As I was watching the video I heard the birds in the background and it sounded like they were investigating and their calls were sounding like they were closer at times. Oh the love birds! Thank you for plugging along and leaving the knowledge of the birds being out til the end.
Good morning Pam & Sunny🤗 Awesome tutorial, love the idea of putting the cheese cloth in the spine. Will be praying for the love birds hope they get back in their cage. Have a good day! 💕
Those ridges on the spines of hand bound books are integral to the function of the book, attaching the cover to the text block of stitched signatures. The cover you have appears to have “false cords” which became a style when they stopped using those methods to attach covers to books. Often they used a piece of cheesecloth or linen between the cover lining and glued to the spine of the text block to reinforce the opening and closing of the cover. It was a cheaper way to replace the linen bands or cords used for binding the text block with stitches.
@@ThePaperOutpost you’re quite welcome! My mom (and myself through watching her and reading) have studied how books were made historically because we are both fascinated by book binding. I don’t remember all the terminology, but functionally, hand bound books were designed to last hundreds of years. For example, they used a starch glue, (basically wheat starch cooked in water till it is a gel) because that was ph neutral. Now, you can buy PH neutral pva, but the drawback is that you can’t re-wet and reposition anything with pva because it’s basically permanent. Some really old printed books were printed on large sheets, folded, bound, and then the last step was to cut the pages apart, which left that uneven deckle edge we so love. 💕
Oh! And the gilded tops on books were also functional for when they started shelving them upright. It reduces dust collection because the surface was smooth when the book was closed. Then they could be dusted. Who knew!
Love this! Just FYI: Personally, I wouldn't mind having to watch longer videos from you! I get wrapped up 8n what your doing & listening to your voice; So when it's done... I get a bit sad! IDK about anyone else, but I'd certainly watch through videos at least an hour long! LOL! ~🙏💙🙏~
Good morning Miss Pam... and it's always a good morning when I can start the day having my breakfast and watching you create! Hope you don't have too difficult a time rounding up your birdies.
Very good guess, Pam! Shakespeare in Autumn, Plays - in Hungarian, as far as I can deduce, but someone might give us more info So enjoying this neutral pallet ✨️ 🐾 good thing you're there, to keep the birds in check, Sunbuns 🦜 hello from Denmark 🌸❄️
I'm starting a pink journal this morning, and the companionable chatter of Paper Outpost keeps me going. I'm using a wheat thins box as my substrate, and really having fun. Here's to reckless abandon!👍
Happy Monday! I am loving this series. Will look forward the continuing adventures of Pam and Sunny. So much to learn. Thank you for sharing your expertise...the good with the bad that you wrangle to the ground and fix it! WooHoo! 👍🏻💪🏻 📚📖🥰
i love watching when you make these series. it really makes me excited for the next one and you always include some new ingenious tip or trick in each one. They never get old. Everyone have a great week❤
Good morning everyone! Trust me when I say you will learn everything you need to know about junk journaling and more! She is the best! Pam I am loving this journal so far. I love the neutral colors that you will be using. Hope you retrieved your Love birds! Tyfs! Extra love to Sunny! Job well done!❤
Good morning Pam!💕Coffee and Pam to cheer me up on a rainy day. 🤗 I dearly love watching journals coming together. 😊 I spent an hour last night going through my box of covers trying to find a 6” x 9”. I kept measuring, putting back, going back through through them (as if the size would change 😄) then more thinking and measuring. Enjoying this series! Have great Monday everyone! 💕
Can't wait to see how this one transforms into your beautiful journal. Love the look of neutrals and nature. Have a great day and hope Sunny stays warm in his sun spot. Not much sun here in Seattle. Snow and rain and cold (34 degrees). Take care!!
I keep watching & learning. I really enjoy your crafting tutorials both new like this & all the old ones I have seen. Thanks for all your hard work Pam.
Oh boy, I read an early comment that the birds were out, and I couldn't quite relax until your comment (Pam) that you got them. That can be stressful for birds, and birds Mammas!
This is probably a really silly comment, but I have to say THANK YOU for changing your nail color! Those white tips made it hard to see what you were doing, 😂 though I would never have presumed to ask you to change them! Great video as always Pam!
I always get so much inspiration from your videos Pam! As I was watching you pick out papers for the signature, I had an idea l… use the 2 smaller papers, place them horizontally and stacked; so that the first paper is in front, and at the bottom of the signature and the second closest to the top. Then just add glue to the sides and bottom (where the pages meet/overlap) to turn the 2 pages into a pocket. I don’t k ow if that makes sense 🤔 I am really enjoying the neutral journal follow along format. Thanks so much! PS- I LOVE Cracklin Oat Bran! Lol 😆 🤤
Thank you for showing the process again, Pam! I love your Christmas red nails! So festive! Is your Christmas tree up yet? The Lovebirds might be hiding in there! 😉
I do hidden spines frequently. Seeing you make one is so helpful. I enjoy seeing your process from start to finish. Nice to see I’m not the only one that starts the day with you!😊
Olfa Rotary Cutters makes a pinking edge that allows you to get closer to your edges. Please, be sure to read their instructions, these blades are wicked sharp and always use the cutting matt to protect your table top.

Didn’t you know, that’s Pam’s soundtrack? She played it just for you. 🤣 Most of us like the Pam chatter with her birds and dog as counterparts. It becomes a symphony of reckless abandon and is all part of the chaos charm! (My motto is keep scrolling and no trolling for videos I don’t like. 😉)
I am just relaxing. Was up all night till about 5 a.m. watching some other crazy lady (and her little dog too!). make beautiful Junk Journals.
This is fun. I could watch twice the time.
The love birds are out! Love that!!!
I’m not neutral about this series…. I’m so excited. Not rushing just enjoying the journey. I hope the lovebirds enjoyed their adventure 🥰

Sunny is too funny and so are you, Pam. 🤣🤣🤣
Good morning Pam & Sunny🤗
Awesome tutorial, love the idea of putting the cheese cloth in the spine. Will be praying for the love birds hope they get back in their cage. Have a good day! 💕
I enjoy how you say " it's okay", which is when you create. I think I am finally getting it.
Oh how I love the covers of old books!
Hello Pam & Sunshine, enjoyed watching, thanks for sharing,
Oh my gosh!! The birds!! 🦜🦜
There are always tips & tricks we can learn from watching different artists. TFS.🐞 Namaste 🥰

Love this series ❤️

Sure do wish you’d cheated and used the first book. Please do a “cheat version “❣️It would be much easier for me and I could make a few more faster.
🐦🐦🦜 Oh My 🦜🐦🐦 Mom🐕!!!!
It's not cheating if there are no rules lol 😃
Yes it’s Hungarian.
I sometimes wish I had the first journals I made BECAUSE I would do a much much much better job making the spines. Oh well, none of the recipients had ever seen or heard of JJs so only the KNOWS KNOWS lol
Red is considered a neutral color did you know that
It should be Hungarian.
Don't cover the inside of the book its pretty
What is screeching ! How distracting! Won’t be watching this site anymore
