What a fantastic little journal. Can't wait to make one. For future reference... you could've gone with your original idea and simply snipped a hole in the lace to thread your sari closure through rather than cutting it off. 😉
Oh my gosh!!!! Why didn't I think of that?!?!?? That's brilliant! Well, that's what I am going to do on my Christmas one I already have started. Thanks for the idea!!
@@vikingwoman3372 I agree. I love reading comments too and usually learn even more from what I glean there. 😉 When she started talking about cutting it off, I was talking to the video... "No, don't do it..." Lol
There are no mistakes, just new ways to do things. And NO ONE is mad! You are just too sweet and humble. Now I'm addicted to your videos. Keep being you and doing what you do. It works!!
Thank you so much Dawn, I really really enjoyed watching you create these journals they are really really stunning and gorgeous and amazing too. And no one should be giving you a thumbs down for the closure, it’s an easy thing to do and easy to fix too. I watched this 1-year ago, but I really really enjoyed watching this again. Please stay safe and well too xxxx Mags
I’ve so enjoyed watching you create Dawn! If someone is going to hate your little mistakes, just be you and don’t worry about it. You’re doing great girl, and so many people in the comments aren’t worried. Keep sparkling your sparkle!❤❤❤
Oh so often do we see the “perfect crafts” n to be honest, when I have my “well damn” moments, it makes me feel so very inadequate… it is so good to know that you are human, I love how you include the solving of issues. Often I get those moments n go throw it all in the trash n start over because I get stuck. So thank you so much. Love the tutorials so much.
The button really did save the day. I like it. And who would know that it wasn't supposed to be that way. Great job in coming up with that on the fly. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for keeping the mistakes in the video! Like you said, it can be really helpful to see how someone works through a problem. It demonstrates that there are more options than just one way of making something. Super cute!
Thank you for sharing the whole process of making these journals. It turned out beautiful. Adding a button was a cute idea😊! And you stayed calm, I would have panicked 😊! I’m still learning junk journaling. Take care and have fun💗🤗!
Thank you for making this journal. I've just started getting into junk journals and an 'envelope' journal intrigued me. You may have felt embarrassed by the mistakes, but I appreciated it. In starting a junk journal I've made plenty of mistakes, and it was nice to see how you problem solved the situations you encountered. I will definitely be watching more of your videos!
Something you might not have considered…I noticed several times you skipped steps and stated that we knew how to do that. But there are many viewers who are new and might not know how to do that step. And then there are viewers like me. I have never made a journal and probably never will. I just like watching you do it and hearing your voice. Those who do know how to do all the steps and are bored, also know how to fast forward. Just something to think about. Thank you for your lovely videos and projects.
Thank you for sharing the tutorials on how to make your beautiful envelope junk journal and on how to fix an oversight. (I've had a few of them myself) ❤❤❤
My calligraphy teacher said there's never a mistake, just happy mistakes easily resolved... And it's proving true down through the years! Well done for making this amazing journal!
Awww thanks so much Susanna 💙 I just hate messing up on camera but Wendy is a wise lady. I just love her (& you!) So I'll try to remember to see my goofs as just opportunities. Thanks for the reminder and for stopping by channel. It means a lot 💙 xx, Dawn
Enjoyed this tutorial and your “goof” was a bonus! Helped me see that I don’t have to give up and start over when I make a boo boo. And everybody makes them! The journal turned out beautifully. I was inspired and am half-way done making one myself. Thank you!
Cute cute little journal. I was just scrolling thru and found you...subscribed and gonna binge watch ya today. I personally love when someone makes a booboo...you work it out and give us ideas. We are all human!!!! Thanks so much !!!
Love'n how you allowed us to see your goof up. We ALL make mistakes!!! Very nice to see new ways to compensate for these. This is absolutely Beautiful.
I just recently found your channel. Been binge watching. Love your ideas. We all make oops and fix t hem and no one knows. Thanks for showing us what you did to fix it. Cheers
Dawn, I didn’t notice you had made a mistake...... and those two journals are really really stunning and gorgeous.... I really really love 💖 them both. I don’t understand the person who put the thumbs down 👎. They’ve obviously got a big problem. It certainly isn’t you. Thank you so much xxx Mags
Awww, I don't let the thumbs down people bother me anymore. It's just part of being on YT. Joke's on them, though, because a thumbs down gives videos as much attention on YT as a thumbs up. 😁
I’m crafting along with you but didn’t put my signatures in so now I put them in the other flap,, great video with all the goofs, cause thats how I learn, love this booklet & going to make a few of these...thanks.i did see the mistakes ahead of time but couldn’t tell you.....it was so much fun......you were nice & slow so I could figure it out....
I think we all learn from others or even (hopefully) our own mistakes. I cannot imagine anyone would be upset with you. If they've never made a mistake then maybe but nobody hasn't made mistakes so they can get over it. GREAT job! I LOVE this little journal, it's just too, too cute! PatriciaD PS Would love to see a final flip-through with embellishments included.
I really enjoyed this series of your book journal, mistakes as well. thats how we grow and learn. especially for us beginners. beautiful journal for a gift, I am hoping i will see your xmas journal as well........i like to watch my soaps, as no the voices so well now i don't need to look up. lol big fan of Downton Abbey. xxxx
ty for the beaut tip..tracing the envelope shape putting the paper inside. I have been guessing and killing myself measuring..smh you have saved me time and frustrations for which I am soooo grateful :)
Hi 👋🏼, Here I am stuck at home ! with this stay at home orders due to Coronavirus going on and didn’t want to make another card so I came across your video and boy was I happy I knew right when I was watching I had to make one and so I did 😄and it came out great thank you for an awesome project share love it 😍
Beautiful journal! Mistakes and all! Since we are all imperfect ...its normal and we're not alone.😄💗 Been along time since I've made one of these. I feel inspired! Thank you so much!!!
Dawn, those journals are really really stunning and gorgeous, I wrote a comment before and it wouldn’t load, so I’m going another. Thank you so much xxx Mags
Looks beautiful Dawn,goofs and all, it's nice to know how to fix the boo-boo's, because that can really stump some of us. Thanks for the tutorial....tfs....Mary
Thanks for sticking with me till the end Mary. It wasn't how I planned, but it worked out. Thanks for the kind words and continual support. It's greatly appreciated. Xx, Dawn
Such a lovely small journal this turned out to be! I've seen no goofs, just creativity at work 😉 Thank you for working out all the steps, everything was SO well explained! TFS 💕
It’s crafting!!!😊 No need to apologize, we all make mistakes! Every project has its issues😊😊😊😊! Beautiful job! !! The button just added character❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️
Aww thanks! Boo boos happen. Sometimes people are not very understanding about those things. Thanks for watching and for putting up with my airheadedness!
I have loved making this along with you!! I noticed where you put the pocket and wasn’t sure if hats where you were doing it for this one and couldn’t pull mine off but stuck one on the back as well. Lol. Thanks so much for the tutorial!!
Love the envelope journal mistakes and all and I have this paper but i have used most of it but I plenty of other paper. Thanks for the tutorial.....cyndi m.
Sometimes when I do a video, I tell everyone "Let me tell you the good, the bad and the ugly". Mistakes or things that don't go right help us all grow and do better!
Dear Dawn, I just started watching your channel and want to tell you, your work is beautiful! I’m not sure if it qualifies as a “junk journal”. Thank you for all your great advice and creative projects.
I watch you make journals and can,t wait to try my hand at one. Your boo boo was fine and we aren,t perfect and very learning point for those. Who make journals. Just keep on making them.
Excellent problem solving! Thanks for the tip about the paperclip -- it will save the hole I've made in the spine, because I usually keep pulling on it.
Thank you for a great tutorial!! Mistakes on camera and seeing how you work through it is always helpful, so thank you for sharing 💕 I wanna make one of these. I happen to have that exact paper pad 😊
Thank you for this tutorial!! I appreciate seeing how mistakes are made and then how to handle them. Love your teaching style too. We’re Cleveland Brown’s fans here. But I leave that up to my husband will I watch old movies. ☺️
Lovely journal, I'm going to make a few. I was calling out to you to not cut the ribbon but put a little nick in the lace edging, thread it through and glue....you would have never seen the cut in the lace. lol
I know! I wish I could hear you guys!! Someone else commented the same thing and I'm like why didn't I think of that?!?!? But. I'll have the same issue on my Christmas one I'm making so I'll be sure to do that on it. 💙
Love this idea!! In watching, maybe if you take an envelope apart for an example to get your outline....just thinking while watching. Thank you and have a great day. I haven't seem your other two videos so I will differently hunt those up.
Love the paperclip tips,i dont know why i never thought of that lol ;) watching other videos is fun and helpful :) I love these envelope yournals-or pholio thingys lol ;) love them,want to make some as soon as i get some big long envelopes-or maybe i will make some ;). Big hug from a sub in norway
We all make mistakes so thanks for sharing yours! Just thinking that you could leave the tying ribbon/closure on and cut a small notch in the lace trim before you glue it down to let the tying ribbon/closure poke through?
The journal is wonderful! Just perfect for a short trip or something like that. Couldn’t you have made a small slit into the trim and then pulled the closure through? The button is very cute though.
Yes, that suggestion has been made and was pinned at the top. I also mention that in part 4. Yes, I agree, I think it would be the perfect size to take along on a small trip. Have fun with it! xx
Your glue looks like it needs to be thinned with acetone. I learned that from NikTheBookSmith. Also, in ref to the volcano, JenofEveDesigns finds that not shaking it down but letting it naturally flow helps the problem, too. I'm going to try the Artymaze way, too . I watch netflix on my tv so I'm your number 1 voueur!
I love the video and will be making one with my own mistakes! I also watch prime videos and finished watching Home Fires and they ended it at the second season right in the middle of a wedding and never finished the plot line. So sorry like so many others. I loved the series Numbers too and watched it every week and thought it would be good for math teachers to show their classes. I will have to watch it now that you shared it was on prime. I usually watch game channel or food shows and then I get hungry. I love football too and have watched and gone to games of the Cowboys since junior high age and I'm 66 now! I also watch Texas Tech and follow them since I graduated from there and watched Mahomes play there and now watched him win the Super Bowl this year!
Yes, I hate that they end shows like that right in the middle of a plot. I was watching 'My Mother and Other Strangers' (another show on PBS) and didnt realize they had ended it after 1 season. I was so frustrated when I couldn't find the next season. I watch the Cowboys a lot because Zeke played for Ohio and we're big OSU fans. Also, like watching Dak Prescott (my daughter's name is Dakotah 😊)
I purchased mine in store at Hobby Lobby. Not sure if you have a Hobby Lobby where you are but I've put the link here for you www.hobbylobby.com/Scrapbook-Paper-Crafts/Card-Making/Envelopes-Seals/Kraft-Envelopes---5-3-4"-x-8-3-4"/p/140987
Thank you! That means a lot. It's a tough world on youtube. You wouldn't believe some of the judgemental mean comments I've received. I try to remove them quickly so subbies don't have to see them. People sometimes expect perfection and forget there's a real person behind the camera that reads those comments..... so thankful for the kind encouraging words 💙
Love this journal, the paper you chose is beautiful! Where did you get your lace??- Love it! No apologies, you did a fantastic job and you are a great teacher! New subbie, glad I found your channel!
Thank you so much for sharing your process. I’m just getting back into journal making and you make it look so much easier than it used to be. Do you mind if I ask what nail polish you have on? It’s gorgeous too!! 🥰
Thanks for joining me. Sorry for the boo boos but it worked out in the end. Ideally I like 15 minute videos but I didn't really want more than 3 parts. I don't like videos to be overly long either.
I didn't get what sort of cloth you used to reinforce the spine. Sounded like "Surrey." My question is: could one sew the signature into the cloth and then glue the cloth on to an additional spine reinforcement? This would conceal the thread stitches and perhaps make it unnecessary to cover the spine from the outside also. It would also be a lot easier to handle the sewing. Would the book come apart if one did this?
The cloth was Sari. Sari silk ribbon is recycled from old sari garments (India women's dresses). It makes beautiful ribbons and if purchased from a fair trade supplier, provides income to Indian women
What a fantastic little journal. Can't wait to make one. For future reference... you could've gone with your original idea and simply snipped a hole in the lace to thread your sari closure through rather than cutting it off. 😉
Oh my gosh!!!! Why didn't I think of that?!?!?? That's brilliant! Well, that's what I am going to do on my Christmas one I already have started. Thanks for the idea!!
@@thebookvandalshop5592 you're welcome! so glad I could help. Sometimes being so close keeps you from seeing it. Lol.
@@dinapreuss1922 i did not even think of that,i love when i learn new stuff from the videos and then more from the comments :)
@@vikingwoman3372 I agree. I love reading comments too and usually learn even more from what I glean there. 😉 When she started talking about cutting it off, I was talking to the video... "No, don't do it..." Lol
I was kind of thinking that myself
There are no mistakes, just new ways to do things. And NO ONE is mad! You are just too sweet and humble.
Now I'm addicted to your videos. Keep being you and doing what you do. It works!!

I know I do too! But most of the time mine are unfixable.🤦🏻♀️
Mistakes make us humans they hopefully help us not to do it. It shows you care. Love it.

Wow, I can’t wait to make one of these beauties. Absolutely love the paper that you used! Love that you can think on your feet😊😊😊😊
💕 Thank you
The papers and things are very inspiring. I keep watching your work.
Thanks so much!
Love mistakes, it's how I LEARN!
Hello again hope all is well happy crafting 🎉😊
Thank you! 😊
We all make mistakes so thanks for sharing yours! Just thinking that you could leave the tying ribbon/closure on and cut a small notch in the lace trim before you glue it down to let the tying ribbon/closure poke through?
Well done on your refit :)
love these
The journal is wonderful! Just perfect for a short trip or something like that. Couldn’t you have made a small slit into the trim and then pulled the closure through? The button is very cute though.
Yes, that suggestion has been made and was pinned at the top. I also mention that in part 4. Yes, I agree, I think it would be the perfect size to take along on a small trip. Have fun with it! xx
Love this project...can't wait to make one.
This is lovely...The papers are beautiful...Many thanks for sharing! X
Thanks for watching!
Your glue looks like it needs to be thinned with acetone. I learned that from NikTheBookSmith. Also, in ref to the volcano, JenofEveDesigns finds that not shaking it down but letting it naturally flow helps the problem, too. I'm going to try the Artymaze way, too .
I watch netflix on my tv so I'm your number 1 voueur!
Wonder if it would flow better if stored upside down.
I love the video and will be making one with my own mistakes! I also watch prime videos and finished watching Home Fires and they ended it at the second season right in the middle of a wedding and never finished the plot line. So sorry like so many others. I loved the series Numbers too and watched it every week and thought it would be good for math teachers to show their classes. I will have to watch it now that you shared it was on prime. I usually watch game channel or food shows and then I get hungry. I love football too and have watched and gone to games of the Cowboys since junior high age and I'm 66 now! I also watch Texas Tech and follow them since I graduated from there and watched Mahomes play there and now watched him win the Super Bowl this year!
Yes, I hate that they end shows like that right in the middle of a plot. I was watching 'My Mother and Other Strangers' (another show on PBS) and didnt realize they had ended it after 1 season. I was so frustrated when I couldn't find the next season. I watch the Cowboys a lot because Zeke played for Ohio and we're big OSU fans. Also, like watching Dak Prescott (my daughter's name is Dakotah 😊)
If you had looped back the ribbon where you attached the button on the spine, you could have had a spot to hold your pen😄
Wonderful project!
Please don't apologize for a little boo-boo, we've all made them. I personally would never have the courage to craft on camera, so kudjos to you!-hugs
Loved the videos ... mistakes as well ( we all make them, lol) Can you provide the link to were you purchased the brown envelopes? Thanks 💓

My friend and I are doing this project during the shelter in place. I hope to post it on my UA-cam channel tomorrow or Saturday.
Turned out great. :) Lots of creative inspiration opportunities! :) Tyfs!

Good job fixing the mistake. 🥰
Thank you! 💜
JUST STOP IT!!! WE LEARN FROM OUR MISTAKES. YOU DID FINE. LOVE IT. ITS BEAUTIFUL.🙂💕
Thank you! That means a lot. It's a tough world on youtube. You wouldn't believe some of the judgemental mean comments I've received. I try to remove them quickly so subbies don't have to see them. People sometimes expect perfection and forget there's a real person behind the camera that reads those comments..... so thankful for the kind encouraging words 💙
OMG you are so smart - doing the cut out
Love this journal, the paper you chose is beautiful! Where did you get your lace??- Love it! No apologies, you did a fantastic job and you are a great teacher! New subbie, glad I found your channel!
This particular trim came from Hobby Lobby I think. Thank you for your kind words 💙
Enjoyed this! So pretty!
Love your journal
Thank you so much for sharing your process. I’m just getting back into journal making and you make it look so much easier than it used to be. Do you mind if I ask what nail polish you have on? It’s gorgeous too!! 🥰
Oh thank you! I have no idea what color it is. I pay someone to do my nails and I usually tell her to just put on whatever color she likes
Thanks! Classy looking. Thanks too for keeping the videos at 30 minutes.
Thanks for joining me. Sorry for the boo boos but it worked out in the end. Ideally I like 15 minute videos but I didn't really want more than 3 parts. I don't like videos to be overly long either.
I didn't get what sort of cloth you used to reinforce the spine. Sounded like "Surrey." My question is: could one sew the signature into the cloth and then glue the cloth on to an additional spine reinforcement? This would conceal the thread stitches and perhaps make it unnecessary to cover the spine from the outside also. It would also be a lot easier to handle the sewing. Would the book come apart if one did this?
The cloth was Sari. Sari silk ribbon is recycled from old sari garments (India women's dresses). It makes beautiful ribbons and if purchased from a fair trade supplier, provides income to Indian women
I think that method would probably work just fine.
