✨How to make a beaded spine-charm for your journal with letter beads✨
Due to popular demand (thank you so much for the love), here is a video in which I talk you through how I make my spine-charms.
I’m using 1.5mm covered elastic which you can easily get online or from haberdashery shops. You can totally use transparent non-covered elastic, too. I think the fabric-like texture is a nice detail though and it adds to its durability. At the same time non-covered elastic may be more "invisible" and have less bulk. Have fun experimenting with different combos!
The beads are from TK Maxx and Solstrene Grene.
I hope you enjoy this video. Any questions leave me a comment and I’ll try and help!
Thank you for watching and happy beading! 😁

    This is a very cute journal decoration, makes me want to dig out my age-old letter beads. 😄 For the Weeks you could also string the elastic trough the hollow of the spine to make the elastic and join completely hidden, but that would mean that you can't take the beads off without cutting the string.

      HON just has a hardbook cover. Same contents inside.

    • @thejournalingpotato
      @thejournalingpotato 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      To add to what @charnguyen22 said: This particular "Paper Series Black Gingham" is more of a soft cover. It has the same dimensions like the Cousin, because the cover edges are cut flush with the pages. The hardback-Hons have covers that protrude over the actual pages and the cover material is wrapped around the hard cover. And therefore the width and height is larger than that of the Cousin/Paper Series Hon. Be careful though, some of the photos on the Hobonichi site for my Black Gingham actually show the hardback-Hons.

    The "discoloration" is due to light. Over time, undied leather changes color as a reaction to UV rays, humidity, etc. Now this reaction varies from one piece of leather to the next because they're from different body parts or animals, but also because the light and those other factors hit them differently. Most of my undyed covers display this variety, which is just part of their beauty. Hope this helps.

    • @thejournalingpotato
      @thejournalingpotato 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Oh I haven't thought about UV damages. You're right that the sun can definitely cause discolourations... But in this case I think the lining is also a dyed leather, same as the yellow outer. I rarely have this cover open and if it was sun damage shouldn't the bit that's discoloured in my cover remain unaffected because I had a sticker there the whole time? I'm still going with the theory of oils from my fingers. It's not a huge deal as I still love the cover and I can just continue to cover the area with a sticker, hehe. Thank you for sharing your experiences with me though!

I like this one as I find it more portable. And I also keep sticker flakes and other bits in. The other one is a larger A5-ish sized plastic folder from AliExp that has 2 broad vertical sections per sleeve. In there I can leave the loop sections much longer and I only use it for PET tapes or washi tapes. I definitely use the items more that I see, hehe. Hope this helps!

    All the green items were very appealing. Pepsi is very cute (even if he's disruptive)! I have the same thing about mixing styles/brands and I'm trying to loosen up about it

      Loosen up ought to be my mantra for next year all things journaling 😂 Pepsi says thank you for the compliment.

      Yes, gifting is defo a good idea. I had two PanAm blue covers and gifted one of those. That person was just getting into journaling and was talking about travelling so I thought it was a good fit for them. I may save this one to gift... or maybe the Tokyo edition. We'll see 😬

    Gosh that vintage blue colour is beautiful 💙!! I notice your copperwist products too - I think their products are stunning and look super high quality.

      I love that gentle blue - they picked well. What do you mean by Copperwist products? I googled them and a jewellery brand came up - do you mean them? Sorry if that's a stupid question 😬
