Oh my Gayle, worry not about the bad words on the dollar store book pages. First of all I think most of us use them, so we know what is in them and second, there is no way we can see any words on the pages let alone spot a bad word. It's all good girly. I am excited to see how your accordion journal turns out. You have a blessed day!
That’s what one nasty comment from a viewer will do…make one forever self conscious about what they complained about. 🥴. I don’t know…maybe they used a magnifying glass. 😂. I can’t read the words either! ❤️
People are weird, if you have to pause the video, enlarge it, and get out your magnifying glass to look for something to be offended by then you’ve got more of a problem than a word on a page. Besides, it’s not like those words were aimed at her, nobody was calling her those words, well at least not in this incident, may be in her real life. 😝
I agree with all here Gayle. You are using book pages from numerous and varied books. Are you now supposed to go through and edit what is written on those pages? You should decipher the foreign languages, all the offensive terms and sexual references from dictionary pages, on and on to ridiculousness? If you were throwing out offensive language on your videos one would just move on. The overtly sensitive should do the same.
This video was fascinating to me because it was really the first one on an accordion journal that I have seen. What an interesting idea! I can't wait to watch you work on it. I agree with the other comments about apologizing for dollar store books. In actuality, I rarely see a contemporary best seller that does not include bad words. I think we should be kinder to dollar store books overall because they represent so many broken dreams in the writing community, and not always because they are subpar. I had a friend whose book ended up in the dollar bin only because it was unfortunately published the same month that another novel by a well established writer hit the shelves on the same subject and the advertising budget was massive. Years later, my friend's book beat the competition as a novel on Vietnam, and he went on to win international competitions with his fiction. I love giving dollar books, no matter the reason they became one, another chance to shine. So many hopes and dreams are tucked away inside their pages.
Interesting take on the Dollar Tree books. The only experience I’ve had with those books is because my cousin bought one to actually read and she read the whole thing and got to the end and the last pages were missing and she never found out how it came out. So, I think some of them end up there because of misprints.
Loved this scrappy Saturday Gayle. The accordion book is quite interesting. You always come up with a different project that stimulates, motivates and sparks ideas. Thank you for your enthusiasm. What makes this project so special are the neutral collage pages showcasing the vintage paper. Such a relaxing time with you in your craft room today. Thank you.
Oh I really love this idea. It’s nice because it’s not super complicated and intimidating. I can’t wait to watch what comes next. Thank you for being a wonderful inspiration as always.
Good Morning Gayle! I must have watch 20 videos doing accordion journals and just couldn’t get it. Like you say “hurts my brain” lol. You made the process so easy. Strip down the middle both sides, score and fold. Thank you for another great video for Scrappy Saturday ! 💕
Ooooo… What a fun style of journal this is Gayle!!! I really love concept and I’m looking forward to seeing how it all pops when you start adding ephemera to it!!! Another fabulous Scrappy Saturday!!! Thank you soo much for sharing!!! Big hugs, Sharon 🌷💕
What a great idea! Oh yes I am going to try this! I love all your cool ideas! A great way to use up some of those book pages from the altered book. I just always enjoy hanging out with you my friend!
that came out so pretty Gayle - why is it so relaxing to watch someone glue down paper 🤣i did watch Tina create hers also - these are wonderful little creations and i look forward to see what you do next - hope you have seen your squirrels run about - i have 6 that wait outside my kitchen door waiting for me to throw out some bread - but no one was around today - bitter cold and strong winds - hopefully they are all cuddled up in their nests 🤗thank you and be well xx
LOVED it! I made a simple version for a personal #junkjournaljanuary journal, but it is pretty wonky. I am going to try it this way next time. And I always love watching you collage... Oh, and thank you for saying "Hi and Hugs" to me today!
Hi Gayle, thanks for this. It makes SENSE!! I will definitely have a go now. Lots of ideas all of a sudden as inspiration strikes. Happy New Year sweet lady. We haven’t had real snowfall for a couple of years. It’s so lovely to hunker down when it’s snowing. Hugs from England x
Happy scrappy Saturday with a fun project, I would love to join in but I have to many unfinished projects. 😂 Love how its turning out and looking forward to what's next. Hope you have a nice weekend, take care! 💜
Mary is correct, it takes a lot to spot the bad words in book pages!! I mean are they reading it or watching the video? I watched it on my 55 inch TV and never noticed anything bad. I'm so excited to be visiting my favorite girl friend, who cares about the words on a page. Some people dig really deep to find things to complain about. LOL 😂 Amy also had a great comment it doesn't matter how many people I see make something when you make it it makes so much more sense to me. Your style of teaching just really simplifies it. Besides it's always more fun to learn when you're playing with a friend. Thank you for all you do for us. Sorry I didn't comment earlier I watched the video and then the antibiotics I'm on made me tired. Darn sinusitis and ear infections... Interrupting my Gayle time. Hope you and the family are all are well and everything is going perfect in your neck of the woods without any holes in your walls. Hope the grandkids won their games! 🐞✌️🕉️
Great video today! What a great project to use those antique handwritten ledger pages I sent you from my etsy shop in! I'm super excited to make one along with you. Thanks for showing! ❤️
hi i watch a lot but thought id comment today. im in uk, im ill in bed so thankyou for the much needed company and im loving how youve done this book. im going to try this xx
I have been dealing with a herniated disc the last four months where I can barely move. I too have been super grateful for Gayle everyday! I hope you get well soon❣️❣️❣️❣️
I think your squirrel took a vacation to S. California Gayle! 😄 For the first time in my 26 years of living in my house I have a squirrel in my backyard and he’s not shy lol. I love this idea, I have a Vanity Fair from the 1890’s that fell apart and is too delicate for most things but will do well in this project. And it has wonderful graphics and ads… I can’t wait to get started! Thank you so much for sharing and your wonderful inspiration.
I first saw this style of journal on MegJournals YT and then I started seeing it everywhere lol Even though I know it’s been around for ages. And Almost everyone makes them just a little different 😂 I think you and Barbara share some great tips on how to simplify the process, especially for those of us who have a hard time with which directions things are supposed to go 🤣🤣🤣 I’m about ready to make my 2nd accordion journal and I lab to use scraps like last time. I enjoy the different pages; they give me jumping off points for my collages. Thanx for your inspiration!
Hi Gayle!! This is an interesting project to undertake!! The neutrals are nice!! Will continue to watch to see the end result....very curious am I!! TFS!! Hugs, Liz:)
I’m all about this one! I’ve been on an accordion journal kick for a while, so this is right up my alley! You always put such a good spin on whatever you do! TFS!
Happy Scrappy Saturday! Great idea and it looks great. I’m looking forward to seeing how you attach the cover. I bet your snow is beautiful.❄️. Take care Miss Gayle! 👍🥰❤️
Fun idea with scraps. I have made smaller accordion journals but not regular size. I certainly have enough neutral scraps to do one. I am enjoying your “Play” year format. That means that your content is full of play and fun. Thanks.
Good Afternoon Gayle and Happy Scrappy Saturday! Your explanation of this accordion journal was great, easy peasy. Weather here today is very cold 20 degrees, great day to craft. Have a great weekend too. 👍☃️
Hello Gayle loving all the videos that you're doing which inspired me to do stuff I've not done any crafting for years now but since I've been watching these videos I've started again and I'm really enjoying it and I'm learning quite a lot from you guys thank you for uploading these videos and teaching us one thing or Another loving your stories that you come and tell us keep up the good work lots of love to you and your family
Good afternoon Gayle, I just realize I love the neutral collage best . I enjoyed watching you make this accordion. The coffee dyed paper on the middle of the page , great idea . Blessings to you & your family. ❤️❤️🩹❤️
Good morning Gayle. Yes, I have been seeing many accordion journals but none like yours. Charlotte Peterson did a couple recently that were cute but smaller and fussier. Looking forward to watching you put this together. Hope the plumber come back, lol. Take care and be safe. Hugs.
Yay! I love this! I have a 91 year old pen pal and I’m always looking for fun quick thing to make. I actually saw the finished product on your giveaway and with the use of a picture book it went together fast and fun! (My pen pal sends me something once a week so I have to work hard to keep up!)
Wow Gayle, Hello my crafty friend, this is going to be an awesome adventure. Love the idea of the accordian journal the way you are doing it. PLEASE let us see how you progress with it as it is going to be such an inspiration for us to see how it is REALLY done. Don't worry about the bad words, we don't even get to see what they are as we are so busy watching what you are doing. I hope your grandson does well in his wrestling match and your granddaughter with her basket ball, it is such fun to hear about your wonderful family. About the squirrels, don't they also hibernate in the winter time??? Anyhow, have a wonderful time with your hubby watching your grand children doing their sports. Blessings and hugs as always from Cape Town. Diana
Good morning, watching you collage is so relaxing. I’m exciting to see how you finish the journal. We got our 2” of snow last night. Of course, Kansas snow storms usually follow a few hours of rain so we get a sheet of ice under our snow. I just love the stillness that follows a snowstorm. Stay warm and cozy as you craft today. 🤗
Gayle, Thank you for simplifying the accordion process. Other methods didn’t seem as easy as yours. I absolutely love this process and definitely put this video in my tutorial folder. Scrappy Saturday I look forward to every week, it’s like the perfect Gayle-day for the weekend. 💜 Thank you for the joy and fun always. Hugs 🤗 We haven’t had any squirrels either in Huntley Gayle. Your right it is very odd, even our rabbit population is almost zero too. We have bats tho up in the eaves of the house nesting but other small animals are hard to find.
Everything you do n make gayle works , why did u think this wouldn't you inspire so many ppl including me n yet u doubt urself It worked my friend I never doubted it well done xx
This looks like so much fun. I love the neutral collage. Looking forward to see how this goes. I wish we could have some of the snow you’re getting. We had high winds blowing in a cold front yesterday and we just has dust! Brown skies, not white.
We are FINALLY going to get some snow on Sunday evening into Monday morning!!! First measurable snowfall for the year in Columbus, Ohio! Love this project!
Good morning Gayle! What a fun and different idea. I missed this on Tina's channel. So far behind on watching other channels!! Have an awesome Saturday..💜
There are people that literally look for things to criticize others about, they’re insecure and jealous people. Sad people. I can relate to you worrying about your squirrels, I worry if all my birds don’t show up, today I was all upset because one of my 🦌 ( I have a herd of about 12 that hang out in our yard) was limping. I was in a panic, then all of a sudden he was prancing around like Rudolph .
Great idea!! Going to have to try it!!! I had noticed even as early as this past summer there were hardly any squirrels around anywhere!!! Even by the lake ... Erie... abt 10 miles from me..there are always an abundance of the critters. And there is a super highway of wires that they use to get across 2 streets has almost no squirrels ...So the issue isn’t just in Montana.. but NY as well... Wonder if anyone else has noticed?? Or knows what’s going on? Stay cozy and warm!!!😻👩🏻🦰💖
Gayle, when my shower diverted valve started leaking we were able to cut drywall at wall stud width to allow plumber access. I then ordered a door panel, just like my cabinets to screw over the opening. Just in case we ever had to work on it again. 18x48 inch panel. Looks fine. Good luck!
Bless you. Need lidocaine for my brain cramps! My cells haven’t been able to handle steroids for a while but binging on everybody’s videos offerings!!! 🤪😎♦️🆒📖💕👍😎
Hi Gayle. So happy to hear your upbeat voice today. I found out today that a good friend from my teaching days in Virginia has passed away. She had been battling blood cancer the last 4 years and finally lost that battle. She was only 47. I feel so very sad as I had last got a text from her at Thanksgiving and thought she was okay. But I didn't get a Christmas card from her like I normally do and she hadn't written me back on an email. Thought maybe she was just busy with family over the holidays. I didn't even consider she might be really bad as our neighbor friend has the same thing and is doing okay. He is much older, too. Now, I rarely get on Facebook anymore, but had to today and saw another teacher had made a post about her being gone. It really broke my heart and I've been feeling so foolish for not checking on her sooner. But as I've told you, my life has been so hectic due to work and my own health issues. Anyway, I wanted to let you know that you mean a lot to me, my friend, and are such a joy for me, even when I can't get on here. Thank you for being you and all the warmth you have brought to my life and others. I love what you do, but love you, Gayle, the person even more. God bless you and I hope you have a good rest of your day. Hugs! Sue
Really enjoying this accordion style journal. You explained it so well!! No squirrels here either. Hopeful for snow today (Sunday wee morning hour). Did your grandson win in his weight category? Did your granddaughter win also?💕🐬warm hugs for you (Gayle)
Our grandson wasn’t able to wrestle because his opponent got the you know what. 😕. And I think Addie’s team lost the game that occurred when I filmed this video. But she played a bit of the varsity game and made a three pointer! Woohoo! ❤️
My dear Gayle, you sound so much better today. I hope the migraine went away quickly. I love this project and I will have to watch the video again to get the pages right. I love that there is a lot of collage. I love to do that, and I love the neutral pallet. I was wondering if you could give me a source for the piano paper, or was that an antique store find? Anyway, I loved the Scrappy Saturday, today. Thank you so much for the time that you take to make all the videos for us. I look forward to them everyday!
Hi Gayle! I feel that your squirrels are probably hiding out in their nests and “hibernating”. Our squirrels, here in Colorado, don’t come out until around 7:00 in the morning when the sun starts warming things up. They’re no dummies.
You're so much kinder than I am. For those who look for those words on a page, I would make it easier for them them and circle them with a red marker! Willing to help anyway I can! :0) Also just because it's a dollar store book does not make it a book with bad words. You can walk into any expensive book store or high class library (Library of Congress, i.e.) and find books with the same words. Think I'll give this kind of journal a try - Looks like fun!
Oh my Gayle, worry not about the bad words on the dollar store book pages. First of all I think most of us use them, so we know what is in them and second, there is no way we can see any words on the pages let alone spot a bad word. It's all good girly.

That’s what one nasty comment from a viewer will do…make one forever self conscious about what they complained about. 🥴. I don’t know…maybe they used a magnifying glass. 😂. I can’t read the words either! ❤️
I can’t see the words, no worries, ignore the nit pickers.
People are weird, if you have to pause the video, enlarge it, and get out your magnifying glass to look for something to be offended by then you’ve got more of a problem than a word on a page. Besides, it’s not like those words were aimed at her, nobody was calling her those words, well at least not in this incident, may be in her real life. 😝

This will make a wonderful journal Gayle. Great idea! Hugs, Amy💕

I enjoyed watching you make this accordion journal base. I always liked the look of neutral collage. Thanks for sharing.
I’m loving it Gayle 🥰 Scrappy Saturday awesomeness 🤗👋
This accordion journal is very interesting. I look forward to watching more work on it. Thank you for sharing.
G'day Gayle. I love this idea. Collaging is one of my favourite things to do. Also love the neutral colors.
This was so informative Gayle! Thank you for sharing the whole process of putting the pages together. Love it so far!
You are a joy to watch!
Thank you, Barbara! That’s a lovely thing to say! ❤️
What a great idea! Oh yes I am going to try this! I love all your cool ideas! A great way to use up some of those book pages from the altered book. I just always enjoy hanging out with you my friend!

This is exactly what I needed right now. Thank you so much. Now I can go ahead. An excellent video for learning the necessary details.
Hi Gayle, I watch this this morning and I started mine tonight . Can't wait for the next one. Using different colors of book pgs. Is cool.
Yes I did enjoy today's strappy Saturday I'm going to do this soon thank you Gayle 💞
Really enjoyed this video Gayle, a few things I learnt there just watching you collage, thank you. x👍❤
LOVED it! I made a simple version for a personal #junkjournaljanuary journal, but it is pretty wonky. I am going to try it this way next time. And I always love watching you collage... Oh, and thank you for saying "Hi and Hugs" to me today!
Hi Gayle, thanks for this. It makes SENSE!! I will definitely have a go now. Lots of ideas all of a sudden as inspiration strikes. Happy New Year sweet lady. We haven’t had real snowfall for a couple of years. It’s so lovely to hunker down when it’s snowing. Hugs from England x

Love how its turning out and looking forward to what's next. Hope you have a nice weekend, take care! 💜
I do love this style!! I like the idea you had about making these up in advance! Thanks for sharing this idea!!
What an interesting take on this! It looks like fun. Thanks for sharing!

Hi Gayle. This looks like a fun way to use scraps. Sending hugs from New Zealand
I think your squirrel took a vacation to S. California Gayle! 😄 For the first time in my 26 years of living in my house I have a squirrel in my backyard and he’s not shy lol. I love this idea, I have a Vanity Fair from the 1890’s that fell apart and is too delicate for most things but will do well in this project. And it has wonderful graphics and ads… I can’t wait to get started! Thank you so much for sharing and your wonderful inspiration.
Good Morning Gayle!! Happy Saturday!

LOVE the framed coffee dyed pages and the overall approach to an accordion! 😍💕😊
A great way to use up tons of scraps!
Love this idea! Think I'll start one too!
Gayle this is such a fun journal. Can't wait to see the cover.
Good morning Gayle. Yes, I have been seeing many accordion journals but none like yours. Charlotte Peterson did a couple recently that were cute but smaller and fussier. Looking forward to watching you put this together. Hope the plumber come back, lol. Take care and be safe. Hugs.
thanks so much for the tutorial. I look forward to having a go at this, lots of fun collaging.
It's been a ball, Gayle. Good luck to your grandkids in all their games.
Good morning Sis! Happy Scrappy Saturday! Have a super day! Love you! ❤️
Yay! I love this! I have a 91 year old pen pal and I’m always looking for fun quick thing to make. I actually saw the finished product on your giveaway and with the use of a picture book it went together fast and fun! (My pen pal sends me something once a week so I have to work hard to keep up!)

Agree! I've tried other methods and struggled with them to look right and was harder to put together.
Good morning! Interesting cool project! Can’t wait to see cover. Thanks for sharing! Blessings!💕

My brain hurts too...😂😂😂😂another wonderful video, tfs
Good morning beautiful friend! Happy Scrappy Saturday! Woohoo. Have a fabulous day my friend ❤

And there is a super highway of wires that they use to get across 2 streets has almost no squirrels ...So the issue isn’t just in Montana.. but NY as well... Wonder if anyone else has noticed?? Or knows what’s going on? Stay cozy and warm!!!😻👩🏻🦰💖
Gayle, when my shower diverted valve started leaking we were able to cut drywall at wall stud width to allow plumber access. I then ordered a door panel, just like my cabinets to screw over the opening. Just in case we ever had to work on it again. 18x48 inch panel. Looks fine. Good luck!
Great use of book pages and fun!
Bless you. Need lidocaine for my brain cramps!
My cells haven’t been able to handle steroids for a while but binging on everybody’s videos offerings!!! 🤪😎♦️🆒📖💕👍😎
Squirrels hibernate in their nests when it’s cold by the way. So don’t stress too much, I’m sure they’re all fine 🐿
Gonna try this!
Hi Gayle. So happy to hear your upbeat voice today. I found out today that a good friend from my teaching days in Virginia has passed away. She had been battling blood cancer the last 4 years and finally lost that battle. She was only 47. I feel so very sad as I had last got a text from her at Thanksgiving and thought she was okay. But I didn't get a Christmas card from her like I normally do and she hadn't written me back on an email. Thought maybe she was just busy with family over the holidays. I didn't even consider she might be really bad as our neighbor friend has the same thing and is doing okay. He is much older, too. Now, I rarely get on Facebook anymore, but had to today and saw another teacher had made a post about her being gone. It really broke my heart and I've been feeling so foolish for not checking on her sooner. But as I've told you, my life has been so hectic due to work and my own health issues. Anyway, I wanted to let you know that you mean a lot to me, my friend, and are such a joy for me, even when I can't get on here. Thank you for being you and all the warmth you have brought to my life and others. I love what you do, but love you, Gayle, the person even more. God bless you and I hope you have a good rest of your day. Hugs! Sue
Thank you dear, Sue! I’m so sorry about the loss of your friend. 🙏❤️
@@gayleagostinelli_ct Thanks, Gayle!
Think this is perfect junk journaling, bet the pages will feel so sturdy, think you could do a bit of mixed media on them, I’m loving it. Xx
These would be cute to even put a few scrapy PCs of book page on the coffee dyed paper after they are down. Very fun.
Really enjoying this accordion style journal. You explained it so well!! No squirrels here either. Hopeful for snow today (Sunday wee morning hour). Did your grandson win in his weight category? Did your granddaughter win also?💕🐬warm hugs for you (Gayle)
Our grandson wasn’t able to wrestle because his opponent got the you know what. 😕. And I think Addie’s team lost the game that occurred when I filmed this video. But she played a bit of the varsity game and made a three pointer! Woohoo! ❤️
My dear Gayle, you sound so much better today. I hope the migraine went away quickly. I love this project and I will have to watch the video again to get the pages right. I love that there is a lot of collage. I love to do that, and I love the neutral pallet. I was wondering if you could give me a source for the piano paper, or was that an antique store find? Anyway, I loved the Scrappy Saturday, today. Thank you so much for the time that you take to make all the videos for us. I look forward to them everyday!
Search Piano Roll Paper on Etsy. There are lots of sellers. ❤️
This turned out very cute XXX
Hi Gayle! I feel that your squirrels are probably hiding out in their nests and “hibernating”. Our squirrels, here in Colorado, don’t come out until around 7:00 in the morning when the sun starts warming things up. They’re no dummies.
Very cool, love it!!!
You're so much kinder than I am. For those who look for those words on a page, I would make it easier for them them and circle them with a red marker! Willing to help anyway I can! :0) Also just because it's a dollar store book does not make it a book with bad words. You can walk into any expensive book store or high class library (Library of Congress, i.e.) and find books with the same words. Think I'll give this kind of journal a try - Looks like fun!
You’re my kind of girl with the red marker, 😂
As usual I love this!
