After watching so many videos with disgust and disappointment because they lacked professionalism, to the point instructions, using too many, "ums", or teaching someone and wasting time, or not explaining what medium of anything they're using, i almost gave up until i came to your video. I first saw the journal on Pinterest and it blew my mind. Never made one "ever", didn't even know they existed, so off I went to TH-cam. But after seeing your video, you made it easier to understand the basic foundations and now I can take it from here with much more confidence. You're a great teacher, so eloquent. Can't wait to start one, but will always come back to your video for support. Thank you!!!!
thank you so much! I do admit that I "um" a lot, though :) Ever since my thyroid issues, my brain "ain't what it used to be" but I work hard to make things as concise as possible! Thank you so much. Glad you found this video!
It's 7-2019 now and I found your tutorial two nights ago. It is fabulous!! This morning I have a finished junk journal with three signatures and it is VERY nice. Your instructions are SO helpful and clear. While I wait for the glue to dry completely, I'm going to go look for your other tutorials Thanks so much !!!
You are a very good teacher. You explained everything well and simple enough that I could understand easily since I have never made one. Thanks so much for sharing. God Bless you and yours...
I agree with Mary Marlow..best tutorial I've seen...most just show the junk journal they've finished and not the steps..and I get it..especially if they're selling them on etsy or elsewhere and want to keep the competition low...but most of us just want to make them for ourselves and have no intention of selling them. Thank you again...love your channel!! xo
I agree with everyone else the best tutorial I have seen. I have already cut down file folders and paper for signatures. Thank you again for the inspiration.
Excellent tutorial! You have a special gift of giving directions in an extremely clear, to-the-point, and very easy-to-follow way! And that in itself is an art! Unfortunately, some people give such terribly confusing directions for even the simplest of projects, that they leave the once eager viewers with a sense of total discouragement and loss of motivation to ever pursue the project again! So I APPLAUD you and THANK you for sharing this journal-making technique with us in such an uncomplicated way! 👏 Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!
That paper is gorgeous and I like the compact size too. You're so right about how different all of the videos are and how it all starts to blur as to what you picked up from where. I scored a large box of old Readers Digest recently - such lovely covers - but I'm going to make one like this, as your instructions are very clear to understand. Thanks.
have been junk journaling for a couple of months now...and am so glad I came across your video. Great tutorial. subscribed. Thanks much. Was able to do two covers while watching and re watching your video. Normally takes me a couple of days....lol....Thanks again for a wonderful tutorial.
Omg!! Thank you so very much! I’ve been dabbling in junk journals but was having difficulty with the binding process! You just covered all the basics in a way that made it so understandable! Thank you! 🥰
I cannot get enough of all of your videos! You are so wonderful to share your ideas with all of us. Your tutorials are organized and well-explained. I am loving junk journals! I knew I was collecting all of those treasures for a reason and junk journals are the reason. Many many thanks!
Thank you for this video. I have watched other binding videos and yours is the easiest to understand that I have looked at. I have yet to do the pamphlet stitch. I have used my sewing machine to stitch signatures before.
I have used the machine, too, and staples, but sometimes I end up with signatures that are too thick or have materials I can't insert any other way than the pamphlet stitch.
Your tutorials are just the best I've ever seen; Thank You for being so patient in Your voice and You make it very enjoyable to watch and learn! Thank You for sharing.
I found this tutorial to be very helpful. I created my very first junk journal for a Christmas party gift exchange. I followed your steps for staining the paper, making the cover from a file folder, and then adding the signatures. I have a flip through of it on my channel.
Your video just answered a barrel of questions that I had on how to make a journal- thank you so much! For pulling the needle through you can buy rubber finger guards cheaply at a office supply store to grip the needle with- post office people use them.
I'm late to the show, just found you & I agree with M, the BEST tutorial, so much info, now I know how to start. Thank you so much. I'm also following you on FB & your Blog. The best.
I'm just watching this too! I feel like I"m years behind the times with journaling, but don't know if or why I'd need to make one. I just really enjoy looking at other's and their videos!
great tutorial!! I haven't ever seen anything like this until yesterday when I was looking for something else on TH-cam. I love to craft..(crocheting is my absolute passion) so I might very well do something that enhances it!!
:) I used to crochet more, but my vision got too fuzzy for it -- I was making all those cute little animals. And, DUH, I just needed a new prescription for my eyeglasses. All better! :)
An excellent tutorial. I've made several of these. I would add the small cotton crochet thread used for doilies as a choice to use for sewing in the signatures.
@@LollyPalooza The colors are awesome. The thread doesn't stretch as I have found out in making tops with it. It will shrink if not washed correctly and then have stretch issues. You can wax any thread with beeswax. In Amazon, search for beeswax for quilting. Dritz has it for $3.80 and is Prime.
Thank you! Flip throughs are easier to film. :) Tutorials take more work and planning and editing. Thanks for watching and subscribing. Love having you!
I loved watching this video! I'm trying to learn all I can about creating junk journals. I found this video to be very helpful. Great instruction and clear directions. Thank you so much!
Great video! You were brief and so clear with your instructions, also your journal looks so nice! Thank you for sharing. You make it look so easy. Lol. Since I have been working on one all day I know otherwise.
I love your tutorials. I got the junk journal bug a few months back and really enjoy the creative process and all the information and options. Oh and btw I had to buy 3 of the Michaels mixed media hot buy pads because I just love the papers. TFS!
Thank you so much..I am so happy to find this video...I have put off so long as I knew there was a better process than what I could put together. I really love how you have binded this, a great video.
When tea dying papers it will actually crumple them anyway & I always iron them afterwards & iron them well. Why do I iron them? 1.) You'll fit a lot more pages in your journal by ironing them. 2.) A journal is generally for writing in & You'll want your papers as flat as possible for this reason.
+Lolly Palooza Yeah, it's nice though if you use naturally crumpled parchment in between I find, just for tactility but not the writing ones. Did You find when You used to crumple them that it sometimes made it harder to align the papers as You sewed them in? My iron broke during my second journal attempt so I couldn't iron the printed cardstock papers I'd tea dyed. I found I had problems keeping them lined up right when I was threading the needle through. Yours were okay here cos You only crumpled a few in the middle & it does add to the tactile affect.It's all trial & error I guess. No right or wrongs as it's art
+Lolly Palooza So it's not just Me then. Lol The binder clip is a Godsend too. I forgot the binder clip last time. I make a lot of mistakes before I sew it together. Great tutorial though. You manage to make it look easy
well i have to say a big thank you for one of the best tutorials ive seen so far ,you have really made it look so easy ,I cant wait to start my journal , again ty so very much for a great video ..........
This is THE best tutorial of making a junk journal that I have watched!! And I have watched hundreds. Thank you so much!!! Please tell me where you got the waxed thread. I have looked in all my stores here, even JoAnns, and no one has it. BIG THUMBS UP
Many thanks! :) I agree -- I looked all over for waxed LINEN cord. Hobby Lobby has ZERO. I found a small amount at Michaels (jewelry making supplies) and bought more on eBay. EBay has plenty!
I know this is a really late reply but I get mine from Hobby Lobby in the leather working department. They’ve had it for years at mine. They also have it in different colors from cream to dark brown.
Hi! I just found your channel and subscribed! Thank you so much for your video, I haven't made a journal yet, but I want to make one in honor of my pup that I lost yesterday.
Thank you for subscribing. I'm so sorry about your puppy. What a treasure it will be to have a sweet journal to remember the love your had with your puppy!
You are very good teacher. You make every project you share easy to understand and explain everything thoroughly. I never get list. So, of course, I subscribed to your utube channel!
thank you. It's easy to use the papers this way. So many of the different sizes cause paper waste because you have to trim papers down and have scraps left over.
Thank you so much for this very informative video. I'm just getting into journals and this vud makes journals so much easier to make. Again, thank you. PS...you are a great demonstrator.
I realized you had a link thanks. Do you have a suggestion on camera to get for video taping on you tube. It was very clear and easy to see what you were doing thanks
Hi I'm a beginner I also subscribed to your channel I've been watching lots of tutorials to see how everyone does them and yours is really easy 2 I still haven't made one but I will
Hi new subbie here ..I am thinking of doing a junk joneral..but didn't know where to start ..this explains it fully thank you so much ..it's not complaited ..just perfect to understand so thank you so much xxxx
Do you have a tutorial on how to make a standard size junk journal? (Like the basic midori size? Or maybe just the measurements?) Really well informed video btw, nice job!
Thank you. There is no standard size junk journal. It's a matter of preference. A Midori is a Traveler's Notebook, and even with that, there are a lot of different sizes out there. I found this helpful chicsparrow.com/pages/sizes-101 I've put all my mini albums, journals, and notebook videos into one playlist. You can look at the playlist and watch the ones that have "fauxdori" in the title. th-cam.com/play/PL4gDAGNgtKMEvf0SnMyOmeg6FtC6V20de.html
Thank you so much 😊 Lolly that’s very helpful and useful. And I really love 💕 the paper 📝 pack you’ve used it’s stunning, but I don’t think 💭 we can get it in the UK 🇬🇧.
Wonderful tutorial and beautiful journal. May I ask where you get small file folders or do you cut a regular size down and if so could I get the measurements for this journal? Thank you Lolly🌷
I just cut regular file folders down. I find boxes of them at thrift stores, so they are a cheap alternative to card stock. I do give measurements for everything in the video, from the papers that go into the signatures to the cover. Measurements are shares on each section as I describe it. :)
Wow! This is great, thank you so much. I'm just about to start making one of these but was a little unsure of the process even though I've watched others make them. Hugs 😘 Kelly Weiskopf
I love the way you explain things😊 Thank you😊 I was thinking only the other day how mixed media has come into fashinon and I thought myself new to mixed media. Yet as children we are all naturally mixed media artists. We might have some crayons in some colours but want another colour and naturally grab a felt tip pen, which makes it mixed media. I wonder who was really the first mixed media artist, or are we all the inventors but just don't know it😊
Lolly Palooza I have never grasped abstract. But I think I understand now. It's less stressful. You don't have to worry about the outcome as much. It's about enjoying the process. So really, there is no point in looking at other people's abstract art. Unless you like the colours maybe? Oh I don't know, lol😄
I totally agree with Mary Marlow.This is the best tutorial and I’ve watched hundreds myself. Thank you so much!
thank you so much!
I've watched Tons of tutorials and I have to say this is one of the best I've seen. Straight to the point, detailed and well delivered. Thank you!
thank you so much!
After watching so many videos with disgust and disappointment because they lacked professionalism, to the point instructions, using too many, "ums", or teaching someone and wasting time, or not explaining what medium of anything they're using, i almost gave up until i came to your video.

You are a very good teacher. You explained everything well and simple enough that I could understand easily since I have never made one. Thanks so much for sharing. God Bless you and yours...

thank you so much! Hope you enjoy making them :)
You're very calm and keep it simple. I appreciate that very much...
Thank you so much! :)
I agree with everyone else the best tutorial I have seen. I have already cut down file folders and paper for signatures. Thank you again for the inspiration.
way to go! Once you make one, it will be wasy to alter the dimensions for other sizes!
Excellent tutorial! You have a special gift of giving directions in an extremely clear, to-the-point, and very easy-to-follow way! And that in itself is an art!
Unfortunately, some people give such terribly confusing directions for even the simplest of projects, that they leave the once eager viewers with a sense of total discouragement and loss of motivation to ever pursue the project again!

Ooh!! I really love the mixed media decorative paper you used on this journal..xx💗💗💗👌
thank you! :)
Just found your video. Great tutorial, Lolly! Very easy to understand and a beautiful new journal you're creating.
Many thanks!
An excellent tutorial. I've made several of these. I would add the small cotton crochet thread used for doilies as a choice to use for sewing in the signatures.
It comes in lots of pretty colors, too, which is great. It may stretch over time, which is why I use the waxed linen
@@LollyPalooza The colors are awesome. The thread doesn't stretch as I have found out in making tops with it. It will shrink if not washed correctly and then have stretch issues. You can wax any thread with beeswax. In Amazon, search for beeswax for quilting. Dritz has it for $3.80 and is Prime.
This papers on this are GOOOOORRRRRRRGGGGEOUSSSSSSS!
Thank you VERY much, dear lady!

You could use waxed dental floss, that is very strong.
Good, clear instruction! Thanks. Love the size. Can't wait to try one.

Thank you so much for this very informative video. I'm just getting into journals and this vud makes journals so much easier to make. Again, thank you. PS...you are a great demonstrator.
thank you very much! Glad you found the video and are getting ready to make journals!
I love that cover paper
thank you :)
Use a needle nose plier to pull the threaded needle through the paper when sewing the signatures onto the spine.
I do sometimes as well.
I must try that! Much easier on the back, right..thanks again
Patty Devoux thank you :)
your description was great. just interested in what string that was. thanks
Granny waxed linen string
I realized you had a link thanks. Do you have a suggestion on camera to get for video taping on you tube. It was very clear and easy to see what you were doing thanks
Granny I use my cell phone.
TFS...I learned tons!!! You are an excellent instructor.

Great tutorial for an easy junk journal. Ty
thanks a bunch
Thank you Lolly for sharing this! 💕🌞🇨🇦✌🎀
You're welcome. Sometimes we find bits of info in different places, but it's nice to have it all in one spot
Do you have a tutorial on how to make a standard size junk journal? (Like the basic midori size? Or maybe just the measurements?) Really well informed video btw, nice job!

Thank you very much! Sorry about the paper choices at your reach. :( We really are spoiled in the U.S.
Tfs, lovely work as always.
many thanks!
You did a great job 😊
Thank you! 😊
Wonderful tutorial and beautiful journal. May I ask where you get small file folders or do you cut a regular size down and if so could I get the measurements for this journal? Thank you Lolly🌷
I just cut regular file folders down. I find boxes of them at thrift stores, so they are a cheap alternative to card stock. I do give measurements for everything in the video, from the papers that go into the signatures to the cover. Measurements are shares on each section as I describe it. :)
Truly wonderful. Thank you so much for sharing!
thank you so much
hi, the ephemera's vintage garden link doesn't exist...............loved your video ....great tutorial ty so much
thank you. I'll fix it. Turns out that there is no more "Freebie" tab, which is why the link is broken.
Wow! This is great, thank you so much. I'm just about to start making one of these but was a little unsure of the process even though I've watched others make them. Hugs 😘

I love the way you explain things😊 Thank you😊 I was thinking only the other day how mixed media has come into fashinon and I thought myself new to mixed media. Yet as children we are all naturally mixed media artists. We might have some crayons in some colours but want another colour and naturally grab a felt tip pen, which makes it mixed media. I wonder who was really the first mixed media artist, or are we all the inventors but just don't know it😊
I took art class in high school, and I had a hard time grasping the concept of mixed media and abstract art. I stuck to it, though!
Lolly Palooza I have never grasped abstract. But I think I understand now. It's less stressful. You don't have to worry about the outcome as much. It's about enjoying the process. So really, there is no point in looking at other people's abstract art. Unless you like the colours maybe? Oh I don't know, lol😄

Enjoyed your video. I have never heard of doing this before. What is a "signature"?
colleen miller it's the group of pages sewn together. Several signatures are added to a book or journal.
When you tea-dye paper, do you just do it on regular printing paper, please? I love the look of them so will definitely give it a try! 😁😁
Knallbart I mostly used printer paper for my computer printer.
