5 Ways to Fix Ruined or Messed up Sketchbook Pages: More Hacks and Ideas to Fill up Your Sketchbook

[@lolol_axx8451]

I made a bunch of stickers that say “Mistakes are only a beauty in making.” Every time I make a horrible mistake of a drawing ✍️ I happily slap the sticker on and flip to the next page and start again.

[@WindyIris]

Those stickers sound perfect - I think we could all do with some:)

[@aavajacksonn]

I love that idea!!!

[@thesimplifestyle2022]

I do that too!( actually i stick notes with some sentences like that)

[@merii438]

[@goldenangele7913]

Sketchbooks are supposed to be messy. I like my sketchbook because it shows my personality and my mistakes. (Your tips are amazing and your sketchbook is absolutely beutiful)

[@WindyIris]

Thank you for watching:) I think sketchbooks can be whatever you want them to be - messy or neat:) I like mine to be both, messy but color coordinated.

[@goldenangele7913]

Windy Iris Art, Yes, I agree :D

[@StarlightAkari]

When I was little I had a fingerprint book signed by Ed Emberly but he misspelt my name so he asked me what my favorite animal was and I told him it was a dragon, so he scribbled over the misspelling with drawn fire and drew a dragon breathing it, then my corrected name below c:

[@WindyIris]

That's a great idea- very cool:)

[@ilovearemih4418]

Yes a good option too:)

[@nellekx]

My OCD is too strong for that option

[@distressedmegan3364]

[@MadisonPons_]

Haha 😂 lol true

[@marilyndiaz1469]

I tend to add a sticky note over the area where I messed up so I can still look back at my mistakes later by lifting up the sticky note so I can see my progress, plus it adds a pop of color

[@WindyIris]

That sounds like a good idea Marilyn - you'll be able to have the before and after on the same page:)

[@phebef28]

Marilyn Diaz : That's a great idea!! 👍😀

[@chiaramarker]

I really love these ideas, but I am one of these persons who like to come back after some time... look at the failures and then look at my new artworks to see how much I get better since then.. ^^

Thank you Ciri:) Leaving some mistakes and then coming back to them later is I agree very beneficial as well:)

I like to take acrylic paint, best are dark colours but everything works if you make it, and paint over my mistake. Like if I mess up an eye I draw a streak of black paint over it wait till it dries and then draw the eye again with a white marker. I always loved the effect this gives

I was going through that phase too so I am very happy you found the video helpful!

[@geebaleeba6861]

something i like to do is to doodle over ugly pieces and sort of vandalize it with cute little creatures or patterns, also putting a sticky note over a messed up area and drawing it again over the sticky note connecting it to the real drawing looks really cool.another thing ive done is i’ll take some paint swatch papers with the colors on them, and glue them ove a drawing maybe write or draw something on them.

[@WindyIris]

Yes vandalize ugly pages:) Love that.

[@ginnybee6388]

What I do when I mess up on a page is just work with it, maybe make it part of something a bit more abstract than what I had originally planned,but never cover it up. You did the work, frame it, no matter how bad it looks you can always make it look better.

[@WindyIris]

I like that thought, I try to make things work too - when the paper tears however its a bit more tricky and perhaps time to cover it up:)

[@lavanyalulla3348]

Windy Iris Art I either tear those pages😅 or write something on that page with big handwriting with colourful pens..

[@itsyourgirlllxoxo4894]

[@itsyourgirlllxoxo4894]

Windy Iris Art Thank you so much for replying have a great week xoxo

[@PhoebesWorldProductions]

My favourite of your tips is to cut around it. 😃 Depending on what the mistake is, you could repeat it in several parts of the page, making it look distressed, or abstract. Another idea... is to just redraw the messed up bits, maybe using a different medium in that section. (Only doable in some cases). That would make a different texture, and maybe add interest to the drawing. In the case of the messed up eye, the cover up piece, could have been an eye patch. Lots of things you can do, and you gave good ideas. 😃

[@Amy-Bo-Bamy]

Wonderful ideas! The "mess it up more" one was my favorite. :)

[@tarajade552]

Wow Thankyou!! My New Years resolution is to not rip out pages of books. And I have this huge empty sketchbook and I love deep thought out or aesthetic drawings so it takes time and there is like SO MANY pages . PS I have two 😂 thanks to you I have been inspired to make a mood journal/ book. When I am bored ( a lot ) I am going to take out the book and either paint, collage, draw and really do any form of art that expresses my feelings . And I know that is going to be messy and abstract so I won't want to cover it up. But I am clumsy and have A LOT of washi tape and it might get in paper and rip or I could spill something so ya.Also whenever I have a school project requiring art I ALWAYS mess up so now I know what to do. Anyways thanks for inspiration ( the collage thing inspired me , I dont know why I get ideas at the weirdest times but thanks anyways) and also thanks for ideas on how to get rid of mistakes

[@WindyIris]

You're very welcome Tara - I'm very glad you found the video helpful! It's my goal not to rip pages out of my sketchbook as well. Love the sound of your mood journal, I think that's a great idea. It's fun to be expressive and messy in sketchbooks:)

[@Phunie]

I found this video because my newer spiral sketchbook has micro perforated sheets and they've started tearing from the bottom up to nearly the middle of the pages and I didn't know what to do. Every time I'd turn the pages, they'd bend weirdly at the perforated edges and ultimately compromised the integrity so they just started to tear. About 25% of the beginning of the sketchbook is like this, even on pages I haven't gotten to yet. I didn't want to tear out my existing works because it's a fairly new one. Didn't occur to me to just use washi tape to hold them in place 😅 It's effective, safe for the pages, and cute! Plus side, I stumbled upon these amazing ideas and I love them all. I definitely need to do the pocket idea because I have a bunch of stuff shoved between the last page and the back of my sketchbook.

I love this video it really helped me and my friend because we mess up alot when we're drawing. A cool thing I thought about when you were talking about the eye being messed up was if you cut out a small leaf drawing and glued it to her eye then drew an eye over the leaf it would make her look like she had a leaf for an eye.

Thank you Aaron:) A leaf eye would be very cool!

I have this cheap packaging label that I use to cover my drawing and I just draw over it. Another thing I use is paint it all (my sketchbook isn't for painting but it holds it quite well enough) and start a different images in paint instead. Or just cover it up with a post-it and draw over it

[@WindyIris]

The collage is so helpful! Sometimes at school people think it’s ok to draw in MY sketchbook.... I get so annoyed when someone draws in my sketchbook.

[@WurLiix3]

Those tips are really really helpfull. When I start my sketchbooks I never know what to do with them and I end up making ugly doodles that I really hate and that have no purpose what so ever. Everytime I would turn over to that page I would be reminded of those ugly things that for the most part are at the beginning of my sketchbook and I would start to hate the hole thing and I wouldn't want to draw in it anymore. So thank's a lot for your tips!

[@WindyIris]

Glad you found the video useful:) Thanks for watching!

[@Gabi_Marie]

These are good ideas, I'll have to use them sometime :) I like to try and make pages where I tested supplies usable again, as I make quite a mess when I do that, so one thing I have done is paint over them with acrylic and then bordered it with washi tape. Then on top of the acrylic you can draw in with colored pencil or marker. I use mixed media paper so this usually works well, but you can probably just gesso it first if it's not very heavy paper.

[@xjoy1163]

Waaah. Life saver. I like the cutting and the messing up page even more. Im like so amazed. Best video

[@TheCameraLuvsMe]

I love these! I always "play it safe" with my sketchbooks and I've come to not like that because it ends up mostly just being pencil sketches and looking bland. So I want to try mixing it up more. I always have loose sheets of paper with color swatches and scrap pieces from cutouts, so I've started pasting them to fill up pages and on the back pages that I never draw on. Some artists also use sticky notes over mistakes and I find that fun to do as well. :3 thanks for the video!

[@WindyIris]

Glad you enjoyed the video, thanks for watching and leaving a comment:) Gluing on the backs of pages would be a useful technique for the backs of marker pages - there always ink showing through in my sketchbooks:)

[@tiarastokes3897]

Yeah that first page came out great! And that collage is amazing!

[@WindyIris]

Glad you enjoyed the video☺

[@Q.Q.Kachoo]

These are all great suggestions! I’ve done versions of all of these in my own journals...I have also glued pop-up elements (as in something you’d see in a pop-up book) on a troublesome page, and then when somebody comes to it, they’re distracted by the pop-up and they don’t notice the mistake at all. X^D Also, once I was in a printmaking class, and one of my classmates was having trouble with a print not turning out how she wanted it, and we were all working on a deadline and the materials were expensive, so she didn’t want to trash the print and start a new one. I suggested she just try random things to it and see how it turned out, because the worst case scenario would be if it ended up being totally unusable for her grade, which wasn’t very likely. She ended up running it through the printing press again (in another color and upside-down), throwing paint balls at it, flicking wet ink onto it with an old toothbrush, rubbing sandpaper on it, adding glitter, and even chewing on the edges! (Don’t worry, we were using 100% cotton paper, hehe.) By the time the class was done, she said it was her favorite print.

[@vasarev.6578]

I did the worst thing to my sketchbook. I got a brand new sketchbook a couple of months ago and at first it seemed perfect and I didn't want to mess it up. With all that pressure my first page didn't turn out as well as I would have liked it ... so I tried to tear it out. I messed it up so bad and also ruined the binding pretty bad. I sort of fixed it but the first page looked absolutely terrible. I went into a lot of art blocks because of it. Today I really wanted to try creating some art and when I saw the sketchbook I just got really unmotivated to do anything. I figured out a way that I can fix the sketchbook if I just cut the pages out that I didn't like....it turned out to be a nightmare! I COMPLETELY ruined the sketchbook and it's binding. I feel bad because the sketchbook was quite expensive and now I'm going to need to buy a new one....well now I know that cutting out pages is a horrible idea :(

[@WindyIris]

Oh I feel your pain, ripping sketchbook pages can completely ruin the binding. I've been there before. If you have to take out a page, you can very carefully use an exato knife and cut out the page, this will help to keep the binding intact.

[@shirleyhiggins3395]

I either collage over, cover the page with india ink and then use it as a griffiti page with coloured markers, or I do a drawing on a peice of a manufacturers sample paper that I want to try out and I glue this on top (either fully or as a flap), leaving part of the underneath image as a border, depending on the type of 'happy accident'.😋

This is super cool... I wish I would've seen this last year before I started angrily ripping ugly drawings out of my sketchbook lol. I most likely could've gotten away with the mess it up more technique! But I love all of these tips! ^_^

Glad you liked the video😀 I've ripped out so many pages in the past - in order to save my sketchbooks I had to come up some ideas.

This gives me ideas on how to use the pages with ink leeking thorough and onto the next page. Thank you!
