I meant every word of both comments. You are absolutely on the road to 'stardom' , Rhonda! You are def an inspiration to many!! I wish you all good things. And I'm STILL crying over how absolutely beautiful this Box gift Journal is! Its just amazing. ❤️
Dear Rhonda you are not just a journal maker you are an artist. This piece is incredible. I've been a working artist since I was 18. I am now 77. Believe me I know what I'm talking about. Bless you and take care.xoxo
This means the world to me, Ginette🥰 I appreciate your encouragement so much! Thank you for being you! I would love to see your work. Big hugs and many blessings!💗xo
@ginette6896 I agree with everything you said!! Every one of Rhonda's creations are absolutely exquisite! She has incredible creativity and talent...she should have her own Brand and her name in lights!! I remember in the beginning she was so afraid to show her creations. I think she has a wonderful future. 🤩 And she certainly deserves it.
You just amaze me at how your work flows into the old places of my heart. I was raised barning tobacco and shelling peas and picking cucumbers and flowers. I can still smell the tobacco curing in the old barns that were down a dirt path. You convey those feelings well. My husband just bought 1 of your stuffed envelopes. I just love your work. You are such a joy to listen and learn from.
Oh my goodness, Rhonda, this Journal is exquisite!! And the beautiful box it snuggles in is absolutely precious! They are so beautiful, I'm crying!!! I am so happy that you took a chance and started showing us your glorious creations. You should have a Storefront and your name in lights! Your creativity absolutely astounds me, and everything you create is just gorgeous. Thank you so much for sharing them with us. 🥰
Oh, how I appreciate this sweet comment, Jill. (And for your other comment too.) Your kind words have touched my heart! Thanks for sticking around as I grow and become more confident in myself. Big hugs, sweet friend!💗
Hi Rhonda I’m watching your video this evening …my husband got really sick the last couple weeks from liver cancer ..he passed away on the 14th of May …I’m starting to catch up with some videos ..I love your sweet calm voice ….sorrowful yet always rejoicing ..the Lord is good and faithful to us ❤❤❤
Oh, I’m so sorry, Sherry😢 My heart breaks for you! I’m praying for you.🙏🏻 The Lord is good and faithful, just as you said… and your faith is strong. He will surround you with His presence and will keep you in His arms of comfort and peace. Sending you big hugs and much love❤️
Rhonda, What a treasure all the way through! I love so much the photo fold out secured with Gisela’s beautiful lace and that beautiful little chicken wire door is just the sweetest! That white envelope you made with the keyhole slot was so pretty. ❤️
I'm blown away. I love it all, the chicken wire, mini dirt bottle, flower tags, flip out booklet of French pages, the twig and feather tag, embroidered bird piece, etc. I'll have to watch a few more times to get this out of my system. Well done my friend, well done.
It's just so perfect! I am so jealous of that SWEET piece of ephemera of the little girl at the garden! And that DARLING snip of embroidered pillowcase! I love what you do! XOXO
Thank you for saying this, Dody! It means so much! I love that old postcard too. I’ll have to share a copy with you. I love what you do too… I’ve learned so much from you! Hugs!💗xo
Hi Rhonda!! Beautiful journal and keepsake box. Love all the unique decorating within this journal. What a treasure for the lucky person who bought it!! 💜
Oh Rhonda I always love your project shares - it’s never just a journal with you ☺️☺️ The keepsake box is adorable ☺️ There are so many wonderful ideas within your journal - just to name a few I loved the waterfall polaroids and that chicken wire page looks fantastic! I need to try that for sure! Thank you for another beautiful and inspiring project my friend xoxox 😘
Thank you so very much, Sam. You made me smile. I’m so, so happy you enjoyed it! This project was really fun! Love these kits. Thank you so much for the opportunity to be part of your team! Hugs!💗
Rhonda, I would love to be able to put my feelings into a journal, the way you do. You're just so creative. Each project that you'd made, tells a story and I just love that. I visited my father during the summer and I had to pick cucumbers and peas and everything else that was coming off the garden. The summer's between my college years, I had to put up tobacco, but we called it, barning tobacco. You talk about hard, dirty work. I'd do it all again. We spent a many of nights, on the porch, shelling peas and just listening to the summer sounds. How I'd love to make a journal that would convey all those feelings. In the meantime, I look forward to seeing the beauty, such as this garden memories journal, that you have created. Great job. Oh, my husband just purchased your stuffed envelope. I can't wait to receive it. Blessings to you
Thank you so much for sharing this, Trish! I can picture everything you described. I spent many a summer days shelling peas too. We always had a garden and I loved picking those fresh veggies. We’d cut rose blooms to bring inside, and always went berry picking! We had fig trees and pecan trees, so always lots of hard work to keep up with! I loved going to my granny’s where I’d help her gather eggs and she’d even have to whop a snake with a stick sometimes lol. My dad would take us camping on the creek where we’d catch fireflies and cook fresh caught fish over an open fire. So many good memories!🥰 Thank you for all your sweet compliments. It means so much to me. And I’m so thankful for your order! Much love and many blessings!💗
I love the box and all the beautiful details inside and out! The journal is just lovely. So many beautiful details - all the tucks and pockets, the seed packets and stamped images, the waterfall of Polaroids with the grunged up tape… and that little accordion book! All such lovely and unique details 😍 I love how it is bound as well. Thank you for all your kind words! It makes me so happy to see the laces in such a beautiful project. Thank you ❤
Oh, thank you so much, Jaizella! I appreciate all your kind words and sweet compliments. I loved using your beautiful laces you so generously gifted us! Each piece added the perfect delicate beauty. I appreciate you doing this collaboration with us! Hugs!💗xo
The prettiest, most perfect journal ever. I love the muted tones and all the secret spots. The watch on the cover and the chicken wire page are my favorites 😍
Aww, thank you for this sweet comment, Cindy! I’m so happy you loved it! I was happy with how the watch turned out and the chicken wire was my favorite!💗
Hi Rhonda. Wow, I am just stunned with how beautiful, unique and artistic this journal is. You really outdid yourself this time. So many fun and unusual things you've added to this book. Such a treasure. I had to smile about the little jar of dirt. So special. Thanks for sharing this lovely journal and your wonderful inspiration. Hope all is well with you. (Did the boo-boo on your thumb come from the chicken wire addition? Ouchie!) The chicken wire in the journal is so clever. Love the memory box, too. Loved it all.
Aww, how sweet of you, Linda💗 Thank you so much! I’m so happy you enjoyed it all. It was a very fun project! I had sore fingers for sure after working with the chicken wire, but my bandaid wasn’t from that lol. I hope you have a wonderful weekend! Gotta catch up on your videos soon! I stay so busy I don’t have a lot of time to watch anymore. Sending you hugs, sweet friend!💗xo
How fabulous your journal and box are Rhonda! I loved everything and there was so much inspiration! I loved the accordion page you did, and the Mary Mary illustrations is so beautiful! ❤❤❤
Rhonda, what a blessed surprise to come across this video…. I have been looking through with you every meaningful detail. I didn’t want to miss a thing. Thank you for sharing this very special journal. Do you sell your journals? Your presentation and creativity has fed my soul and inspired me so much. I really have appreciated all your thoughtfulness in placing things all together. Congratulations this is an exquisite piece. Xxxx Karyn 🇦🇺
Aww, thank you so much, Karyn! This makes me so happy! And I do sell my journals on Etsy… I always put a link in the description and there’s also a link at the top of my UA-cam home page. Thank you so much for being here and for your sweet encouraging words. It means the world! 💗xo
Hi, Karyn… I just use the books in their original state without adding anything. I might should add a layer of protection, but I just like to keep them as is. Most of the ones I use are already worn and tattered anyway, so it really wouldn’t help I don’t think. I’m sorry I’m not more help on this. Hope you enjoy your day.😊
@@janecottonaro9060You are too cute… I know I could make one similar but I don’t have the same things to work with, so it couldn’t be exactly the same. And everything I make is “figure it out as I go”, so I just go with whatever works at the moment… I don’t always remember how I did things. lol😂 And just so you know, it would be a while before I could get to it! But I can try!💗
I understand 😍. But if you want to try, that would be fantastic. I'm sure ANYTHING you make would be adorable so if you want to try , I'll wait patiently❤️
Love the chicken wire page. Great journal. Just gorgeous.

@@karynpitman-vo3ib Yes, it sold quick!
Hi Rhonda
Wondering what product you use to protect the covers of your original books?
Hi, Karyn… I just use the books in their original state without adding anything. I might should add a layer of protection, but I just like to keep them as is. Most of the ones I use are already worn and tattered anyway, so it really wouldn’t help I don’t think. I’m sorry I’m not more help on this. Hope you enjoy your day.😊
Is it for sale?
It was but sold very quickly!❤️
@joyjunktique would you consider making me another one if I begged you? Cause this is me begging ...big time 🙏
