Craft Fair Idea #8: Chunky Notepads | Using Dollar Tree notepads | 2018

[@angelagrice8129]

I made a bunch of these to give to all the mothers at our church for Mother's Day. I packaged them with some magnetic bookmarks and a colorful pen. Everyone loved them! Thank you for all the ideas!!

[@jannie5173]

I don't even remember what I was looking for on KZbin but this video popped up and I had to watch. I love this idea. They're so cute. Thank you so much for sharing.

[@patriciazilius2289]

Omg I love ur videos. While the kids r in school I put an hour away just to watch on tv and on my iPad u r so creative and I love that u cover everything one at time. Of course doesn’t compares to urs cause I’m new at this. Do you sell ur travel books or ur stuff I really want one. Thank u for teaching me one step at a time

[@singeltonrd]

Your voice never sounds scratchy to me. It’s always smooth. Great teacher!!

[@conishkee]

Well, I am here to express to you that I went completely bananas making these notepads, just in time for Halloween treats for the kiddies instead of candies! Oh, how I think of how many moms are gonna love me for it. (LOL!) I also included little pens coordinating to the color of the cardstock I used, which I purchased from the Dollar Tree Store and then packaged them in the Clearbags I ordered from the company, thanks to you for the referral . Words cannot express enough how much I appreciate you sharing this project with us for free. Thanks Amber!

[@evareyes5524]

Love your ideas. So sweet and simple to elegant patterns .....the world is open for pattern ideas. Terrific!! Thanks for sharing.

[@colleenknudsen9590]

“Manhandle it!” :) The inside cover is a nice touch that makes a big difference. Beautiful colors.

[@jessicacoates1383]

Thank you for always sharing your great ideas! Your videos have been so helpful. It breaks my heart to see other KZbinrs basically copy your craft fair series verbatim and not give you credit. Keep up the fantastic work. You are an inspiration.

[@lyriclovercrafts]

Thank you so much, Jessica! I’m so glad you’re enjoying my videos! You’re very kind! xo Amber

[@annlee2807]

Love.... love.... love these notepads, ii could probably paper craft all day if I could get away with not doing my chores , well maybe one day. I'll just keep wishing.

[@mirif9703]

I just stumbled upon this video and was immediately taken with the idea - I just whipped up several and I love them! These will make excellent teacher gifts, or day brighteners for office friends!

[@mirif9703]

Ah yes, and thank you to the commenter who mentioned Tuesday Morning - I got a fabulous paper pack and some cute embellishments there as well.

[@loris9464]

Really cute. Great for making for personal use. As far as selling for $3, looking over the links to the items you use and their prices, you are making less then a $ a piece. But I am always looking for cute note pads and making them myself is a win win in my book. Love your videos. So well done and fantastic ideas. Thank you

[@jodeecross8105]

I just happened on your video and I love this idea! I love the dollar tree and anything that I can do with their stuff! Thank you! Thank You! I love these notepads! I love to craft for gifts!

[@lauramoore4064]

Love this craft. It is addicting. Made one for my mom for her Birthday and I just made me one. Now I am making a whole bunch for Christmas gifts. Love your ideas

[@altrace-l9x]

just rewatching your older videos !!! awesome !!!

[@tinavelliquette9336]

Love that you broke down the paper pad and gave us 2 projects.. that's what I call more Bang for your Buck!! and this is why we ALL love your videos! Now to wait patiently for the BONUS video.. Woo hoo!

[@suezihere]

I didn't see the 2nd project.. was it linked somewhere?

[@dgpowell]

Soon as I saw the video I ran out to Michael's to purchase the paper. Today was 40% off plus an addtl 20% off all items including sale items. Cant wait to do this project. Thanks so much!

[@dianemcdiarmid171]

Love this! THANKS for adding how much you sell your items for the Craft Fair...that helps a lot, because I am gearing up for my first time selling at a Craft Fair.

[@deborahramirez3445]

You are the best at giving instructions . I love the man-handle it direction (lol), thank you so much. You are so crafty and talented.

[@lyriclovercrafts]

Thanks so much, Deborah! xo Amber

[@lesleymaher8287]

So glad I found you too!.Loving your videos. Stay safe Amber and looking forward to all of your ideas - UK

[@carolah4687]

Love this idea. I don't do craft shows but I live in a senior building and love sharing with friends!

[@zelenaharper8341]

Thank you for the tutorial. I was trying it today and I realized I could save a step by removing the top two pads from the front, still attached to each other, and leaving the back alone. Apologies if someone already mentioned this.

[@pinecrone8991]

Another blessing in America. Great video.

[@tracymillerclark]

I started making these tonight for an upcoming fair. I'm completely addicted. You always give awesome tutorials. Thank you!

[@presley06able]

Just seeing this so awesome! I’m doing a vending event at a women’s conference and these would be perfect!

[@anitaqueenofdownton5338]

Hi Amber. I love watching your videos. You are a great teacher! Your voice is very soothing and you make your projects look so simple that anyone can do them. Such motivation and inspiration... Love love love your crafty ideas. Thank you so much for sharing them! Blessings ~ Anita

[@melissakraus9838]

Thank you for posting link to bags!! I have looked everywhere for bags like this to display my stuff ive made! I've already clicked on your like and bought some! Thank you again!

[@beckyburr1636]

Hi Amber, Love your chunky notebooks. I used two pads and added a loop for a pen.

[@bof.930]

Love the notebooks. They are exactly what I needed and I love that you mentioned what you will be charging...pricing is always difficult for me!

[@AbbyAvon]

This is a great and inexpensive way to use up your scraps AND make some great grab-bag, stocking stuffer gifts. Thanks for the share!

[@sunflowerfieldsdesigns]

Absolutely Love!! I just ran to Dollar Tree and picked up a few!!

[@susanjerrell9220]

Really sweet. You could just throw a pad in your purse or add some pretty papers and it just gives a minute of happy when you pull it out. Love it.

[@susanwinland5354]

I've been watching your videos for 3 years now, and you amaze me with all the great items you continue to present. So creative, Amber. Thanks for sharing.

[@lyriclovercrafts]

Thank you so much, Susan! You’re so sweet and kind and I appreciate you watching my videos so much. xo Amber :)

[@aliciaacosta9090]

AWESOME!!! Another pretty project with endless options as there are so many beautiful papers!! Thank you for the tip of using strong paper that will not crack as you crease. Look forward to bonus video!! TYFS ☺️💕🎀🌸👍🏼👏🏻👏🏻

[@rochelleprather3220]

What a amazing and creative project! A great tutorial! I hope u have more in 2019! God has truly blessed your hands!

[@62Hawkins]

Omg, I think I just found my new hobby. Watching you work with the paper is enticing.

[@mystique1224]

Very pretty and elegant...Great job Amber..

[@vetadunning16]

These are so cute. I'm not a crafter but I believe I could make these. You made it look so simple

[@louisedesantis3039]

I made a couple notepads and a couple notebooks from composition books. Loved the paper I used (Echo Park Fall Market), and they were cute, cute, very appealing. But it's not that easy to get the paper on the notepad/book straight!!! And that's an understatement. I hand it to you, Amber; you've got a singular touch to produce so many that are nice and straight!

[@jodeecross8105]

I love this idea but we no longer can find these pads like this now at least in our state of Iowa! I am not going to give up finding them but! Thank you for your creativity! It is amazing! And your explanations are amazing!

[@pamburke8614]

Darling! I have been picking up Project Life cards at Tuesday Morning at reduced prices. Perfect for these! Love ! Thanks for the clear bag info!

[@FoundandRedesigned]

I can understand not remembering....when you make so many of one thing I think that's normal. Great idea! Thanks for sharing! I loved the traveler's notebook tutorial you did. I made a bunch! (for gifts) Can't wait to try these!

[@softyfyi]

you're so creative and I am so inspired. Thank you for sharing your gift with us

[@booberry329]

Just found this video. Thank you for sharing your ideas, and especially prices you use at your craft shows. I always wonder. I had thought $5 at first, but, I like your $3 price better.

[@VBoddicker]

I'm going to make some of these for Christmas to give to friends and family. I love this idea!

[@mariaramirez2203]

Super cute, great gift or stocking stuffer. Big Tx hugs from South Tx.

[@Morena1268]

What an awesome project! Great tutorial too, thanks for sharing. I have so much gorgeous scrapbook paper that this would be perfect for.

[@TheCraftyOrganizer]

What a great teacher or client gift! Thanks!!

[@loriotto8433]

Love these pads myself.....I've used them and make several different crafts with them. Can't wait to see what you do with the leftovers.....I know mine never go to waste!!

[@debk1915]

These are so cute!!! I wish I would have found you sooner - have lots to catch up on!! I made this and am so pleased with how they came out! Thanks for sharing! I’m excited to learn and try more of your creations!

[@lisamalachinski5509]

[@carolpage4170]

[@cindyl5002]

[@myhoneyscrafts127]

You must have the steadiest hands in the world. I tried this project and can not for the life of me lay the paper down straight. It is always a little off, but I bought a lot of pads and I have to do them. Love the idea though and great stocking stuffers. I will see if anybody will buy my pads lol!!!

[@tashirose1244]

Hi Amber, these are soooo cute! Another great paper project - thanks for the awesome video : )

[@juliesantos3656]

Hi Amber! I love your idea for the paper pads! Tfs!!

[@creativekat109]

so beautiful ,great job.happy selling

[@TheScrapologist]

Hi, Amber! I am doing my first craft fair and came across your channel. I wanted to thank you for your generosity in sharing your ideas and also your resources for your supplies. I made a video based off this idea of yours and gave you credit on my channel. I won't post the link because it might look spammy. Thank you!

[@tracyhoffman7227]

Hi Amber, tyfs these gorgeous notepads! I love the blue one with the boy on it. I'm thinking of my son. He is so Special to me. He writes down his prayers Inside a little notepad. I love the Bird one I'm thinking of my Mom. Akso, last but not least my Daughter who is very Special to me. I love the one you did as the tutorial for this video for her. I love the cards on the front. It really makes them pop! I don't own a paper cutter or an adhesive tool. I don't know the correct name for rhem. I need those items and the bone tool. So the mat and of course the beautiful book of paper. Then the gather cards? I don't know if that's correct either. I love these. What an amazing idea. I watched the wreath tutorial on the chalkboards and they are just lovely!! The ribbon makes them pop. I was thinking you could take them and make the ribbon longer and put them over several of tour cabinet doors for Christmas. Or over a large mirror.

[@yvonnerodrigue140]

Great idea! I really enjoy your videos.. Easy to follow, & of course your Awesome Ideas!! 😀

[@creen2416]

🤩😍 oOh my goodness you are amazing!! Thank you !! You just gave me ideas , I have been in Canva making covers for notebooks and notepads but I just didn't know where I could go with it . This is so cool , it fits right with what I had in mind . 🥰♥️🤘🏽

[@lyriclovercrafts]

You’re so kind! Thank you so much! xo

[@dawnprince2847]

love these videos thank you for all the info and sharing them

[@kristielindsey7456]

They are so cute! I guessed the price!! lol I'd buy these.

[@patriciadowd2948]

Love these notepads. I am going to have to purchase that paper pad. I already went to Tuesday Morning and bought the candy box punch board. Lol Ever time I watch your video it cost me money. LOl What a great thing to spend it on though is craft materials.

[@susantobin719]

Patricia Dowd same for me. I was lucky and found the candy box punch board.

[@jennifermurphy8014]

Same here! I went and found the candy box punch too 🙂

[@carlottaholman9481]

Such a great idea; either for craft fairs or for small gifts. TFS

[@prettypaperthings]

One of my favorite paper pads! It's such a gorgeous collection, makes any project look beautiful :) can't wait til your bonus video 💕

[@MsDeejr]

Great video and thank you for sharing this idea! I have been looking for something to start some kind of crafting ideas for myself. This is so cute for me to personalize for my friends and family!

[@MariaNyceDesigns]

Love this! I used to decorate booklets & I sold them in a small boutique…miss those days! I think these are so pretty!!! I hope your voice gets better & your throat doesn’t hurt, tea w/lemon & honey works wonders if you like that. Take care & thanks so much for sharing your time and creativity, hugs!!!

[@cynthiacalvert5626]

[@CarolinasCreationsHandmade]

So love this idea! I have the chunky pads, but I used to separate them. Super cute! I'm definitely trying this! Thank you for sharing, Amber! Big hug

[@jessbea9993]

I made some of these (and the bonus pads) and sold them at my craft fair last weekend. They were very well received! I sold the chunky ones for $3 ea and the bonus ones for $2 ea and I sold about 2/3rds of what I made. Thanks for the idea Amber!

[@lyriclovercrafts]

That so amazing!!! Yay! xo Amber

[@iamaksd]

This was soooo cute and creative!!!

[@NettieBlossomWithPaper]

Love this Amber!

[@susanjacquier5358]

I love these notepad projects ❤....sadly, we here in Australia don't have many of the amazing stores available to us, with inexpensive products. .. ( I was only talking with a fellow crafter in one of our few stores yesterday and we both were lamenting on the cost of our basic products (probably double ) and often , very limited choice. ). Having said that, we still Love crafting and learning new techniques, clever ways to make the best of what is available and just have fun 😊

[@lindagiles1911]

Susan Jacquier Fellow Australian here. I agree.

[@nancyaugustine9879]

It may seem that way, but keep in mind the wage discrepancies between Australia and the USA, minimum wage is only $8.05 here compared to what? $18 in Australia. So things may not be as cheap as they first seem.

[@susanjacquier5358]

Nancy Augustine ..Hi :0....yes I agree with that for the most part. I am unfortunately a pensioner, and as lucky as we are for the most part ( healthcare etc ), I still drool at the array of craft goodies available ..... often we have to import basics like coloured elastic cord and charms, so I guess it's good and bad for us both. It makes me a better recycler though :) Quite frankly , I don't know how the heck you survive on that basic wage :(.

[@GOTTshua]

I wish you could come to the U.S.A. with an empty suitcase and fill it with art supplies from Dollar Stores, Hobby Lobby, Michael's, and JoAnn's. Joyous crafting to you. I have made neat things out of scraps, old boxes of matches and whatever I can find in a "junk drawer" around the house.

[@OfftheShelf-n9x]

You had a use your stash idea that made little 3”x4”. They were so perfect for the tiny instant pictures my son takes with his instatax camera. I can’t find it again, and I want to make it. Also, any ideas for a make do scoreboard? I love your ideas.

[@amybush6415]

Perfect for Christmas gifts!!

[@yasmeenw7227]

You are so creative!

[@catinabounds8397]

Love it!!! Super cute. But what were the embellishments u used l didnt catch that???

[@MsShanarun]

Thank you for generously sharing your ideas!

[@penny12310]

These are great where did you get the little cards to glue on note pads and also the clear babgs

[@hoytsie]

as always Amber, very nice!
