That you, thank you, thank you! Bringing the journals back to the ground with basics. That's what is the most fun. We don't need all those digitals and new foil machines, sticker creators, cutters, etc. It's all become so commercialized, that I feel sorry for the new beginners. No wonder they're confused. I don't enjoy watching anymore. So, KUDOS to you for recognizing what's really fun and important to know! ❤
Oh dearest Margreth, this was a perfect lesson for those of us who fight perfectionism and who constantly see what we don’t have instead of everything that we do have! You are such an inspiration and a fantastic teacher! I feel like I have a friend in the Netherlands! Love from Shawn/Utah/USA❤
Hi Margreth 😁! This beginner tutorial is right up my street! I have been wanting to do a junk journal but keeping it to the minimum of techniques for my first try…just to get my feet wet so to speak instead of going for a plunge into the ocean 😂😂😂! Your instructions were wonderful on ideas for using for pages and making embellishments and very fun! I have made buttons before with collage medium and napkins just like you shared and they are so pretty and fun. Thanks so much and I know there are many of us that really needed this kind of help. Take care and Hugs!! 🥰
This is such a fun journal! It is adorable and eclectic. Yes, always love to watch you create fantastic ephemera. So nice to see a simple junk journal made with stuff around the house. There isn’t anything that you make that doesn’t come loaded with inspiration! Hugs ❤️🤗
I have a ton of stuff that I have collected over the years! I am a person, that has to match colours and things need to be themed! BUT I am going to clear out my stash and just put things together!
A few months ago I was cleaning out my desk and found a box of notecards with beautiful art on the front. Since they'd been there for years it was obvious that I was never going to use them. I did exactly what you did here and turned them into little notebooks to give to my friends using random leftovers of scrapbook paper as the pages. I had never done the pamphlet stitch binding and was scared to death - but when I got done with the first one I thought "Well, THAT was easier than I thought." And since the notecards came with envelopes, I could package each as a little gift in its own envelope. They were a hit. I have lots and lots of pretty papers and embellishments from my cardmaking, but these little "leftover" books are one of my favorite things.
Margareth, if I had seen a video like this one when I was starting out, I could have saved myself a bunch of money!! THANK YOU for breaking it all down to 5 simple steps!! This will be So helpful for beginners!! You are a blessing!!
Stick notes plus some are colored Pen- to doodle with Wax paper you cook with Parchment paper Old drapes Sheets that don’t fit your bed Check your sewing box Colored thread Seem binding Patches to fix pants Colored pencils Gell pens Mail of all kinds Lunch sacks
Lovely journal! I made my first journal but I was disappointed about how it turned out. The signature was plain! I used a lot of coffee dyed paper. I need to go through my stuff and see what I can make. God bless
If you have a printer and you want pretty papers, there are all kinds of digital papers on Ko-fi that are free or very cheap. Easy peasy, lemon squeezy. Your thrift stores and charity shop have tons of wonderful books for cheap. My county library has a used book store inside the library and the books are very cheap or better yet, sometimes free. A dollar can buy you a cool book to get started.
Yes make ephemera for this journal... I started using both Bear glue and AGG as they a bit different but Bear is a nice glue for moving stuff around... thx doe a ding as I now have large bottles of both... ahhh what a hobby....! Made 2 XXL journals from Amazon packing. It's like a monster. Warmest.
Margreth, you are such a gem! Junk journaling is so much easier than we think when it’s new to us! It took me awhile to actually make a journal. I made lots of other things for the journals but the first step is always the most difficult to start. Thanks for sharing!
The beautiful thing about Junk Journal is that there are no mistakes! Just happy accidents and everything can be fixed anyway… you just need to dare to open the door to your creativity!!! Love the video, very fresh!
Yes please to more budget videos! I love printables and use tons of them, but I like really junky journals and run out of ideas. I learned how to make altered envelopes from you and they are some of my favorite pieces to add to my journals.
I am very much a newbie, with 2 very simple journals under my belt. With both, sewing in the signature didn't go so well, so thank you so much for the idea with the 'clamping'...duh! Also, haven't made a closure yet, because they all seemed to require tools I don't have. Buttons and elastic - I can do that! Also thank you for encouraging us to truly use what we have, and what might otherwise be discarded. I am very much looking forward to the ephemera-making. Will try the journal from the card, but would also like to see one made from something more substantial, like some cardboard packaging...unless you have already done that? This is my first comment, and I just subscribed. I have watched a number of your videos before, and the results are always beautiful, but I so appreciate the pared-down approach...truly anyone should feel like they can give this one a try! Many thanks, Claudia from Oregon (originally, Berlin)
you never cease to amaze me with your imagination I just love this, and I would never have thought of using teabag packaging. I would never have used a greeting card neither. :) I cant wait for the next instalment.
How do I begin, I'm so confused, insecure when it comes to JJs. I began with Mixed Media which was difficult in the beginning, but not like this. I'm either too old lol, to learn all the things in this theme, or I don't trust myself & that scares me. I have a studio filled with items/junk & a computer with digital kits. What/how should I use as cover, how do I make the signatures? Is that just plain paper that I put all the clusters/ephemera etc that you're doing & saving? My brain is so full, so I don't know where to begin. I began making 1 - gluing paper together into a cover - (Watched Pink Monarch August easy journal) - not done yet. I like watch your videos, waiting for me to dare & to get some mojo. Easier to learn & dare when I was younger. Thanx Margareth for sharing❤ - appreciate you so much! Lia/Sweden
Just try, and if it goes wrong you can try again, everyone learns from doing things wrong...why try if everything is always perfect, that,s not fun, its fun when its original and yours..I,m also starting to learn and have no problem throwing away some little things and trying with others.😘good luck and enjoy without presure.❤
What piligarcia4771 just told, I only want to emphasize: just start and try! I can understand you very well as I felt the same way at the beginning. I saw a lot of videos about the topic and didn't dare to start. But one day I did and it was such a wonderful feeling, when I had my first journal in my hands. It was not perfect, by far not. 😅 But it was mine. Selfmade by me. And I am 50, so not a young girl anymore either. Just try! And don't be too critical. You'll have fun, believe me.
Hi Lia, I'm (almost 66) not a advanced crafter at all! ... But I have fun! The BEST tip I've ever read: "TRUST THE JOURNEY"! It will bring you somewhere and your inner "what-so-ever" tells you what to do next. And when you just have sewn(?) in your first signature you will be so proud of you. Now I use my first JJ for "learn from the mistakes/mishaps" (I write down what went wrong - with an arrow pionting to the mistake). I just startet my first fabric covered cover (from a baking pan box) - and its looking good so far ;-) All the best Claudia from Germany 😉
If you don't have jewelry, you can make beads from any scrapbook paper. All you need is paper, glue, scissors, and anything tiny like the handle of a tiny paint brush. Just look it up on tube on how to do it. It's so easy and it's fun.
ha, wat leuk weer! echt junk journalen...ja daar begint het mee en dan ga je op zoek in je huis , en bij de buren...en dan verzamelen. en je gooit haast geen papier meer wegen je kunt alles gebruiken .zo leuk dit!dus ik zou je aanraden om juist ook te laten zien wat voor nep inkt je kunt gebruiken , wat voor hardware je uit je keukenla en naaikist kan gebruiken. en wat plaatjes uit boeken en tijdschriften kunt gebruiken en oude postzegels en zo...ach er is zoveel mogelijk! dank je wel weer voor dit echte ouderwetse junkjournalen...🤗😘😊
Oh fabulous, exactly what I am after… I’d love to see the ephemera making and an inexpensive way of decorating. Including alternative inking! Thank you for always making me smile
Thank you! This is so wonderfully inspirational! I’ve been a card and ATC maker for years and have lots of goodies but have yet to make a journal of any kind. I love this because it makes it cheap, everybody loves a deal and it’s RRR friendly which is a bonus. Also because it’s beginner friendly it makes it a lot less intimidating which is a big thing for me and I know many crafters feel the same. Yes ephemera, please. There are a lot of sites that offer free images so if you have a colour printer ( unfortunately I no longer do) and copy paper you can make tons of it! I don’t know if this is allowed here but the graphics fairy has thousands of free vintage images!
Wouldn't it be funny if the sender told the birthday girl what address they sent the card... and the recipient arrived at your address to collect it... Hopefully both of you would have a new friend, AND your newest friend would have a wonderful journal! 🤗💕
I love all your videos, you explain everything so well and your humor always brightens my day. Would love to see a video on how to make ephemera for this journal.
I am a JJ virgin. Watched a gazillion videos on how to but never made one. I did make a Gretchen, but that was basically copying your videos. When you made Victoria, I bought a reduced cushion cover, and finally, 4 weeks ago I made a lovely JJ cover using an Amazon envelope and the cushion cover material. So far, so good. The problem is that every time you post a new project I want to do that one! 😊😂 So I've done step 2 of this project...I need to go gathering. TFS❤
Your timing could not have been any more perfect! Could you or one of your beloved followers point me in the direction of one of your videos that covers fabric covering a cover? That's a lot of covers isn't it!😂❤❤❤-Letha
I loved this. I've been lurking and binge watching for months but haven't yet attempted a journal but having watched this I actually feel that I could and that I want to. What could possibly go wrong? As Margreth says, it's only paper. And I actually have quite a good stock, thanks to Margreths generous freebies. I really need help with the decorating though. I don't feel I have "an eye" for it or any natural talent. I copy a lot. Thanks for a great tutorial.
Another thing I do is flip thru magazines for pictures but also ads make neat labels and I cut out words that I like to glue on the page or ephemera. Dry tea bags and Empty and open up then they can be used to cover white pages instead of coffee dying. Just a thought.
Im at a point where friends look at things and say, wonder if Laurel could use it😂 I always make sure how their treasure has been incorporated in something.
This was the best just the best , im going to do a smaler skrapy skrapbook tomorrow a simpel one so i have a bock to try my ides in beror the go in a " real book " :) Thank you
Dear Margreth, can you make something with wallpaper in your next projects, please? And tell us, which glue you use when you work with wallpaper? Thank you very much in advance.❤
I'm not allowed to use the crinkly packing paper. My cat has claimed that material. And he pulls it out wherever I put it. Even if I put it in a drawer. He waits for me to open the drawer then jumps right in. He's in charge of that material.
Good afternoon Margrethe, always happy to see your projects. Always fun and great instructions. I've been crafting for years. The 2 journals i want to make are Tim Holtz and a coffee journal. Have all my supplies, go to go and found out i have stage 4 cancer. So it's not happening anytime soon. In bed mostly. Very much enjoying you create . Thank you. Big hugs from Phyllis from New Jersey. 😊.
The biggest problem that I have after assembling my journal is how to fill the pages aka decorating. I do have the supplies but not always the creativity. Can you help?
A lot of people don't think about making their own pattern paper by using stamps and inks on junk paper. You don't need to buy pattern paper. Make your own!
Late QUESTION: How do you make those little ones - look like matchsticks - they are so incredibly cute & can be used for different things, think someone made a pocket in one Anyone that understands what I’m trying to explain? - don’t know what you call them 🤷♀️
@@SevenplazaCreative Can I explain in Swedish - lol I don’t know the name in English but in Swedish we call them ”Tändsticksplån” ~ flat matches that sticks together one row of ten in the front, ten in the back. They are in a small paper pocket. Flip it open & close it behind the front where you light the match. That sounds crazy 😜 I can’t explain it, like a picture can 🙄😉🤣
That you, thank you, thank you!

~ flat matches that sticks together one row of ten in the front, ten in the back. They are in a small paper pocket. Flip it open & close it behind the front where you light the match. That sounds crazy 😜 I can’t explain it, like a picture can 🙄😉🤣
It’s okay if you prefer Art over Bart - I keep Bart quite busy!! 😀
