas!
Hello dearest Gail! A big Merry Christmas to you!! :)
Firstly.....sending you Aussie Christmas Greetings.... boy am I looking forward to getting back home and have a dig in my trunk and gathering my parents momentous it will have all bits and pieces of their migration to Australia many yrs ago ....and what a momentous way of holding it ALL in a journal to pass on to the next generation instead of a box which would just be taken away cause it's just stuff. Your flip through of your grandparents gave me goose bumps as I could see what I could do with my parents papers and YES also passports and plane tickets ...so with that I wish you Pam A VERY PROSPEROUS 2020 🙏❤🎄
Totally moving Christa! Thank you! :) Happy New Year! :)
THIS WAS SO SWEET-LOVE YOUR KEEPSAKE-TFS-HUGS/BLESSINGS
Thanks so much Karen :) Many blessings! :)
Oh my goodness...lovey too see you put the treasured documents in an extra special journal keepsake! I was so shocked to hear your grandparents came to Canada ( big country). But one of the mementos was from Kmart Welland, Ontario. Of all places! That’s 10 minutes from where I live! Imagine that! My goodness gracious 💕🇨🇦. My parents emigrated from England in 1965, and I’ve been thinking of doing a journal for me first..of my precious memories then do something lovely for my Mom. Mom has great memories of her past, but short-term difficulties. So a journal, I think might be something she could look at & enjoy in the present. Thank you so much for sharing, Pam. I’m so glad to have found your channel. 💕
Oh wow! Yes my grandparents lived in Welland and I grew up in St. Catharines! Small and cozy world for sure! I loved hearing this! :) That sounds like a very beautiful and meaningful project! :)
Such a wonderful idea. Thank you for sharing!
Hi Marilyn Torsch! Thanks and big hugs to you! :) Pam :) !!
What a lovely idea!!!! Thank you!
Hi Simone BHP! You are so sweet! :) Thank you! :)
So special and wonderful. I do have ephemora from my maternal grandmother and my mom. It's all scattered about.....so.....yeah.....this is a great idea for me! Thanks for showing!!!!!
Hi Paperlover123! Happy you like it! :) Pam :) !!
Thanks for sharing this family journal. I am definitely adding this to my list of journals to make! Beautiful work!
Hi Bernice Chiniborch! I am all sunshine and roses because of you! :) Pam :) !!
The Paper Outpost glad my comment made you smile!
By far one of the coolest, sweetest videos you have ever done. How fortunate you are to be able to place such precious memories in book you made. The book and the sentiment are beautiful. Thank you for sharing this with us. Happy Holidays, Pam! You're awesome!
Always a joy to hear from you Jobeth! Happy holidays! :)
Priceless.
Hi Valerie B! Thanks and big hugs to you! :) Pam :) !!
Thank you for showing this wonderful journal of your grandparents. I truly enjoyed this video. Merry Christmas!
Hi ARTISTIC CRAFTS- Tell the story! Thanks so much and Merry Christmas! :) Pam :) !!
You certainly have a lot of papers from them. I have a family history from 1860 when one branch came from Germany. But I don't have any actual papers. So special.
Hi Janet, nice lineage! Maybe you could find some papers on ancestry.com :)
This so special
What a Loving thing to do, it really gives me ideas. Thank you so much for sharing. Lots of love from Sweden 🙋
Hi Lillemor Lagergren! Happy you like it! :) Pam :) !!
What a wonderful way to keep those treasured memories of family members who have since passed....all in one beautiful journal. Love it! You’ve really got my mind thinking, Pam (& that can be a terrifying thought...LOL). Thanks for the inspiration! Hugs, Sharron💗
LOL, I know the feeling! ;)
so special .... thanks for sharing
Hi Cat's Meow! Thanks kindly! :) Pam :) !!
such a beautiful tribute to your Grandmom and Grandpa :) I hope you find your translator :) Love that book :)
OMG I've been compiling my grandparents papers with the intent to make a journal to pass on to my daughter. My maternal grandparents were also from Hungary, they settled in West Virginia & my grandfather worked in the coal mines. They were called gypsys because they would move often to where there was coal to be mined. My fraternal grandparents came from 🇮🇹 Italy. Thanks for sharing, love meeting someone whose.Hungarian. 💖💖💖
Hello fellow Hungarian! :)
So loved this post ♥️
I totally enjoyed this video...Both of my grandmothers died before my parents were married but I had a very nice step-grandmother who I loved dearly. I was maybe close to 10 when she died. My grandfathers were real characters too. Now I must search...thinking maybe I could go to the courthouse to see if I could get a copy of my parents marriage license....Thank You So Much!!! This book is amazing...
Hi Georgia Dobberteen! Brilliant idea! :) !!
Merry CHRISTMAS Pam! I hope you have a blessed beautiful day. Love you girl!
Merry Christmas Vickie!! ) Happy day to you!
It is so cool that you are lucky enough to have these old documents! Love how they are in a journal rather than a scrapbook. I hope your papers are acid free tho so the old papers won't break down any more.
Great point Cass! At least I think they are better off than in the dusty damp basement from which they came :)
@@ThePaperOutpost you are certainly right about that!
Thank you so much for sharing this with us. What a treasure it is. Merry Christmas to you and yours.
You are so welcome Beverly! Merry Christmas to all! :)
Wow, love it! Thanks for sharing.
Hi Lynne Schipp! You are more than welcome! Sincerely, Pam :) !!
Very nicely done. I have so many of grandparent/parent papers so this inspires.
Happy to hear this!
I love this journal... I have some old family items and I will start my own” family history journal!!
Thank you for sharing!! 💜💕

Thanks so much Debbie! Merry Christmas and Happy New year to you too! :)
I have enjoyed your tutorial videos since I found you a couple months back. Thank you for your sharing spirit. This here is the most personal, and heartfelt of your journal shares. I loved it. You've inspired me to go through my mom's boxes that are tucked away for 21 years now. Merry Christmas to you and your family. 😊🎨💞
Hi Elizabeth! I am very excited for you! I am sure you will find many treasures in those boxes! :)
Pam what a beautiful journal! You are truly honoring your grandparents and your heritage. A true treasure
Thank you so much for sharing. 💝
The gift journal am working on has copies of old photos & significance. Am getting so many ideas and learning from you. Thank you! 🎁
Merry Christmas!! 🎄
Hi D Love of hounds! Thanks and big hugs to you! :) Pam :) !!
Such a lovely way to remember and journal about your ancestry. Your grandparents would be so happy to know how much they meant to you that you kept all their letters and mementos and made a beautiful journal to keep it all in.
Hi Kiki T! Thanks kindly! :) Pam :) !!
