I love watching you work in your journal! I will be watching the rest of them.
It is truly amazing how you create something so beautiful with bits and pieces. I find it difficult to do, but I guess that you've been doing it for a while, maybe it's just a matter of practicing. Anyways, beautiful and inspiring as always!
Andrea Valencia thank you so much, I just do whatever looks nice to me and try not to overthink the process! X
I love how you included the flower, so Creative. makes me wish my kids were little again to bring me a flower like that. so cute
how on earth do you tear up little scraps, rough cut shapes, put clashing unmatched tapes on the same page, not measure anything, staple it, glue it and plonk it just anywhere... and make it look so whimsically beautiful???
I'm just like... 😵????
I go nuts if things aren't lined up precisely, matted and layered with colour coordinating papers, add tapes or ribbons so straight you could cut your fingers on them... and I still doubt everything I make and think it's not good enough!
I've tried to just throw something together and have torn edges rather than cut, doodled on and overlapping... and it looks like a hot mess from a toddler's play group! 😰
I had to subscribe! I am amazed you could make something so beautiful from such basic items and no precision!!!!
S. 224 I do agree! however I am also very creative but just cannot work without struggling with "randomness" no matter how hard I try! if I throw things down they look like they were thrown in the trash! if I make a tiny mistake it will ruin the whole thing for me unless I fix it because I know it's there! ideas, layouts, designs, trying new techniques, the quality of the finished item etc is always of a good standard and not just a basic beginner standard, but I just cannot for the life of me just throw something together and it just happens to be good! I've been making things since I was a toddler and have been upcycling for almost as long as that...and not just because it's fashionable to do so, I look at everything and see something else it can become! but the ability to be able to go with the flow or not think too much about it.... totally eludes me! I could make this exact same spread in the exact same way, but I'd never think it was beautiful if I'd done it. I can see and appreciate the beauty of this, but I can't do it! aaarrrggghhh!!! 😊
I'm with you Tami. Love Johanna's books but I fail at random.
Tami Elizabeth Allaway thank you so much 😊 I really just think it's about your mindset. When i'm journalling it is very carefree and there is almost zero focus on the finished page- to me it's really just enjoying the process and having fun! There is no pressure on myself whatsoever to create something that looks amazing, because it's MY journal! yes it's fun to make it pretty, but it doesn't matter if it isn't! Now with my handmade books, that's another story! they take many many hours to get them 'perfect.' So I totally get wanting perfection when it comes to some things in art! I guess I change my approach depending on the project
Tami Elizabeth Allaway her free spirited personality is probably a huge help as well. I admire Johanna’s process so much! Hardly ever do I find many unique to their own junk journal artists. It’s always so refreshing to find someone who takes a different approach. Someone who stands out from the rest if you will. :)
Hi Johanne love your 2nd pages. So beautiful and what a great way to keep memories and souvenirs. xo Francine
Great ideas! Im a mad scrapper and journal maker. You have inspired me to use my photos in a journal instead of large layouts. Thank you x
Hello!! I just want to say thank you for your entire channel in general because it has inspired me so much to journal more. And lately I've been watching your videos while journaling and I also was inspired to make my mom a journal for mother's day and currently I've been working on making myself a journal!!! :) Thank you again and love your videos!!!!!! :)
I love watching you put pages together! I don't understand how anybody could put thumbs down, that's just plain mean, maybe they are just jealous of you. Anyway these were awesome pages!!
Such a beautiful page to celebrate mothers day 😍
you are so inspiring...you have inspired my little sister to make journals like yours. she is a big fan of yours
Hello Ms Johanna!! I just wanted to say how much of an inspiration you have been to my crafting. I absolutely love your style and creativity!! I was wondering if you wouldn't mind pointing me in the right direction for finding such wonderful vintage pieces? Specifically book pages and ephemera? I just found out I am expecting my first baby!! So I'm looking to make a pregnancy journal and incorporate some vintage pieces, any help would be so wonderful on where to find good pieces. Many many blessings to you and your family!
Incredibly beautiful!!!
Love love!! I love the idea of the acetate window with the flower, so beautiful!!!
I think process videos are the best and I enjoyed watching this one thanks for the inspiration girly hugs Janet
Great spread with all the added items. You really do a lovely job!
Johanna this is so inspirational, love your style and the flower window tip in page is genius TFS
Every single time I watch one of your videos, I am inspired and want to go work in my junk journal! You are just so good at making it all come together!
I can't get enough of your journals - so inspiring. Beautiful as always. Thank you for sharing.
SO LOVE YOUR JOURNALS AND VIDEOS.
I love your style of junk journals and have been binge watching your videos! I have just started a basic journal from scratch myself as I was inspired. Love the community you guys have in Aus, hopefully I would find some junk journal lovers as well in the UK! :)
Johanna Love the window idea! How lovely it turns out! Your idea is always fresh and creative.
You are an amazing talented artist! Love watching you make these beautiful page creations!! Thank you SO much for making these videos.
I'm making lunch and watching one of the videos. I'm already addicted. Kkkk 😍😍😍😍
I absolutely love your videos, I find myself checking in frequently for possible updates! Thanks for sharing

I think I may have mentioned this in a previous comment, up I would have never thought of using junk mail. Great idea. I also love the fact that you painted it. Well done. 😃🤗🌴💙🌷💛🌻💜😃🤗🌴💙
love it, like how you make a page. thanks for sharing
I absolutely adore your journaling! It's very inspiring and gives me a lot of ideas for making birthday cards for my friends and family which I usually make journal-stye. Seriously, thanks so much for these beautiful videos!
Really enjoyed looking forward to more :)
Yay I live for your videos🎉😘
Yas23 same
BEAUTIFUL JOHANNA.
I love the window you made! I'm excited to try this with some pressed ferns or flowers
Awesome! Can't wait for ep. 3! Like always love your creativity! ♡♡♡
So inspiring, thanks for sharing!
Absolutely beautiful and amazing
Love this tuto, really appreciated it is well explain and inspired me totry for a Journal..
love how you use your junk journals. thanks for the inspiration
Beautiful and full of lovely ideas, as always!
Yay! awesome process video, i love your journaling style.
Awesome video! Very inspiring. I really enjoy watching your process. Thanks!!
Re the glue stick, my husband brought home PaperMate Glue Stix for me to try and it's brilliant. It's much better than the Bostik or Uhu ones. Stuff that wouldn't stick for me now does so I'm happy :D Not sure which but it's from either Coles or Woolies. I love keeping those windowed envelopes too.
Lovely video! Your inspire me to start a junk journal. :))
You're kids are adorable.
BritJ 1995 thank you 😊
Looks great! Thanks for the tip on what page to do next. Think I would be afraid I would end up with the
wrong amount of space in between LOs but guess that can be fixed with tip-ins and washi:)
Tracy Zook i don't really look at it that way, any space that's left inbetween can always be filled with something 😊
Really enjoy watching you create. TFS 🌺 Elizabeth
love it tfs
I adore the weed window ❤❤❤
Absolutely gorgeous tfs
Very neat entries. tfs
Yay this is my favourite series you do :D
I like your style! tfs, this is beautiful.
Never thought of pressed flowers they seem to go with journals too x
so lovely.
Very pretty! ^^
Love it! I love watching you! :) ♡ TFS! :)
Beautiful journal!❤ love watching the process, starting to make more sense of how to do it, lol! Would also to see the yellow fabric one that is all embellished already and was going to be mainly for writing. Are there any more videos on that one!? Are you still using it? 💕
JoAnn Hohl hey Joann, no I haven't done an updated video on the writing journal, i do still use it just for writing but it is really my most 'personal' journal where it is the most unfiltered so I would be more reluctant to show my written entries however I might do some kind of update where you can see how I use those pages for writing xx
I love your channel so much!
it inspiring me")
okay i'm definitely saving my envelopes for journaling. love the spread! x
Do you ever do Journal flip throughs? I am extremely visual and would love to see more of the book you are working in.
Beautiful ❤️ The laminated flower is so precious! I love it!!!
Each one of your videos is super inspiring. Do you mind me asking what pen you recommend for writing? I'm struggling to find the perfect one. Thank you xxx
I just love your process, and that thick washi! Where did you get it? Its exactly what i've been looking for. Also love what you did with the flower! So creative!
Liz thepaperproject it's Mt tape 'encyclopaedia plants' probably my favourite ever! Going to need a new roll soon 😅 thank you Liz xx
So inspiring!
Shannon Green well look who it is! I've been binge watching your channel the past few days! 😄 thank you lady! X
How funny, I've been binge watching you too! :)
I absolutely love this. You inspire me so much! I'm actually in the process of making my own but it's kinda an art/junk journal. I'm trying to keep reminding myself that you've been doing this for a bit and this is my first one so it won't be perfect!
Random question tho, how do you hold your phone like that to film? Idk if your using your phone here but I think I remember in one of your videos you saying you used your phone. Anywho amazing job I absolutely love it.
I just love ur ideas.....can u tell us from where u got those tapes and other creative things...
I love seeing your process. The flower in the acetate is such a great idea. The spread is very nice. Do you date your pages even though you don't put them in any kind of order?
phennec i don't always date! sometimes i'll date my writing or sometimes i'll just date a photograph but a lot of the time the page is an eclectic mix of things from a period of a week or so- so if dating doesn't seem so truthful for the entire page i'll just leave it undated x
Window envelope got me thinking. So, do you have a lot of supplies? Keep thinking I should save things but we get a lot of junk mail and just
the ephemera from vacations/life in general seem to pile up, become clutter instead of getting used. How do you keep your
supplies under control?
Tracy Zook hi Tracy! I recently put up a craft room tour and a video of my favourite journalling supplies which goes into detail about how I keep my supplies under control- but basically I have a smaller amount of journalling supplies by me to choose from, kept seperate from the rest of my stash. Since I make handmade journals for etsy, I do have a pretty nice collection of supplies so I find it much easier to have a small selection for my personal use. The ephemera I keep from life does pile up, but if you can journal atleast once a week it keeps it at a pretty manageable level! X
DID YOU STICK IN THE BACKGROUND PAPER IM JUST WONDERING BECAUSE I REALLY LIKE IT AND IM HOPING TO BUY A JUNK JOURNAL BECAUSE YOUR SERIES HAS REALLY INSPIRED ME THANK YOU XXX
💖💖💖💖💖🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
just a quick question: would you recommend buying a journal with a spiral binder? or do you think it disrupts the flow of the page too much? would love to hear your thoughts!
Tess W it purely depends on how you journal, i personally would only really choose a spiral bound book for writing because I know my creative journalling would get too bulky for that kind of binding, just depends!
Where do you get your stickers from? They are awesome!
BIG thanks to Shannon Green for leading me to you. Carol Martine
hi,
where did you get your tapes from?:)
mj5fly i get my tapes mostly from etsy, ali express, ebay or in stores :)
What size is your journal?
I'm such a kpop /bts trash...i read junk and clicked coz i thought it was something about junkook😂😂then realized how big of a trash I really am😂😂😂
I can tell you're addicted to washi tapes just like me😁
