My plan is to go thru your videos and make a list of all the things you could add to a junk journal. tags, belly bands, pockets etc. I feel like if I had a list that would help when making a journal. Love your style!
I love that you share how you alter things you are not loving. It’s so easy to get stuck on the things we are unhappy about, so seeing you do something about it is so inspiring! 😘
Things like this always happen to me. I don’t realize something is a problem until I’ve used it for a while. I love your fix. And adding something so simple like the rounded corners just really made it look so polished. Love this.
What a great, seamless, "renovation" Barbara. It’s so in keeping with the original design, it looks like it has always been there. I love how you go back through your journals and improve and update them. That dessert sounds so delicious. I was salivating too. Great repurposing of the packaging 👍 Have a beautiful day, Barbara 🇦🇺
That turned out fantastic! I wasn’t quite sure what you were going for but I love it! Now that it’s done, looks like it was there the whole time! Perfect!
Great solution! And oh my, those desserts sound so yummy, especially the hot version. Tried to think of a yummy traditionally Aussie dessert to share with you. There is of course the ever famous Pavlova, a crunchy meringue shell filled with a soft marshmallow inside, topped with cream & fresh fruit. Or for lovers of creamy desserts, there’s the vanilla slice that traditionally has 2 layers of puff pastry sandwiching a thick vanilla custard (or vanilla crème custard), then topped with a passion fruit icing - served cold. Or the Lamington Sponge cake - layers of light vanilla sponge cake are coated in a chocolate glaze that soaks in a bit, then they’re covered with shredded coconut flakes. Then it’s filled with fresh whipped cream & strawberry jam (or jelly for our American friends). Our iconic desserts tend to be cold due to our frequently hot weather, although it’s ridiculously chilly here in the tropics despite it not even being winter yet. Down to 6 deg C or lower in the normally very hot Queensland. But of course my dog just insisted on me getting up to make him breakfast at 4.30am 🐶 Brrrrr ⛄️
This is such a great idea. I think I will also use it when I'm gluing two pages together to make a large pocket in the middle of my journal somewhere. This flap would work to keep things in and it's so attractive. Love this idea. You are sounding so much happier now and I hope all is well with you. Hugs and blessings
I didn't get to finish watching the video yesterday but just finished it and what a great idea to fix this!! Your a visionary!! You sure did give it your Awwl! :) tehehe your so cute❤
Oooh...You made MY mouth water with your description of that desert, that I can't understand the name of...nor pronounce.😂 I think maybe they use cookie or graham cracker type of crumbs for the ice cream version. Even if I can't pronounce or spell the name, I am gonna try to find a recipe for both types. Sounds absolutely delicious!!💖 I just adore you. I love watching you create. I am always inspired and your personality is so gentle and sweet, It's such a joy.💗
Yes that gap would bother me too. 😋😋😋 that looks and sounds super yummy. That's my favourite brown paper! I can't manage to spray the glue evenly, it just splats 😄 it's good for adding mica on top though to make a sort of marble effect. 🙊 give it your awl 🙊. Looks great! I'll definitely remember to do the flap next time. Tfs and have a great day 💖💖💖
Ich finde die große Tasche jetzt mit dem Verschluss auch viel schöner. 😊 Man sollte generell einfach etwas ändern, wenn einen etwas nach der Fertigstellung stört, finde ich. Meistens dauert es ja nicht lang und sonst nervt sowas auch ganz besonders 😂… Wieder einmal ein wundervoller Junk Journal Snack 👍. Liebe Grüße Nicole
Great solution. I would put inside the pocket some tape or fabric on the "arms or legs" of the brad in order that the ephemera don't get stuck when getting them out. Merci.
Hi Barbara. I had one of those whole making thingys ... they are super duper loud and you have to do that motion several times to get a hole even with paper. It's not hand/finger friendly especially if you need a few holes. Mine also didn't last.
Dear Barbara hi! I love love your "renovation" of your junk journal cover! You made this so "clean" and beautiful that it looks as if it was there from the very beginning! I also loved the dumpling and the ice cream version of it! Slourp! 😋 ❤❤❤❤ I also have a proposal for you: could you consider of making a series of videos with a 10-12 minutes max procedure where we could gather specific materials (generics of course) and follow exactly your steps, to make something beautiful and jj related each time? It doesn't always need for a thing to be completed in just one video, it could sometimes take two or three videos to be completed. And maybe at the end of this series we could combine all these things to make something bigger like a whole jj. I know that your snacks videos somehow relate to this proposal, maybe these could be "child" of snacks for jj newbies or for people like me that cannot make time for organizing and making something that needs more time. Of course you could also ask if there is interest from your subscribers for that. I would love to hear from you! Sweet greetings from Athens, Elena ❤❤❤❤
Dear Elena, thanks for your kind feedback and suggestion. I feel like my JJ Snacks is the closest ai can do to that. If I make them a series, from experience I know viewers unfortunately drop very quickly.
@49dragonflies Dear Barbara, Thank you for your prompt answer. When I wrote series I ment like a collection of videos based to the same idea. And maybe just a few of them could be continued to a second part if needed. But I understand that your snacks are somehow close to that. Thank you for your always inspiring videos!
Does that loud springy thingy have a push button on the end of it? Could you put it in place and then push down on the top of it ? Seems as if you could exert more pressure on it this way. Anyway, you solved it and the flap is perfect. I love watching you as you work--I get many ideas from you. Thank you!
Barbara personal question, is your wedding band on your right hand? I knew in Spain they wear on right hand. Loved your fix with planner. They came out flawless!!!💜💜💜
As always, a yummy episode. How come you didn't put tape or fabric inside the pocket under the inner brad so that the papers won't get stuck? You always do that. Wait. I know. You were thinking of that delicious German snack, weren't you? 😂🥰
My plan is to go thru your videos and make a list of all the things you could add to a junk journal. tags, belly bands, pockets etc. I feel like if I had a list that would help when making a journal. Love your style!
Thanks! That sounds like a great idea! 👍🏻😃❤️
Thank you Barbara I ALWAYS learn something new from you. You’re an excellent teacher. 💕👍👩🎨
I love that you share how you alter things you are not loving. It’s so easy to get stuck on the things we are unhappy about, so seeing you do something about it is so inspiring! 😘
Your snack videos are always my favorites! Thank you so much ❤
I love the sound of paper bag journal wrapped in fabric…. So crinkly yummy. The pocket was such an great idea!
Me too !!!! Are we weird?? Hahaha
@@bozomahoney Not weird at all….. we have great taste :)
Good idea 👍 A great place to keep leftover papers / fabrics from making the journal that can be used throughout the journal for cohesion.

Barbara,great idea! Thanks for telling us about the delicious looking dessert! Yum! TFS! ❤
That turned out fantastic! I wasn’t quite sure what you were going for but I love it! Now that it’s done, looks like it was there the whole time! Perfect!
You are so creative and clever! This flap is just beautiful and perfect, such a great idea and, a problem solved. Thank you ❤🏆💐
So adorable
Loved the flap to close up the pocket. Creativity... isn't it amazing 😍.
I need those desserts - both the ice cream and the original versions! Great alterations!
That desert sounds wonderful! This new flap is adorable.
Dear Barbara, this snack was delicious! 😉😋😍

OMG Im totally salivating! Those desserts sound amazing! ❤️
I think I gained 10lbs just reading about these delicious desserts!!! Lol! I thought peach cobbler was something but these sound amazing!
This is such a great idea. I think I will also use it when I'm gluing two pages together to make a large pocket in the middle of my journal somewhere.

Thank you and have fun with your pockets! 😃❤️

❤❤❤. Thank you for this. Blessings lovely from Colleen
Great idea to solve the problem! Could also use Heat n Bond. I’m salivating along with you on that yummy dessert! 💕
Barbara - your problem solving skills and creative solutions are - awesome!! 🧡💚🤎
Love this idea Barbara! Thank you for sharing with us!

Barbara: great redo job. Yes,- it’s a better idea, and looks good. Carol from California
Oh Mann Barbara - jetzt hab ich total Lust auf Marillenknödel 😃😃toll wie du deine Tasche "gerettet" hast
😃🥰
Just love what you do and how you explain things so clearly!
I believe that punch from FISKARS is called an eyelet setter.

Very nice! Love the idea!😘
Fantastic idea💕

Fun and inspiring 😍🙌🌺🏵🌼🌻
Great solution. I would put inside the pocket some tape or fabric on the "arms or legs" of the brad in order that the ephemera don't get stuck when getting them out. Merci.
Awesome as always!!! ❤
Great job!!!❤❤😊
That is a great fix for that problem. I have that issue as well on one of my journals so now I can remedy it! Thank you for this tip.
So happy this was helpful! 😊❤️
I love this!😊
Can you send me one of those cream things? My mouth was watering. Lol. What a great idea for closing up the pocket. I love it.
😃
I'm working on a project and was trying to solve a problem. This will work wonderfully! Thank you!
I’m so happy this was helpful! 👍🏻❤️
That is too cute✌🏻

You really like that dessert and ice cream, don't you? :D
Great idea with the back pocket flap! I might do this on the Dephemerember journal. :)
That was a great solution! I would have gone the easy route by just sewing it up or put a zipper in (not that zippers are easy to add...LOL).
I would have no idea how to do that! 😃
Good lawt woman!! You're killing me with all that yumminess! Can I get the recipe since you sat here and tortured us with all that goodness?? 😂❤❤
Hello j’adore votre journal . Ou achetez vous vos tissus ils sont tellement beau 🤩
Thanks! I have linked the German online store below the video 😊
@@49dragonflies thank you 🙏🏼

Thanks! No push button on the end 🤷♀️
Is the white glue (you brushed on the paper) watered down?
Yes, I did mention that 😉
Barbara personal question, is your wedding band on your right hand? I knew in Spain they wear on right hand.
Loved your fix with planner. They came out flawless!!!💜💜💜
Yes, i remember in an older video she said they wear them on the right hand.
Thanks! Yes, here in Austria we wear them on the right hand 😊
That’s being a problem solver!!
Do you sell any of your journals you make? If so where? I would love to own one
Pls contact me at my email 49dragonflies@gmail.com. Thanks!
