harvesting some (mostly) new Spring magazines for glue book images!

I'm enjoying the video and watching the harvest

Hi Amy…. It’s so much fun watching you pick out images from the magazine and what you me might do with them. Loved the moos info… blessings and love to you.

[@dokidokiforest]

Good morning Liane, wonderful to see you! ✨🧚‍♀️💕 Oh weren't those moss pages just stunning? Even if I hadn't found any other images in these magazines I would have been thrilled to just have those. Thank you so much for stopping by and hanging out with me today. Wishing you a delightful day and hope to see you again soon! Sending lots of love and hugs your way from me and all the beasties over here in the forest! 🌈✨🦄🌳❤🐸🍄🐉

I love harvest videos, I don't mind long ones and I thought oh no you couldn't miss that lovely lavender field so glad you went back for it... Lots of lovely pretty images for spring. I was sorting some of my new mag additions to work out which ones to harvest next... So they will be coming soon. I've been in a bit of a rut on what video to make but I think this helped thx my lovely for the great harvest... ❤️❤️😁😁👍🏻

[@dokidokiforest]

Good morning Elaine, so wonderful to see you! ✨❤🧚‍♀️ Oh I'm so happy you don't mind these long harvest videos! Isn't it so funny how we can just as much enjoy watching someone harvest a magazine as doing it ourselves? I always love to see what people find, which images/words they choose and which they leave behind. Can't WAIT to see your upcoming harvest videos - you can be sure I'll be there! (when you're ready of course, no pressure!) Thank you so much for popping by and hanging out with me, always fun to chat with you! Sending you lots of love and hugs from me and all the beasties over here in the forest! ✨🍄🦄🌈❤🌳🐉

@@dokidokiforest I think people moan about long videos because they try and watch them all in one go, which you can of course, but I sometimes watch part of it go do something and come back to it... There is no need not to watch long videos, I watch them while I'm crafting too which seems like we are crafting together... I just love that people do that with my videos too. ❤️❤️ Have a fabulous day in the forest with your beasties love and hugs 🌳🌿🌼😁❤️

[@dokidokiforest]

Yes I totally agree about the long videos - you can watch them all at once or break them up and watch a bit now and a bit later. Crafting together while watching is great fun as well! That's what I did when I was watching your video about making a glue book out of a magazine! I went and got a magazine and created one right along with you! Great fun! Hope you are up to something fun this weekend! Sending lots of love and hugs to you from me and all the beasties! ❤🌳🦄🐸✨🐶🍄

Tape the two together

[@dokidokiforest]

Good morning Janice! ✨❤🧚‍♀️ Hmmm which two are you referring to?

[@janicehoughtelling5137]

@@dokidokiforest any pages that are separate from the other one I tape them on the back side

[@Helen_kittycat_crafts]

well havent you had fun with these! how much fun and so many great ideas xx

[@dokidokiforest]

Good morning Helen, great to see you! ✨❤🧚‍♀️ Oh yes seeing all of these images certainly does get the imagination going doesn't it? Makes me want to create about 10 more gluebooks/journals lol! 🤣 Hope you are enjoying a wonderfully creative day over there my friend! Sending you lots of love and hugs from me and all the beasties over here in the forest! ❤🌳✨🍄🌈🦄🐉💕

I love spring magazines, I've been making gardens and nature landscapes in my gluebook these days

[@dokidokiforest]

Good morning! ✨❤🧚‍♀️ Oh that sounds like a lovely gluebook you're creating in! Spring magazines certainly are gorgeous - so many colors and especially all that green! 😍💚 Wishing you an awesome creative day today and hope to see you again soon! 🍄✨🦄🌈❤🌳

[@kristinasshack]

Hi Amy 🤗 So nice to glue away with you. You found lots of great images❣️ Special mention to the bath pic with the doggie & the moss pics 💚 I’m with you wanting to make all different books 📚 I think organising your books in categories is best too ~ but rainbow 🌈 category shelves would be good 😉 I am def not into all the smart house stuff. No thank you. Am def grateful for the internet & automatic washing machines & inside toilets but that’ll do 🤣🤣 Thanks for the long video & crafty hangout 😍 Love to you & Doki Doki Forest 🌈🌻💚

[@dokidokiforest]

Good morning Kristina, awesome to see you! ✨❤🧚‍♀️ I'm so happy to hear you were gluing along as you were watching! Bet you are up to some amazing stuff over there! 😍 Oh my gosh weren't those moss pics gorgeous? I could look at a whole book of luscious green moss. Totally agree with you about the smart house stuff - it's just getting to be way too much! As my Mom said, "I just want my appliances to be dumb" HAHA! 🤣 Thank you so much for hanging out with me for this looong video, always love your company! Sending you and all at The Shack lots and lots of love from me and all the beasties over here in the forest! ❤🌳🦄🍄✨🌈🐉

[@TheHalfassCrafter]

Haha! I have that BHG too! we chose a lot of the same images! I love seeing what other folks find in the same mags. TFS! 💜

[@dokidokiforest]

Good morning! ✨❤🧚‍♀️ Haha that's awesome that you had the same BHG magazine, and that we chose lots of the same stuff! SO many gorgeous images inside, and that cover!!! Wow! 😍 I just loved the rainbow of colors all throughout. Isn't it so fun to both harvest and also see what other people find in their magazines? So satisfying either way! Thank you so much for hanging out with me today. Wishing you a wonderful day and hope to see you again soon! 💕🐉🦄🌈✨🌳🍄

[@JeanneBaney]

You had some great magazines! Nothing like a good harvest. And yes, you have a lot of fun fun work sorting out all those images!

[@dokidokiforest]

Good morning Jeanne, awesome to see you! ✨❤🧚‍♀️ Oh it's always a wonderful day when one can sit down and flip through a magazines, searching for those images that just pop out at you right? In fact, as I was editing this video I saw more stuff I need to go back and get - lots of color book goodies that I totally skipped past! That's why it can be good to harvest a magazine once, twice, perhaps even up to four times right?!?! #harvestedmagswap LOL! 🤣 Thank you so much for spending time over here, always look forward to chatting with you! Have an awesome day and see you again soon! Sending lots of love and hugs to you from me and all the beasties over here in the forest! 🐉🌈✨🦄🍄🌳❤

[@JeanneBaney]

@@dokidokiforest it’s amazing what we miss that first time around and even the second time! You are all set for spring with those wonderful images!!

Sometimes it even takes 3 or 4 times to find everything lol! 😂

This is fun...so many ideas more and more and more ideas. Love the potato candies (is that one of the new recipes you tried???) I've been really diggin' "turmeric lattes" lately. I don't even do coffee anymore. How crazy is that? Lemon curd, sounds weird but is SO good, especially in blueberry baked goods. I love how the color-organized books look on the shelf, but realistically, I just don't see it working. But it sure is pretty. I always thought that was for "non readers", until my hyper-crazy-voracious- reader niece did all her books by color. lol. I'll have to ask her how that's going. See if she kept it that way. You found loads of goodies to play with. Harvest hugs and let's-glue love to you and Sophia from Bitzer-kabitzer & me ✂💚💛💖

[@dokidokiforest]

Gooooood morning Ker, awesome to see you! 🖤💜💚 Haha, no I didn't try making those potato candies but I should! Have you ever heard of them before? That was a first for me! 🍀🥔🍬 Wow - tumeric lattes?!??! I need that recipe! For some reason, regular iced coffee (even flavored) has been tasting horrible to me lately. No clue why but it's time for a switch I guess! Don't think I've had lemon curd before but I have to say that I absolutely love lemon flavor in baked goods. Trader Joe's (go figure!) has these blueberry muffins and they have a hint of lemon in them - soooooo good! They are my fav blueberry muffins for sure! Definitely let me know your niece's thoughts on the rainbow book shelves - did they last? Thank you so much as always for hanging out with me while I harvesting, always love your company! Hoping you and sweet lil Bitsy are keeping cozy, enjoying your latte and up to some creative fun today! Sending you both lots and lots of love and hugs from Sophia and I! 💚🦄✨🍄🐶🌈🍀💕☕

i just got a magazine i find truly boring (reno companies etc) in the mail and i turned it into a real janet nash style magazine art journal glue book!!😊 im working in it rn as I'm watching your video. always torn between harvesting vs turning into journal and simply incorporate the images into my collages (saving cutting etc!)!! some truly STUNNING pictures in these mags wow!! the moss in a frame 😭💘💘 incredible!! and you're vegetarian right? me too 😊 im not a huge fan of smart homes, i also dont want any more notifications!!!! my fridge doesnt need wifi ok😅 give me built-in features! i am glueing in my colours glue book, on a green page rn. i love long videos the most 💞 sending much love!!!

[@dokidokiforest]

Good morning nads, wonderful to see you! ✨❤🧚‍♀️ Niiiiiiiiice job transforming a boring magazine into Janet Nash style glue book! Such a great way to repurpose a magazine and transform it into something beautiful! You are like the Fairy Godmother in Cinderella turning a pumpkin into a beautiful coach! Wasn't that moss stunning??? How awesome would it be to have walls decorated like that? I do eat chicken and fish but it is actually quite rare as my husband and one of my sons is vegetarian, so I always opt for the vegetarian version of recipes when possible. LOL I know right? Who wants texts all day from their refrigerators, washers, dryers - in the wise words of my Mom - "I want my appliances to be dumb!" hahaha! 🤣 So thrilled to hear you are gluing along as you hang out with me, that's awesome! AND a green color page as well? FANtastic!!! 🍀💚🐉🌳 Wishing you a fun, creative day of gluing and playing in your wonderful journals my friend! Sending lots of love and hugs to you from me and all the beasties in the forest! ✨🌈🌳❤🐉✨🦄

[@nads420]

@@dokidokiforest Cinderella lmao 😂 i just love making journals!! I'm creating them more than I'm filling them out, but that's okay with me. I'm going to assume it's just a phase hahahaha. yeah I immediately was thinking about how to recreate that moss frame, but without the upkeep of living moss. I love the texture of moss so much, I'm always looking and touching the different kinds of moss growing around me lollll 😄 kind of like my partner then, since I am vegetarian he generally eats whatever I make, but we do have chicken usually in the freezer! lots of love my friend, may your creativity know no bounds 🧚✨

[@dokidokiforest]

That's awesome that you are just throwing yourself into the fun creative vortex of making journals - no need to wonder what they will be used for later, just enjoying the process! ✨🌈

[@lionunderthestars7019]

Hi, Amy I harvested the Better Homes and Gardens last week. I kept wondering if I pulled certain things or not. Oh, well. I am not a foodie myself. So when you passed up all those pretty blue flowers and then went on to pull food pages, it made me wonder. Were you hungry? It was fun to see your choices and hear the explanations. Will you be doing anything with these images soon, or filing them? Thanks for the video. Nancy

[@dokidokiforest]

Good morning Nancy, great to see you! ✨❤🧚‍♀️ LOL - It's very possible I may have been hungry when I harvested those magazines! 🤣 Now I'll have to go and see about those blue flowers! Funny how many things I miss the first time around. Even when I'm editing I'm like, "You didn't get that image?! Amy what were you thinking?!" 🤣 Currently I'm collecting recipes for a separate cookbook journal I'd like to make at some point (haha). I also like the food images that look particularly retro and remind me of the family recipe book we had when I was growing up so I usually grab those too. (will use them in my future 70s journal) The other images I gathered will be mostly filed for now but there are some that could go in my color glue book. Planning on making an alphabet glue book as well as an en masse style so that way I can really start using up these images I collect! Lots of things planned for the future for sure! Thank you so much for hanging out with me today while I was harvesting. Wishing you an awesome day and hope to see you again soon! ❤🌳🦄🍄✨🌈🐉
