I love that you always give options on how to make our own supplies instead of having to go out and buy special name brands that cost a lot more. I actually tried this recently with spackling paste. It worked but I used way too much of it. Thanks for the tips!

[@Leena-jt8cm]

Yes, that’s why I love watching her video she always have alternative if u don’t have things with you.

[@DeenaSowell]

"Experimentation leads to revelation"... precisely! Especially in this field of crafting. You, Natasha, have the profound ability to excite one to run to their craft room and start experimenting... and crafting!! ❤

[@destinyidentitywithdrannac6114]

amen amen amen!!!

[@julesiou12]

You've just changed the game on textured paint. I'm so glad you'e shared how to changed the colour. I'd never have thought of that so now you've opened up so many more possibilities. Thank you Natasha x

[@andreaandi4815]

You can also separate the amount of paste you’re going to use onto some plastic (I use packaging or ziplock bag) then mix in whatever color I want for a uniform look

[@bettymetz3746]

PLEASE do not take this as a crazy person’s post…but, if I were a man I would be in love with you! You are THE most amazing instructor on KZbin. You inspire, entertain, encourage (yes that’s different than inspire), and instruct at 100 % perfection level. Now after all that I say a humble thank you and God bless your willingness to spend so much time, energy and honesty on all us subbies. Blessings from Betty in Ohio.

[@AiSayuriChan]

Natasa, do you have any idea about how many journals you've made so far? It seems like you might have a whole shelf only for finished projects. That'd be so cool! Thanks for sharing new ideas with us!

[@plan4life]

I love how you always come up with something new and are not afraid to experiment. These days too many KZbin crafters are just doing what everyone else is doing with little imagination or thought being put in the process. I am always learning something fresh and exciting with your videos. Love it!

[@janilledutton139]

Your creativity is SO inspiring! You are an amazing teacher! I love how you share your mental process & self reflections! It's helpful & relatable. I've always wanted to learn how to make texture/ modeling paste. Isn't it amazing that the ingredients are often in our houses already!? Thanks for being a ray of sunshine today🤗🌞

[@annaaragon6763]

Hello everyone my name is Anna, I'm from New Mexico. I am also a newbie watching your tutorials for 4 days in a row now. I ❤❤❤ love everything you have done in your tutorials you are an amazing lady ❤❤ # replay. These fails as you mentioned, to me are personality, added to your beautiful crafts❤❤❤ !!! YOU ARE BRILLIANT NATASHA ❤❤ !!!!

[@deborahmoen3952]

Such BEAUTY ! What a pleasure to spend these moments with you and your lovely explosions of craftiness, cleverness, and kindness. Gosh, Natasha you are a balm for my soul. I love the expanse of infinite possibilities you share. The colors sounds and textures divine. Thank you.

[@lzrd8460]

I’ve never been attracted to making journals. I just don’t get why anyone would spend so much time on making one…then what? You all seem to enjoy making them then they sit around, stacked up in a pile. I’m here to learn how to make the texture pastes and how to apply them. That said, I applaud you for putting so much time into creating them. I enjoy watching ‘Treasure Books’ vides as she has suck a pleasant voice, because she gets right down to teaching us, because she is filled with tips and finally, because she has no annoying music playing that often makes it hard for me to hear what is being said. I also find music distracting. Thank you for sharing your knowledge & experience with all of us. 👏👏👏👏👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@pagetvido1850]

"We have it because we think it's going to make us look beautiful, but then it doesn't" 🤣 Perfect summary of the beauty industry

[@TreasureBooks]

Hehe exactly!

[@gaylemunn1011]

I love this Natasha. Thank you. I love the way you always explain clearly and encourage experimentation as well as giving alternatives to the processes you use. You inspire creativity. 🙏🏽🦋🥰

[@sallygreiner5724]

This tutorial was an eye opener for me. I am just getting into mixed media but was almost paralyzed by the different kinds of mediums. I learned so much from watching you about using stuff I have on hand, experimenting and having fun. I would have never thought to just use paint to color the white texture paint over the stencil. Thank you, thank you!

[@wendychandler2244]

Ohhh can’t wait to try some of these fantastic ideas!!! You make everything so simple and achievable from making the supplies with safe home products to lots of great ideas on how to use them in my treasured journals! Thanks so much for sharing!

[@annieg5100]

Beautiful projects I love all of them but I have to say the journals with lace pockets or strips on the top and bottom are my favorite and absolutely gorgeous! The alcohol ink backgrounds is my second. I’m so glad you found a way to make the paste I was around when you made your cheese cloth journal and I loved that one as well, so thank you for always sharing your inspiration it has become my passion thank you!❤

[@marilynmccormick3731]

Excellent tutorial with so much helpful content-----more than enough to watch again & again to remember it all. Thank you so much for all the details. You are my favorite artist because you are detail orientated and because you show us so many ways to use the creations. Also you share the precautions. You're wonderful.

[@livingmybestestlife]

You are so freaking amazing. Your creativity knows no bounds. And you're so funny and personable. I'm so glad I found your channel.

[@TreasureBooks]

Thank you so much!!

[@sintheticsmile]

I appreciate how resourceful you are and that you really encourage experimenting. I love upcycling and reusing what might otherwise be tossed; your videos always give me good ideas!

[@TreasureBooks]

Thank you so much!

[@anonbutanon]

No. You did it again? You read my mind! Because last night I was thinking, 'Oh dear. I need to find a video on texture paste. Was it baking soda and...? I can't recall.' And then you're like *boom* - "Here ya go."

[@TreasureBooks]

Yaaaaaay!!!!

[@cals4181]

I Love your projects! But it is YOU! Your art - your choices. I watch several artists. Some of their choices are not me, but I watch them for the knowledge I get from the artist. I continue to watch their tutorials because I learn so much. You are so funny, but really - equal treatment for all species. You keep showcasing your art!!!!

[@janicem4382]

You are defiantly the treasure in treasure books. Thank you for all the great ideas and suggestions. Your work is beautiful!

[@elainebates6967]

I love your adventure of trying anything to see what happens. I love your works of beautiful art and crafts. Lots of Love Light and Laughter!

[@bknight7698]

Never tried too much stenciling but the way you explain and create with it, it makes me want to make it up and use the stencils I have just waiting in a drawer! Thanks!👍❤️

[@sherryliberto6749]

Natasha, thank you for all of the great ideas. I am beating my head against the wall for not thinking of just painting over the white texture paste. Thanks again. Have a super fantastic weekend. Sending big hugs Sherry ❤

[@annelawver2703]

Thank you! Another great way to extend our art budget. Also, your willingness to showing your test pieces is very educational

[@colleenmckeeman1342]

A very thorough investigation of texturepaste. Thank you.

[@emmkaa2099]

Natasha, hi sweetie 🥰. I love everything you've done here, and I think the imperfections make things look hand made, which I really like. I didn't know how to color texture paste - I would've put paint into the actual paste but your way is much easier (I also really like the imperfections in the color) - so thank you for that! Lovely to see you and I hope your weekend is marvelous! Hugs, MK 🤗♥️🌵❤️🤗

[@Kayenne54]

I liked the "imperfections" in the colour, too. Gave sort of an "ombre" effect...

[@emmkaa2099]

@@Kayenne54 Yes, exactly!

[@Kayenne54]

@@emmkaa2099 I actually liked all the "fails" too. Or the experimental results. But, in the creator's eyes, it's about something that matches their original vision of it all. If it doesn't feel satisfactory, or pleasing, then to them it isn't. However, I think everything Natasha does is lovely, interesting or inspirational, so that's my perception bias lol.

[@TreasureBooks]

Aw thank you so very much EmmKaa! I hope you give it a go :) Hugs to you too xoxo

[@mickeymulder9741]

And as usual FABULOUS!!

[@sherrydennis2419]

How beautiful!

[@sambeawesome]

So much inspiration in one video, I loved this, thank you so much!

[@reneasmith1588]

I haven't tried it in years but you can stamp into texture paste with rubber stamps, too.

[@TreasureBooks]

I was planning to do that too in the video! I completely forgot about it!

[@hjkh1998]

Once again you hit it out of the ball park! So many great ideas and options! Thank you for all the tips and tricks. Your books are absolutely stunning! It's fun getting a little peak behind the scenes. Thank you Natasha!

[@californiadreamer5968]

I actually love the abstract one with the scratches that you had in your “fail” section.

[@wendywilson1736]

Wow!! All the effects!! Just amazing!! There are no failures! Trials, yes. And really interesting results!! Thanks for mentioning the mask or subbing Cornstarch for the talc. After all the scary stuff found about talc in the 70s, I never even brought that stuff into the house. Always used cornstarch for our babies, or myself. Cornstarch is definitely the way to go. I wondered also about powdered clay, then you mentioned it! This all looks like fun!

[@cookiemum1]

I really love the highlights of the white 😊with the red that was just perfect to me!

[@TreasureBooks]

Thanks so much 😊

[@TheLollygirl69]

Love how detailed you've covered this, thank you ❤

[@brandiperelli4090]

How fun would this be on a big master board? Thank you Natasa for an explosion of possibilities!😊

[@havendallaire5988]

Oh Natasha I just love how in detail your videos are. Love love this tutorial thank you❤

I’m always motivated to craft after watching your tutorials. Thank you for all your hard work and for sharing!

[@marenjeworowski9859]

You are so good. You explain and show every step. I think you are the best teacher on YT for newbies like me. I feel so inspired. Every video I watch, I want to get right on it, trying for myself! Your creativity is amazing. ❤

[@Aymaray2]

Love all of your inspiration and ideass you share. Thank you, Natasha.

[@joanhessenauer]

Love this! Never thought of adding color like that. You have inspired me to make some! Thank you for sharing!

So fun! Do you ever put those smaller journal books in your Etsy shop? I would love to have a small sample of your work. You’re so creative!

[@janicem4382]

Your creativity and style is wonderful, literally I am full of wonder. Your incredible creativity and willingness to share fills me with respect and gratitude.

[@robingoff677]

Thank you for sharing all of this with us. I always say the imperfections are adding personality to the piece.

[@alysonhovanec6314]

Thank you for all the wonderful creative ideas! Wonderful!!

[@robertavalente4171]

❤ Grazie !

[@mia707]

Thank you! I am so inspired. I also realize I need to just creat and have items prepared ahead of time without a distinct or defendant plan for what project I am going to use it for. At times my projects take SO LONG because I’m creating all the components specific for that project. My rainy days (when I can’t be in the garden or out with the horses) will now have days of creating for future projects. I’d like to go right to the studio to get started but I do require sleep so it will wait a few days. Thanks again.

[@maryfeldmann7705]

Love your recipe. I love to use it in chunky painting and cards. Thank you for sharing. Great instructions as well.

[@caridavila2071]

Thank you thank you! This is a great idea and now I know how to make my own paste and my own colors! ❤

[@debrak5314]

Another terrific tutorial!! I like that you do the trial and error, so you can tell us what works and what doesn’t!! Love the projects also!

[@Sheamarie]

Thank you so much for sharing all the info on the texture paste. I will probably try to make my own.

[@staceywilson5232]

I love all these ideas. You are brilliant. I want it allllll.

[@CiriLilia]

Made a batch with corn starch but it did not turn out well. It was just a dry clump, so I had to basically add double the amount of paint and glue to make it look okay. But I also had baking soda so I tried a batch with that and it turned out SO MUCH better and with the ingredient amounts you mentioned. Of course I had to also try them out. The corn starch one didn't function very well despite how I tried to fix the consistency. It was harder to spread and the result was messy, even with a small and simple stencil. But the baking soda one was nice! It spread nice and even with no bleed and I even used a slightly more complex stencil and it looks lovely. So I might give up on the starch one, or maybe keep it for bigger textured surfaces (like the journal you showed, with the leathery look) and use the better baking soda paste for more detailed work with stencils. I'll have to see how they look completely dry, they're currently still a bit moist because of course I had to do all this while watching the video. In any case thank you for this, I now know what to do with all that baking powder (and maybe starch) just sitting in my cupboard since I rarely bake stuff that requires it.

[@MercyCuenca]

how did it turn out?

[@debbieekes5718]

Wonderfully helpful and generous tutorial. Thank you!

[@terichiarelli6210]

You are so talented. Please keep these types of projects coming. I love watching your videos. You think out of the box and give excellent directions.

[@lisagreen3778]

What a great tutorial…always love your thoughts and ideas…Thank you!

[@jenhammersley8768]

What an amazingly informative video.I have been painstakingly hand painting my stencils for ages had no idea they could be painted over like you demonstrated. All your work is so beautiful and I love that you share alternatives for different products/.Thank you for your time and the details that you explain during your tutorials,not assuming everyone is familiar with different techniques or products.In my opinion you are the Queen of Junk Journals,which also my opinion is a misnomer..they are definitely not junk!

This opened my eyes to so much experimentation!! Those envelopes are beautiful, a fabulous idea for card making.

[@4chicagogrl]

Natasa!!!! I LOOOOOVVVVEEE IT ALL!!! ❤ I am so happy you decided to change your “fails” into experiments, because without experimenting we cannot expect to achieve instant masterpieces. I have had to learn this and be patient with myself. No art is a fail! All of it is a Process, and the very process is beautiful ❤. Thank you again for another drool worthy tutorial with such incredible results! And with simple items I actually have. I can’t wait to give it a go!

[@missyb.623]

Excellent video, as always! Thanks.

[@leisacarnahan7647]

Thank you for sharing this. I have never used texture paste. This was a great video. I also loved that you showed how to make your own. I have really have been into making my own products to save on money as well as recycling more. I love your gold nail polish.

[@artzyyma]

I adore this. All of this. I never though to spread the paint over before removing... genius! And you mentioned using Sharpies on the paste... that makes me want to play with a few detailed stencils, and then color with my markers! Textured coloring pages..... so many ideas. Thank you, thank you.

[@conniec4629]

Great, great, great!!
