I'm 80 years old and I have a letter from my grandmother written 60 years ago to me which is the most unusual item in my junk journal.
Awe wow that’s so amazing!
What a treasure 😊 !
Can you post a video of it?
From another yt viewer (Hi, I’m Donna) and I think that is an awesome piece of memorabilia! The main reason, however, that I am sending you this comment on your comment is that I am so glad to hear that you junk journal!! I am 74 (and feel like a young chick inside!) Of course the outside tells a more true story…but who cares! Junk journaling is not all that old of a craft (I think) and I was actually wondering which age groups would be interested…. I am furiously getting ready to sell my house and move to a small town where I will know exactly one person, that is my son! As a way of meeting people I plan to either find a jj group or start one! I am trying to figure out the best way (or any way actually) to get the word out about it. I am just wondering how you got involved with junk journaling? I know it’s a bit like scrapbooking which we know from long ago but to me it’s much more artistic. I don’t know if you check for people commenting back to you but I hope that you get this message as I would love to chat a bit more with you! 😊💕Donna
How very precious!
I’ll be showing my 10yo daughter this video. She loves anything to do with paper art. Your creativity will be a huge inspiration to her.
Awe fantastic! Tell her I say hello and to keep exploring her creativity 🤗
❤❤❤
This would be a cool format for a fictional short story, maybe a mystery that you need to interact with to figure out.
Delightful!!!! Senior citizen here, with no artistic abilities!!!! This was so encouraging and inviting to me!!! Loved it and will watch again. Thank you!!!! 🫶🙏🕊️
Glad it gave you the courage to give it a go! We are all created to create 💛
You should write a book I love all your ideas so beautiful ❤
Maybe one day! 😉
What a treat to see so many journaling techniques in one video! You not only capture special memories, but have created a way to make those memories even more memorable. I do the same thing with teabags and tags, and I love hiding things in plain sight with tuck spots and other hidey methods. BEAUTIFUL! 🙂
Thank you! Yes it really does make them even more memorable 😉
And who doesn’t love a nice hidey hole 😊❤
Why is no one talking about your lovely speaking voice and cadence ❤ (not to take away from all the beautiful inspiration)…new sub here, loving it!
Awe thank you so much ☺️
What a lovely compendium!! 😍 I will absolutely rewatch this later for reference. It’s hard to pick a favorite! I think the Waterfall Card is the most unique idea - I don’t think I have seen that on any other channel!
I use tipins and doors all the time. One of my favorite doors was made with a simple watercolor gradient I painted onto a heart shape. I then stenciled a little bit of iridescent paint on the heart, sliced the heart down the center, and attached the outer edges of each half to the page. Then used hot glue to attach a button on one half, and threaded a length of string through the other half. So it made a little heart door with a button closure that opened to reveal a special photo 🥰 I actually recorded that process, but have never had time to edit the footage.
I really love those shaker pages, too! 🤩 I’ll have to try that. It seems like a great way to reuse plastic packaging.
One of my favorite materials to recycle is actually deli paper (if clean, of course). 😅 I don’t have much disposable income to spend on journaling supplies, so I’m always looking for free resources. Completely by accident, I discovered that the deli paper at Lidl’s makes a wonderfully warm, semi-transparent, kraft-tinted door to cover private entries. It’s also a great collage background that mimics aged parchment! Highly recommend saving it the next time you get a pastry from Lidl! 😅
Anyway, your videos are always so inspiring and uplifting. 🥰 You have such great ideas and a beautiful, refined style. Thank you so much for sharing! 🩵🕊️
That button heart pocket you made sounds so cute!
I love all these ideas! So creative! I can’t wait to try some of them out! 😊
Yay! Thank you!
the most unusual item I have put in an envelope, is the souvenir smashed pennies from the cranked machine at many tourist destination gift shops. great in small envelopes! Thanks for sharing, good ideas.
I love interactive pages, I try to insert as much as I can in my journals, they are so fun to create and makes reviving memories so surprising because in time you are not able to remember everything and details and memorabilia are such a rich addition to it. Thank you so much for sharing your creativity, listening to you is so relaxing, you're just unique ❤
Totally agree ☺️ thanks so much!
WOW! As a scrapbooker, I absolutely love how you creatively combined that craft with journaling. AWESOME! I'll be rewatching many times.
Yay! Yes I definitely have a scrapbook style ☺️ love combining them!
I love these ideas! Thank you for sharing! 😊❤
Glad you like them! 💛
Extremely well presented, just loved every example of the endless possibilities 🎉😅
Glad you liked it! Thank you 💛
I do so many of these and yes I keep tea tags and use them in my journal! I love them! Thanks for adding to my ideas for my big journal. You have such a beautiful journal! Swoon!
Thanks so much! 💛
0:47 Just right off the bat I try not to get discouraged as I just started making Junk Journals and my supplies are limited and I’ve only made three. I can’t wait for the day I have lots of journals that I’ve made. And they are full of all the little goodies inside.
❤️💜💚
Yes it all takes time 😌 enjoy the journey!
Beautiful journal. As a therapist and avid journaler myself, I use journaling a great deal with clients and I LOVE your content! ❤️
Awe thank you so much ☺️ it is a great therapy tool for sure
Not only am I a newbie to your channel, but to journaling so am so glad I found all of your wonderful ideas. Thank you! ❤❤
So glad you found our little community! 💛
I made a slow stitch book called "Time for Tea" and used the labels on each page, along with hand-made tea bags (original bag, my filler 'tea leaves'). It was so satisfying.
Sounds like a super fun journal
When you started with tip-ins I rolled my eyes, but then when you showed countless ideas for just the tip-ins it gave me so much inspiration. Great video and I am saving it for reference ❤️
Haha, yes gotta start with the basics for beginners and then work our way up to some of the more advanced things like waterfall cards! I’m glad you found it inspiring ☺️
I am so happy I found your videos I love all these great ideas..
Absolutely wonderful! You've given me so many wonderful ideas. I feel like you've given me a gift I"ve been waiting for my entire life! Thank you so much!
Yay, thank you! 💛
I just love this idea! I wish I had heard of these ideas before!
I love this channel. It brings beauty and grace and the love of a delicate craft back to the world.
Awe thank you so much!!
These are such fantastic ideas! Thank you for sharing your personal journals so that we could see so many ‘real’ examples. I find this particularly helpful. Your journals are just beautiful! 🥰
Thank you for a very good explanation. Such a beautiful bunch of memories kept in a creative way
Wonderful selection of interactive elements. 💜🐞
I love all these different interactive ideas.❤ Tea bag pockets for the win!
These are such great ideas - thank you!
This is a very impressive and formal interactive tutorial so very inspiring Wow! Outstanding! TFS God Bless your creativity 🙏🏽❤️🔥👌👏

Thanks for subbing! Welcome to the fam!
@ Thank you and blessings to you and yours! ☺️
This video is gold! Absolutely amazing ideas, I’ve sent a link to my friend. Thanks so much!
@@CherylsCreativeWorld33 awe thank you! 💛
you create journals I wish I could! I don't have an active life (don't go out, travel, etc). Yours are so cool!
Love the way you memory keep, your journals are beautiful! Thank you for sharing your creative ideas. I will be trying several 💛
Gorgeous interactive journal ❤ I admire your creativity. You have such a pleasant voice. Thanks for sharing your ideas ❤😊
Love all your ideas , thankyou.... I love using cards and envelopes and hiding extra photos and ephemera in my journals. :)
Right!? So fun!
Great, great ideas. Thank You!
Glad you like them! 💛

Thanks for all the great ideas
Wonderfully Neat. Thank you.
Lots of
Great ideas
Oh my stars! I just found your video and I’m simply AMAZED! So much information shared so beautifully and generously. I am totally new to making journals and found they are my most favorite thing to do. Thank you thank you for giving me tools, ideas, and especially excitement about my new endeavor. When i saw your title of My Abiding Journal is suspected that you were a Christian and then when the video ended I saw the Bible verse and I was even more thrilled to find you. Sorry if I am babbling - can you tell i am excited to have found your site 😂
Awe you’re very kind! Welcome to the abiding fam ☺️ sounds like you definitely found the right community. God bless you!
New viewer & subscriber! You’re very talented. Thanks for sharing and inspiring me!
Thank you for the ideas
This ideas are brilliant, what a stunning journal ☺☺
Thank you so much! 💛✨
thank you for the new ideas
What a fun beautiful journal. Thank you for sharing your ideas.
Thanks for watching and commenting! ☺️
You just have given me a totally new idea. Listen 🤗 this is for you too because I've seen this nowhere. You talked about that you wanted to use all your senses in your journal. Well, what about smell? Tomorrow I'll try this: I'll spray some perfume on some tags (by example). This would be so nice when you take them out and they smell nice. I love that idea ❤❤❤
Thanks for inspiring me 🥰
Yes I’ve done this before with perfume! Such a great idea ☺️
@@MyAbidingJournal in which video can I see that?
@@bentereekers9808 it’s not something I’ve shared in a video, just something I’ve done before 😊
@@MyAbidingJournal really
Beautiful creative ideas. 😊💕
Love it. I use a lot of those techniques but the shakers and bookmark/tags are a new idea I want to try more of ! ❤ I often use center popups and add scented items into envelopes or little bags as well.
Center pop ups is one I haven’t tried yet but would love to! ☺️
@@MyAbidingJournal I did my first center pop up as a birthday cake last year on my b-day surrounded by door/flap presents for different personal reflections underneath, it turned out super cute. And now I'm hooked on them.
What fun ideas, @mafincl! I love the idea of adding scented items to envelopes!
Your jounals are very cute and well pit together. Great new ideas and different takes on standards. I likes your moving elements and bookmark ideas especially. You made me laugh, though, when you said you wanted to enjoy journals with all five senses. I have yet to figure out how to get taste or hearing in a journal, although i suppose it might be possible? Maybe thats a new challenge?😂
Hahahahaha fair! Three senses is probably the limit 🤣😂
Oh my! I’ve been here for so long, that I remember most of your pages! 🤭🤭🤭
It all started with the “war binder”! 🤭🤭❤
Last week I was desperately trying to find the flow calendar “tiny treasures” but it’s not available any more of course, but thanks to you I have my old, cute tiny book!
@@Rosepineres awe that warms my heart. Yes the calendar is no longer available but all the same images are in their tiny book for tiny pleasures, which is still available and linked in my Amazon shop ☺️
@@MyAbidingJournal I bought the book, years ago but I don’t like the fact that I always have to choose each image I want, since it not an image per page! If one day I decide to buy a printer I’ll sign up to your Patreon since I love your illustration!
Thank you! ❤❤❤❤
You're welcome 😊 thanks for watching!
Your ideas are so creative and your work is so beautiful! Congrats on becoming engaged in my hometown Lancaster PA :)
Love Lanc! 💛🙌🏼
Inspirational! Thanks for so many great ideas! Your journals are amazing!
Thank you so much!
Loved your interaction ideas! I’m making a safari themed journal for my daughter. I have been thinking about adding a shaker as a little stomach for a boa constrictor and adding these teensy people I have in it for a silly touch. I can’t decide if that’s too morbid tho. lol.
@@kelechim-8406 hahahahaha I think it can be funny with the right little quote or phrase by it to explain the joke a little. Love the creativity!
Your journals are beautiful. Thank you for sharing.❤
Thank you so much!
Beautiful book
Lovely, simply lovely
What a great, inspiring video! Thank you so much ! ❤
Wonderful ideas to add to our journals. I love having more space to add pics or words. I love the vellum idea, I’m going to try it.
Thanks Belinda! ☺️
I just found your page. I LOVE this video. Thank you for these beautiful, creative ideas!!!
Thanks so much! 😊
Best video I’ve seen in awhile!😻
Encontré lo que buscaba cuanta creatividad!!!! Quedé asombrada felicidades por ser tan original . Veré los demás videos !!! 😊
I just found your channel! Thank you for sharing these fantastic and creative ideas. I’m on a four week PNW vacation and will definitely use these ideas.
We got to visit PNW last summer - it is stunning and so worthy of documenting ☺️ enjoy your trip and welcome to the abiding fam!
This was amazing! TY!
Thanks for all the ideas. I will incorporate them in my Journal. I also see that you went to Sights & Sounds in PA to see Queen Easter. I also went to see it and thought it was wonderful when I stayed a few days in Pennsylvania Dutch countryside. Have s blessed day. 🙏🙏🙌
Yes we love Sight & Sound! Just saw Daniel this year ☺️ Esther was also amazing! Thanks for watching 💛
Thank you, I am this way also. I went to card classes, and I was taking the basics, but I was doing it the way I wanted to.my teacher would also tease me in the class, but alone she would tell me how much she admired it. I am a feeler or touched like you are
Yes so fun to get to touch and feel and interact ☺️
Some really lovely ideas, your journals are gorgeous! So many memories and treasures in them all
Thank you so much!
Thanks so much for sharing! A lot of such great ideas. ❤
Your ideas are inspired and your journal is just stunning! ❤ Also your videos are so well made! (Just a suggestion: lose the music that accompanies the title cards you have between sections. The music is unnecessary and way too loud. Thank you!)
Thanks for the tip! I usually try to lower the volume on the music but forgot to on this one :P sounded okay on my computer but I know it can be different with earbuds
Great ideas! I subscribed. TFS🤗
Welcome to the abiding fam 💛☺️
Lots of interesting items used for interactive ways i already knew about…like the deer added with washi, maps or brochures attached in part but folded, attaching feathers with washi but not encased, tea packet as a pocket and soooo many more. I took a bunch of screenshots!
An idea for you is to sell a digital of idea book (examples from your video). I imagine you could make money on each - just with your examples! Layle By Mail does this with her idea book only you could offer it strictly digitally. Avoid printing and shipping.
Thanks for the fresh perspective!
Yes they’re so many ways to apply the same techniques!
What amazing ideas!
Beautiful, easy inspiration! 💗
Just found your channel. I love how you preserve your memories in such a colorful and fun way! What is the journal used here? I like the size and the fact that it lays flat. Can you share your source?
Welcome! And thank you! I share a few different journals in this video-mostly my moleskine cahier notebooks but also ones from dingbats and archer and olive.
Loved this video! I'm very curious what the tools are at 12:08--is that a heat tool to seal the plastic pocket? I want to make a shaker so bad. :D
Yes it is! It’s called a fuse tool - linked in my Amazon shop amzn.to/3YtVRsD
Very nice video, thank you 😊 question: what's the best glue you can recommend for this? Something that will keep things intact for decades? What holds glossy paper, like magazine photos or photographs? Thank you ❤
Wow - your Diary-cum-Journal scrapbook is AMAZING! And you do it all in plain notebooks! I'd like to know how long does it take you (daily, weekly?), where do you get the products/ephemera that you use, how do you store them and, in general, what is your approach. I'm inspired to make my own look better. Greetings from a Florida gal
Thank you so much! It totally depends. Some years I journaled every day for 20-30 min or an hour or so on the weekend. Lately it’s just when I have some spare time. And I have an Amazon list and an Obujo coupon code in my description where I get lots of my supplies
@@MyAbidingJournal Thank you for replying & for the information. I am binge watching your past videos. You are VERY creative, and I am learning much from viewing them. All my best to you ❤
So many great ideas! ⭐️
Yay! Have fun! ☺️
Fantastic ideas💞
You give wonderful. Fun tips. These ideas are fun!!! Do you journal daily? It takes alot of work and time. Do you have a journal craft center where you work at this?
@@VictoriaTaylor-jl1mp it has varied year to year. Lately I only journal 2-3x a week but there were years where I did it daily. I do have a desk in my home where I have all my supplies
Brilliant I’m definitely going to try these ❤ thank you for sharing
Have fun! Thanks for watching 💛
I just found your channel and I love all your ideas. Where do we find the Memory Protector Shields Flip Flaps to make the shaker cards. They are super cute! Do you have a video that teaches how to make them?
Thank you so much. ❤️
The ones I got most recently were made by Simple Stories but of course product availability is always changing. I recommend looking for 2x3 photo sleeve refills and using those. I have a full tutorial in my Patreon videos archive, but also share how to do it as part of this LIVE (starts at 1:27 mark) th-cam.com/users/live0D4V9F4yoUk?si=xCr5k-i7ZAlAnkPh
Wow ❤ trank you!
Hello!!
Amazing creative journal so cool! Wanna know what paper do you use for your peek-a-boo ?
I often use vellum ☺️
I absolutely love your book. How/where do you print your pics?
I use my printer at home (epson ecotank 8500) and make collages using PicCollage app
Thank you for sharing. Your journal is inspiring. How often do you journal?
And how long does each entry take?
Thank you
It totally varies! Sometimes only once a month but I hope to journal a few times a week. Also depends on the entry. Some pages only take 10 minutes, others may take an hour!
I absolutely love all of these creative ideas. I also really like your style of journaling. I would like to journal more on a day to day basis highlighting the main events during the month and to include photos to capture the moment. Do you print your own photos? If so I'd love to know what type of printer you use.
Thank you so much! I use an epson ecotank 8500
