    Take the front pocket and add a second layer of clear acetate sew, but leave top open to add glitter, charms, etc. Then sew top to keep it in the window or use some decorative paper. Just an idea. Love your pouches!

    These are precious - not only are you giving a book a second life, but you’re creating a great way to tuck in extra little things to put in your journal or scrapbook. I love this idea - thank you for sharing this.

    Love these! So excited to get in my scraproom and make some. Only thing I will change is, the upside down writing on the flap. It would drive me crazy. I know. I'm strange. Lol! So when gluing the back pages together, I will turn one page upside down . Inside and outside flap will be right side up. Thank you for a great video!

    • @TreasureBooks
      @TreasureBooks  5 років тому +9

      I had the same dilemma. But then the back is upside down, and I couldn't handle that. So I compromised this way. I guess we are both strange. hehe
