I’m a grungy kind of gal, This is right up my alley. Loving this ❤️❤️❤️
I, too, remember burning paper crafts in the 70's Gayle! I really like that prescription bag ephemera!
I love doing that inking with black edges and gathered twigs! Journal is looking great!
Love the faux burn look! That book page pocket was lovely! Thank for sharing.
These pages are coming along nicely. Love the process. 😻💕
Hi, Gayle! I also used to burn the edges of my artwork in the 70’s. I have one right here but I don’t know how to share it. All the burned edges have worn off in all these years. Too funny! Love listening to you and how you laugh at yourself. Thank you for all you do for us!
Like the added touch of black and your little tags are cute
I love this journal thanks for the brown and black tip. 😊
Grunge is so fun!
At the beginning of this journal I thought, hmmm not my cup of tea, but I must admit I like it!
I just love your videos!!! Thank you for sharing.
me too Gayle lol - i was probably in junior high - my dad cut down a tree and cut me some thin slivers of wood from a smaller branch - stained the wood - torn the edges around some cards i had - yep burned them to give the aged look and varnished them onto the wood pieces - my parents (bless their hearts) proudly hung them in a beautiful arrangement on the den wall - i still have them - made my very first scrapbook in 5th grade to hold all of my elementary school graduation cards and letters - thanks for the fun memories 🤗🤗i love this grungy journal and i love what you did today - be well Gayle xx
Love the TIM HOLTZ little people great job i enjoy you vidios
The coffee ☕️ stain stencil is one of my favorites. Hugs 🤗 from North Carolina
Love your edges! ❄️❤️❄️🇨🇦
Hi Gayle!
Your grungy journal is turning out great, love the use of your prescription bag. Good luck relocating your blankets, we never have enough closet space. 🤔 Hope your week is going good so far, take care! 💜
I love the tags with the little people. Adorable! And the black on the edges is a great addition - and no flames involved!
I have had a perfect morning. It is lightly raining, the sky is a soggy gray blanket, and I got to watch another episode of gorgeous grunginess unfold as I sipped cinnamon tea and stayed cozy in my chair. Thank you for adding to the pleasure of my day.
Good Morning Gayle! ☃
Morning Ess! ❤️
Thank you
I was thinking about punching the holes. If you did it with the front page by going from the back, you’d have a rough idea where the original holes are for the rest of the pages. Love the blackening of the edges. What s difference it mad!
An Gale you're a joy to watch and listen to, love everything you do❤❤❤
I fairly routinely use Vintage Photo then use Ground Espresso on the edge and sometimes Brushed Corduroy over the entire thing if it needs a little aging because it's too white . I am a distress nut, I know. But I love creating a beautifully blended age to almost everything. Grunge is my go to!
I think your process sounds absolutely yummy!! 😍❤️
My mother used to do that for pictures. I still have the ones she did for me. They are some of my most treasured possessions. Thanks for that mini trip down memory lane.
I told myself “I’ll do my housework AFTER I visit with Gayle”. Beautiful additions to the gorgeously grungy project. Now, my kitchen is waiting for me. 😝🥰❤️
Yay! So happy I come before housework! 😂😘❤️
You have your priorities straight 😜
Always a pleasure to watch you do your grungy journal ❣️ Hope you are doing well and staying safe, hugs 🤗
I am loving watching this journal come to life, keep up the good work!
Don't stress yourself trying to make so many videos for us. remember it's 2022 "Play" and be happy!
I’m not stressed at all! I want to create and make videos! 😁👍❤️
Yes, back in the 70’s I was into quilling big time. I was quilling wedding invitations and I would coerce my husband into smoking a cigar so I could use it to burn the edges of the invitation. It worked beautifully (cough, cough! ) But inking is sooooo much better. Such a great memory resurrected! Thank you, Gayle!
Back in 1975, for a wedding gift, someone took out invitation, separated some of the elements, burned the edges and attached to a plank of stained wood! I’m very familiar with that era of crafting! Still have it! Thanks for all you do!

I did that for a nieces wedding gift, attached it to a wooden plate. They're still married! But don't know if she still has it.
@@karenbauer5650 Fun! We are working on 47 years in June!
I so enjoy watching you play!! Thanks for bringing us along! 😍❤
Love episodes with the grungy journal. That rag paper is awesome!!
For the quite if some would fit into a trail box, like garment moving boxes..then you'd simply pull the box out...just an idea...😊
Awesome as always! Extra grunge…hysterical! You make everyday brighter 💕😂🤩
Good morning! Love the new grunge with the black! Thanks for sharing! Blessings! 💕
I am enjoying you creating your grungy journal. You se so happy and content doing so.xxx
I love the grungy look of this journal. Thanks so much for sharing.
I remember decoupaging book page flowers to wood plaques back then, mixing glue with water and applying many, many coats of it. I think my Dad my still have one that I made back then in the attic. Loving this grungy journal, I am enjoying watching you decorate your pages. Thanks for the memory and sharing.
Today as you worked in your grungy journal and chatted with us you reminded me of a dear memory. My husband and I used to be Scout leaders and we designed a challenging and wonderful scavenger/ treasure hunt for the youth year end party. The maps we made were all distressed with mud and tea stained to make them look old. We also burnt the edges for extra effects. We did not have Tim's distress inks in those days. Gosh it was fun and the youth loved it.
As I watched you distress your journal these memories came back and made me so happy. Thanks Gayle for reminding me of joyful times. Too bad it isn't Spring as you could take your journal outside and rub some mud on the pages. Nothing says grunge like dried mud. Hugs. Cathy
That looks really good. Love the black around the edges. This is sure safer than burning!! Thanks for sharing.
On the Itty bitty tags I was thinking some grungy stamps or ink splatters would finish them off.
It was so comforting to hear your familiar voice after such a tough day...thank you my friend for being there!! ❤🤗 You always make my day, but especially today while I'm caring for my very sick furry baby!!
Oh sweetie, I’m sorry your fur baby is sick. I’ll say some prayers for you both. 🙏❤️
@@gayleagostinelli_ct Thank you for your prayers!! ❤🤗
I love this junk album. I also ink with 2 inks Enjoy yourself. This journal is big fun.
It was so clever to use the book page number on the little tags. I’m just starting with junk journaling, and don’t have a lot of supplies, but those numbers would be easily accessible.
I used to do the burning too, I would make treasure maps for my son. I would hide a little gift and it would be fun for him to go on a treasure hunt.
Good Morning Gayle. The Grungy Journal is coming out great. ❤️
Morning Edie! ❤️
Gayle,
If your looking for tiny numbers remember you have the artiste kit from Shannon and in it, there were tiny number stamps for the kit.
I really like how the page edges make the grunge journal have a personality all it’s own. The mix of distress oxides or inks is really making the pages authentic.
With my cards and stationary I wanted to make look old and antique with burned edges I used a black soot stamp pad and took the pad itself around the edges or stained them with a chocolate brown alcohol ink, which works beautifully on any type of coffee dyed or tea stained paper, especially if the edges are torn.
I hope you guys are staying warm and tucked in. Our weather here is changing nasty quickly.
Love ❤️ hugs 🤗 always.
I used to do the same with the dges of birch bark. Burn around the outer edge thw use a burnt stick(charcoal) to write quote on for packages. Gotta love sleep away summer camp.
Hi Gayle 🖐🏻🖐🏻 I’m so grad that I get to help you. And also Japanese book is open from right to left. ( oppose ways) so if I had to make journal for my sister, then journal’s front cover will be the other side.. when I made my sister a bible cover 7 years ago she called me said “ you had to make front cover to the other side!! “ so I had to make it again to correct . Lol 😂 🤣
Love the page with the quad+ pocket!! Great journal so far Gayle. Hugs, Amy❤️❤️❤️
Hello again, Gayle! I'm just loving all of the new mixed media stuff you are doing. I really enjoyed the work you did on the wallpaper sample to make the cover for some new journals. My husband had just purchased some mixed ephemera from an auction and in the goodies was a partial wallpaper sample book. I knew I could use them for covers but I never thought about covering them with mixed media first. Wow! That was a real game changer for me, and I loved how your wallpaper came out. The stenciling was just gorgeous! Thank you so much for sharing all the great inspiration!
Peg Z.
Are you planning on selling this grungy book or the other that’s not together yet? If so instant message me please. You are a seasoned crafter and it shows, you really put a lot of thought into everything and are a great inspiration. I could look at the book periodically for inspiration 😊
Your distressed hole re- enforcers....I took a small script stamp and stamped in black. Another fun thing to do with them. I am going to try your 6X6 4 pocket and lil tags ephemera with the Tim Holts pad and coffee dyed tags this after noon. It looks so cute and so fun.
A rubber stamped number or letter could be added to the T H little people tags.
Crafting with my grandmother, she would burn paper as well. I was NEVER aloud to do that! Probably because I was 10 to 11 years old! Love grunge. I'm working on a man's grungy journal right now.
I love this! My mom used to burn edges of things before decoupaging.
Good morning 🌄 sweet friend, this Journal is so wonderful!! I loved burning paper back in the day. Namesta ✌️🕉️🐞
Wasn’t it fun? I’m surprised I didn’t burn down the house! 😳😂❤️
@@gayleagostinelli_ct 😂😂
This is coming out awesome!!
❤️😊❤️
Good morning sweet friend 💛
Morning Lori! ❤️

Hello my friend, I have wondered if when you're working at your desk but not videoing, do you talk to us as if we are videoing!! I know I talk to myself (but pretend it's to the dog) all the time whilst crafting.
Sorry I haven't been in touch much lately, I have Fibromyalgia and have had some down days, but still love your videos. Xxx
I love this project. I learned the burnt technique back in 2000 and have been using it since. It is probably one of my favorites. I even remember who taught me - #Lois Douglass - she had a LSS in Frankfort, Kentucky. It is also where I began altered books 📚. Enjoy
When I first started watching videos about 4 years ago, I saw someone doing a flip through and I remember thinking, "Are these people actually burning paper." - that was before I heard of Tim Holtz or Vintage Photo, but man that paper sure looked burned - Hugs.
Good morning Gayle 💜
Morning Denise! ❤️
I find the color from the makeup sponges contaminates the ink color. I’ve stopped using them….but need to figure out how to use them in another way, since I still have a few unused ones. (The walnut stain discoloration). 💕
So agree! I think stenciling with paint is how I’m going to use mine. 👍❤️
Gayle please could you tell me which video has the making of the lovely four pocket pocket I love it. Thank you for another great video. Please be careful with your hands I had one hand rebuilt in 2019 and had the second one done last November it takes six months to be able to use them it’s v frustrating I over used and abused my hands so much years of hand quilting for hours in end in fact days on end hand wheeling my chair so please take care listen to your body, lecture over sorry much love xxx
I made it
Good Morning Vicki! 😁❤️
I just saw you using reinforcements. The first call I took at my office supply office was for the little round things that you put on holes. I was surprised that I knew what she wanted 🤣
😂🤣❤️
I can never think of reinforcements and I always just call them hole protectors, that kind of sounds like a chastity belt.
@@LynsAlteredArts oh my gosh, you crack me up, my friend! 😂🤣❤️
You don't want to know the nickname we had for them in the military 😂
Maybe with the tiny tags in the 4 pocket ephemera piece just stamp a small image on each tag?
❤️
You need to store your quilts, how often do you need to shut off the water, once every couple of years maybe? He’s only thinking of it now because of the bathroom repairs. Water shut offs where I live are all outside, maybe it’s because we don’t have snow, I’ve never heard of one being inside, that would be so much more convenient.
Can you put the quilts in a nice basket so all Mike has to do is pull the basket out of the way?
Hi, Gayle. Do you have a playlist going for the Book of Wonders grunge journal? I don't remember seeing where that cover and pages were started.
If you search Gayle Agostinelli Grungy Journal, all the videos will come up. ❤️
I think this journal might need some bees wax in it! Get to playing my friend!! I love the burnt look!
Oh, I think you’re right, my friend! Love me some bees wax…and it’s been way too long since I used it!! 👍❤️
@@gayleagostinelli_ct and it adds easy grunge
Hello, I read your comment and enjoyed the image you created. Could you please tell me how to make cinnamon tea. It sounds delicious but I have never made it and do not know how. Thank you - Janice
CinnamonT (short for Cinnamon Toast) is the name of my Etsy shop. I have no idea how to make cinnamon tea. 😂❤️
Good morning Gayle!! I had to laugh when you said you had to clean out your quilts!! My daughter asked me this weekend what I was going to do with my antique quilts. She wants the 10 boxes full of quilts out of her closet. When we downsized and moved here 5 years ago, I carefully packed them with archival tissue paper in archival boxes I found on Amazon. I'm still sorting thru them and will be listing some on my Etsy shop. But it's hard because it took me years to build my collection and I love all of them!! 🤗 I really enjoy watching this journal come together. It's so fun to see everything you add!! Have an awesome day...💜
Oh geez, let me know when you list them!! 🤗❤️
I will. 😁 Still trying to figure out pricing and how to ship them. 💜
I read someone else’s comment - how would u use beeswax in this journal - I never did that before?
I’ll do a video soon. ❤️
I can’t find the tiny tim people! Where did you purchase them?
They are old. I’m not sure that he makes them any more. 😞❤️
Hi, what is rag paper? Where do you find it??
Search rag paper on Etsy. Lots of sellers! I’m no expert, but I believe it’s paper that has fabric fibers in it. ❤️
