oh my goodness, thanks so much! i will following this tutorial to start making junk journals. i have all the bits and pieces, ephemera, stamps, tea dyed paper, paints, digitals etc. but i realized i didn't quite know where to actually start! :D So grateful !
Hi Donna. I'm new to your channel and I am so impressed! I found Junk Journals at the beginning of the pandemic lock-down, so I've made many since then. But I am always trying to learn new ways, the right way, to do them. And you just hit the nail on the head. Your videos are concise, clear, and easy to follow. A big thank you for your efforts. I, too, am a chronic pain sufferer, having broken my back in high school doing gymnastics. I find my time in my craft room isn't pain free, but being creative takes my mind off of my pain and makes life enjoyable.
hey Karen! it's so nice to meet you 😅 you have picked a great craft to do it's like you said "being creative takes my mind off and makes life enjoyable" so many think like us thanks so much for your beautiful compliments 🙏♥︎♡☆🦋 crafty hugs Donna
I always go to you as a trusted teacher. Your instructions are always wonderfully understandable. I know that your book would be a valuable asset for anyone beginning to make journals.
Hi Donna!! 👋 I've been making journals for about ten years now, and this is, hands down, the BEST vid instructing newbies I've EVER seen! I've just forwarded it to my daughter and her friend! TYSM! Hugs from the Midwest, USA, MK 🤗🤗
oh wow Emm what a fabulous compliment! thank you so much! ive got a big head now lol I think the girls will love making these little journals they turn out super!! 🥰🐝🌹🦋 crafty hugs from Donna in Australia
I wish your junk journal glossary was around when I first started! I was soooo lost and confused for a looong time while gathering the vocabulary to understand what was going on in the tutorials I was watching. All beginners would benefit from Your glossary.
thanks Tuesday! I know what you mean I was lost at the start as well! It's a great book, it's got great reviews so more than us agree! have a great week-end 🙏♥︎♡☆🦋 crafty hugs Donna
I had plans on making one of these in honor of my grandmother.. she loved to sew, made us girls dresses for school, which I still have 2 of them..She didn't even need a pattern she was so good at her sewing! Very cute cover! Your instructions are clear and consise, great video! Funny because my Grandmother's last name is Webster! :) Gotta love synchronicities!
Wonderful! totally agree synchronicities at play here!! this would be the perfect journal to honor your grandmother i love your idea, love to see it when your all done 🥰🐝🌹🦋 crafty hugs Donna
I have been making journals for about 6 yrs now. I still found this a valuable video. I've passed it on to my sister who is getting ready to make her 1st one. I know it will help her.
Hands down the best Journal Tutorial I have seen, I have watched countless tutorials here on UA-cam over the years and yours is the best. Thank you so much for sharing your talents ☺
wow thank you so much Renee what a lovely message and a great way to start my day!! I'm glad you enjoyed the video nothing pleases me more than to know I have helped in such a big way, the pleasure is all mine, take care and happy crafting! ♡☆🦋 crafty hugs Donna
Hi Donna, as you know I am not a beginner, but I did enjoy your video. It never hurts to refresh what you think you already know. As always, thank you for sharing your knowledge. Rose.
If it wasn't almost 2 in the morning I would be making this style of journal right now. Lol! Donna i love your teaching style. You're always encouraging and informative. ❤
Like many have said following this video, a great refresher! Concise! So easy to follow. Ive spent dar to much time collecting rather than making. I've got get stitching! Another idea is to use very thin elastic and tie a knot on the inside. one for each signature! This way a page can be taken out to embellish and slipped back in under the elastic. New sub. Many thanks 😊
hey Elizabeth it's so nice to meet you! I love the elastic idea, it works so well just like you explained! have a great weekend and i'll see you on the next video 🥰🐝🌹🦋 crafty hugs Donna

Hello ! This video is so important... Thanks a lot, I'm so glad with all these explainations so clear ! I'll keep it preciously. Hugs from France ! Sincerely, Agnès
G'day from NZ! First time for me watching your video and I loved it! Thank you for showing and describing everything so clearly; so much information that is so precise and exactly what a first timer needs..I have subscribed to you Donna as I know I'll learn a lot..Cheers!
Yay! g'day Elaine it's so lovely to meet you there's nothing better than waking up to great positive news like yours right here!! you've picked an awesome craft to get into you'll love it happy creating ♡☆🦋 crafty hugs Donna
Your initial comments “zingers”! Good ones. I wish I had known, and/or understood this initially. I have watched many junk journal videos by very advanced crafters and got a lot of ideas, even followed a few folio and other concepts which were great. I think I felt pressure (self imposed) to make a journal with lots of signatures or at least several. You’re correct, it can be whelming and overwhelming! Stepping out too far too fast … hmmm. Excuses? Yeah. They can become that easily. Backing up… Backing up! I believe I am nearing having the craft space designated and organized. Not too big (not enough room for that) not too small (unworkable) but just right? Able to see how my own work flow goes. Now, to just get back to creating. I like creating from imagination and hope to get that going instead of following (too many) patterned styles. Thanks for your encouragement and instruction. ❣️
thanks Jenn I'm pretty passionate about the way you should start, I'm for anything that makes sense, so I'm happy you labelled my opening as "zingers" lol love it 😀 🙏💙🦋
@@JunkJournalideas I’ve been pondering the difference … in so many videos I started with, everyone said use what you have, save this or that, and some other more beginner type advice. However, with very few exceptions, they all made very detailed pages and journals etc. your intro zingers, advice and instructions really helped! And it’s cleared my congested thoughts, though I still have some questions. Such as, with so many journal pages there really isn’t much area to write and so that’s blocked my ability to pick and choose print and picture pages. I think I’m understanding it. But, being one who journals for pages, as if you might not have figured THAT out, those little spaces throw me. Ha ha 🤪😂 so, thanks again for the detailed explanations, advice, and show & tell. ❣️
@@jennr7500 I'm getting straight to the meat and potato! lol I like to add a blank, semi blank or lined paper in between each patterned or book page paper. That said, I also add 75% printed/book page papers and less journaling paper bc that's my style of journaling (not much lol) I suggest you make your journal 75% (e.g) blank and lined papers and then a few book pages and pretty paper for fun sake. You can even add 100% of blank/lined papers and journal away, and then glue some little images that relate to what your writing about on the day. The balance is in your control to enjoy xx
@@JunkJournalideas thank you❣️ I think bc the majority of junk journals are pictures etc I felt rather like I was missing the point? I have odds and ends of stuff completed and much waiting in the way of decorating or becoming such. Why do some or many of us need permissions to be creative? Ahhh. Criticism. That’s an idea killer. For sure. 🤪❤️
Very clear and precise instructions. You are a wonderful teacher! I always watch beginner videos because everyone does things a little different. So I often pick up different tips. But when I first started I watched way too many videos and became confused and discouraged. So I would suggest to anyone to just watch you! Your videos have been amazing! Hugs 🤗❤️
thanks for recommending me Tamara! I appreciate it very much, this journal was so much fun to make and I agree would suit anyone! have a great week-end 🙏♥︎♡☆🦋 crafty hugs Donna
I am crazy about that Women's weekly home journal June 59 edition, I think it is, and cannot find it anywhere in the US. Darnit! I love love love this tutorial, also! First time viewer and new subscriber, thanks for all of the tips and clear education . The page guide was brilliant, and so was the validation that it doesn't have to make sense when picking out what pages you decide to put in the journals. I am a fan of the vintage style and have dived in deep to the collecting stage since discovering junk journaling, about 2 months ago, and I see all these tutorials with digital kits, which are beautiful, but I so love holding a piece of paper or fabric that has a history, and wondering about who held it or wore it and what the story is behind it, etc... I am not disparaging digitals, bc I have bought a couple, but I am so interested in the vintage collectibles and adding them as pages and ephemera, and I always questioned why in the world I felt compelled to put a beautiful botanical page in the journal and also, tuck an ad for a 70s Chrysler in there, as well. Lol Thank you for giving me the permission by saying it doesn't have to make sense.
g'day Monica! it's so lovely to meet you, I loved your letter style comment, it tells me so much about you, you know my friend gave the the that copy of home journal, and I have since seen it for sale on market place, i was in aw they sell for a high price now. I love the index page it is such excellent qaulity paper and worked so well for this type of journal. I'm with you on the digi's theyre great, and have a place, as you can see i sprinkled them in among these pages in this video, bc some ladies just can't get a hold of the real thing. arhh the 70's Chrysler it sounds like we have similar taste, i love that!! thanks again for poping in for a chat until next time ♥︎♡☆🦋 hugs Donna and happy crafting
You are THE best teacher & I’m definitely going to follow your instructions. I’ve practiced making smaller jj’s as a start, but only with blank white pages. Thank you so much . I do have a question - which glue did you use ? I live in Perth so I should be able to get the one you used in your video
Yay! thanks a lot Victoria, if you have been practicing with the blank papers, you are definitely ready to move onto making something like this one. Yes it's Bearly art glue, it lasts me for 2 years a bottle you'll love it 🙏♥︎♡☆🦋 crafty hugs Donna
Hi Donna, I have received and printed out your ebook yesterday. And was my favorite vintage style as well😊, thank you so much for all your generosity sharing and teaching❤
Very clear. I just need to get over the fear of ruining products and do it. I've made ring bound journals but not sewn, which is what I really want to do. Like you mentioned, I've watched so many videos over the last couple of years, that I've bamboozled myself.
thank you @storiesbound I encourage you to use your products bc one you do you won't have that fear no more! the bamboozle is real for sure I remember it well when I started have a great week-end 🙏♥︎♡☆🦋 crafty hugs Donna
I have enjoyed watching your video and have picked up lots of ideas. Will look for your other videos. Your page guide was a brain storm it will save lots of headaches. Thank you.
Yay! thanks a lot Pat, the page guide is a great help I still use it i know you will love it too, i'm all for less headaches!! ✨ ♥︎♡☆🦋 hugs Donna and happy crafting
How nice that you explained this so well. Now I hope that my paper in my journals is even better. checking page after page and removing a piece. but also your page example. Thank you for this step by step explanation Donna.
It can be frustrating when things don't line up exactly, but keep practicing! look up a bookbinders cradle, you can buy them or DIY one, they help get the holes of the pages and the cover in line with the spine 😉🐝🌹🦋 crafty hugs Donna
muito obrigado adoro ensinar e compartilhar, os pequenos detalhes que sei ajudam muito, tenha um ótimo final de semana Elaine 🙏♥︎♡☆🦋 abraços astutos Donna
I have so much stuff to journal with but I get overwhelmed how to sort them for easy grab an go. How do you store your pages? Do you leave them in books or cut the books and sort the pages?
hey Leanne, your lucky to have your stash built up already it sure makes it easier when inspiration strikes, youy're ready to go! I have clear trays that are A4 size they stack on top of each other and I can put whole books in them that I have already taken apart or just loose pages or gathered papers. I mostly take my books apart as soon as i get them home! i love dismantling them. I also have a bookshelf that i lay all my books in a stack rather than put them on their ends ( I dont display the spine) I also have 3 x 2 door linen cupboards that hubs put together for me loaded with shelves. I stack everything and anything in them. 🥰🐝🌹🦋 crafty hugs Donna
