A lovely video Janet so pleased you enjoyed your walk with lovely Freddie such a beautiful dog. Thanks very much for sharing 😀 with us. Also thanks for happy mail will email you tomorrow. Your book was fantastic. I have done a couple of those myself but got the idea from you. I found doing a magazine size glue book very satisfying all my others are smaller which includes the one I use for your prompts. Love from Pam n ❤ Pusscat

[@janetnash]

Pam and Pusscat so good to see you. So glad the Happy Mail arrived 💌 that was the first time I had done a journal that big, wondered if I could fill the page, but I really like it. On the way home we got soaked, just had to change into cosy pj’s when I got home ! Enjoy you’re art, family and Spring flowers this week. Sending love from Freddie and me

Oh thank you Karen, oh great news I think you will love it, it just feels so good to use, it’s the one you see me use to do the prompts in during my live. It’s funny because usually I like a smaller journal, it’s fun to have a change ! Let me know if you need any help 🩵

I love your process First time viewer. Thank you so for sharing. I will be trying.

[@ArtsySolutions]

Wow! I really like how you make your glue books!! There are so many gorgeous pages in there. It would be so hard for me to choose which ones to glue together and which ones to tear out. I love how you store your scrap papers in the tin container. Beautiful spine, layering, textures, and overall journal. Thanks for sharing!

[@janetnash]

Artsy Solutions thank you so much, yes I agree, I did choose a magazine that held less interest for me so that really helped ! Have fun with you’re art this coming week.

[@karenk2941]

Hi sweet Janet 🤗, At Goodwill, I bought several cross stitch kits that were all bundled up in plastic. When I got home and opened the bundle. Each kit had the fabric, the embroidery floss and even a little needle in each, but the charts were missing from each one. 😭 Now I’m trying to chart them out by hand (since they are not too detailed) using the cover photos as a guide. It’s the most crafty thing I’ve done in a while.😀 Thank you Janet. You have helped me a lot.💙

[@janetnash]

Karen so good to see you. What a find. How creative you are to develop you’re own pattern from the picture. Will you then put all the threads on a colour chart ( the threads are such a joy to look at and feel 🌈 ) so glad you are feeling creative ( thank you for you’re kind words ) what picture will you create first ? 🧵

[@nads420]

i just got a magazine in the mail yesterday, that i have no interest in, so turning it into a gluebook art journal!!

I've just now found your channel. I've never watching a journal making video but I'm very interested. I have been trying to finish up my Christmas shopping this week. Getting ready to take a trip this weekend to the Host of Christmas Past in Fayetteville, TN. I am in the US. I live in Alabama but from Georgia where I lived for the better part of my life. Wishing you well for the upcoming 2023 holiday season.

[@janetnash]

Kim so lovely to meet you and get to know a little about you. Safe journey this weekend, Christmas past sounds wonderful ( I will look it up on line to get a better idea of it ) have a wonderful time.

[@janetnash]

Oh looked it up it looks wonderful 🎄

[@MossCottageMarket]

Beautiful journal Janet. It looks like it would feel great to hold. You brought back lots of memories for me when you covered the journal. I used to have to cover my books in school. I'd cover them with brown paper bags and then decorate them. I wish I had some of them today so I could see how I decorated them. I can't wait to see how you fill it! Blessings, Helen

[@janetnash]

Helen thank you so much, yes it wasn’t until I started reading comments I remember covering my own books back at school, oh yes if we could go back and see our doodles !! I am sure I had smiley face stickers too and still love using them. Have a Peaceful Sunday.

[@Butterfly.Creations]

I am loving your videos. I enjoy seeing your office/craft room & everything you have in the background. Thank you for sharing these fun art projects. I just got 37 magazines from a local thrift store and I've already been taking out pages to start a glue book. When I was younger it was called "collage" and I wish I had kept the books I did back then. I'm learning to keep my art regardless of how it turns out and how I feel about it because I enjoy going back and looking through them. 💕 I am curious, do you make process videos of the pages that are in books like in the video? I enjoy seeing the finished product & would love to see the process from start to finish of a few pages being created. I am curious as to how you add so much texture and layers. I'll keep looking through your videos and hopefully find one 😊

[@janetnash]

Thank you so very much I genuinely enjoy spending time with everyone and making the videos and lives, you’re lovely comment is so appreciated. Oh what fun, what a score to get the magazines. Oh yes it is such fun to look back on what we have done, I do find it relaxing. Have fun and let me know how it’s going with you’re creating. I don’t think I have done a collage process video I think I did on a live. I will put that down on my list and make. ❤️

[@artsmigi2250]

Just love the idea of yours using a magazine as a gluebook. Very clever .

[@janetnash]

Migi thank you, really no idea is new, I must have seen this somewhere and then we put our own spin on things. I certainly will enjoy using it and hope this week you find a way to do some art ( no pressure though ) the theme that ran through my finished one was ‘ be kind to yourself ‘
