- *CORRECTION: the paper that covers the spine is 3/4 inches wide, not 1/4. Here is a tutorial for a basic junk journal, including how to sew in the signatures. Sorry about the poor video quality toward the end. It seems like a setting got changed in filming.

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. 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!
I really like the way you explain what you are doing. Thank you very much. God bless you always
thank you bunches :)
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 very much :)
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 !!!
Woot! So glad to hear! Sometimes the older videos are still the best!
Thank you for doing this video. I'm sure I will be watching this again. I also want to say, "The paper on the front and inside is so pretty. "💝😊
Thanks for watching :)
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
thank you so much! Hope you enjoy making them :)
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.
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!
You're very calm and keep it simple. I appreciate that very much...
Thank you so much! :)
Thank you! Out of the billion tutorials I've watched on junk journals, this is the clearest and best to understand and see. Thanks!
that's very kind of you! Thanks so much!
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.
Fabulous! So glad to hear. :)
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 very much! So sweet of you to offer such generous encouragement!
I agree with Mary, this tutorial made so much a lot clearer. Thank you so much. I am new to junc k journaling. Thanks again!
you are very welcome! I'm so glad you found the video, and it's helpful to you!
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.
that's very kind of you! Thank you for watching. :)
Thank you Lolly for this tutorial. Very clear and easy to follow. I'm definitely going to try this.
Fab. Glad to help.
I love this concept. Thank you for all you do to teach us what you already know. You're wonderful!!!
thank you. :)
This papers on this are GOOOOORRRRRRRGGGGEOUSSSSSSS!
Thank you VERY much, dear lady!
Yes so very pretty
Thanks for this. After all the flip throughs this is a breath of fresh air! New subscriber :)
Thank you! Flip throughs are easier to film. :) Tutorials take more work and planning and editing. Thanks for watching and subscribing. Love having you!
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.
Bonnie Pittman great idea. I have those from when I did office work
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!
thank you so much for your encouragement!
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 ..........
Thanks a bunch! I appreciate it!
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!
Robin Ludwig thank you so much! Glad to help!
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.
well done! There's something so energizing about completing a book
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.
Readers Digests are GREAT book covers! :)
Must be 40-50 approx. I won an online auction for less than $5 AUD
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.
Fabulous! I'm so happy that I could help!
Excellent tutorial. Clear, precise and easy to follow. Thanks for sharing your process.
thank you so much!
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! 🥰
Glad it was helpful! Thank you so much for watching!
Good, clear instruction! Thanks. Love the size. Can't wait to try one.
thank you very much! :) I hope you enjoy making one!
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! :)
I really enjoyed this video! You explained the process so anyone could make the journal! Even me! I can’t wait to try it!!
Thank you! I love to keep it simple!
Just found your video. Great tutorial, Lolly! Very easy to understand and a beautiful new journal you're creating.
Many thanks!
Thank you so much! This video was amazing! It was to the point and informative. Bless you!❤️
thank you for watching and for the encouragement!
Ooh!! I really love the mixed media decorative paper you used on this journal..xx💗💗💗👌
thank you! :)
Thank you so much. This video is very informative and I now feel BRAVE enough to try this myself! Thanks for inspiring me!
perfect!
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!
Great idea. I picked up one, and I'm LOVING it
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 am thankful for all your support!
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!
A beautiful project and video. Clear and concise instructions. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
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 never get a project done in one sitting. I have to get up and think about it, several times. :)
You make it look so easy! Great tutorial, I’ll definitely use this for inspiration!
thanks a bunch! :)
This was engaging and helpful, I thought the speed of video was perfect!
thanks so much! :)
Excellent job explaining the process!! Thanks for sharing!
Glad it was helpful!
Some helpful tips. Thank you. Very well done and clear explanations.
Thank you. Glad to know you could understand :)
You do such a great job of explaining the process and a beautiful journal
thanks a bunch! Your encouragement is appreciated.
Awesome tutorial! Thanks for easy-to-understand instructions for us beginners. ☺️😆

Awesome video, very helpful! This is a great beginner junk journal so I will try making one. Thanks so much! Blessings and Hugs from Canada!
TFW
You explain things so well. Thank you so much.❤️
thank you so much for watching
What a perfect beginners Tutorial...thank you so much xxx
thank you! So glad it helped!
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!
Mary Marllow agreed!!!!
I totally agree! simplified that whole process for me. Your instructions are clear, concise, well-paced, very helpful! Thanks so much for the info!
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.
You could use waxed dental floss, that is very strong.
TFS...I learned tons!!! You are an excellent instructor.
Mary Ann Schuetz thank you so much :)
Thank you so much Lolly, this is a very helpful tutorial, easy to follow. ceci
Sassy Ceci thanks a bunch! Glad it was helpful. :)
ty for such a great explanation. the best Ive seen yet!
Thank you so much!
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!
Truly wonderful. Thank you so much for sharing!
thank you so much
Great video. I made one today for my granddaughter's Christmas gift.
Cathie OK outstanding!
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.
Rebekah Joanne Legion I don't even crumple them any more. This was my early attempt.
+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
Rebekah Joanne Legion yes, they are more difficult to align.
+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
You can even use coffee
Thank You*
The size is Nice and like the Modge Podge idea👍
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 Lolly, this really was very clear and concise.
Thank you very much :)
That is great thank you for sharing smiles.
Thank you very much
Great JJ tutorial Tfs!
Happy Crafting!!

Excellent I’m going to give this a try
fantastic. Thanks for watching.
Very interesting. I've never heard if this process!
thank you! :)
I love this tutorial and your Thirty-One coin purse used for storage :-)
Elisha Drake thank you! Thanks for watching :)
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.
Nicely done😊🌸thank you so much!
You're welcome! Thank you so much for watching.
Wonderfully done.
thanks so much
Tfs, lovely work as always.
many thanks!
