I hope you enjoy watching and that it inspires you to repurpose something for fun. Thank you very much for watching. Please like and subscribe if you enjoyed this video.

Thank you - I really loved making this one. Unfortunately, I traded this journal and it's living in France right now. I looked to see if I took a photo of the bag and didn't find one. Sometimes remembering to take pictures is the hardest part. LOL. Thanks for watching -

So simple, but I love the pen in the pocket! You are young....I could not wear jeans to class until college! :)
Precious journal! Tfs
Was checking out different junk journals and came across your video. Just love this denim junk journal and how you recycled your shorts -especially the tassel! 👍🏻👍🏻 Just gorgeous overall! Thanks for sharing 💕 warmly, Lynne from Scrapbook Sundries
Thank you! This was a very fun project - I really enjoyed it and all the extras were inspired by the shorts and going through my stash - it's amazing sometimes what is hidden there. Thanks for watching and commenting! Very appreciated.
The cutest junk journal ever i want to make my own now💘💙
Thank you! I hope you do make one - I usually create as I go and add and add - just have fun. Thanks for watching.
Awesome job Kelly. Love how this turned out. tfs
Hi Debbie - thanks so much for watching - I'm very out of practice but loved making this journal - you've been doing some gorgeous work too. Love it all.
Gorgeous!!
Thank you so much!
Ms. Kelly, I love watching your junk journal videos (along with your stitching vids) but I wonder if you could offer suggestions on how to use them in our everyday lives. They have beautiful tags and clips that are just lovely, but again, what would be a couple of practical ideas for those? Jot down little notes, glue things like ticket stubs etc? I'd love to try junk journaling oneday, so getting a good mental visual of how I could use and appreciate them would inspire me to perhaps create one of my own in the future.Your videos are very inspiring! You are a true artist. Thank you!
Hello again! I can certainly do a journal with me video and give some ideas on using this kind of journal. It would make me happy. Thank you - I loved making this journal - I forgot how much I love the feel of denim and it makes the journal extra soft and tactile. (that is one of the greatest things about the journals - just handling them and turning the pages - very therapeutic.) Thank you for the kind compliment - and for watching - happy creating.
I absolutely love your denim junk journal! It's like you read my mind for a denim junk journal that I've been stocking up on to make lol except for the tassel... which I loooove! I will definitely have to try fraying some denim and attempt one myself! Your whole project turned out really awesome! Tfs hugs Renee
Thanks Renee for such a kind comment - the journal was fun to make and has so much more potential - you should definitely try one. Thanks for watching -
love ,love ,love .awesome job .I am making one as we speak and yours is so nice .great job .ode to blue jeans :)
yay - go blue jeans - I loved making this one - have fun! Thanks for watching - happy crafting!
Love this Kelly!! Absolutely gorgeous!! Your partner is VERY lucky to get this!!
Hugs Marsha
Thanks Marsha - I appreciate that - so anxious when it comes to trading stuff. TFW - Big Hugs, Kelly
The cover is a masterpiece all on it's own!! I really like all the creative and new ideas you included. I enjoyed your video and I subscribed to your channel too. 😊
Thank you so very much - Making these journals is just a blast and a great way to try out ideas. I'm glad you enjoyed it and thank you for subscribing.
how very amazingggg how can some people put dislake to this amazing art?
Some people are unhappy - others may just hit the wrong icon. I don't know - I just figure if it makes someone feel better to try and do damage to someone's confidence - it may as well be me - I try not to let it bother me. I do these things because they make me happy and I share in the hope that someone else may try to create something too - I know it makes me feel much better to sit and work on these things. I truly appreciate your comment - thank you for watching.
So pretty! Tfs😀
Thank you! and Thank you for watching - happy crafting!
Hello Kelly,amazing journal so absolutely creative and the details are on point girl. I just found you and had to watch this video I was born in 1960 so I was a child in the sixty's to.i could wear jeans though. Well I subbed so I'll be back crafty lady!😊😊😊
Hi Patty. Thank you - I feel bad that I've been away for so long - I've had the flu thing since before Christmas and just can't seem to shake it - cough, when I talk so videos right now, don't work. I will try to do more hopefully soon. Thanks for watching! Take care.
beautiful. lucky recipient. how did u fray it
To fray the denim you just start on the cut edge and begin pulling the weft threads which leaves the warp threads loose. I usually will sit and pick at the threads with a pin to be able to pull them. Thanks for watching!
Another adorable journal! Is there a book or website that has information on junk journals? I would love to try & make one. Thanks for sharing this project. 🤗
Sharon
Hi Sharon - I'm glad you like it - there are loads of very talented junk journal makers here on TH-cam - I'm not an expert - I love delygirl1961 and Jibid Neary - they are really good. Many people use pre-made downloadable kits (delygirl1961 makes her own and sells on ETSY). I have never used those kits though - I have always tea dyed or stained my own paper and printed my own images off the internet. I am happy to help you through it the best that I can if you have questions. (and the crafting community - like the stitching community is very friendly and helpful) Thanks for watching - Kelly
Love the jean tags
I was born in 1957. It was the hippy movement that started the blue jeans revolution.
How could u part with this awesome journal? Esp since the shorts had so many memories? It is truly magnificent. TFS
Thank you so much! It wasn't easy to decide to cut the shorts up - but I will never be able to wear them again - so they went to a good cause - crafting! I made a bag for the journal out of the rest of the shorts so - nothing was wasted - yay! Happy Crafting - thanks for watching.
Would love to see the bag❤
So adorable ♥️ New subbie here and such a great journal 🌺 Tfs Hugs & Blessings from AZ 😘🌵🇺🇸🌞🌴🌺
Hi Denise - thank you so much - many blessings!
What a gorgeous and wonderful journal. So much treasures seriously in love with this! 💛 New subbie, glad I found you ☺
Thank you so much - and thank you for subscribing. Take care.
Some neat ideas. Did you use anything inside the denim cover? For stiffiner. I love your creativity
Thank you very much Mary. I think I used part of a manila folder inside the fabric to give it stability. Thanks for watching - take care - happy crafting.
I was born in the late 50's. Through grade school, we could wear pants on Friday, but never denim. In high school, we could wear pants any day, but denim on Fridays only. Funny rules to look back on.
It is funny to look back and see just how much things have changed. Thanks for watching!
Very nice.
Thank you - fun to make. Thank you for watching!
❤❤❤❤
This is amazing how did you attach the denim to cover its brilliant xx new subscriber
Hi Lottie - I used part of a file folder as the base and encased it with denim by sewing around the outside edges. I had a lot of fun with this one - I love adding on unexpected things. I'm glad you enjoyed it - thanks for watching and happy journaling!
I'm in love with this and just subscribed!
I LOVE jeans! I found your video looking for blue jean junk journals. In fact, some even bear my middle name: Lee! TFS.
Just out of curiosity. You're talking about the journal like you're going to sell it. Or, looking at the date, maybe even sold it. But it was made from your favorite jeans. Why didn't you just keep it for yourself?
I'm glad you found my video and I hope you enjoyed it. It was one of the most fun journals that I've made. Good luck and have fun!
