Vintage Lace junk journal

- I wanted to make a junk journal dedicated entirely to lace, and that's what I've done here. I have a collection of vintage lace scraps from the Sunnyvale Lace Museum, and want to use them up!
Here I am using the digital download kit "Mabel's Diary" once again, because the colors of the kit work so perfectly with lace! Red, black cream and white perfectly complement the pieces of lace I was working with.
In addition to the kit and the lace, I used vintage papers from my own growing collection of letters and postcards I've gathered from antique shops and used book sales.
Mabel's Diary is available from Ephemera's Vintage Garden. Get details at www.ephemerasvintagegarden.com

What a wonderful treasure you have made with your antique lace pieces. Absolutely beautiful!
Lovely journal and a wonderful idea. I have many lace and tatted items from my families' past. They sit in an airtight container in the closet. It would be wonderful to put them in a journal and explain about them. I love the way you have used Mabel's Diary. The colors come alive with the lace. TFS.
Very beautiful...the colors are so rich and bold and the laces are lovely. TFS :)
I loved your idea, I inherited lace and postcards from the beginning of last century and I did a JJ that gave me great pleasure as a way to honor those ladies of the past to whom they belonged.TFS
hi, I am estatic and besotted with vintage lace and have been collecting over the years and have made a lot of things with it and love the way you have used it in your journal and it is definitely my next project, thanks for sharing, greetings Margaret
I really enjoyed the harmony of the deep red with the sepia and black and white and the whole journal with the lace and script and the ladies look so great!
This is beautifully done! A real treasure.
What a beautiful journal!! And the papers worked perfect with the lace you used. Really pretty!
It's so beautiful and unusual l would like to see more of your talent welldone
What a great idea and filled with such gorgeous laces. You have great taste and I love the
EVG's images against your designs, really works well together. TFS
Beautiful. I love how you combined the kit, colors and the lace. I hope I don't miss the lace sale. I would love to have some of those pieces. Thank you for sharing your lovely book.
Are you in the SF Bay Area? Then by all means, stop by the Lace Museum for the sale. It's at the end of this month. :-)
At 12 minutes page with the red rose that was what pulled me to your channel, thank you for sharing.💖
Nice! I'm happy you liked it :-)
This is truly a work of art!! Thank you so much for sharing this journal!!
Thanks, Anne. Glad you like it :-)
Leaves me awed and inspired. I feel like starting my own lace journal now. Great video. Please keep them coming. Look forward to each and every one. 💕
Thanks so much, Susan! If you are ever near Sunnyvale, California, stop by the Lace Museum. That's where I got my lace bits 😉
Lace museum !?! Never had heard about it, wow,wow!!!
Laura, You're too funny! Yes, it exists. It's one of the few in the whole United States.
Beautiful journal!!
This is one of the most beautiful and interesting journals ever ... thanks for sharing your talent!
Thank you so much, Barb. I'm so glad you liked it :-)
Margarete, this is an amazing and beautiful collection! I love how you have put it together and the kits goes so well with it. Thanks for sharing! What a treasure to be near that museum and be able to help out there. 🙂
Margaret, what a beautiful way to showcase your collectibles. This collection was one of my first digi download purchases. Your thoughtful selection in order to combine the use of white, black and cream lace was genius. New subbie. Happy Crafting.
Awesome, Michelle ! Thanks :-)
Fantastic idea, very pretty!
Love your work it is so inspiring. Thank you for sharing with the world.
Thanks, Eileen :-))
Just lovely! I love your work, even your so called "trashy" journals!
Thank you, Rebecca :-)
Fabulous journal
Lace Museum? Wow - very cool
Thanks, Sue :-) Glad you like it!
Love to hear that you have falling in love with all that lace. Love your journal, so beautiful pages, the paper kit goes perfectly together with your laces. I'm going this summer to Bruges in Belgium and there is also a lace museum I'm going to visit.
This is one beautiful journal, Margarete!! I love all the vintage lace, gorgeous. I had no idea there were lace museums, but why not...I'll have to research to see if there's any in my country. The tissue you used is from Michael's, in their packaging section. I've bought it there a few times and used it on covers of journals. Not Tim Holtz...maybe Recollections? But last time I went looking for it, they didn't have it anymore. Too bad since it is awesome. Thanks for sharing! Debbie :)
Thanks for the feedback! I appreciate it :-) Hope you find more lace museums. There are only a few in the US, I think.
Hi Margaritte. New to your channel and loving your ideas❤️💯🎉
Thanks, Mary ❤️
very beautiful !♥
:-) Thanks, Dominique
Your laces are beautiful and I love the way you chose to display them. Just lovely! I’m a new subbie and I enjoy your channel.
Thanks so much, Candace. Lace is really fun to work with. I should do more with it :-)
Gorgeous😍💕
WOW! That is really beautiful! I love the research you did behind all the different laces. I guess I never thought about different kinds or regions that they would come from.
I can see using those fragments in a collage piece the way Nik the Booksmith does or Nazy at Amity Bloom. And YES! There's an audience for lace on Etsy. :-)
So glad you like it! You know, 6 months ago I never thought about lace other than if it's pretty or not. I also, never thought about where it came from. It's been a fun education for me too :-)
Beautiful journal! tfs
WOW!!!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Margarete, do you know if the Sunnyvale Lace Museum has a website to order from???
Hi Beverley, I don't believe that they do, sorry :-(
Wonderful journal! I am totally in love with lace & have a small vintage/antique collection amidst my huge collection of lace. This is such a brilliant idea for a journal. Is this journal for sale? Or did you make it for personal use? tfs :-)
Thanks, Edwina. I'm glad to have given you a few ideas of what to do with your lace :-) At some point in the future I will sell off a chunk of my collection of vintage junk journals; have too many now and am not attached to most of them. Maybe by mid year I'll put them up on Etsy (including this one).
Thanks for replying. Any chance,when you do decide to put them in Etsy, you could reserve this one for me? I would love to buy it, I just love it. My email address is: edwinakinch@btinternet.com If you can let me know when it is available to purchase that would be fab.
Thank you so much.
I'll let you know if I put up postings for them.
Margarete Miller~Me too in case she changes her mind. Red & black have been my favorite colors for years and you have chosen so nicely to accentuate the details.
Thanks, Carrie :-)
did you use black paper or did you make it
For black pages in the journal, I used book pages that I dyed with black ink. Secondly, I used black card stock for inserts and embellishing pages.
