This is a great video on how to make a journal within an hour! It takes me so long, so I appreciate this video! 😊 I really like how you used gold paint on the edge of the book and the material for the inner spine! ❤ Thank you for sharing and have a wonderful crafting day! 😊 Gina

🌺Aloha from the Big Island of Hawaii. I love that you chose Mahalo for the name of your business! Mahalo is how we say thank you, and also to express our appreciation. It was fun to stumble upon your lovely video, so helpful and inspiring. Aloha and Mahalo

[@houseofmahalo]

Hawaii has a special place in my heart for so many reasons, so I knew I wanted to use a Hawaiian word from the very beginning 😊💖 I'm so pleased to hear you like that I chose Mahalo and the project I made 😊💖 xoxo

[@teenathomas8562]

I love this! I have a small green book I just gutted the other day. Now I’m inspired!! I also loved how you put in the pages. That’s exactly how I’ll do mine! Thank you for sharing your technique ❤❤❤

[@houseofmahalo]

Aww, thank you so much 🥰💖 How's that for timing?! I hope you enjoy making yours 😁✨ And I'm glad you found the binding part helpful too. I like to keep it easy lol 😅 xoxo

[@sherrydennis2419]

Such a cute journal!

[@houseofmahalo]

Thank you so much; it was fun to make 🤩🥰

[@YvonneCook-gv5pq]

I love the gold edging, it adds little something special to the journal 😊❤

[@houseofmahalo]

Thank you so much! I thought the same 😀💖

[@DeniseS-6867]

Cute fairy journal💙

[@houseofmahalo]

Thank you so much lovely xoxo

[@debbiebreen6276]

This is so adorable and inspiring for me; I'm gathering bits and pieces for my fairy journal. Thankyou for the tutorial. x

[@houseofmahalo]

Aww yay, I'm so pleased to hear that Debbie. Fairy journals are such fun to make, eh? 😀💖

[@ssbalmera7464]

This is quite lovely, I appreciate simplicity when done to perfection like this. Thanks for sharing.

[@houseofmahalo]

Aww, such a lovely compliment - thank you so much 🥰💖

[@JeanneJordanexteach]

Love this! I actually bought a few small old books recently and was wondering if I wanted to try a journal like this. I haven't ever used an old book cover for a journal, so I guess I should try it. Thanks, Justine😄❤

[@houseofmahalo]

Ooh! In that case, starting small like this would be a good way to try it out. The process is pretty much the same for small, large, etc 😀💖

[@CynthiaGricken]

Very cute! It would make a thoughtful gift. 🎁

[@houseofmahalo]

Thank you so much 🥰💖 And it sure would! 🤩🤩

[@aned246]

Very cute mini journal! Beautiful cluster pocket decorating the cover.

[@houseofmahalo]

Thank you so much!! I had a lot of fun making those clusters 😀💖

[@MariKayCreations]

That is a cute wee journal. It's nice, lately, seeing a few alternatives to our really embellished 'normal' journals. Proving what you said in one of your Sunday podcasts - there are no rules!

[@houseofmahalo]

Thank you so much! I want to do a few more projects like this where you can easily make them in an afternoon or weekend. I think a balance of big and small projects really helps to spark creativity 🥰💖

[@Veronim78]

[@Canadian693]

TFS! Very cute project. Looks like there was enough room to put either 1 or 2 more signatures, just a thought. Thanks again!

[@houseofmahalo]

Thank you so much! I think I could've gotten away with 1 more signature... I was just feeling lazy lol 😅

I love your name House of Mahalo it means thank you in the Hawaiian Language, ❤❤❤ It caught my attention new sub here😊

[@houseofmahalo]

Thank you so much for joining me - Hawaii is my favourite place 😉💖

[@bethbeach4941]

Where do you find those tiny tips for the glue , I need that . This is awesome.

[@houseofmahalo]

I got mine from Craftelier but Amazon also has something similar: amzn.to/4cZ1dkt (my affiliate link, so I may earn a commission if you buy something) 😊 I decant my normal-sized bottle of glue into them, which does require a steady hand but I find it so much easier than holding the big bottles 😀 xoxo

[@davedunwoody8054]

Will there be a part 2 to see the pages decorated?

[@houseofmahalo]

I won't be decorating the pages in this one 😊 This one is primarily for writing or for the new owner to decorate the pages 😊💖 xoxo

[@kathynichols910]

how much room do you use for multi signatures. I either get them too close. Thanks

[@houseofmahalo]

Good question - I think I usually leave about half an inch between each signature (especially if I'm decorating the pages or adding lots of handmade ephemera). I hope that helps! 😊💖

[@csk5654]

Lovely! What are the dimensions of your book? TYFS Cindy

[@houseofmahalo]

Hey Cindy, I've just measured it - it's 3.75 x 5.5 inches and I think the spine was just shy of 0.5 inches. Such a cute size, but I've also upcycled a cough drop box before, so any size will do really: kzbin.info/aero/PLs4rD-zYjLqQKXg_8e8NBq6KzOKmZbf1j 😊💖 xoxo
