Craft With Me - Let’s Recycle Old Packaging and Make Something New - Junk Journal Style!

- Опубліковано 11 кві 2024
- Hi Guys,
I wanted to try something I have never done on my channel before. I have been hoarding old packaging from all the new goodies that I’ve purchased. A lot of the packaging is so beautiful and has so much potential that I couldn’t throw it out. Here I’m sharing just a few ideas on how to reuse it all and make something fun for your junk journals or gift to a crafty friend.
A lot of what I used today was from an order I received from Journalsay.com. I will link that haul down here in case you missed it.

Thanks so much for watching!
Have a great weekend,

Hi Maggie. Gee, I so look forward to your videos. They just make my day. Your ideas blow me away and you've become such an exciting part of my day. I love that you just get stuck in. I also dont agree with the person that said you are wasteful of product.I know she wasn't be awful, it just bothered her, but it seemed a strange comment when you were using packaging that most people put in the bin!! I love that you dont mind wasting a bit of this and a bit of that. We horde so much stuff that its great when your not too het up over a bit of washi tape or keeping bits of paper or cutting up an image. You've got to do what comes naturally to you, and I for one, absolutely love your style. Off to see if I can find some packaging. I'll be saving it from now on. Thanks hun, have a great day x
Hi Lorraine, You don’t know how much your comment meant to me. This just made all the difference in the world for me. I understand that I might not be able to please everyone, but I’m definitely doing me! I appreciate you so much. Thanks for watching and for your kind words.
I smile every time you say, "What is it?" Love your videos and your projects. ❤
You’re all inspiring. I know when I’m making something and someone gives me input, I hand them paper and glue and tell them “make it how you want”. Thanks for sharing and inspiring.
Hi Robin, you made me laugh. Thanks for watching and for your kind words. I tend to hold my tongue a lot when that happens to me. :)
I am so glad you addressed all of our saved packaging. What great ideas you shared! Thank you so much for all the time you put into these videos.
Hi Janelle, I’m so glad that you enjoyed this video. I had fun going through all my packaging to play around with. Thanks so much for watching
Love how you use the Tim Holtz people in your fabulous creations Maggie, you have such a great eye. I especially loved the window with the lady looking out, just lovely ❤
Such a great idea using our packaging items like this. You’re so very creative, and I really enjoy watching and listening to you. Your voice is calming. You make us feel like we are in the room with you, while you make all these pretties.thank you for your inspiration!
Hi Erika, I’m so glad that you enjoyed this project. It was a lot of fun trying out different ways to make old packaging have a whole new use. Thanks for watching
I love the arch window one and it’s good to see you are not afraid to just use one part of an image - so many people consider it sacrilege or wasteful. I’m always fascinated by the things you come up with. The others in this video were great too .
Thank you so much Janine, I appreciate your comment. I had a lot of fun sharing these ideas. Thanks so much for watching
Maggie very inspiring. I really enjoy using packaging to make ephemera. I have to chuckle when you say “What’s happening”
Great video.
Lol…it’s my way of playing down my frustration. Ha! I’m so glad you enjoyed this project. Thanks so much for always watching! :)
Yay, I'm glad I checked in, love those labels xx Really love how you have a 'blonde' moment and can't remember the names of things, like a paperclip!!! Thanks for sharing, great makes again xx
Hi Sam!! :) I’m glad you checked in too. It’s crazy how when the camera turns on I seem to forget what everything is called. Lol
Thanks for stopping by Sam. Have a blessed day

Oh my gosh! I love these so much. So much cuteness! I have saved all my plastic packaging because I feel so bad there’s so much and use them all the time (I have a ton) 😞. Why I didn’t think to hold on to the packaging, especially TH 🫢! I look forward to every video, You are so talented!

Love them all! On the third one, the flower sticker and the book page. Where did you get those from?
Hi Mimi, is it the stain glass window sticker packaging? It should be from my last Temu haul I believe.
They came out just lovely! beautiful! I would love that wide washi with the ads on, how can I find it?
Hi and thanks so much for watching! I’m so sorry, I tried to find the same advertisement washi and couldn’t find it.
I love all of your projects…. just curious, what do you end up doing with them?
Hi Sherry, I use them in other projects or journals I make. Thanks for watching
Thanks for giving us ideas for our
packaging scraps! I have an observational tip(hopefully you won't think I'm being a pest)
1. I noticed when you glued down the last lady, and she slipped, you must have gotten into the glue for when you were finished smoothing her down she had glue on her face. You might already know this, but, I've seen other artist use a kneaded eraser take the glue off.
2. You said you use a paper to place your washi scraps on. You might want to store them on wax paper so you can reuse them. I use little scrappy pieces to hold my cutting dies down so they don't move.
I hope these suggestions are helpful! I'm fairly new to your channel and love everything I've seen so far. Hope you have a Happy Weekend, tfs 😊
Hi Kimberly, thanks so much for the tips.
1. I actually have one of those erasers and forget to use it.
2. If the washi scraps are worth saving I will, otherwise if they are just too small to bother with it then I won’t.
I appreciate you watching. Thanks again Kimberly for the tips. Have a great day
@SunsetCrafts you are so welcome! I am new to jj and appreciate what you creaters do so much! Have a great day and TFS 🙂
Hi Maggie I look forward to your video every day. I just love your ideas! One thing that bothers me is sometimes you are wasteful with product. Today you did a video about recycling packaging and you were consistently wasting washi and other items. Maybe take a look at your video so you can see what I am talking about. I know this might sound like a small thing but if you waste an inch every card it adds up. I realize you don’t do it on purpose, I just want to bring it to your attention. Thank you so much Maggie!!❤❤❤
Thanks for your comment Sarah
@@SunsetCrafts I hope I didn’t hurt your feelings. I wasn’t trying to be harsh or hateful.
@sbonhamleo I know I will not please everyone with my style of crafting and I’ve learned to accept it. No hard feelings. Everyone is entitled to their opinion.
