Good Sunday afternoon Janet. We had my dad’s memorial gathering yesterday. It was very nice. Today, I am relaxing and watching videos. Your Teddy Bear journal is precious. I love Paddington and Pooh. Have a good week ahead! 🧡🍁🧡
@@janetnash yes and I guess you are also .. my bulbs arent in yet ... I do a hard clean up after Halloween... all the dead stems adds to the Halloween theme .. my tree is losing its leaves pretty fast .. yesterday it was 20c .. today its 8c .. Good grief , Charlie Brown.. 🎃💜🎶
What a cute journal! I still have my childhood teddy. I put him at the top of the Christmas tree each year. Well I haven't been able to last few years as our tree was too small but then he goes underneath and wears a red bow. So nice of you to read some Winnie the Pooh to us. Thanks, Janet for all the inspiration you give.🥰
I so enjoyed you teddy journal in the making flip through. All those beautiful images. I don’t think I have a calendar from 1996 I wish I did 😊. The teddies are super cute I think this will be a journal that just keeps getting bigger 🐻thank you for sharing 🧚♂️❤️
Thank you so much, yes isn’t it a lovely calendar and yes I definitely can see this expanding with fold outs and extra pages, it’s such fun collecting for it. Have a gentle time over there in fairy central 🧚♀️🦊
Such a lovely collection of teddy bear images, and each with an adorable name. What precious bears and the quaint little chair from your dear Mum, your grandfather was obviously a fine craftsman. The stained glass window which dear Freddie was peering out of is very beautiful. Your videos often remind me to honor the inner child within, thank-you...🧸💖🧸
Maria thank you so much for all you’re lovely words, so lovely to see you, I do hope you are sleeping and resting well. Oh yes this year more than ever I feel I am slowing down, simplifying and definitely honouring my inner child. May you find pockets of peace during the coming week 🕯️🧵🎨
@@janetnash Thank-you dear Janet...I wish the same for you... a little quote you may like... " See the world through the eyes of your inner child. The eyes that sparkle in awe and amazement, as they see love, magic and mystery in the most ordinary things..." ( Henna Sohail) 🕯🌻🧵
@@janetnash Your very welcome dear Janet💖. Am enjoying catching up on the live, so inspired by your pockets of peace journal, I have been thinking about making one with fabric🧵. Another quote I came across today...."I wake up in the morning and see that flower, with the dew on it's petals, and at the way it's folding out and it makes me happy" ...(Dan Beuttner) . Will be think about you this week as your dear boys head out on their trip, if they happen to hop across to the land of Oz, I shall put the kettle on and stock up on the Yorkshire tea🫖🍵😊💖
Awww Maria the boys have a two hour stop over in Sydney !!!! Oh a fabric pocket of peace journal sounds amazing so comforting and cuddly. I am making the one for Julia and have adapted it so it can literally be taken in a pocket, just working / playing it and thinking it through now. Oh thank you for that beautiful quote Maria. Have a gentle evening and night 🩵
Dear Janet this was such a lovely video thank you so much my teddy bear now lives with my grandson he looks a little worse for wear the teddy bear that is . He is loved and has been loved for many years . First by me then my brother then my two children and finally my grandchildren this is going to make a very lovely journal for you I have an idea the little pictures in the calendar would make the perfect size for a waterfall if you haven't made one check out attic treasure she has the best way of explaining it love and blessings
Judie thank you so much,oh how precious you’re teddybear must be and so loved by so many generations, how precious. Thank you for sharing the waterfall idea for the teddy pictures I will give that a try. Do hope you have a lovely weekend.
Hello, I stumbled upon your channel just yesterday and I have to tell you just how much I love it. I’m a card maker and small crafts, and you have inspired me to do more. I’m always intimated, however you make it look so fun! I love Pooh and passing ton so much, oh and Beatrix potter. I live in the USA and I thinks it’s so wonderful that we can connect via internet. By the way, I LOVE your voice, it’s so calming. 😊 well, just wanted to tell you that I’m enjoying your channel .
I'm from the US too and love the International community Janet has gathered thru her art. You might enjoy looking back on her many and varied posts. Monday morning she does a live video and you can chat awhile. Tuesday is process video day where she demonstrates paper crafting, slow stitching, painting, journaling, etc and Friday is usually a flip-through of a finished journal. I know you will find her channel very inspiring, warm and welcoming, positive, and quite educational.
Rachel how lovely to meet you, thank you so much for you’re lovely words. Oh isn’t it amazing the internet it makes it such a small world doesn’t it. Oh Beatrix Potter is one of my favourites too, her little stories and fabulous illustrations. 🩵
Oh welcome curious moon, oh isn’t Patty wonderful, absolutely love her journaling, glad you could pop over. That basket !! love to have loads of journals on the go ! Happy journaling 🩵
Freddy is so adorable❤️❤️❤️ the calmest doggie in the world❤️❤️❤️ I love that you tell us to use what we have. There are channels I watch that are great, but promote so much purchase requirements and expensive stuff, it is discouraging rather than motivational. So you feel undersupplied to do anything. But, I am fine with what I have. Iv been collecting junkmail and bits for a year now. And trying to get magazines which finding free is not so easy. I adore this idea of collecting likeness clippings! The 90s were the best for calendars! I have saved a few from expiry at the gift shops. They get trashed if not sold. genius way to make themed projects. My goodness this calendar would have been such a prize for me. Even now. I am a child at heart :) its too cute! I wanted all things Cabbage Patches as a child. Are the wooden drawers from Ikea? I always wanted a vintage cabinet with pull drawers but these can be modified to look old!
Jane, oh it is a such a blessing to keep, find or rediscover our childhood wonder. One of the best parts of a journal like this, is collecting over time, no rush. Yes the drawers are from IKEA, years ago, I can’t resist decorating something, I friend popped round the other day with a cardboard draw set that once contained makeup! that’s getting covered. Wishing a a gentle creative weekend 🧸
@@janetnash haha of course! those makeup drawer advent calendars are perfect for crafters. That is a good friend! I love the fabric scraps you get. I think we can build some drawer organizers out of shipping boxes then cover them though wood is sturdier. I loved your handmade chair what a talented man! and your covered trunk deserves a look through. I might do this to an old broken jewelry box from the 70s instead of painting it. Decoupage it as a winter project. I hope you will do some crochet, knitting show and tell one day. You clearly are very talented. I love crochet and knitting. I had the ambition to make myself some Irish and Norwegian cardigans, but they will be hard for me as I never followed written patterns in crochet or knitting before. I forgot how to make sleeves. Oh, Today I finish fall chores outside, and gather all the leaves, cedar and seeds I can. 🎃we might get snow soon! its too early!
@@canadianjaneoriginal do hope the last of the fall gardening goes well today. You must be exhausted. You’re right it was a makeup advent calendar. I find one a cardboard box has paper and layers of glue ( podpodge or PVA ) it is quite strong and sturdy. Yes it’s always such a fun project to cover. I love crochet and knitting as well, started a pair of fingerless ( knitting ) yesterday. Rest well after all you’re hard work.
hi Janet ,once again you have surprised me with another great idea for a journal. I cant wait to see how it grows, fabric would be great to use for the tablecloth of the picnic ...I wonder what treats will there be and who will appear...love and thoughts linda from sydney
Linda good morning do hope you have a lovely Sunday. Oh thank you, yes a red gingham table cloth great idea, you’re wonderful comment has really got me thinking, such fun. Happy creating. 🧸
It's going to be a wonderful journal!!! I collected pigs for years, I'd like to create a piggy journal! I get an awful lot of inspiration from you! I listened as I drove my client around. Then again as I drove home. Now I watched it too. Your mom's 60 yr old bear is 5 years younger than me. you mentioned the boys used your lovely little chair. Aside from Ben, do you have another son? TY for all you do!! Namesta🐞🐞🐞🐻
Lala oh so glad we could keep you company along the way and the. When you arrived home after a busy day, feet up I hope. Julia ( fairy creator ) collects pigs and is going to make a pig journal. The fun part is collecting and looking through them. I have another son Sam. Sending love you’re way. 🐾🧸🧚♀️🐞
Hi Janet lovely journal your making , I have most of the Paddington bear coins, my first art competition I won was when I was little of a signed copy of an original Paddington bear book it got lost way back but I remember my name being in the local newspaper 😆 xx
Oh that’s a lovely memory Tracy 😊 Can you remember what art work you created for the competition ? 🧸 Have a lovely weekend 🐾 love to Baley from Freddie
Haha how funny .. well sometimes it's best not too I always wanted to go on the Jim all fix it show very glad that dream didn't happen 😬 I used to love art attack and morph p.s I've left u a msg in insta xx 😘 @@janetnash
Oh true true ! I yes watched art attack with the boys and we had an art attack party for one of the boy’s birthdays and they all made a creative mess ! 🐾
Ooh a teddy bear journal, that’s the best! 🧸 That card from Kristina is too cute for words, and with your teddy bear shaped pages inside too, what a delight! 😍 Auntie Jennifer made that polar bear? WOW! Oh and the calendar with all of the named bears… everytime you show something it’s just getting more and more adorable. I’m not sure if I can handle this cuteness overload hahah! 🧸🧸🧸🧸🧸 Love seeing your Mum’s teddy bears. Paddington! Oh how I hope one day I can travel to England and adopt a Paddington to bring here to the forest. Oh and Pooh bear too. Such wonderful cozy bears and as you say, so full of wisdom as well. They know what’s important in life don’t they?❤ Eggs and soldiers - that was my fav breakfast when I was little.☺ Thank you for a wonderful, creative morning. Lots of love and hugs from all of us over here in the forest to all of you! (and extra kisses to Freddie and Honey from Sophia) 🐶💕✨💕✨❤🌳
Amy oh thank you for popping all the over from the Doki Doki Forest 🌳 ❤️ I’ll pop the kettle on you’re just in time for boiled eggs and soldiers. Kristina’s beautiful little card started me off I am having so much fun collecting for this little journal 🧸 Have a gentle week Amy take good care of yourself 🍄 Oh Happy Halloween 🍬🍭
Hi~I'm new to your channel. I'd just like to make a comment, no complaining from me, ever.....You mentioned "bone-folder" I worked in a library for a while, and our "bone-folders" were antiques and made of real bone! They had yellowed quite a bit, but were lovely to hold. Also, the picture of the bear, and your comment was, lovely. They're not so lovely when they attack all your bird feeders right after you've filled them. Those beasties scare me. I really appreciate your calming nature. Give Freddy and Honey (am I right here?) a scratch on the chin from me. PS We're related to AA Milnes' wife, Daphne, does that make me a 3Xcousin to Winnie?
Mandy so nice to meet you. Oh wow bears in the garden ! when my son went to Canada he would have liked to see bears but on the other hand was relieved !! Freddie the larger dog is my constant companion and little Honey is his friend, she had popped over for the day. A relative of AA Millne how wonderful, the hundred acre woods is based on a real place in Sussex, it has the little bridge too, for the odd game of Pooh sticks, Freddie stayed there with a friend once and enjoyed lots of lovely walks there 🌳
Oh thank you so much Fawn, I didn’t realise how much teddy stuff so had ! There are 4 different Paddington bear 50 pence coins, and the are still in circulation and can be spent, it’s always fun to check you’re change, but we use contactless cards more and more now. Have a restful Sunday 🩵
Adorable journal!! ❤
Susan thank you so much 🧸
Glorious teddy journal ❤❤❤
Selina thank you so much, I am really going to enjoy adding to this one 🧸
Janet I love that.

Oh Maria thank you so much I absolutely love this quote thank you so much for sharing. 🩵🍄🧚♀️
@@janetnash Your very welcome dear Janet💖. Am enjoying catching up on the live, so inspired by your pockets of peace journal, I have been thinking about making one with fabric🧵. Another quote I came across today...."I wake up in the morning and see that flower, with the dew on it's petals, and at the way it's folding out and it makes me happy" ...(Dan Beuttner) . Will be think about you this week as your dear boys head out on their trip, if they happen to hop across to the land of Oz, I shall put the kettle on and stock up on the Yorkshire tea🫖🍵😊💖
Awww Maria the boys have a two hour stop over in Sydney !!!!
Oh a fabric pocket of peace journal sounds amazing so comforting and cuddly. I am making the one for Julia and have adapted it so it can literally be taken in a pocket, just working / playing it and thinking it through now.
Oh thank you for that beautiful quote Maria. Have a gentle evening and night 🩵

Dear Janet this was such a lovely video thank you so much my teddy bear now lives with my grandson he looks a little worse for wear the teddy bear that is . He is loved and has been loved for many years . First by me then my brother then my two children and finally my grandchildren this is going to make a very lovely journal for you I have an idea the little pictures in the calendar would make the perfect size for a waterfall if you haven't made one check out attic treasure she has the best way of explaining it love and blessings
Judie thank you so much,oh how precious you’re teddybear must be and so loved by so many generations, how precious.
Thank you for sharing the waterfall idea for the teddy pictures I will give that a try. Do hope you have a lovely weekend.
Hello, I stumbled upon your channel just yesterday and I have to tell you just how much I love it. I’m a card maker and small crafts, and you have inspired me to do more. I’m always intimated, however you make it look so fun! I love Pooh and passing ton so much, oh and Beatrix potter. I live in the USA and I thinks it’s so wonderful that we can connect via internet. By the way, I LOVE your voice, it’s so calming. 😊 well, just wanted to tell you that I’m enjoying your channel .
I'm from the US too and love the International community Janet has gathered thru her art. You might enjoy looking back on her many and varied posts. Monday morning she does a live video and you can chat awhile. Tuesday is process video day where she demonstrates paper crafting, slow stitching, painting, journaling, etc and Friday is usually a flip-through of a finished journal. I know you will find her channel very inspiring, warm and welcoming, positive, and quite educational.
Rachel how lovely to meet you, thank you so much for you’re lovely words. Oh isn’t it amazing the internet it makes it such a small world doesn’t it.
Oh Beatrix Potter is one of my favourites too, her little stories and fabulous illustrations. 🩵
Happy creating 🧸
Linda thank you so much you are so lovely. You’re right what a wonderfully supportive community we have, so fortunate. 🍂
I don’t know how you find so many beautiful images Janet 😅
Oh thank you Deborah 🩵
Hi Janet just found your channel through Patty. I love your filing system.... looks rather like mine. Loving your Journal. 💕
Oh welcome curious moon, oh isn’t Patty wonderful, absolutely love her journaling, glad you could pop over.
That basket !! love to have loads of journals on the go !
Happy journaling 🩵
Freddy is so adorable❤️❤️❤️ the calmest doggie in the world❤️❤️❤️ I love that you tell us to use what we have. There are channels I watch that are great, but promote so much purchase requirements and expensive stuff, it is discouraging rather than motivational. So you feel undersupplied to do anything. But, I am fine with what I have. Iv been collecting junkmail and bits for a year now. And trying to get magazines which finding free is not so easy.
I adore this idea of collecting likeness clippings! The 90s were the best for calendars! I have saved a few from expiry at the gift shops. They get trashed if not sold. genius way to make themed projects. My goodness this calendar would have been such a prize for me. Even now. I am a child at heart :) its too cute! I wanted all things Cabbage Patches as a child.
Are the wooden drawers from Ikea? I always wanted a vintage cabinet with pull drawers but these can be modified to look old!
Jane, oh it is a such a blessing to keep, find or rediscover our childhood wonder.
One of the best parts of a journal like this, is collecting over time, no rush.
Yes the drawers are from IKEA, years ago, I can’t resist decorating something, I friend popped round the other day with a cardboard draw set that once contained makeup! that’s getting covered.
Wishing a a gentle creative weekend 🧸
@@janetnash haha of course! those makeup drawer advent calendars are perfect for
crafters. That is a good friend! I love the fabric scraps you get.
I think we can build some drawer organizers out of shipping boxes then cover them though wood is sturdier.
I loved your handmade chair what a talented man! and your covered trunk deserves a look through. I might do this to an old broken jewelry box from the 70s instead of painting it. Decoupage it as a winter project.
I hope you will do some crochet, knitting show and tell one day. You clearly are very talented. I love crochet and knitting. I had the ambition to make myself some Irish and Norwegian cardigans, but they will be hard for me as I never followed written patterns in crochet or knitting before. I forgot how to make sleeves.
Oh, Today I finish fall chores outside, and gather all the leaves, cedar and seeds I can. 🎃we might get snow soon! its too early!
@@canadianjaneoriginal do hope the last of the fall gardening goes well today. You must be exhausted.
You’re right it was a makeup advent calendar. I find one a cardboard box has paper and layers of glue ( podpodge or PVA ) it is quite strong and sturdy. Yes it’s always such a fun project to cover. I love crochet and knitting as well, started a pair of fingerless ( knitting ) yesterday.
Rest well after all you’re hard work.
hi Janet ,once again you have surprised me with another great idea for a journal. I cant wait to see how it grows, fabric would be great to use for the tablecloth of the picnic ...I wonder what treats will there be and who will appear...love and thoughts linda from sydney
Linda good morning do hope you have a lovely Sunday. Oh thank you, yes a red gingham table cloth great idea, you’re wonderful comment has really got me thinking, such fun. Happy creating. 🧸
It's going to be a wonderful journal!!! I collected pigs for years, I'd like to create a piggy journal! I get an awful lot of inspiration from you! I listened as I drove my client around. Then again as I drove home. Now I watched it too. Your mom's 60 yr old bear is 5 years younger than me. you mentioned the boys used your lovely little chair. Aside from Ben, do you have another son? TY for all you do!! Namesta🐞🐞🐞🐻
Lala oh so glad we could keep you company along the way and the. When you arrived home after a busy day, feet up I hope. Julia ( fairy creator ) collects pigs and is going to make a pig journal. The fun part is collecting and looking through them.
I have another son Sam.
Sending love you’re way. 🐾🧸🧚♀️🐞
Oh Lala another piggy lover I’m halfway through my piggy journal it’s a work in progress. Oh definitely start yours and share all the fun 😊😊😊😊🐷🐷
You’ll be able to share ideas, I will keep my eye open for piggy ephemera for both of you now 🐷
Hi Janet lovely journal your making , I have most of the Paddington bear coins, my first art competition I won was when I was little of a signed copy of an original Paddington bear book it got lost way back but I remember my name being in the local newspaper 😆 xx
Oh that’s a lovely memory Tracy 😊 Can you remember what art work you created for the competition ?
🧸 Have a lovely weekend 🐾 love to Baley from Freddie
@@janetnash it was just a colouring page I think I was around 6 or 7 years old at the time xx
Oh how lovely, I always dreamt one of my picture’s would be show. On Blue Peter ! ( it may have helped if we had actually sent one ) ! 😊
Haha how funny .. well sometimes it's best not too I always wanted to go on the Jim all fix it show very glad that dream didn't happen 😬 I used to love art attack and morph p.s I've left u a msg in insta xx 😘 @@janetnash
Oh true true ! I yes watched art attack with the boys and we had an art attack party for one of the boy’s birthdays and they all made a creative mess ! 🐾
Ooh a teddy bear journal, that’s the best! 🧸
That card from Kristina is too cute for words, and with your teddy bear shaped pages inside too, what a delight! 😍
Auntie Jennifer made that polar bear? WOW! Oh and the calendar with all of the named bears… everytime you show something it’s just getting more and more adorable. I’m not sure if I can handle this cuteness overload hahah! 🧸🧸🧸🧸🧸
Love seeing your Mum’s teddy bears. Paddington! Oh how I hope one day I can travel to England and adopt a Paddington to bring here to the forest. Oh and Pooh bear too. Such wonderful cozy bears and as you say, so full of wisdom as well. They know what’s important in life don’t they?❤
Eggs and soldiers - that was my fav breakfast when I was little.☺
Thank you for a wonderful, creative morning. Lots of love and hugs from all of us over here in the forest to all of you! (and extra kisses to Freddie and Honey from Sophia) 🐶💕✨💕✨❤🌳
Amy oh thank you for popping all the over from the Doki Doki Forest 🌳 ❤️ I’ll pop the kettle on you’re just in time for boiled eggs and soldiers.
Kristina’s beautiful little card started me off I am having so much fun collecting for this little journal 🧸
Have a gentle week Amy take good care of yourself 🍄
Oh Happy Halloween 🍬🍭
Hi~I'm new to your channel. I'd just like to make a comment, no complaining from me, ever.....You mentioned "bone-folder" I worked in a library for a while, and our "bone-folders" were antiques and made of real bone! They had yellowed quite a bit, but were lovely to hold. Also, the picture of the bear, and your comment was, lovely. They're not so lovely when they attack all your bird feeders right after you've filled them. Those beasties scare me. I really appreciate your calming nature. Give Freddy and Honey (am I right here?) a scratch on the chin from me. PS We're related to AA Milnes' wife, Daphne, does that make me a 3Xcousin to Winnie?
Mandy so nice to meet you. Oh wow bears in the garden ! when my son went to Canada he would have liked to see bears but on the other hand was relieved !!
Freddie the larger dog is my constant companion and little Honey is his friend, she had popped over for the day.
A relative of AA Millne how wonderful, the hundred acre woods is based on a real place in Sussex, it has the little bridge too, for the odd game of Pooh sticks, Freddie stayed there with a friend once and enjoyed lots of lovely walks there 🌳
Welcome to Janet’s ❤️❤️

Are the 50p Paddington Bear and Pooh Bear coins in circulation? Or are they collectibles?
Your bear collection is so sweet...
Oh thank you so much Fawn, I didn’t realise how much teddy stuff so had ! There are 4 different Paddington bear 50 pence coins, and the are still in circulation and can be spent, it’s always fun to check you’re change, but we use contactless cards more and more now.
Have a restful Sunday 🩵
