    Oh my gosh! This is so incredibly helpful. I have the same exact book (well…the sewing version) and I’m planning on making a herbal reference book. I’d been watching a ton of other videos but this one finally came up and it’s hands down the most helpful. Thanks a bunch!! Xx

      Actually I do have a question. What type of fabric do you buy? There were so many I didn't know what to pick.

    • @shawcraft1
      @shawcraft1  4 роки тому +1

      @@MrsHaynesJr I generally use cotton fabric. I tend to favor prints with tiny florals or farm style prints. Those are my favorite. I find a lot of my fabrics at my local thrift shops and Goodwill stores. Try those, and you can get your fabrics less expensively! It will take you a bit to find your "style" and preference, but it will come to you and you will love it!

    I am looking into doing something similar and my apologies if you covered this and I missed it, but: do you need to prewash and/or iron the fabric?

    • @shawcraft1
      @shawcraft1  3 місяці тому +1

      @SurpriseButton no worries at all my friend. I don't ever pre wash or iron my fabric simply because I'm a lazy crafter, lol. But, if it makes it easier for you, then try it. It's just never given me any problems without doing it, so I just saved myself the steps. Tfw!

    I have a hint for your glue jars. If you want them to open stress free, just put a layer of Vaseline on the rim of the jar and lid after you are finished and ready to put them away. And the next time you go to use them they will open so easily. Also, it will do nothing to affect the contents in your jar. I do this with all craft items that have a tendency to stick upon opening. I even do it to my dylusions paints. Thank you for your tutorial. 🌞

    the Aleene's glue you use any special make or just the regular glue? I love your style thanks for sharing your gift

    • @shawcraft1
      @shawcraft1  5 років тому

      yes, it's just regular Aleene's tacky glue. thank you so much!

    Did you say why you used glue and not ModPodge? Internet problem here and video kept stopping and starting.

    • @shawcraft1
      @shawcraft1  5 років тому

      You can use mod podge if you'd like. It's just a matter of preference. I like the Aleene's simply because it's a tad bit thicker of a glue and I guess in my mind it may hold better because of that, lol. Just a matter of opinion, I guess.

    At what point did you show how to measure the fabric needed for this project? And I have no clue what glue you used as "I just refill the jar."🤔 What is gesso?

    • @shawcraft1
      @shawcraft1  4 роки тому +1

      I didn't cut the fabric on video, it was precut. I just simply laid the binder on my fabric and cut it to be about a half inch larger on each side. I don't ever actually measure but more so, I use the "eyeball" method lol. I used Aleenes tacky glue, that's what I refill the jar with. Gesso is basically a primer for your projects. You can get it at any craft store. It's a bit thicker than regular acrylic paint, but if you don't have gesso, you can simply use acrylic paint but I'd suggest sanding it first to get a good hold for the paint. TFW!
