    I think maybe the parchment paper i bought at Dollar store would work. It is Fairley clear, much more economical than vellum. I love this idea. Thank you

    I love this! I love the idea of the packing tape on the sides of the pages, too. Maybe you could reinforce the bottoms of the pockets with the packing tape, also, by starting with the top pocket, add the tape, add the 2nd pocket down, add the tape, add the 3rd pocket down, add the tape and then wrap it to the other side of the page. That would help to reinforce the bottoms of the pockets, as well. I just made a storage system similar, but with acetate pocets, and they are coming up, so i am going to redo it with the packing tape. Thanks so much for the idea!!

    • @ritajensen8311
      @ritajensen8311  2 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @alemapretsof
    @alemapretsof ปีที่แล้ว

    I love the fact that you have a double reinforced edge due to your folded over washi tape. Might a self-fold gusset give the space needed to remove the contents easier? Even if one added additional washi tape along the entire edge, (gusset included), it still would keep the integrity of strength needed for the top. TFS!

    • @ritajensen8311
      @ritajensen8311  ปีที่แล้ว

    I made a similar one awhile ago, but used cellotape along the bottom of the pockets. NOT a good idea, stuff slips down and gets stuck in the tape. Also found if you don't glue the sides stuff falls out all the time. Basic idea is fantastic though, and works super well. I need to make another one.

    Hi Rita! Thanks so much for a fun interpretation of one of Patricia’s ideas: I love it, a never-ending ephemera holder! I wondered if you use the kraft paper tape first & then added the vellum strips, if that would work well? You’d get more “real estate” on each row & it may lay flatter that way? I’ve watched Rachel (Roxy’s Creations) use more of it recently & it’s a nice look! I bought some of that tape recently, but haven’t used it yet, so I don’t know how easy it is to work with. Thanks so much for a wonderful video, I have “liked” & subscribed! Hope to see you again soon! Erica❤

    Completely pointless to destroy a book to make this craft. Simple scrap material would have sufficed: 2 pieces of cardboard, 2 pieces of thin foam or quilt batting, 2 scrap cloths or wallpaper or drawer paper, 2 pieces of scrapbook paper, and glue to bind it all would have done the same thing.
    My Mother raised me to respect and honor books...to never write on or dogear pages, to never break their spines by leaving them open facedown, to never cut them, and to never lend a book to a friend, but rather gift it instead (for a lent book never returned bites upon a friendship).
    She taught me the joy of reading, and the salvation of reading in dark times, and how a book can teach you anything and everything you ever need or want to know or learn as a human. A book can inspire, heal, and certainly they can save your life. The Good Book is the greatest gift from God.
    My Mother is long dead, but books keep her with me, and I teach my daughters the same and explain to them how I am forever grateful for this gift she taught me.
    Your craft is beautiful, and ironically sad that you probably learned much of your art from books, or from others who learned from books. Yet your disrespect of that book is simply unworthy of you.
    Such a shame.
    For the curious:
    The book destroyed here is titled "Hand Lettering for Crafts" by Sandra Salamony, Rockport, 2001, ISBN: 1610594207
    How do I know? I learned video and photo investigation and internet researching techniques from a couple of books I once read...All it took was her flipping to a part of one page in that mutilated book for me to research and track it down.
    Anything can be learned from a book. So treat them well...
