I love your tutorials, too. I take a picture on my phone of your wonderful instructions and then when I get them developed, I put them in a journal I have for future use. Thank you so much for taking the time to show us every step. I think while it is still winter, I will take the time to do lots of ephemera ahead of time so it does make it easier when filling up the journals. I am also inspired in taking the time to sew, too. It makes the pages and tags so much prettier. Keep up the great work you do. I am one who cant come up with the ideas, but I can sure try with your help to try doing them.
Thank you so much Madilyn :)
I'm a newbie to your channel. I didnt know what a junk journal was. I'm really liking it. Im.thinking of trying this. Tfs jen in south Dakota.
Thank you so much Jennifer. I'm so glad we have a new member in the junk journaling world! Please have a go at making one. I hope you find as much joy in this craft as I have. Good luck :)
I think this is the best step by step JJ making process on yt!!! X
You have the magic touch Natasha. ❤❤
I simply love your video. It’s great to show steps too cuz sometimes your creative brain goes a mile a minute and don’t know where or how to get started. Thank you Nat. Your are Marvelous Darling!,,, lov always. Lin
Thank you so much Lin!!
I just want you to know that you are fabulous at explaining in detail each step in the process. I love your channel, thank you!🙂
Thank you so much!
Thank you so much. I´m from Brazil. There are no videos here that teach Junk Journal. I love your videos. They help me a lot. God bless you.
Oh I'm so glad!! Thank you!!!
It is very nice you do the busy work off camera and then go through explaining what you did! 🙋♀️👍
Thank you Vonnie :)
Good instruction, great to see written instructions plus the demo.
Thk u so much Natasa! I was feeling overwhelmed... Surrounded by paper, glue, cards etc.. Wondering.. Where do I begin?! And no RyanO'Neal to come to my rescue either! And voila! There you appear.. My fairy godmother with this magical step by step video! Grateful thx.!
Thank you so much! I'm so glad this video came at the right time. We all go through the same struggles, me included, which is why I made this video. I get you hehe
Perfect! Thank you Natasha...🤗
Thank you so very much for creating this video! I enjoy your thoughtful process and organization. You are a treasure!
Thank you so much!
Thank you so much Natasa. I agree with the other comments, the best video I have seen on getting started and the process, so simple. I am a beginner and this will be a tremendous help. I won't need to overthink things from now on. All the best to you in these trying times.
Thank you so much Evelyn. Good luck with your project. And please take care :) Stay safe
I sometimes have a firm measurement on the cover (when pre existing), sometimes a decided measurement on the papers for the signature, as when I want all letter size folded in half. That determines which I do first.
I love this tutorial, and it is so carefully and clearly presented! I love the cute little journal that you made!
Thank you so much for this step-by-step JJ video! It's very helpful and I will your helpful suggestions. Your videos are always so well planned and structured, I like it a lot! For me, the timing is perfect alsoю Цe will be doing 10 Books in our "Discovery Club" with 10 kids in a Church. I will do my prototype this week and think about how to simplify the process for 7-12 years old. Hopefully, they will be able to succeed. It is my first time as a teacher for kids, so I am a little bit worrying. We will try to keep choices to the minimum and steps as simple as possible. Hugs from Kazakhstan!
Good luck Julia! The kids will LOVE it, and you will do great :)
Thanks. This makes so much sense. Ending one huge apartment project before I pull out my stash (many years' worth) and GO. Bet I'll come back to this as I start.
Oh my!! So much fun in store for you! Lost of crafting and creating 😊
@@TreasureBooks I get to call it art therapy for pain. Yay!
Very helpful, I’ll be working on my first journal! Thank you so much for spending your time and guidance!🙏🏻
Your tutorials are the best!
thanks for this. up until now i have painted/embellished pages before sewing them in as i thought it made sense. however after watching this it is clear that it is much better to sew them in first, with a few exceptions xxx
This is wonderful, it takes out all the guess work of what goes first and the worry of missing a step and ending up disappointed. Thanks so much for sharing!
My pleasure! Thank you :)
OMG! This is exactly what I needed. After 2 days of binging every video I could find I found you! :-) I'm so thankful that I now have steps to follow and this big magical journey can be put to life for me. :-) thank you! Thank you! Thank you! You are absolutely a treasure. 💜
So glad! Have lots of fun!!!
I love watch your vídeo, it's like a terapy to me, thanks a kot, God bless you
Wonderfully helpful and informative. Thanks for your genius.
Cool instructions....some I knew and some make more sense than the way I was doing it...thank you for sharing......😻
Thank you so much for this information and step-by-step tutorial. It makes it much easier for me now.
Hi Natasa ❤️
Thanks for this sequence of events for making a junk journal.
Very helpful. And very much appreciated.😘🤩
Now I can proceed to make my own with total (or almost) confidence.
This video is an invaluable resource. I've saved it to watch over and over again.🥰
Thanks for breaking it down to the basics.
Thank you so much Darnelle!! You can do it :)
I have been watching your UA-cam channel for several weeks now. I have watched other channels but yours is my favorite. I love your style and casual approach yet you are very detailed. I have created a few pieces, not journals per se. I found some of my mothers old pictures and included were the old cardboard frames that the photographers used to display the photos. I still have a way to go but I have to say with your help they didn't come out awful! Thank you so much for your wonderful videos and your style. You're terrific! Thanks.
I wanted to say thank you for your great videos as they have inspired me to make my first book! It's been great to see how easy this can be and that I need to stop over thinking, get out of fear and just do it. I have always said that I was the one person in my family that was not touched by the arts N crafts gene. Today that has all changed!! Thank you again and blessing to you and yours.
This is a very helpful video😊💕! Yes, I did screenshot the steps. They will help keep me focused instead of panicking when I see all the junk. I mean ephemera for my journaling 😆! I get overwhelmed with choosing the things and what to do with them😁. Thank you for all the hard work you put into your videos💗🤗!
Thank you so much Kimberly, I'm glad you found the video helpful :)
It's always soo inspiring to see and hear you, a tru teacher 😊💕💕,, and i have been struggling with cover i shod make, now i know 🥰😄👍, so thank you Natasha for all the fine tips, this is waht I'm going to make for a girl on hers 60 birthday 😊🙌💕💕💕
Thank you so much Pernilla!!!
This video is wonderful, thank you Natasa. I am confident it will help immensely. I am a process person and following step by step is just what the doctor ordered.
Thank you for sharing your steps. I learned several things! My favorite is using the template for the pages ❤️.
Thank you so much for this. I just finished a small travel journal and realized that I hadn't given any thought to a closure 😩. Your breakdown will be of enormous help on future projects 🤗.
@C. H. Thank you! That is a great idea 👍
love the silent setter. Thank you for showing that. Easy to use and easy to store!
Agreed!!
Lovely video...truly enjoy your approach and the way you write out the process step by step. Thank you so much!! : )
Glad it was helpful!
I really want to thank you for making this video! I needed guidance and have saved this for referencing the steps. You are the best! xo
You read my mind tonight, Natasa! I've been sitting here for hours trying to concentrate on a movie I've paused 3 million times because all I'm thinking is...do I sew the signature pages first or wait? One question leads to another question. You've answered all in one video! How great are you 😁 you just don't know how much I appreciate this video and the time you took to make it. Thank you so much ❤️
Thank you so much! I'm so glad the video came at the right time :)
I just watch an rewatch your videos..
Love your combinations for colors and for closures, etc. Mostly i make the cover from some inspiration first and then fill. But I'm always saving individual papers for a signature.
Thank you so much for such an easy explained video step by step so helpful love your work and your channel
You always make your junk journals so beautiful.. I think everything you do it looks beautiful 🤗
Thank you so much!
Absolutely brilliant and totally helpful! Thank you! 🔖📖
Wow that is the very best way iv seen it put together, the template for pages, what a time saver, thank you Natasha, as alanna
The journalist you make are just beautiful. What I really want to know though is do people really write in the journals or do they just create beautiful books? And if they do write in the books what did they journal about?
Love this. Great idea to use the steps to guide your process. TFS. I did!
Going to make one so am starting from the start. Many thanks.
Wonderful! Have fun :)
Love the template, and seeing you use it - so helpful! Thank you for your videos 💜😙
Enjoyed watching your process.TFS.
A Very helpful video! Thank you! ...I Really like this journal. the tassel was Sweet, not too heavy or bulky. I don't do a lot of tassels but the way you did this one was Great! I will try your method. ...I'm all for Simple so this guideline was perfect for me.
Thank you so much Valerie. I'm so glad you like it :)
Thanks so much for sharing your process. 🧡
This is a GREAT topic!
Absolutely lovely ❤
Very nice tutorial. Curious how and when you would have strengthened the spine but this is a great way to approach it. Thank you. Jackie
Spine strengthening would have been my very first step!
I think it’s always nice to learn how others make their journals, you might discover new ideas to incorporate into your journals! love your clip charms (fishing doodads) cool idea! tfs!

Nice 🤩!
very informative. Thank you
I always learn so much from you❤️
I appreciate that! Thank you so much :)
🥰 I would've maybe just added a pocket to back cover maybe? 🤔?... I haven't tried fabric on notebook cover yet, wonder if a blue jean pocket would be cute?
As always Natasha you have delivered such a great video. So helpful and answers all the questions one has when starting out in making journals. I may even now get my first one made lol.
Glad it was helpful!
A great video, I will have to make a journal, thank you 🇦🇺😊
Thank you Jasmine! Have fun :)
Brilliant ♥️♥️♥️
Thank you Joy 😊
Thank you for your help
This is one of the best videos. Everything is clear and concise. I appreciate you taking the time to do this and it reminds me of how unorganized I can be. Where did you get the circular stencil you used? Really liked it and seems easy to use.
Precioso!!!
I love the idea template of pages...... thank you for share this with us..... :-)
I think this was a great video to not only show us your process, but it explains your reasons and gives us some alternative ideas. I was quite impressed. I shared the video. 🐇💜🌻💚🕉️🐌💛🦋🐰🐞
Thank you so much Lala Gamma :)
Thank you!
great❤
Excellent tutorial...
Thank you! Cheers!
Awesome
Natasa, I am a newbie in making JJ from scratch .. Can you tell me if I want to sew the pages like what you showed on your videos, do I need to use different needles from the one I use for sewing materials? Thanks!
Paper blunts your needles very fast. If you use your sewing machine to sew materials, I would have a separate needle. I only use my sewing machine for JJs so I don't mind and I just use the one needle.
Thank you, it seems so overwhelming but you take small little organized steps..XoE
One step at a time, and then its not overwhelming at all. Enjoy!!!
Thank you so much for this informative tutorial. I have been feeling overwhelmed as I venture to start my first journal from scratch. I am absolutely going to follow your steps. I know how beautiful your journals are because I own several of them! So, how can I go wrong?!? Hugs from SC.
Hehe Kathy, you can't go wrong!! When you complete your first journal, please send me a photo! I will be waiting for it :)
Love the junk journal 😍 Can you show us what you write or the picture you use in the junk journal?
I have a journal, front & back that I would like to use, however, I made it big enough for me to put the pages in flat (without any folds). How do you suggest I bid it? I would prefer to have the pages full size, but I don't know how to bind it. Thanks for your help!
Natasa I was looking at flip through videos and you mentioned a letter that you include that explains what a junk journal is and how to use it, at least I think it was you! I believe you mentioned where you found one? Can you help? I just love your videos! Thank you!
Sure, it's on Jibid Nearys website (jibidneary.com) and look in her shop, under freebies.
@@TreasureBooks thank you very much!!♡
