When the creative juices are flowing, it's impossible to be organized! It's beautiful!
Ooh la la! Look at your hoarded treasures!! Squeeeeee! I, for one, can appreciate your ‘lack’(?) of organization, the need to move to go get something. Isn’t that how we all work, pretty much? I really would feel restricted if I had to only work with what I first chose - as ideas and inspiration strike unexpectedly.
Thanks for sharing your process and ideas and all the glory of your creativity. Hugs 🤗
Cynthia Roberts it is impossible for me 😆! Thank you so much 😊
When you’re in the middle of creating you don’t know what you’ll need! I loved hearing you think this project through, it was eavesdropping on a work in progress. Wonderful. Thank you so much Rachel, if you lived in the U.K. I’d beat a path to your door!! Stay safe and well, 😊💕
sara richards that would be so mucche fun! Thank you so much 😊
Oh my goodness. You just get up all you want!! Crafting should have a natural flow, not a rigid schedule. I say if someone wants to pay for a tutorial, then they may be entitled to have some organization. However, when someone is giving their time/ideas freely, then one should just appreciate the time & effort that goes into making videos & content. Rant over 😊 Most of us really appreciate your creativity & time!!
Whitney Kosters Perfectly said I totally agree with you
Ditto I am always up and down when crafting.
Exactly. I struggle with finding the perfect element and I feel just like Rachel does with decisions. She’s giving her time for all of us and I just enjoy watching her. Well said Whitney.
I agree, I can’t think of what I need until I start and know what direction I’m headed in. Thank you so much 😊
I’m amazed at the cheek of some people!!!! Your process is what we watch for and just don’t watch if it annoys you. No need to be unkind!! Anyway hon it’s looking beautiful! Such a lovely collection you have. 🙂❤️🇦🇺xxx
Oz Jan thank you so much 😊! I sent you a message on Etsy. Hugs Rachel
What a beautiful elegant cover made with old and cherished things. Love it! As I always say… do it your way when you are being creative, you aren’t doing a teaching tutorial that someone is paying for so no one has the right to comment on you process. You are fabulous just the way you are. Be you! Enjoy! Have lots of fun! 😊🌸😊
Laurette Chandler thank you so much 😊
I know that I most enjoy the times that you are spontaneous and creative at the same time, ! It's not really a tutorial or a lesson. We are invited into your craft room to see you create! Thanks for sharing with us! This is looking beautiful!😍😍
karen lewis thank you so much 😊
I absolutely love watching your process! The ups and downs, auditioning pieces, thinking, looking, and all the mess! It actually helps me be a bit more open to just letting things come to me when they do, instead of planning ahead. Do Not let anyone pass judgement on you!!!!! I hear you always defending yourself, and I think it's appauling that some have created this need to defend in such a beautiful, sweet, and gifted soul as you.
Thank you so much!
Hi Rachel, please don't worry about what people say, we are all well most of us are so grateful that you are kind enough to share your wonderful gift of creativity with us. I am so enjoying this cover, you always inspire me. Thank you so much, I can't wait to see what you will do with this journal. Xx
Lita Walters thank you so much 😊
I love it when you pop off it makes you normal it doesn’t deter from the beautiful things and you make and give your time freely .x
Jaqui Jean thank you so much 😊
It doesn’t bother me at all that you aren’t organized. It’s part of your charm. You keep doing things your way!
Jet Wasik thank you so much 😊
Rachel, your videos are never bodgey. We love you and enjoy everything you do! Don’t listen to the chronic complainers!
Sheila Y thank you so much 😊
I'm so excited to watch this journal come together, you have the most beautiful things. It's also so fun to hear your thought process. I'm kind of a messy housekeeper but my lovely mom used to say "you can either have a clean house or you can have fun - you choose to have fun". I wish I could do both but at least fun is better.
Donna K in MN oh i love your mum’s saying! I’m going to write that one down! I choose FUN! Thank you so much 😊
I love watching you create. Get up as much as you need to.
Thank you so much!
Hi Rachel.
I love watching your process. That dove was perfect!
Please don’t give credit to the negative, critical people. Do you. It’s nothing to do with disorganization. It’s creative process, plus, we can’t all have every single piece within arms reach! Any crafter knows that.
We’ve had really hot temps, high humidity, and rain storms ever day for a week! Stay safe and dry.
Martha Manigross stay cool! Thank you so much 😊
If you plan, it’s not as natural as it is with how you do it. Keep doing things the way you have been, we all love your work and don’t mind how you do it. On the contrary it tells us that you are natural and go through the same things we all do.
Betty Alvarez thank you so much ☺️
Who are these people who give you nasty advice?! 😆 I love watching you work. You are a fearless crafter. It takes me eons to work up the courage to cut anything vintage. I am grateful for every video you post. Do what you want!
Paula DeVoy I just think if I bought it to use it’s better than keeping it in a drawer or box! That being said I do hoard some things for a while before deciding to use them😆! Thank you so much 😊
Rachel you are an inspiration to me, I am almost 79 and have been hoarding treasures for years...this COVID has me staying home and creating with what I have and enjoy...journals give me the opportunity to use and store paper items I have in boxes...my idea is to have journals full of loved items that I know where they are and not leave them all in boxes...it is because of you and many others that share on TH-cam that I enjoy my stash at this time of being alone and safe...thank you and just keep being you💕love from Minnesota💕
jeannie ferdinande that’s a great idea! I also think if it’s made up into something the family are less likely to want to sell it😁! Lulu told me she’s going to have stall with all my stuff that’s not made into something 😳! Better get making! Thank you so much 😊
Roxy Creations you are very welcome 💕
In the words of a Welsh friend, tell those rude people to “bugger off.” You cannot stymie your creative flow. I now know what to do with all the antique lace I bought over 25 years ago that is sitting in a drawer. I think it was last week that you said that one should not hoard their treasurers, but use them. I will be sewing my old laces and trims to make a journal! Thanks for the inspiration. Hugs, Susan
Susan Ettl you are going to have so much fun! You’ll be able to enjoy them more when you are done! Thank you so much 😊
Creativity or organization? Creativity wins all the time. TFS these gorgeous lace journals. Looking forward to your next creative session. 🦋💖😎💛🌼
Elizabeth Malone'Orlando thank you so much 😊
I'm happy to hear you don't cut up the more precious items. I rummage through the boxes at antique stores and find beautiful hand stitched hankies and doilies that I sew on my sweaters and tops. I try not to cut them and just add ribbons and buttons. Old lace is a rare find and it's very, very expensive here in the US.
Thank you so much!
Now don't you dare get up and get that paintbrush!!!!!, really!!!!! Oh my do not believe that someone said not to get up and be more organised to you Rachel. You just get up all you want girl. Even if you got up and down 100 times I would still watch and listen to you. You are such a storyteller and I love how you share your personal experiences with us. And besides all that you are just one fantastic artiste. The cover is just fantastic. You always inspire me. Thank You for sharing with us lucky lucky ladies x
Julie Moore thank you so much 😊
Love this. You are just the berries. Your channel is great. Watched all 100 days.
wanda brush thank you so much 😊
Love your journal cover with multiple laces. Rachel, please don’t let your views intimidate you about taking time to look for supplies. You are creating and may need to get just special piece to make it better. I don’t mind at all to waiting for you. Thank you for sharing 🤗
Marilyn Torsch thank you so much 😊
Sweet Rachel. Love you and love your mess. Please don’t worry and don’t change. Love your work,truly inspire me.❤️
JoGil St-Jean thank you so much 😊
I’m always stunned to hear that you lovely youtubers who share your time, knowledge, and hard work with us for FREE get negative comments like you should be more organized. The nerve! Next time, you can let them know you’ll refund their subscription fee. 😀
Amy Roswick hahaha 🤣 that really cracked me up, love it 🥰! Thank you so much 😊
Love this project. Thank you for sharing all that you do to make your wonderful pieces
Chris Jerger thank you so much 😊
WOW!!! Out come the hoarded pieces we have not seen before- eye candy for us this morning!!! DELISH!!!
Brandy Thompson some of those music covers are gorgeous! They will be fabulous! Thank you so much 😊
This is lovely. I like to see you thought process evolving. This can’t be organised! I love you style. X
Alison Hutchings thank you so much 😊
Oh my, just perfect. Thankyou Rachel, I'm going to be brave and use my old laces. And craft along with you. Now to gather the stuff to go in it. 🤗🙏
kamali masters it’s really a lot of fun and a wonderful way to showcase them I think! Thank you so much 😊
Stop apologizing my friend....I love that you are a “jack in the box” crafter! It makes me feel less inept! No one can anticipate a creative idea...they just happen. Can’t be prepared in advance when creativity happens. Those are the best moments. Whitney Kosters said it very well.
Emily Hosford thank you so much ☺️
I love this project! I am not telling you off about anything. So no worries here, I am never organized about anything. Your laces are always so beautiful. Thanks for sharing😍🌴
Annette DePete you are always so lovely 😍! Thank you so much 😊
That handmade roseribbon is so gorgeous 😍😍 can’t imagine giving an inch away. So special! ❤️
Thank you 😊
It’s coming along beautifully Rachel! I love that you have all sorts of material around you, it always inspires me!
Sheila Bligh it fun to create from a wide range of goodies 😄. Thank you so much ☺️
Of course it will come together. You are doing your magic. It will be exquisite and I’ll be all drooling thinking why can’t I find stuff like that do I can make one. 🙄. But I’m happy for you have all your lovelies.
Sherry Rector I bet you have plenty of goodies you can use!
I really like watching how you choose the pieces and how it comes together with your incredible vision. I don't mind at all if you need to get up and down, you're an artist and you must follow what you think is best for your work!
Joan K thank you so much 😊
I already love this journal. Can hardly wait to see you finish it.
June Ribbons thank you so much 😊
Love seeing this process. It's beautiful! Please get up and down as much as you need to! ❤️🙏🏽😊
A Adele Smith thank you so much 😊
Roxy Creations You're welcome
Crikey people need to get over themselves, if you need to get up to get things you go ahead an do it, some people need to be great full for all the great videos you make.. Keep up the great work... 🤗
kel payne i so agree with you 😃! Thank you so much 😊
Love all your cherished laces,so gorgeous Rachel❤
SHEREE KARR thank you so much 😊
Gorgeous as always, Rachel! And inspiration to the max!! Love this and excited to watch you continue with it! Big hugs! ❤️
Gayle Agostinelli thanks so much! 🥰
Another lovely journal in the making! Love all the laces and trims you have to pick from. I just saw the video that Wendy posted of the journals you sent her. Love the little one, as I don't journal, but love to look at all the pages! Such inspiration!!!! Love the big one too!!!!
jennifer hartsfield thank you so much 😊
Gorgeous start....the bsse book cover is the root of all prettiness, Rachel. Will be front and center for next step. Hugs, Carol xo
Carol Martine thank you so much 😊
Every time I watch you I am inspired to create something like you are doing. A neighbor lady passed a whole lot of lace to my Mom who n turn passed it to me. It’s been in a drawer ever since and I never knew what to do with it. Now I know! When I work on a project I am always pondering what to do next or what piece of this or that I should use. So it’s nice to know you do the same. As always TFS! ❤️
Pam Botter I spend a whole lot of time pondering, lol! Thank you so much 😊
WOW! what a wonderful start. I would have the most difficult time using the antique items. Ugh! Negative comments tend to frustrate me, when I’m watching such beautiful work done by you. There will always be a Silly Mean Goose. Ha! Ha!
Bonnie Tracey oh I know they just come with the territory! Thank you so much 😊
I really enjoy watching you play with antique items. 💜💜💜
Sammi Jarrad thank you so much ☺️
Rachel, you get up as many times as you want, that is all part of the crafting process. Fancy people saying you should be more organised and stay put!! I absolutely love this lace cover. My favourite sort of cover definitely has to be fabric and lace 😀
Sarah Jane Wylde thank you so much 😊
So fun to watch your thoughts. I'm saying yes, that looks good. Oh, like that! I'm excited to watch how you are putting it together because I'm going to cover hard cover plain journals for Christmas gifts. I need ideas and you are inspiring me.
Thank you so much!
This is such a wonderful idea for a project. The old journals are amazing and I am sure that yours will turn out just as beautiful. I am looking forward to seeing what you create and to following every moment of the project.
By the way, the way you do things, whether other think it is disorganized or ...whatever...is just fine with me. I enjoy the honesty of your method and technique. It is genuine.
Take care.
JOBETH SEXTON'S Crafty Cauldron thank you so much 😊
Such beautiful laces! I bet your Aunt would love one of these and treasure it forever. tfs!
Joy Stone I think I will definitely make her one! Thank you so much 😊
@@roxycreations679 you are an especially kind and loving person.
Thank you, Rachel. My favorite videos of yours are stitching and fabric! =) It's so fun to see you sort through your stash. Your journals for Wendy are absolutely stunning!!
Anne McDonald thank you so much 😊! Wendy had to wait for ages for that, I kept getting side tracked 😆
Love it how you create "on the fly", that's truly a sign of an artist I think. This journal is looking gorgeous already. Enjoyed getting a peek at some of your trims especially from your auntie and your mum. Thank you for sharing.:)
Karen Bearden thank you so much 😊
I'm so glad you decided that it didn't matter if the books were antique or not. The point is they are beautiful and inspiring and you enjoy them. You have created several videos just from the inspiration it gave you. I'm so excited to see where this takes you. Your videos are great.
Amy Howard I was never too worried about but am curious😁! This is a fun project! Thank you so much 😊
@@roxycreations679 I'm sad you took the video down. I was getting a lot of creative ideas from your flip through. Enjoy your book they are so beautiful.
I could be surrounded with boxes of lace and fabric and the item I decide to use is in a box across the room. Creativity just flows. Your videos are good!
Thank you so much!
How wonderful that you are doing the lace journal! All the trims and laces are sure beautiful. Love all you've done so far.
Angela Thoma thank you so much 😊
Love where this journal is going. Best to you.
Thank you so much!!
Love watching you use your brush. 😉
Sherry Rector I know it😘
So beautiful..love the printed material on binding and a hour lovely material and lace...so awesome.
Cathie Spalding thank you so much 😊
I can't wait for Part 2! I have my cover done.
Marilyn Martin yay!
See, I lose things when I organize lol. And they say the truly creative people tend to be less organized. This is coming out truly gorgeous!
Sandra England i loose things too! Thank you so much 😊
This is going to be so fun! I'm glad that you seem to be able to shrug off negative comments; they are not worth wasting the energy fretting about them!
Neora Chana I just delete them so I eventually stop thinking about them😁! Thank you so much 😊
This is going to be so beautiful. Can’t wait to see the results tomorrow 🌸💝
Thank you so much 😊
Rachel, I love your channel but I just have to suggest to you, since you’re left handed, to put your glue on the left side of your project so you don’t have to reach across your work every time to load your brush. Life will be a whole lot easier for you and you won’t risk dropping glue on your project either. It will save you a little time as well. I have to remember to keep mine on the right side cause I’m right handed. 😍
Two Doves thank you so much 😊
I think this lace journal cover will be beautiful. Such a great idea. ❤️❤️
Patricia Ruppert thank you so much 😊
What a beautiful beginning to what will undoubtedly be a stunning work of art! And for the person who told you to be more organized, please post the link to their video so we can judge for ourselves how organized THEY are. Oh, they don't do videos - well, they should just keep their negative comments and criticisms to themselves.
Carol Sowell i so agree with you! Thank you so much 😊
So very pretty. Loved watching you create this cover. See you tomorrow. 💞🇨🇦🤗
Karen billinger thank you so much 😊
Spoiled for choice! I’m in the midst of trying to get control of my mess. Finding all sorts of things. This is looking awesome already.
Caron Wood thank you so much 😊
Great start...so many possibilities! This will be fun....
Kathryn Helm thank you so much 😊
This is the project I've been waiting for, ever since falling in love with the original journals you found. Goodness knows I have hoarded enough stuff to make a beautiful journal filled with my favourite things. I just have to be bold enough to use them ☺️
Hey Seaville thank you so much 😊! I’ll look forward to seeing your version 😄! I love your work! Thank you so much 😊
This is a gorgeous project Rachel, l just love old lace and trims, they are so beautiful. Tfs hugs Susanna xx
Susanna Easdale thank you so much 😊
So very beautiful...you have the most amazing treasures.
Cathie Spalding thank you so much 😊
Wow this is absolutely beautiful. This has inspired me to play with laces and trims. You make gorgeous journals and given me so many ideas. You’re full of inspiration. I’m a total beginner, never really made a journal before but this journal you featured is my style of journal. So Thank you so much for sharing and giving me some fantastic ideas. Hope you’re safe and well. Sending lots of love to u from
Australia 👍✌️🙏❤️
Thanks so much! 😊
I want to create a fabric/lace journal. Thank you for your inspiration
Susan Schultheis thank you so much 😊
Thanks again Rachel. Beautiful cover. It’s so difficult to make decisions. I thought if you put the brown in the middle, it may halve the look of length on the cover. But who am I, - I’m learning from you all the time! Love your lace. Very difficult to find old things here in W.A.🌷🌷
Eileen Thomas any suggestions are always welcome! Thank you so much 😊
why do people feel the need to leave mean/negative comments -- "organize yourself before starting the video" -- Being an antique myself, I personally love love love when you break out the vintage and antique fabrics, especially when it is spontaneous -- you're in the moment, moved by the spirit -- a memory of a little snippet that would be perfect for that spot -- also, I invite these folks to do just one video -- it's hard, I don't care how many you've done in the past -- camera angles , download times, stitching videos together -- sheesh !
3rscrafting JTB I know people feel so entitled to criticise! Thank you so much 😊
@@roxycreations679I got yo back, even if it's from across the ocean !!! Hope you guys have a lovely lovely time on your trip. I think about the only thing worse than you talking about your MIL's delicious cooking, is "holidaying in Tuscany." -- maybe you'll luck out and find someone having a little tuscan yard sale -- do you call them boot sales or something? I'm happy for you-all to be able to get away while you can. Covid #s are increasing here, and the governor of our state reinstated phase 1 rules back into the beach area. I spoke to the realtor, and the farmhouse is empty and still available, but I don't think we are "qualified renters" but the owners may be willing to relax some of the rules as opposed to it sitting empty month after month. Fingers crossed !! I just learned where that expression came from -- from early Christians it was a way of making the sign of the cross without being fed to the lions. Yep, that and ten bucks will get you overpriced coffee at Starbucks -- ha. Have a great great time.
@@roxycreations679 Oh, sorry -- I was talking to my friend who works in media and he told me that the "next phase" has already been distributed to all the media which owns the company where he works -- and they own all types of media: tv, radio, newspaper, small local tv stations across the country, some cable networks -- here in the US under a campaign called "Protect your Neighbor." It's first being aimed at the senior population and other households with "at risk" people -- people with chronic illness, lung issues, etc. -- and it made me think of you and that old lady at her gate yelling at you guys that you couldn't take a walk -- it's being rolled out as a way to care for at-risk populations, and what it really amounts to is spying on your neighbors -- I know it's expensive, but if I were you, I'd stock up on printer paper, ink and lots of that fabulous giotto glue -- here in the US, the company gorilla glue claims their glue sticks adhere to fabrics, so I'm going to give it a try -- but also, your pva glue works just as well as fabritac, etc. -- you could experiment, and I'm thinking I might this afternoon -- pour a little fingernail polish remover into your pva and do the experiment -- that is the only difference. Hugs, girlie -- don't let those beautiful Italian young men makes eyes at your beautiful daughter in what is one of the most beautiful places on earth -- !! Ha.
I got one of these covers in my paper packs- so I am watching the videos over again as I plan to play and make one of these myself!!
I hope you've started! Thank you so much!
@@roxycreations679 - LOL I am hoarding the paper now!!! What is wrong with me!! All the texture and beauty of it. I think I will still be able to make one- just going to make a minute. Also got a lead on some original little ephemera bits- like the sticker looking pieces you added...stay tuned- will know in a couple days if I can get my hands on them!! LOL
I love this so much! I have a friend getting married and I’d love to make her a similar one! Thank you!
Connie Wilkins that will be a lovely gift! Thank you so much 😊
Another marvellous project!!
giusi coluccia thank you so much 😊
That pink ribbon from your Mum is beautiful...I don't blame you for hoarding it. I hoard way too much stuff but being isolated with this C-19 thing has made me dig to the bottom and use stuff. Love your cover. Check out Mi Cottage Crafts for some over-the-top examples of fabric books....incredible!
I watch Jeanette she is wonderful 😍 Thank you so much!
My first thought was, who was mean to you! Rude! Then as you were putting down your favorites I thought, the hole that hasnt found a home! Hehe. Hugs Rachel and don't let those rude ppl get to you. Phft on them!
Kathleen Selig hahaha that poor hole😂! Thank you so much 😊
You do such amazing work. And from scratch know less! Love it.
Sandra Brown thank you so much 😊
loving this...need to find my laces
Nicky Parry thank you so much 😊
I’m not sure why people would complain, if they don’t like you getting up and down, then they shouldn’t be watching YOUR videos. I love all your projects and all your videos. 🙂
I agree! Thank you so much!
Love watching you think things through and the auditioning ❤️
Craftydawk. Janette Dawkins auditioning is fun😁! Thank you so much 😊
What a lovely creation. I Love your spontaneity.... no need to apologize. ❤️. I’m so very excited to get one started with the wonderful bits and bobs that I’ve been holding on to. I can’t wait for the next video. Thank you for sharing with us!
Thank you so much!

Lady M thank you so much 😊
Beautiful cover!

Val Pennycook get making! That way you can continue looking at them! Thank you so much 😊
This is starting out so beautiful. Blessings and Hugs 🤗
Susie's Craftroom thank you so much 😊

I hope I'll be able to find more treasures sometime! Thank you so much!

So fun to watch!
Sheri S thank you so much 😊
So beautiful!!! Appreciate you sharing your process😍 I don’t mind you needing to get up for supplies at all; how could you possibly know everything you’ll need?!
Sheri Maruca it’s impossible for me😆! Thank you so much 😊
Love love love this lace look 💕
Thanks so much! 😊
Love this so so beautiful!
Thank you so much!!
Just remember you can't please everyone, so don't try... do what you will!! How you create is different than how someone else creates. Whatever works for you! They can watch a different video if you aren't organized enough for them 😜😉
Thank you so much!
