Hi Gayle I really enjoy the flip through gorgeous journals as I said in your last video that I would love one I grew up with Dick and Jane and my color is purple again thank you for sharing have a bless one happy creating enjoy her vacation🌞
Gayle, I binged my way through your LGB videos and then, blow me down, I found Paula Foerder's run through of your little Paper Doll Golden Book and how she had added to it..... I have got to say, the two of you made an amazing team.... I loved what you did in this book, and I loved what she also did in this book... thank you so much for sharing your talent with us.
Just adorable Gayle. Love the papers and all the cute little additions of the other children's books. Really cute idea of the Band-Aid in the Dr. Dan book. My favorite ephemera in these books are the sweet belly bands made from the squares of fabric. Love them all. They each have their own special personalities and special Gayle touches.
Gayle - Thank You for the inspiration! I watched you create these super cute books. I found 5 LGB books at my local dollar used bookstore. Can’t wait to create journal. - ❤️ Crystal.
Beautiful books and a wonderful craft with me series. Thank you for the craft with me videos, it's so relaxing to listen to your cheerful thinking while you work. Thank you for all the knowledge you share about making the journals as you craft. You are so kind to share your knowledge. People like you are a treasure. I appreciate you so much.
Oh this has been such fun following your crafting adventure. You are a darling one! As you go thru each book I listen to the crinkle of your coffee died pages as you turn each one with care and it takes me back to crafting with my Aunt Opal when I was young. Thanks for the fun time. Enjoy your travels, pick up some fun things along the way, but hurry back. Not sure what I will watch with you gone. With Love, from one of your newest fans Evadene
Paper dolls..second signature..coffee dyed paper just before the hermalinda tag...diamond marks..did you notice the big coffee stain that looks like a smiley face on both sides or did you make him...too cute!!!!! You are without a doubt the most creative person i "know". Love your books!!!!
D Jacobsen haha! I didn't notice the smiley face. I'm going to have to watch the video back and see that!! It wasn't on purpose at all, but oh so fun!! ❤️
These are so adorable! Gets me excited about my next journal. Can't wait to try the buttons on the spine - I'll remember the "thread out of the needle" tip 😊! Thanks so much for these great videos, Gayle! Have a great vacation!!
So good to see all the books completed. I have enjoyed immensely being able to watch your progress along the way and the finished results are just great. Thankyou for sharing all your hard work with us.
LOVE that Summer paper oh my gosh ... each of them are amazing and inspiring ENJOY your holiday and I am so looking forward to what inspiration you have when you come back
They all came out beautifully! I'm so happy that I was there right along with you in your videos. Watching this flip through, I would say Yup I remember that, or I'll have to remember to do that! I've learn so much Ms.Gayle.I had to laugh with you the next day when you brought up the button crisis. My thought when I was watching it, Listen learn: Test your buttons before hand. Then your comments of threading the buttons without the needle first, then through the spine. Hahaha... who knew? Subbies knew! Funny!!! Have a great day today Ms.Gayle. I'can't wait to see the surprise video before your vacation! Hugs my friend. ~Liz~
It was SO fun watching the different steps to make these fun fun books, I for sure what to be on your list for the next batch! I got my Paper doll book the other day...:) Sandy
Hi Sue! Thanks for the comment! I've been wanting to ask you if it's okay that I use that little dress as a template for other patterned papers. I do always give you credit whether I've printed out yours or traced one. But please be honest, if it's an infringement of any kind, I don't want to do it! If you'd rather communicate on this privately my email is Gayle.agostinelli@gmail.com. Thanks for letting me know! And...I just want to tell you that I think your journals are just exceptional! I always love seeing a new video from you. You have such wonderful ideas! ❤️
Hi Gayle, Thank you for your kind words.Yes, you are fine with how you are using them. It is always fun to watch your videos, and then I am like, Oh, I heard my name, that is so cool :) You are an inspiration to all of your viewers. Hugs
They are all just adorable! My very favorite is the last one, love the shabby chic theme! It was so much fun to follow you on this journey ❤️ Oooh vacation - that’s great! Enjoy your time, but I’m gonna miss you 😄
That fabric in the Dr Dan book is sooooo adorable!!! Love all of these!! I’ve been making some! I’m gonna have to go watch this entire series for sure!! ❤️ I still haven’t learned to use my sewing machine yet lol so I was afraid the tutorials may all be geared toward that but it looks like I could def take away a lot from this! Soooo beautiful as always!
Oh my, they are all beautiful. I'm one of the lucky ones who got one of these. I almost didn't want to watch as kind of wanted to be surprised, but just couldn't resist. I can hardly wait for it to arrive and I have it to actually touch!! Thank you so much for sharing the journey to these Gayle.
Gayle.... those books are Beautiful! I just love watching your videos and look forward to them. I’m happy you are getting a vacation but what will we do without our Gayle?! lol
Damn I love these Little Golden Books and I just want you to know Tuesday January 14th we are getting a rabbit and we're going to call him Mister rabbit so I'm looking for rabbit stuff let me know we're very excited
Beautiful Gayle. I don't know how you can part with them! Love the fabric belly bands. Do you have a tutorial on them? Do you sew the fabric to a strip of paper or how do you stabalize the fabric or maybe you don't need to?? Have a great vacation.
Thank you, Julie! Yes I think I have either a tutorial or craft with me on snippet trims or rolls. I sew on to a strip of fabric about two inches wide, so that provides the base. 😄❤️
The LGB's are wonderful, I love them. I have to say I've seen many books by you & others, Gayle you out did yourself with these books they are beautiful. The flower paper hit the spot in the books, no other paper would of done it. The add in pieces were fit for the books, the best. The material fit in so well, not to much but enough with the colors. Oh Gayle nicely done, even & balance to be entertained. Thank you for the journey. Where did you get the beautiful flower paper ??? It's what I've been looking for to do a nostalgia book. THX for sharing.
just gorjuuuus , love love the journal so much thought and great choice of papers , can you tell me what floral papers you used on Tootle please , whoever gets these journals will be so pleased to own one , I know i would be ..........
Hello Gayle....I have just come across this fabulous video of your work....theses journals are so much fun! Can you tell me where I can get the “this book belongs to” tags? I will be going to your tutorials to watch the process
Also what does LGB stand for?....I live in the UK and you have so much more in the way of craft stores, I would love to come to America just to visit Hobby Lobby and the other shops just to stock up on crafting materials...they are so cheap in comparison to here!
I have learned so, so much from watching you work on these! Question - how do people use the flips? I see they are also a corner pocket or tuck spot, but do people lift up the flip and journal on the blank paper when it's actually their own journal?
Hi Judith! Yes exactly. The little flip up just provides a small little spot for journaling. Maybe a favorite memory or quote or something like that. Really just an element of interest to provide a fun little "secret" spot for journaling. ❤️
I’m making a golden book Journal. The pages are very fragile. I want to use the pages to tell the story but they need to be supported. Any ideas on how?
Hi Deb! I put you on the list for next time. Not sure when that will be as I have other custom orders to get done, but I’ll let you know for sure and give you right of first refusal! Thanks so much for your interest! ❤️
Barb, sorry to be so late responding! I just saw your comment. I use Tim Holts closures. I have seen You Tubes where people make their own hitch post fasteners out of brads. Maybe you can do a search and find the homemade instructions. Thanks for watching! ❤️
Ms Gayle..HELP..please...if you already posted a video i missed it and cant find it. I just bought my first LGB. tried to remove pages to use entire story as you do. :( bad job. They came out as seperate pages or 2s n 3s. Its a MESS!!! i think its ruined. How do you do this please? Also where do you get the O rings if you want to make like a binder but dont have 10$ cookbooks etc. Thank you
I have an older video called LGB - Signature with Story Intact which should help. I hope! 😁. Just keep at it. You’ll get it sorted out. I don’t know about o rings. Maybe you’re local craft store. I’ve not made a journal with them, so am of no help. Good luck with your LGB! ❤️
Gayle Agostinelli just went over and found it..OH WOW..that was too easy..lol!!! My book is jungle book..disney wonderful world of reading...it was glued!! No staples...thats what messed me up tearing pages apart. Thank you!!!! I will go watch the rest of that video
Eileen, I’m sorry for the late response. I just now saw your comment. My Etsy is: Https://www.etsy.com/shop/CinnamonT You can send me a conversation there. ❤️
Gayle, please forgive the accidental “dislike”. I’m following your tutorial on LGB journal-creating, and in rotating my phone, I accidentally hit the “dislike” button! I love all of your videos!
I have a tutorial on my channel (under my Tutorial playlist) called Tutorial-How to Sew Buttons on the Spine. It will show you in detail how to do it! ❤️
How do copyright laws apply to using unaltered book fronts like this. I love them but another is really stressed about her books and this very thing. Maybe you can shed some light.
Susan, I’m not a lawyer, but here are my thoughts. First, there are many sellers on Etsy, thrift stores, antique stores etc that are selling LGB. I don’t see this as different. I’m altering the book, but I’m not claiming the original book as my own art. I always give credit to LGB and/or the original artist. Yes, I’m reselling the book, but LGB and the author don’t get any monetary benefit from thrifts stores and such either. That said, I don’t sell Disney or the Muppets, those types of companies just to be safe. Hope that helps. ❤️

Gayle Agostinelli That is exactly how I see it. It's no different than reselling a book at a thrift store. I believe the bruhaha comes when you copy and sell. This girl, izzybee made five books and feels she can't sell them now. Just breaks my heart. TY
Hi Gayle! It looks like you had a lot of fun making those! They're adorable!!
5 beautiful books made with love! TFS!
I love each of these. They are all unique. Enjoy your vacation!
So fun Gayle! They are all fabulous! Congrats to the new owners! Hugs, Pamela

Hello Gayle....I have just come across this fabulous video of your work....theses journals are so much fun!
Can you tell me where I can get the “this book belongs to” tags?
I will be going to your tutorials to watch the process
Kathy Knill I made the "this book belongs to" tags using a rubber stamp for Hobby Lobby with the words and a Graphic 45 stamp for the children. ❤️
Also what does LGB stand for?....I live in the UK and you have so much more in the way of craft stores, I would love to come to America just to visit Hobby Lobby and the other shops just to stock up on crafting materials...they are so cheap in comparison to here!
Kathy Knill LGB is just my little abbreviation for Little Golden Book. 😄❤️

I’m making a golden book Journal. The pages are very fragile. I want to use the pages to tell the story but they need to be supported. Any ideas on how?
Oh no, already spoken for? How do I get on your list? I wanted one so bad! Love your work Gayle! xo
Hi Deb! I put you on the list for next time. Not sure when that will be as I have other custom orders to get done, but I’ll let you know for sure and give you right of first refusal! Thanks so much for your interest! ❤️
Awe, thank you Gayle! Love your journals so much! ♥
Can you tell me where you get your closures for your journals. I am having a hard time finding something other than Tim Holtz.
