Traveler's Notebook Set-Up for 2019
Happy New Year to all my viewers!
We all start out the new year with the desire to change so we can become more organized and productive in our lives. That is what my plan is for the 2019 set-up of my traveler's notebook. My desk is stacked with journals for sketching, painting, planning and writing. I realized I'm only using a few pages of each journal each month and carrying around the rest of the blank pages, unnecessarily. What if I only carried around the pages I needed?
In this video I show how to divide each journal into segments and make them into booklets for the traveler's notebook. The notebook will contain a bullet journal, mixed media journal, sketch journal, 2-year daily calendar and a daily journal. All "consolidated" into one journal you can carry with you and use.
If you are interested in additional free inserts to download and print for your traveler's notebook, please check out Ray Blake's website www.mylifeallinoneplace.com

DIY Watercolor Sketchbook (Accordion Style) no sewing, stapling or taping
มุมมอง 30K5 ปีที่แล้ว
In this video I'll show you how to make a watercolor sketchbook from a single sheet of Strathmore 400 Series, 140 lb. watercolor paper. There is no sewing, stapling or taping necessary because the sketchbook is made from a single sheet of 22" X 30" watercolor paper. It's folded, cut and re-folded in what I call an "Accordion/Flip" style. I added a cloth-bound cover for additional protection for...
DIY Midori Style Traveler's Notebook and Inserts
มุมมอง 37K5 ปีที่แล้ว
Follow along as I show you step-by-step how to use the leather from an old favorite purse to make this beautiful handmade traveler's notebook. I break it down into easy steps and create not only the leather notebook but also the booklets to insert into the notebook. I'm using recycled leather from a well loved purse, that could no longer be used, but you can purchase new leather from the craft ...
DIY Disc Bound Sketchbook
มุมมอง 8K6 ปีที่แล้ว
In this video I'll show you the steps and supplies I used to make a customized disc bound sketchbook. I show how to modify the disc bound system so you can use an adjustable three-hole punch instead of purchasing an expensive Arc hole punch ($52.99). This method can also be made using a single hole punch. I also show how to modify the Arc covers to fit your sketchbook and other types of materia...
Fantastic instructions. Thank youj
Amazing video, beautiful finished product! You are a calming voice as you teach, will I try this, perhaps! I don’t think I’ll be as calm! Thanks, Karen Dirmish, learner
I'm so glad you enjoyed the video. I know you can do it. Just take a deep breath...relax and take it one step at a time. 😊
I love this! I’m going to use it with my students next year…..thank you!
This is bloody brilliant 🇬🇧
Thank you, I'm so glad you enjoyed the video.
BRILLIANT!! I'm so glad I found this, I never thought about using an old purse I bought long ago..you had me cracking up both at you and myself. I'm a DIY'r too. It really struck me when (if not making your own journal wasn't enough AND the notebooks) you finally broke down and actually BOUGHT a couple of pens..I found that hilarious 😂because in a DIY'r world we would make the pens if we could!! Thank you so much!!!
I'm so glad you enjoyed the video. The best part of repurposing objects is creating something useful with what you have as opposed to storing it in the closet and it becoming clutter. As for making pens....I have carved dip pens out of bamboo sticks....does that count? 🙂
@beebearts-bethfranks3766 OMG!!! You are too much!!! Perfect, would love to see that video too!!! Absolutely, please!! I am just exploring the "dip pens" and fountain pen rabbit holes.
🎉🎉🎉
Perfect
Cool idea 🙂
lol @ ice cream truck drive by.
Fantastic ideas
Thanks. I'm glad you enjoyed the video.
So clever. Thank you for great tutorial.
Thank you...I'm glad you enjoyed it.
your paperclip idea is fantastic. But having it recessed by carving out only top layer of carboard... is GENIUS!!! thank you for showing us how to make this clever journal 😊
Thank you...I'm so glad you enjoyed it.
Why not interleave sheets of cereal bag non stick plastic between covers and paper so it can be pressed?
Extremely creative. I am impressed!
Thank you, I'm so glad you enjoyed my video.
What a beautiful and useful watercolor sketch book you made. Thank you for such clear and concise directions. I do outdoor sketches and am so anxious to make this book. Thank you so much for making and sharing this video.😊(I may put a pocket inside the back cover.)
Thank you so much, I'm glad you enjoyed my video. A pocket in the back would make a great addition 😊
That's some nice leather, looks like you took good care of your bag, nice to salvage old reliable items and give them new life
What a great travelers note book cover!
Thanks, so glad you liked it.
Love it thank you for showing how to do it, you make it look easy.
Thanks...I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Excellent tutorial..concise, and to the point….well done! Thank you!
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it.
Where did this lady go? She's brilliant and amazing. Please come back and educate us.
Bloody brilliant
Brilliant tutorial! Made perfect sense to me! I have made accordian books before without covers. So now I can go ahead and create sturdier ones with covers. ❤ TYSMFS! I am saving this video for reference.
Thanks so much. I'm glad my video was helpful.
Looks fab! Thx 4 sharing.
this is such a great idea! I haven used the Arc punch but as you said, the holes are too close to the edge. I have used quilt template plastic for covers but they got brittle and broke. I still love the idea, though! I made one using my 2 hole punch that I use the most. I use binder rings to hold them together and they are secure. My cover is some teal fake snakeskin that wraps around with a flap that has an elastic loop that holds it shut.
I have made a few of these over the years using different sized papers. I love working in them and when they are full, you cam lay them out flat and see them all at once! You can use the pages singly or unfold as man my as you want. I discovered that I have lost track of what to cut, so makinga practice one out of copy paper first saves me frustration and paper! You can make them portrait or landscape, depending on which folds you cut.
Thank you so much for posting this tutorial! You make clear & simple. I've made small one page books for writing but never thought to make this as a sketchbook. I suggest an alternative binding. Hedi Kyle's non-adhesive binding is great. You will "lose" the first and last panels of the book, however you can use watercolor paper for the covers and have 2 surfaces to paint on. I have so many new ideas for art (not specifically for writing) books. Thank you so much for the inspiration!
it´s amazing! such inspirational...and your hands are magical! greetings from Mexico <3
Thanks so much! I'm glad you enjoyed my video. 😊
So cool! Thank you so much for sharing this with us... 💕🙏🏼💕
New subscriber. I love this idea. Thanks for the inspiration. Blessings and 🤗
Thank you. I'm so glad you enjoyed the video. 😊
Thanks for inspiration! I’m starting this right now😊
Thank you...that's great to hear!
“I still have my old friend. I never have to give it up.” I love that through my soul.
Thank you for this tutorial! I made one these and I love it. I made a few personal adjustments, like I covered mine with gel prints instead of fabric. It is perfect for what I wanted. Thank you!
Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Great video! So many ideas in one video. Others would have made 3 or 4 videos out of it! Thanks very much!
Thank you! I'm so glad you enjoyed it.
Wow! This is absolutely ingenious!!
do you plan to make more videos in the future, beth?
I made mine for fieldnotes size. Horween dublin.
This is so clever and easy and I love it!
I love this. It looks super nice and well done for something so simple!
Thanks for sharing this it's a great idea and I have to try it
This was great, Beth! My wife recently bought me a traveler's sketch book and this was very helpful.
So incredibly beautiful!! Absolutely loved this video :))
Thank you so much. ☺️
Awesome
Awesome upcycle. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks 😊
This made me remembe'r I had about large sheets of water color paper just sitting around. Sure enough they're 22x30. Can't wait to try this.
That's great to hear. 😊
AWESOME!!! TYFS! ♥️🙏
What an inspiration! I would like to save my sketches and paintings in one place, in chronological order and this way makes that possible, no matter what paper I did the work on! I am so glad I found this video!
Thanks...I'm so glad my video was helpful.
Fabulous instructions!!!
What a great little project!
I have made these books before too but not with the band, very clever. This year i just made a few extra as I have a few friends I want to give some too. This will give them a finished look, thanks for posting this.
Thank you, I'm glad you liked the video. Your friends are very lucky to have someone as thoughtful as you.
Congratulations!!!!
