Dear Wendy - the longer the video, the better ... I'll bet all of your subscribers would say the same thing. You did a beautiful job making your little book! Take care ... wishing you some peaceful sleep! x
I've only discovered your channel today. I'm a 33 year old archaeologist, with no belief in any supernatural phenomenon, but I have to say, after watching a few of your videos, its your 'good vibes' that are drawing me in. You are a very interesting person and I mean this in a good, respectful way. Keep doing what you are doing. You are an inspiration.
Another of the other vlogs I watch often is The Cottage Fairy. A few episodes ago, she said, “I tend the star inside my heart to keep it shining beautiful, brilliant, and bright.” I’ve taken that as an affirmation and it’s been so meaningful to me to intentionally work on tending the star inside my heart. I’ve found that as I’ve done so, I’ve felt more compassionate and patient with myself as well as others. Thank you, Wendy, for shining your light so brightly here and sharing it with us. 🌟
I enjoyed this so much. I’m recovering from chemotherapy earlier this week and so appreciate what you said about how watching others create is a form of expanding your own creativity. 🥰
Wendy, you are one of the most lovely ladies throughout this you-tube artsy family. You are genuinely happy, funny, sweet, very helpful of ideas and above all a beautiful soul. No matter what mood I'm in you just bring out all the nicest vibes and make one feel relaxed, calm and intrigued by your channel. Thank you so much for just being you.
I've just paused the video to say that I love the idea of creating vision pages in a journal rather than as a vision board. I hadn't really thought about this before, but when you said it, I just knew that this s swhy I have never created a vsion board! Because I worried it would be seen by soemone I would rather not have shared it with. I feel happy to creat them in my private art journal. Thank you for this insight!
I definitely recommend it, I’ve been doing it for years and it is soo much more personal and special and it can help with better results with manifestations, such as bringing them quicker or having more paths open towards your desired intentions. Good luck and hope your journey goes smooth 🌻🍂✨
I love watching people make any kind of journal, it doesn’t matter what kind or if you’re an expert or new. Watching your thought process was fun for me from choosing your papers ,sewing in your signatures. There is something about the sound of paper that makes me happy. Lol
I wish I could do some of the things you say you’ve done. I think because I was raised with nothing, I could not give up anything because we could not afford to replace, if needed later. After many many years of working/laboring with no time for anything else, I’ve found myself on another end of life and with more than I ever expected. Now I’ve more than I need or can use in a life time but trust few to love and respect what it took to get to where I am.
Saturday’s for me in Australia Not at all too long for adding to a collective of inspiration!! The journals I’ve made for gifts were in random books I found then decorated/personalised… time to try making my own. There are no mistakes when we use art as an adventure… Love your light ✌️
I'm only part way through the video. I just had to stop and say what a huge smile and genuine feeling of happiness I felt when I saw your art supplies on the dash of your bus. It's been a lil while since I smiled and felt joy. Thank you for that. I'm a new subscriber, only 2 videos in. I know I won't have a problem catching up. Your energy is wonderful. Thank you for sharing your spirit.
Along with your gift of creativity, you have a very therapeutic voice which is what draws me to your channel. Thanks dear Wendy for this lovely video. Truly enjoyed watching .. love and hugs
Ive said it before and I will say it again...your videos can never be too long Wendy I could sit and listen to you all day..if peop,e dont like it they can wizz to the end. Lady Moon time what a beautiful name for what ails us ladies, although personally thats one benefit of a more senior time of life woo hoo....no more!!! Have a lovely day🤗
How I love happy accidents. Seems fate has drawn me to your door Wendy. Who would have guessed that your tidying up your studio, in your last post would draw me in. I noticed your pictures first, then decided after hearing you lived in a mobile van home, i wanted to find out more of your story. Also see your art work, crafting ideas. Ok I'm a bit nosy about interesting people...i call it being inquisitive. 😉 x Plus I'm a crafting addict. 😆 Loved your journal and i look forward to seeing it developing.
Making a book is very satisfying. I made myself a larger watercolor paper journal a few years ago. I've only done one page in it. I've gotten precious about it, and need to get over that. I have loads of paper and can always make another.
I love putting your videos on while I spend long days alone in my basement studio. It's like we are working and learning together!!! Thank you for providing this content and sort of long-distance comfort/friendship!
I like long video very much, especially when it teaches how to make something. This is a really engaging journal you made- and I like knowing you took the time to teach it via video.
Oh yes...I do this too. So easy to create a matching box for the journal. The first time I did a cigar box I almost felt guilty because it's quick and simple...then I thought "why feel guilty?", it gives me more time to concentrate on the journal. Great suggestion!
Your last edition of black ribbon is so complimentary to your journal. I do appreciate this inspiring tutorial and will try my hand. Have a wonderful December. Canada
i love your book and I think your usual videos are the perfect length. I don't always have time to sit for a long video. Having said that, I love and look forward to each and every video you make. And I always click glasses with you, too. lol
Hello Wendy! As a founding member of the 4am club I just want to say a huge thank you for keeping me company in the wee small hours. Love the art as always. Sending positive thoughts and love your way. Mel X
Oh, goodness Wendy - I've enjoyed this video so much - thank you for making it! I really needed to hear these messages at this time, particularly that I needn't feel guilty if I'm doing more seeking inspiration from watching others create than actual creating. I don't know why I haven't been creating during this whole pandemic-mess, but now I feel it's ok to create if and when I feel like it.
I've been away for a while, but i'm back now! happy to be back in your happy place. and this was the perfect video to watch, because i have decided not to buy a journal for 2022 because i wanted to do one of my own that fits me perfectly, so this is super! happy to see you again Wendy, much love to you and James. i'm going to settle with lots of hot tea and catch up on your videos. It's been hard getting through the down days, your videos help me a lot. just thought you should know.
Having made several journals myself, Wendy’s technique, with its lack of precise measurement and use of a mix of papers makes me both nervous and elated! This is EXACTLY the creative permission I need to give myself to find my way back to the craft. I have retired my career today and am moving soon into a beautiful studio which is bathed in natural light and overlooks a garden. I am so deeply inspired by Wendy right now, I’m feeling a bit weepy. 🥰🌈💕
@@theunexpectedgypsy OMIGOSH! Okay, I’m fangirling a wee bit now, but yay! I got a reply. Thank you Wendy. You take such time and care with your followers. I know this is your vocation but it’s evidently also your avocation. Maybe even your ministry!🥰😘🌈
Thank you so much for this. You gave me several important ideas here. I held back a bit in several things I wrote in my journals. I'm going to gesso over some of that writing and say what I really feel. Next, I am going to do a lot more vision boarding to help create the life I want. Thank you so much for this video.
I am glad you made your own journal. Your own creation inspires the writing. If you paper is a bit thin I find clear gesso strengthens it. Masking tape is good for joining pages or the rolls of fabric sticking plaster. Washi is ok but I have found I need to glue it on. Have lots of fun Arohanui ehoa.❤🌹🌺
I just organized and decluttered my art supplies. I am prepping my space for 2022. I cannot wait to get extremely creative and busy! SHINING MY LIGHT FROM TEXAS FOR Y'ALL!
I don’t know when I last bought a journal - I always make my own from watercolour paper, or scrappy papers for junk journals. I love those wax threads, I also use them for basketmaking. And my awl is a vintage one my father used to use for mending shoes. My bookbinding kit is a treasured possession.
I wish I could work with you. You are very inspiring and no I’m going to go through all my “bits and bobs” and papers to make my own art journal. I like the varying sizes of papers. Between my art items and my scrap booking and my planner things, I believe I can put together a really fun one. I even have some handmade paper left from my college days!
Wow Dear Wendy!!! You are so humble, this art journal you just made is BEAUTIFUL!!! I would want to buy this if I found it in a book shop!!! It is all such good information and your method for making it was clear and realistic for anyone to try! And I agree with everyone else, that we love the longer videos for sure! its all so inspiring and your channel is calm, creative and kind, this is why we all tune in♥️ You are a fantastic artist and teacher! Thank you so very much for sharing all of your content! Raven
Such an awesome video!! Hoping I can get one made in next couple of days! My daughter graduates from college this Friday!! Thanks Wendy!!! Love everything!!!
Thanks for another great video today really enjoyed it and everything was so beautiful you always put together such beautiful journaling books hugs and kisses from grandma Sandy and Debbie also the music was perfect too
You are a beautiful fairy. Your voice is ASMRish in my ears ,And you make videos about creativity mixed media and journaling (one of my favourite topics with psychology and neuroscience) A lovely channel indeed. Thanks ❤️
Well, I didn’t stay off TH-cam, just went down a negative rabbit-hole 🙄 Saw your video in my “recommendations”. So glad I took the recommendation ✨ Missed your life-honesty and your light Wendy x
Ohh wow 🥰 I've been recommended your other videos then found this one you are wonderful 🙌🏾. I've got old papers and stuff I can use I just need materials for the cover. Thank you for sharing your talent I'm about to sort the papers for the inside and do this over Christmas. I really enjoyed your video 🙏🏾
Good evening Wendy, as always thank you for sharing, I enjoyed your thoughts process through journal. Keep your lights bright sending love and hugs Teresa xx
Watching you make this journal was a lovely way to spend Sunday afternoon. Thank you Wendy it is beautiful and different than I would have done - so that’s good!
I am certainly cacooning...I recieved an awesome journal ready made from my sister ..so detailed..from..or rather is a panda one?/..I am looking forward to yours ..a Journal junkies ..fauder..Thank u fro your inspirations........so new doing art on canvas rather than on people..so exciting...except when u put glitter glue instead of eye drops......Thanks for guiding me and believing in the ways..you are Lovely...Love from Canada
Absolutely smoothing! I was having a thunder cloud of a morning and watching this made it absolutely more tolerable. Your 3-photo glass frame I got 2 days ago at Hobby Lobby for your recently purchased treasures from your Etsy shop I purchased, fell and broke.
Wendy I'm convinced you're a Fairy a flower fairy one. Beautiful journal can't wait for you to use it have a lovely weekend gorgeous girl love to you and James 💜💜💜
I am definitely in the peculating stage right now LOL. I've been in it for most of two years now and really need to try to start doing more so I can try to break out of it and do more art. Now is a good time to plant some seeds for next year. I love making my own journals because you can make them the size you want and use the paper you want in them so they are customized to your preferences.
Hi Wendy, so enJOYing watching this as I brush my Love knots out and Dreaming about fun new things after intense year ...Just finished gathering some Spider plant babies and popping them in Tea cups till they grow a few more roots..and i always feel Brighter after that... even that feels like a Sign of the New things to come ... You inspire Me to have go xx Grizi x
i love, love, love this video & series!!!! :)) also enjoy the positive, light weight vibes and actually watched it several times & made my own journal too💜thank you 4 making this wendy! hope there is more to come like this ☺best wishes
I really love this idea as an art journal Wendy! I'm looking forward to seeing some of your entries, and am going to follow along with you after I construct my own art journal as well! This seems to be a great way to use and enjoy the beautiful and various papers that I have recently purchased! Thank you!
Oh my goodness, I just found your channel last night and I couldn't believe in your unboxing video just now...I have the EXACT same bookbinding kit, corner rounder AND alphabet stamp set!! There are no coincidences!! Glad I found you, Wendy!
You are just so so lovely I can feel your lovely energy from here. Thanks for sharing it just goes to show you if you need something uncomplicated quick natural and beautiful to put all your thoughts into ....that is exactly how you whip it up. Blessed Be
Really enjoyed this Wendy, thanks so much! I got a fab idea for how to complete a difficult page in my art journal just watching this….I moved from percolate to finished page x
I'm an art beginner I had a burst of creating for a couple of weeks and now I've stopped. I have really bad anxiety and depression and find doing art so therapeutic. But I'm having problems being motivated to do art right now. Then when you mentioned the 'percolating stage' I thought yeah maybe that's it. I do feel a bit out of ideas so I'm definitely waiting for inspiration to hit. I do find watching others create helpful and calming too.
Thank you so much for sharing all your wonderful thought processes. It is so reassuring and motivating to watch someone have so much fun creating something that may nit be perfect but brings you joy xx
You are so inspiring. I first watched you beginning over a year or so ago. New to TH-cam, I explored and explored. Like you, I love all manner of self expression, and appreciate the benefits. The result was returning to your videos about combining everything, art, writing, crafting, and Journaling . You are delightful. Thank you.
I loved this. It was inspiring to watch you create your own journal and do it without fretting over trying to do it perfectly. And yet, it did indeed turn out beautiful. I'm hooked on making my own since the pandemic started. I doubt I'll go back to buying them as it's so satisfying making your own. Enjoy. 💌✍️📖
Hi Wendy👋 Glad you came into work, had a cuppa w us, made a journal! I'm liking the idea you have of pulling out from the old journals to repurpose! Bringing forward the things that are meaningful to you, were your at now.🙂❤ Happy Journaling!🍁
This video was so amazing. I learned so much. Great job Wendy. I never looked at Journaling as being magical and making your dreams come true. My mother just passed away Sunday. The funeral is Dec. 3. This video gave me a chance to escape, even just for a moment. I need to journal. I tried over the years and just get bored with the process. Maybe now I can look at it in a different light. See you in the next video. Trying to keep my head up high and letting my light shine. My Mom died with Alztheimers. Thanks again for the fun light hearted video. ♥️🎨

It didn't bother me. And I enjoyed the extra time you spent with us. Thank you, dear Wendy. 🕊️🌿🌞
Was it because of the mermaids nakedness I wonder 😄🙈
Much love 💖
I didn’t notice
I'm getting this video is unavailable on this device. :(
@@TorchwoodJHarkness I’m getting this message too. I watched most of it, but when I went back to finish, I got the same message.
Dear Wendy - the longer the video, the better ... I'll bet all of your subscribers would say the same thing. You did a beautiful job making your little book! Take care ... wishing you some peaceful sleep! x
Thank you Beauty, much love to you xxxx
That's true! We can't get enough of Wendy and journals ❤️
Totally agree ❤️🙏🏾
I just watched this video 2 years later. I love it and learned so much from you and the project. I’m really enjoying your videos this week. ❤️
I'm watching in 2024! It's still amazing! xxx
First time for me too.
I've only discovered your channel today. I'm a 33 year old archaeologist, with no belief in any supernatural phenomenon, but I have to say, after watching a few of your videos, its your 'good vibes' that are drawing me in. You are a very interesting person and I mean this in a good, respectful way. Keep doing what you are doing. You are an inspiration.
Another of the other vlogs I watch often is The Cottage Fairy. A few episodes ago, she said, “I tend the star inside my heart to keep it shining beautiful, brilliant, and bright.” I’ve taken that as an affirmation and it’s been so meaningful to me to intentionally work on tending the star inside my heart. I’ve found that as I’ve done so, I’ve felt more compassionate and patient with myself as well as others. Thank you, Wendy, for shining your light so brightly here and sharing it with us. 🌟
I watch Cottage Fairy too, love her channel and Wendy
I also watch that channel
Yes.
I like that channel too
Me too
The Cottage Fairy is a beautiful channel. ❤
I enjoyed this so much. I’m recovering from chemotherapy earlier this week and so appreciate what you said about how watching others create is a form of expanding your own creativity. 🥰
All my best wishes for you ❤️
Blessings to you I know how you feel I've had recurrence for the 4th time but I'm doing well you will feel better soon too love and hugs xx 💜💜💜
Check out a process called Soul Collage. It was critical for me when I too was in treatment. Best to you.
I hope you're doing well these days and are enjoying life!
Wendy, you are one of the most lovely ladies throughout this you-tube artsy family. You are genuinely happy, funny, sweet, very helpful of ideas and above all a beautiful soul. No matter what mood I'm in you just bring out all the nicest vibes and make one feel relaxed, calm and intrigued by your channel. Thank you so much for just being you.
Please Wendy never ever take your channel down even if you finish. You do wonderful videos x

I hadn't really thought about this before, but when you said it, I just knew that this s swhy I have never created a vsion board! Because I worried it would be seen by soemone I would rather not have shared it with. I feel happy to creat them in my private art journal. Thank you for this insight!
I definitely recommend it, I’ve been doing it for years and it is soo much more personal and special and it can help with better results with manifestations, such as bringing them quicker or having more paths open towards your desired intentions. Good luck and hope your journey goes smooth 🌻🍂✨
I love watching people make any kind of journal, it doesn’t matter what kind or if you’re an expert or new. Watching your thought process was fun for me from choosing your papers ,sewing in your signatures. There is something about the sound of paper that makes me happy. Lol
I love how rustic your journal is. It's so nice to see a journal done with love and care, but also with all the imperfections of being handmade.
Makes it so approachable!
I wish I could do some of the things you say you’ve done. I think because I was raised with nothing, I could not give up anything because we could not afford to replace, if needed later. After many many years of working/laboring with no time for anything else, I’ve found myself on another end of life and with more than I ever expected. Now I’ve more than I need or can use in a life time but trust few to love and respect what it took to get to where I am.
i’m recovering from covid and watching this sort of calms my soul. Thank you Wendy!🥰
'Lady Moon time' never heard that expression before but it's gorgeous 😍
You are such a bright shining star 🌟 I absolutely adore my Tea time with you!! Cheers!! Much Joy and Gratitude!! 🧚♀️💖
Saturday’s for me in Australia
Not at all too long for adding to a collective of inspiration!!
The journals I’ve made for gifts were in random books I found then decorated/personalised… time to try making my own.
There are no mistakes when we use art as an adventure…
Love your light ✌️
So, so beautiful 😻💖🤩, always the best solution to simply create what you need, the greatest magic, isn’t it 💫🌟💫?

I think you are brilliant, beautiful and inspiring. Thank you for sharing your beautiful world. Your art is magical!
I LOVE your vlogs on journaling. I wish that they ALL had subtitles/closed captioning so I could hear them better.
Ive said it before and I will say it again...your videos can never be too long Wendy I could sit and listen to you all day..if peop,e dont like it they can wizz to the end. Lady Moon time what a beautiful name for what ails us ladies, although personally thats one benefit of a more senior time of life woo hoo....no more!!! Have a lovely day🤗
So glad I found your station
You are always inspiring.
Thank you thank you thank you.
Hope your heat stays on
How I love happy accidents. Seems fate has drawn me to your door Wendy. Who would have guessed that your tidying up your studio, in your last post would draw me in.

So glad I went back and found the how you made your book! Love this!!!!
I get a cigar box and make a journal to fit into it! Great handmade gifts
Oh yes...I do this too. So easy to create a matching box for the journal. The first time I did a cigar box I almost felt guilty because it's quick and simple...then I thought "why feel guilty?", it gives me more time to concentrate on the journal. Great suggestion!
This video is super cute! I got plenty spare paper! Journal here it comes 📝
I love making my junk journals this way, I do it all the time and I write, color, play everyday in mine ❤️ this was fun!
If you think I'm gonna sit down and watch +1h of Wendy talking about how she binds some paper together to make a book... you are absolutely *right*. 😍
lols!! tee hee!!!
Long, short, doesn't matter, they are inspiring and for that I am very grateful. Thank you friend. ❤

I am certainly cacooning...I recieved an awesome journal ready made from my sister ..so detailed..from..or rather is a panda one?/..I am looking forward to yours ..a Journal junkies ..fauder..Thank u fro your inspirations........so new doing art on canvas rather than on people..so exciting...except when u put glitter glue instead of eye drops......Thanks for guiding me and believing in the ways..you are Lovely...Love from Canada
Seeing your processes is instructive, oftentimes I get caught up in measuring and lose the joy! Blessed and safe days!
Absolutely smoothing! I was having a thunder cloud of a morning and watching this made it absolutely more tolerable. Your 3-photo glass frame I got 2 days ago at Hobby Lobby for your recently purchased treasures from your Etsy shop I purchased, fell and broke.
Wendy I'm convinced you're a Fairy a flower fairy one. Beautiful journal can't wait for you to use it have a lovely weekend gorgeous girl love to you and James 💜💜💜
I love your channel thank you for letting us in to enjoy your thoughts and actions 💛
I am definitely in the peculating stage right now LOL. I've been in it for most of two years now and really need to try to start doing more so I can try to break out of it and do more art. Now is a good time to plant some seeds for next year. I love making my own journals because you can make them the size you want and use the paper you want in them so they are customized to your preferences.
Hi Wendy, so enJOYing watching this as I brush my Love knots out and Dreaming about fun new things after intense year ...Just finished gathering some Spider plant babies and popping them in Tea cups till they grow a few more roots..and i always feel Brighter after that... even that feels like a Sign of the New things to come ... You inspire Me to have go xx Grizi x
i love, love, love this video & series!!!! :)) also enjoy the positive, light weight vibes and actually watched it several times & made my own journal too💜thank you 4 making this wendy! hope there is more to come like this ☺best wishes
Was able to watch it so it looks like TH-cam did their thing. ☺️ I really enjoyed the video! They’re never too long! ❤️
Yay! Thank you!xxx
There are a lot of eclipses and full moons coming up, this always interrupts my sleep:)
I love your voice and great videos! Entertaining!
I really love this idea as an art journal Wendy! I'm looking forward to seeing some of your entries, and am going to follow along with you after I construct my own art journal as well! This seems to be a great way to use and enjoy the beautiful and various papers that I have recently purchased! Thank you!
Oh my goodness, I just found your channel last night and I couldn't believe in your unboxing video just now...I have the EXACT same bookbinding kit, corner rounder AND alphabet stamp set!! There are no coincidences!! Glad I found you, Wendy!
You are just so so lovely I can feel your lovely energy from here. Thanks for sharing it just goes to show you if you need something uncomplicated quick natural and beautiful to put all your thoughts into ....that is exactly how you whip it up. Blessed Be
Really enjoyed this Wendy, thanks so much! I got a fab idea for how to complete a difficult page in my art journal just watching this….I moved from percolate to finished page x
I'm an art beginner I had a burst of creating for a couple of weeks and now I've stopped. I have really bad anxiety and depression and find doing art so therapeutic. But I'm having problems being motivated to do art right now. Then when you mentioned the 'percolating stage' I thought yeah maybe that's it. I do feel a bit out of ideas so I'm definitely waiting for inspiration to hit. I do find watching others create helpful and calming too.
Thank you so much for sharing all your wonderful thought processes. It is so reassuring and motivating to watch someone have so much fun creating something that may nit be perfect but brings you joy xx
wonderful video Wendy - thank you for sharing your process and inspiring me to have a go!
Beautiful! So fun to watch you create!
That piece of art to the left of you is so beautiful 😍 ( my left ) can’t take my eyes of it xx
You are so inspiring. I first watched you beginning over a year or so ago. New to TH-cam, I explored and explored. Like you, I love all manner of self expression, and appreciate the benefits. The result was returning to your videos about combining everything, art, writing, crafting, and Journaling . You are delightful. Thank you.
Sooooooo beautiful and enjoyable to watch, thank you for sharing your process! Your videos and art bring me so much joy
I loved this. It was inspiring to watch you create your own journal and do it without fretting over trying to do it perfectly. And yet, it did indeed turn out beautiful. I'm hooked on making my own since the pandemic started. I doubt I'll go back to buying them as it's so satisfying making your own. Enjoy. 💌✍️📖
Loved this! Thankyou!
Wobbly jobs are often the best 😁❤
🤭🤭😬🤣🤣😆
Hi Wendy👋 Glad you came into work, had a cuppa w us, made a journal! I'm liking the idea you have of pulling out from the old journals to repurpose! Bringing forward the things that are meaningful to you, were your at now.🙂❤ Happy Journaling!🍁
Thank you Wendy that was so inspiring and uplifting. Beautiful ideas and advice. Best wishes from Jenny in Adelaide South Australia
That journal is so pretty!🌺💕 Looking forward to see how you're going to fill it!😝
Thans i love tour videoes❤❤
This video was so amazing. I learned so much. Great job Wendy. I never looked at Journaling as being magical and making your dreams come true. My mother just passed away Sunday. The funeral is Dec. 3. This video gave me a chance to escape, even just for a moment. I need to journal. I tried over the years and just get bored with the process. Maybe now I can look at it in a different light. See you in the next video. Trying to keep my head up high and letting my light shine. My Mom died with Alztheimers. Thanks again for the fun light hearted video. ♥️🎨
Sending you Love to see you through your grieving process... Be gentle with yourself! 💛💫🌟
@@love-light369 Thank you so much Wendy. 💖
