I keep a small 3×4 booklet nextto where I sit & watch utube videos on junk journalling. I jot down EVERYTHING I want to remember---a glue name, website, paint name, book, quote, instructions, etc. I sometimes put some of the information into a more permanent place, but keeping a small book handy will reward you many times over.

[@debbiebreen6276]

This is a great idea, I also keep a journal of all of pam ideas, as pam makes them on utube, I make them as well, then I slip into plastic pockets into a ring binder and can look back at what was made on that utube. Thanks for sharing.

[@heidiallain6053]

I just looked it up and…. Moths are in the insect Order Lepidoptera, and share this Order with Butterflies. There are some 160,000 species of moths in the world, compared to 17,500 species of butterflies.”

[@tylondon6065]

Nature's Sketchbook by Marjolien Bastin. A beautiful book of her sketches to treasure, along with Edith Holden.

[@karinpost9176]

Yes, when I bought that I mistook it for Edith Holden!

[@lindseyvallade616]

Your videos are so therapeutic. I even use them to fall asleep too. Thank you for putting out videos. And your puppers is too cute for words

[@heidiholler3197]

Sunshine is soo cute! I love the Sunshine commentary… adorable and funny !!!

[@Aleta432]

“A Floral ABC” by Elizabeth Cameron is a beautifully crafted book written to her grandchildren. A flower for each letter of the alphabet. I haven’t taken scissors to it yet😩

[@lericamims]

We love you Sunny!

[@danabinkley7337]

Digi print idea. Vintage heavy machinery. Steam shovels, tractors. And that fish . Different kinds of fish.

[@stephb200]

Such loveliness. Thank you for sharing.

[@wendythomas8219]

Best book I’ve found is “secrets of a Devon wood , my nature journal” by Jo Brown. Fabulous fabulous book.😊

[@daphneplucken-hollard6388]

Thank you for lifting my spirit now my dad just passed away.My goal is to create beautiful journals and ephemra to share with my family under the Christmas tree.xxxx

[@asddsa28]

Ok I have a bunch of books I have fond that have beautiful illustrations I will list them here. - Flowers of the World by Frances Perry illustrated by Leslie Greenwood - A Potpourri of Garden Treasures by Michal sparks - The encyclopedia of Everlasting by Barbra Radcliffe Rogers - Born in the Spring by June caver Roberts Theses are the book I have found at library books sales through the years. I suggest looking at your local library book sales if you have them. You be amazed what’s out there.

[@KellyC766]

I love that your a fellow tree hugger! ❤

[@misskit866]

Oh Pam, I've missed you. I've been trying to watch less youtube, but I was tempted by you. When I heard your "conversation" at the yard sale, I felt right at home.

[@joanneroot8990]

Hi Pam, love your channel. I googled Edith Holden and it said she lived to be 48 years old. Her work is incredible and thanks for introducing me to her work. Happy Crafting!🐾

[@PamelaJensentheoneandonly]

Thank you for sharing.

[@DeniseS-6867]

Beautiful💙

[@birgitfulda7343]

Hi Pam and Sunshine, "The Country Flowers of a Victorian Lady" by Fanny Robinson has lovely flower illustrations. Love all your wonderful idea's!

[@tootsie2]

I keep document files on my phone. I keep one for things I'm looking for in thrift stores. I keep one for ideas...etc. I can send to my emails as a PDF and can download to my computer and print. Keeping lists and ideas on my phone makes it easier to keep up with. I lose my written notes so much. 😊

[@gatheringthymeandgrace1668]

" The Season's" by Louis Lawrence compiled 1887-1890, first published 1981. This book has beautiful drawings, the poetry is very much from the 19th century perspective. The script is beautiful and most art work is sepia. Over all a beautiful book for junk journaling.

[@jackiecrafts17]

I recently purchased Janet Marsh’s Nature Diary book and I love it!

[@koenstracy]

What a great video and the comments listing other books is a great resource. I will have to check back often. I have purchased the Natures Diary by Janet Marsh. I would love to see a video on distressing paper and other objects like paper clips and safety pins. 😊

[@lalagamma4452]

Thank you for your help!! Huge hugs, Namesta 🐞🥰

[@friendsaprons8659]

Flowers of the Countryside by Marjorie Blamey (1980) very nice illustrations

[@rach-kelv05]

Portrait of a Garden, Kerry Carman she accident that caused a spinal injury and this diary is a record of her time of recovery watching the changing seasons and beauty from her bedroom window, this is a New Zealand garden diary.... lots of black and white flowers, plants, etc but also lots of colour. A Touch of Nature also a New Zealand book, which has some beautiful pictures ❤ Love the Janet Marsh book you showed Pam, so beautifully put together, and some lovely botanicals and wildlife ..... Another beautiful book is Joyce Blake's World of Flowers, and, you guessed it, it is another book from a New Zealand author 🤣. Loved this video, and the suggestions of others are awesome!!! Thanks 😊

[@twinthinguk3621]

i picked up a copy of the Diary of an Edwardian Lady yesterday at a charity shop for £1 ( here in the uk) and have already been using images for multimedia art . I had a Janet Marsh book before and it was just as lovely x

[@beverlynielsen6714]

Hi Pam. I purchased a book called Wildflowers of Britain month by month. It is by Margaret Erskine Wilson who was a painter and studied in London, England.She painted over a 45 year period and died in 2009.

[@JennCadyFiddlyBits]

I bought that book too! I ended up with a copy that was about five inches by six inches not realizing it wasn’t a big book. 😂!!!

[@Aylysh]

I got this one too. The smaller pages are great for embellishing junk journal pages in various ways.

[@beverlynielsen6714]

I know..me too! I have used some of it making pockets and journal cards etc. You could also use the pages in a mini journal. 🙂@@JennCadyFiddlyBits

[@JennCadyFiddlyBits]

@@beverlynielsen6714 Yeah, they are so precious!

[@JennCadyFiddlyBits]

@@Aylysh Good idea! they’d make great tiny envelopes too!

[@JennCadyFiddlyBits]

I miss your older videos where we just simply craft along with you for an hour while you experiment with techniques and trying things that pop into your head. I still love your videos now, but it was nice when it was just us, you, and the paper supplies for the whole video and you lost track of time. Kind of like having a friend over to make beautiful things together. I find myself gravitating toward the videos where people show what they are doing without turning most things into a tutorial or “how to.” This is not a criticism, just sharing. ❤ Love your chatter and Sunny’s pupdates! Also, I never hear Holly and the lovebirds anymore, did their cages get moved? 😢 Bless you, Pam, for trying to keep up with this crazy world! Hugs to you, Papa, and the menagerie!

[@katiekofemug]

Beatrix Potter of Peter Rabbit fame has wonderful images to use and they spill off the shelves at used / thrift stores & yard sales. Different sized versions inspire in different ways.

[@petriekaspardlov7787]

I just mentioned yesterday that we have so much lovely paper, notebooks, pads of papers; yet when we need a quick piece to jot something down , resort to an old envelope 😂 guess it is a good way to reuse 😁

[@genivilalong]

After discovering the world of junk journaling through you tube, on my first ever thrift trip to find “a cool old book” I run across the country diaries and grabbed it for $1.50 mostly because of the beautiful handwriting and pictures. I didn’t know what a treasure it was. Today I see that as a sign that I’m on the right path!! Haha

[@beckybanta126]

Dear Fellow Tree Hugger, Pam, Yes, trees "talk", especially when hugged. I love looking up into their branches. In most trees I see the brains' circulation vessels as seen at their base. Yes, I do! When you asked for (nature) journey ideas, i immediately thought of a 4 signature for the four seasons, then you said the same later......great nature minds indeed. Thank you for sharing these beautiful books & their authors!😊

[@sananmitch1]

One that I found at an estate sale: Bird, Beast & Flower (1980) - watercolors by Marie Angel, poetry selected by Ian Parsons

[@thecraftyrn]

Edith Holden lived from September 1871-March 1920. Love her books . M. Bastin books are beautiful also.

[@luztanon238]

Good morning! I have the Janet Marsh book. It's beautiful, and I ended up buying an extra one because my husband was adamant about me gutting it. Just yesterday (Tuesday), I found an Edith Holden book at my favorite thrift store!! And yes, I will buy an extra one, lol. What a treat, Pam! Thank you! 😊

[@janelwest2686]

Loved the video! Thanks for the resources! I copied them all to a document and printed it out for my next visit to the used bookstore :)

[@elizabethcherris5382]

The Concise British Flora in Colour by W. Keble Martin - beautiful drawings 💗🌸🌼

[@mouseydeb3245]

Hi Pam! 💕 Long day. Trying to get my comment in before more storms arrive. (It’s a daily thing this summer. ☹️) I’ve found some great ‘picture books’, field guides, or ‘coffee table books’ on the big books shelf at local thrift shop. Half price day twice a year. 😁 Once I get past the gotta pet it and look at it phase (which takes a while) I cut ‘em up. 😁 Have a great evening everyone! ❤️

[@karinroloff4562]

Thanks to you, Pam and all the other junk journalers out there for sharing your finds. I appreciate it............😻

[@ninniank9650]

When I was 12-14 years old I collected bugs and would pin them to cardboard ( after they were in a jar of alcohol soaked cloth). I also made my very first book of leaves , leaves were covered in contact paper, I wrote what type of plant or tree they came from.

[@Meyersci]

Same here, and 30 years later I was a Science teacher doing the same thing in teacher summer workshops! Twenty middle-aged women with kill jars, plant presses, field guides and butterfly nets get off a bus in Texas and people don't bat an eye. :-) I still have the Contac paper-covered pressed plants and will be adding them to my junk journals!

[@snotty56]

I like to use Tasha Tudor books. There are charming flowers and animals.

[@sonyasantana7385]

Pam loves all these books too. I purchased a few at really good prices too. Pam please do a video of the many ways to distress. I would love to see that.

[@sandrasheldon5407]

Love this. Copyrights protection lasts for the length of the author's life plus another 70 years.

[@margaretvogel9172]

Hi Pam , just to let you know , dear Edith died at 49 . Beautiful books , to be appreciated. Tfs

[@debbiebreen6276]

Those books are so gorgeous, so many ideas came into my head, love your ideas Pam, love to sun bun xx

In the Netherlands Marjolein Bastin & Janneke Brinkman are known for their beautiful watercolour art with plants, flowers and animals. Others famous Dutch artists are Rien Poortvliet and Anton Pieck; both famous for their drawings in vintage childrens books. Anton Piecks designs are the inspiration for the Dutch themepark "De Efteling"

[@ninkagiraudet5141]

Yes ! I am originally from holland and they would both illustrate a page in two women’s magazines. My mom had subscriptions to those magazines. If only i had known i would be a junk journal maker, i would have kept every single page. 😂😂

[@cynthiamousa8899]

[@deborahtrout8821]

I enjoyed your story telling as you went through the book, especially hugging a tree. As much as I love nature, I never thought to put my ear to a tree. ♥️🤗

[@LoreleiBell-n6m]

Wow! This was inspiring. I'm an artist and have written poems, which I've wanted to put into something. But nature journaling has become big too, and I've been working on making my own sketchbooks in order to do this. Why buy, right? Loved the ideas you presented, and all the interesting things you talked about in this one. Thank you!

[@shannonwolff2599]

Not Botanical, but if you like birds, 2 I have come across is Birds of the Northern Forest, paintings by J.F. Lansdowne, text by John A. Livingston, and Canadian Songbirds and their ways by Trudy and Jim Rising with Paintings by Katheryn DeVos-Miller. Both have awesome illustrations of birds!

[@user-zl4qk5pu6k]

Wonderful information and a great way to use the full floral pages. Thank you.

[@summerrain7466]

I found a very small book at a Goodwill that I've been using. "Irish Wild Flowers" by Ruth Isabel Ross with beautiful colored sketches.

I've found illustrated children's books in the thrift store discard that I've used. Some pages aren't usable. But hey, it's free.

[@barbaranoble9748]

[@JennCadyFiddlyBits]

Dandelions are amazing. One of the few flowers that can be in bloom and going to seed at the same time. (Yellow flowers and the poofs). Also, all parts of the dandelion are edible. Roots, leaves, stems, flowers. (Not that the seeds would taste great… 😂) There are many flowers that look like dandelion that are not quite as desirable or simply not food, but the dandelion is.

[@48juicegirl]

As a young girl I ate dandelion greens, cooked like spinach and taste great! Thanks for the memory🤗

[@JennCadyFiddlyBits]

@@48juicegirl awww, how sweet! You can sometimes buy them in the grocery store now, but man, I don’t think they water them enough cause they’re more bitter than the wild stuff! 😂

[@teresazuehls783]

Good information. I just went to a used bookstore where most of the books are just .25. I could have spent all day in there just browsing. It's a junk journalers' haven in there.😊

[@alicethomson8542]

Wow! Pur Goodwill autores have gotten expensive!

I found an old fish and game cookbook. It had old illustrations of every kind of fish! I'm using those in my own fish and game journal of my mother's and grandmother's recipes.

[@Sundies_Art]

Thank you for sharing this book. I have such a hard time purchasing an Edith Holden original and then tearing it apart. They are much too expensive in my opinion to do that, just my opinion. Also, hard to come by as well. So, it is good to know there are alternatives. Have a nice day and stay cool

[@lindaskinner3858]

Just an FYI, during the depression my mother, as a child would gather cattails to eat. She said they tasted like corn.

[@Tink70]

I never cut books (well, not ones i like), I will tear out the page, make a copy, and I keep (tuck) the original page back in the book where it came from. I do this with color books, or anything I like a lot and might want to use multiple times. I've learned so much from you and so grateful you share your learning experiences. I do this with almanacs, encyclopedias, mich more ❤❤❤
