Dear Natasha, Please know that you are vitally important to so many of us ...I read the messages from all around the world from people who have turned onto your talent, and believe me, you ARE making a difference... I have come to your channel just to hear your voice, you calm me and inspire me.. I have been a working Artist for 84 years.. (I'm now 86 ) and still making Art every day ! .. Yes I was drawing at 2 ! I also feel a strong connection with the others who write to you, and express their appreciation of you so elequently ! Please draw strenght from all of us who have never met you in person, but love you for what you have done for us !

[@staceycorteville5347]

Hang in there! This is hard. I’m losing alot of my crafting energy. Stick with us young lady! If you only knew how important you are to us, speaking for myself. I love/need to watch you. You keep my head above water! Bless you 🙏🏻💋

[@Juliamay67]

I agree with Stacey - you may no see us but you are a treasure to us. It's ok to be sad, confused but you certainly have a "point". Sending love and thanks from Washington State. (The girl is standing behind a lovely, lacey wrought iron gate.)

[@hummerklein2567]

I love to watch you please give me you , I know Iv told you befor you are part of me healing from the death of my husband after 40 years I need your soft voice I don’t do and jj. yet I just watch you over and over again please don’t go anywhere you give me so much JOY GOD BLESS EVERY THING YOU TOUCH.

@@TreasureBooks Just remember how very much God loves you...He gives us peace, but He also gives us each other, & we carry each other's burdens (which in a real way helps lessen our own!) Thank you for your marvelous, beautiful videos! Hugs from the U.S.!

[@bobclark9379]

Sherrie Clark. thank you so much for your fabulous tutorials. My friend and I coordinate our crafting by watching your together by phone. You have brought us much joy in these dark times and we so appreciate your willingness to share your wonderful ideas. Thank you for sharing your feelings as I have felt some days what is the point and then we watch you and accomplish so many endearing projects. So please continue to share so we can be uplifted together.

[@TreasureBooks]

Thank you so much Sherrie, that makes me so happy!!!

[@cindyhenry1410]

Oh I was so saddened to hear you are down 🙁. I so love your videos and the beautiful things you make! Please know there are many here that really appreciate the terrific crafting that is presented on KZbin and your tutorials are some of the best I’ve seen! I just want to say thank you for all that you do ❤️

[@TreasureBooks]

Thank you so much Cindy. That means a lot :)

[@sherryclark4862]

"Where's her legs?..." 😂 I agree, she needed her legs. Thanks for the great ideas and sharing your feelings about the effects of being in lockdown. The wave of trying to stay positive versus anxiety versus "what's the point" is spot on for many. I'm near New Orleans, USA and riding that wave too. When you feel like "what's the point" remind yourself that you are providing a valuable source of therapy for people all around the world! Stay well!

[@rosannewilliams9005]

I kept wanting to shove the lace under her dress like a petticoat! Lol

[@TreasureBooks]

Thank you so much Sherry :)

[@marilynmccormick3731]

Yes, I was wondering about the legs too. Looks good.

[@marthamanigross]

Sending you big hugs 🤗. One day at a time. The struggle is real. Don’t give up crafting and creating because for people like us, it feeds our souls. Also be kind to yourself. Who would have ever thought the entire world would ever need to be in quarantine! Not I, and I’ll be 64 this year. Love what you did. Gave me some ideas! 🤗

[@TreasureBooks]

Thank you so much Martha. If someone told us last year that THIS would be happening, we would have NEVER believed them!

[@marthamanigross]

Soooo true!! I’ve not lived through anything like this. I think about my 5 and 9 year old grand daughters and wonder how their future will look. We, as humans, are survivors. We need to stay strong and lean on each other. I’m very glad you are still creating. Know you are loved and appreciated!!! Hugs!

[@rebeccagable9629]

This shutdown won't last forever---HOPE :- )

It is difficult for each of us....day by day......please carry on crafting....we love to see you....🤗☀️

[@TreasureBooks]

Thank you so much Patricia :)

[@eileennielsen3607]

I love each and every one of these Natasha! I've been feeling like you;it's getting to me now. I live in Michigan, USA, and we are the 3rd hardest hit in the country. Just yesterday we had 205 people die. My county being the worst. I can only look to God and pray. I very much look forward to your videos. I love ALL that you make, I like your voice (I find it soothing), I like your comments, suggestions...I just enjoy YOU. You bring a "comfortable visit" a time to look forward to, a happy spot. So thank you so, so, much! Yet don't think you can't be honest when you are down. We love and support you . You are perfect the way you are and brighter days are coming. We will be better women for this time. God bless you and your family!

[@TreasureBooks]

Thank you so much Eileen. Please take care and stay safe. Brighter days are coming, just as you say!

[@chewiedoggable]

I hope you continue your artful inspiring videos that motivate me each time I watch them. I have severe back pain and I only can work at my art desk for sometimes only 20 minutes anymore. I still try though because what you do helps me believe that I can at least do one and sometimes more than one. You are very gifted and we, your viewers, are all better because of that gift you so freely share with us. Thank you. Also, know that this pandemic will end and you have helped many of us be distracted for a few minutes with each of your KZbin videos. 😊

[@TreasureBooks]

Thank you so much! I'm sorry to hear of your back pain. Its so horrible having to deal with that every day. I feel for you. You just keep on crafting and doing things that bring you joy, even if its for only 20 minutes :) What a fighter you are

[@Jana-TheCraftyGambler]

Natasha, I know what you mean about keeping yourself busy during these trying times, if I wasn’t busy making masks for anyone who needs them, I would definitely be making my journals. I think staying busy and making something that is beautiful, or doing something that gives you joy, helps keep the blues away. I have had so many people ask for masks that I am busy from sunup to sundown, and there have been a lot of sleepless nights trying to make enough masks for the ones who have requested them. I had made a ton of little fabric stuffed bunnies for my grand kids Easter baskets but I don’t feel comfortable sending them in the mail now, so I just put them in a basket with a sign that says “ These bunnies need a good home” so when people come to pick up their masks, they can choose a cute bunny to take home with them. Everyone has really enjoyed them so far.

[@TreasureBooks]

You are one amazing human being! Thank you :)

[@blue-penmisty-dawn3682]

Hi Natasha. Thank you for being you ❣ I love your video style & attention to details. Lovely project. Keep safe & blessings to all.💜

[@TreasureBooks]

Thank you so much!!!

[@rgporter1957]

These are just lovely! It's a great way to create, spend some time in the moment, plan and dream of a better day, and pretty soon you have a nice pile of pretty pieces to use in a variety of ways. You are a precious soul, Natasha, and when asking yourself, "what's the point?", you answer it by saying that it brings you joy. That should be all the reason you need. Plus WE need you to create these great things to inspire us to do more and spread the joy!❤❤❤

[@rosannewilliams9005]

I always look forward to your videos. I love hearing your accent and your actual conversation. I love how you give us a blow by blow of how your mind is processing whatever it is you are working on. That is soooo helpful! Also, don't forget we may not know what tomorrow brings, but we can know the One who holds our hand through it all. This too shall pass! You're a beautiful soul and it comes through.🧡

[@TreasureBooks]

Thank you so very much Rosanne!! :)

[@aprilcarter749]

Beautiful embellishments & good ideals for journal covers. I just keep crafting something new everyday to keep myself busy. You are valuable to all who watch you & appreciated for you new ideals. Stay positive & think happy thought, & remember “THIS TO SHALL PAST”.

[@TreasureBooks]

This too shall pass indeed! Thank you so much :)

[@KD-yy6on]

Love your crafts there beautiful tfs

[@susanmyrick2913]

Perfectionism is one thing that sets your work apart. "God is in the details.", as they say. I want to say also how I appreciate that you take the time to edit and fast forward through the repetitive parts. Also...just to say...What keeps me from the tyranny of an uncertain future is to trust a Creator who shelters us under His wings. Such a beautiful picture. Blessings to you, dear Natasa.

[@TreasureBooks]

Thank you so much Susan. Blessings to you too :)

[@debracarter7290]

I’m four years late but love these journal embellishments! Thank you for sharing! ❤

[@TreasureBooks]

Thank you so much Lyn, indeed we are all in this together

[@evelynrauseo467]

I am crazy over the moon for these! The lace was a great idea. I never would have thought of it. I didn’t go out much before either. I thought I would have no problem with staying in either. I have found, however, that in the last week and a half my emotions are up and down the charts. Thank God for my KZbin buddies. You are keeping us all sane. God bless. Stay safe. Shared to Pinterest, so others will find you.

[@TreasureBooks]

Thank you so much Evelyn!!!

[@385lidia]

I often feel very similar to how you feel. Originally I come from Poland and I have never been through as extreme ordeal as you have but it was hard. For some reason what is happening here, now brings the memories back. I think its the uncertainty of the future and the police state we seem to be experiencing, plus many other things connected to this situation. Sometimes I'm down, other times I'm up but its like living in constant anxiety. I know most of us feel the same. Crafting is great and it does help, so let's be crafty and arty as much as we can on any given day. And if we take a day off that's OK too. Lots of hugs.

[@TreasureBooks]

Excellent advice, thank you. May we keep on arting and crafting out blues away :)

[@helenredfern6319]

This is such a beautiful project, you are so inspiring and I LOVE listening to you 😊🌺🌺🌺

[@mrsdscraftdesk]

We get the moods, really we do. Take strength in that- you are not alone in feeling that way. 🙏🏼❤️ Love the little girl story btw!

[@TreasureBooks]

Thank you so much. It feels good knowing I'm not alone. Even though logically I already know everyone must be feeling this way, but hearing it from others gives me a boost - not because I want others to feel poorly, but because I feel like we are all in this together, so its not so isolating.

[@mrsdscraftdesk]

Treasure Books I totally agree!

[@wandarios1711]

I’ve just learned of “Junk Journaling” or “Treasure Books” and I do believe they are keeping me sane during this crazy time. I think my husband was about to send me away as he even said he was glad I found this new passion. The little girl has legs and feet. It’s just that her dress is so long ( Mom didn’t have time to shorten it before the party) that it is covering them 😜 I enjoy your videos!!! Keep up the good work so we can all stay sane together! 😜

[@OnePeacefulMind_2024]

please natasha, never stop making your beautiful things - a crafter on KZbin stopped and got rid of all her stuff bc she absolutely decided to stop crafting and believe me it made me sooo sad bc her journals were stunning - her style everything was just beautiful - so i feel the same way towards your work - if it helps keeping you crafting I'm SURE I'm not the only one who learns tones of goodness with your videos - i love your style everything you make - I've made so many projects inspired by yours - thank you thank you girl - we all absolutely love 💕 you

Its a great hobby giving a book a new extended life, it is a unique thing that can be nurtured for years! My journals are made with love and great care, a lot for gifts, for special people in my life! You are doing a great job!

Wow, thank you!

[@Nancy0162]

I love your process of creating! I think there are many of us who feel exactly the way you do and the affects of the current situation are having on us. I am a homebody so this isn't too much of a sacrifice. Mentally, I definitely have lots of ups and downs right now. That's when I turn off the news and go outside and enjoy nature. I have lost my creative "mojo" but watching your videos; especially this one, does motivate me to try this. Thank you for that. We're all in this together and for some, this crafting world is a way to escape from all the negativity happening around us; even if it's just for a little while. Don't stop. You never know how it affects someone who is having a rough day. You are such an inspiration, Natasha and for that, this girl is grateful. 🙂💗

[@TreasureBooks]

Nancy thank you so much for your kind words. It means the world to me. I have also been spending a lot of time in nature, and it is so healing :)

[@ritalira6869]

Thank you for being so real. I love your videos, and I understand about the ups and down. Just know that many, many people are inspired by you. From Southern California. Rita

[@sylvaniansdownunder]

I purchased a journal from you in December 2019 ready for the new year, I was soooo excited 😀 I use it each day and without a doubt I run my fingers through the pages and listen to the sound of paper and smile each time I fluff around with the textures of embellishments. This is the joy I get from a journal maker I have never met❤️. So please know that you are appreciated, respected as a crafter and wait patiently to view your next video. 🤗🤗🤗🤗

Thank you SO much Eva!!!!!! That warms my heart :)

I totally get the “ legs” thing... looks fine while fussy cutting but then...! I also get the roller coaster of emotions so many of us are experiencing right now. There is good in the storm, families are spending more time together, the earth has a chance to breathe, and kindness abounds in caring for our neighbours. Thank you for caring for us by sharing and inspiring creativity. God bless you. 🙏❤️🤗

[@mypaperjourney]

Hi Natasha! I hear you and I understand what you're feeling right now. I'm a stay at home person myself and it wasn't bothering me but yes, it's taking a toll on things. I say the same thing, what's the point. I haven't done a lot of crafting and should take advantage of the extra time but I've been busy sewing masks and giving them out to family, friends, my son's co-workers and even through the fast food drive through people. Just hang in there. I love your work even though I don't always comment. I like that you keep things simple. That's my same thought. Though there's time I over do things. Chin up and may GOD protect you and your family during this virus trial the whole world is facing. You're not alone. Keep crafting we all need to inspire each other, specially in these times.

[@TreasureBooks]

Thank you so much. You are amazing to be making masks and thinking of others and being of service to them. Thank you

[@darleneboehm9666]

I have made all 10, and I am going to make this one today. There is a purpose or reason for doing what we do. You help me cope with everything because I get lost in my craft especially the ones of yours that I do because they allow me to get very creative and lose myself for a few hours. Thank you. Please keep going because you are keeping a lot of people going too. Cheers! There will be a normal life again after this. I promise. We appreciate all that you do to help us. I’m half a world away in Canada, and you can reach me to help me. Don’t underestimate your ability to help others through tiny screens all over the world.

Thank you so much Darlene for such an uplifting, beautiful comment :)

[@nancykloak1163]

Yes, this is an incredibly trying time. I appreciate your willingness to create videos. What you’re doing is important to me because the entertainment and distraction you are providing takes my mind off the anxiety I am struggling with because my son and daughter in law are nurses in Denmark. I am so grateful I found junk journals in February. They give me comfort both in making them and in watching videos about them.

I enjoy being home but not being able to see my daughter and grandchildren in more than a year is tough...I’m not whining, we are all definitely in the same boat/position as some have already said. So thank you, Natasa!❤️ I look forward to seeing your videos and am the proud owner of some of your “treasure books.”🥰

[@suzyemery]

I just love this video so much! Very cool to have things already made for the front of journals. Because sometimes, coming up with an idea for decorating a cover can be the hardest part. "Love my dress, and love my hat" You, my crafty friend, are so much fun! And...I know we are living in a real trying time at the moment. The experience can be very overwhelming. But we will get through it. I have my blue moments, as well. And, I just think sometimes... having a glass of wine and some chocolates, does a girl good!! Haha...no truly, it will be ok. I appreciate everything you do for us, as I'm sure we all enjoy your tutorials very much...So keep on keepin' on. We'll get through it together!

[@AnnaCWilliams]

Natasha, I really enjoy your simplicity and ANALITY...IS THAT A WORD??? You are engaging, inspiring, and very encouraging, as a craft artist. I am 71 and am returning to this as a passion, after many years of back burner unfulfillment. I have found, however, that having a "WHAT'S the USE MOMENT is ACTUALLY what has hindered me the most when I have allowed time and situations to interrupt my purpose. So thank my Redeemer, Christ Jesus for being a Restorer of my paths to walk in. I pray you are not only coping but are finding God's grace to help you in this season, as we all have need of supernatural intervention. You are HOPE for my REBOUND, so keep your Videos Coming. Thank you for your channel. It is a true blessing. August 14, 2020

Hi Natasha. I've just watched this. It's Jan of 2022. To hear how difficult you've had it really struck a cord with me. I'm only now after about a year and a half of not really creating, am becoming nterested again. Your video along with many others is inspiring me. So to anyone reading this comment. If you're feeling uninspired my recommendations are to watch creative content on you tube, tidy your creative space and just make something, anything even if it's crap and you throw it away. Just do something. Your mojo will return xxx stay safe

[@melissamercer1978]

Thank you so much for your inspiration! I love your story telling, especially the ones that tell the story of what you have just created, like the little girl in the blue dress!💙💙💙

[@TreasureBooks]

Thank you so much!

[@marilynmccormick3731]

I really appreciate than you aim for quality. I think quality is in the details; just like in clothing or home furnishings. It's what makes your projects so interesting to watch and try to duplicate

[@rebeccagable9629]

Simple yet wonderful! Will use these for many of my handmade cards!! TY from California...

[@nairafoganholi6563]

I loved it, Natasa! Thank you so much! Please keeping motivated and doing things! We need you! ❤️

[@TreasureBooks]

Thank you so much Naira!!

[@deborahburgess2599]

I've been feeling exactly the same way as you have described. Trying to stay motivated with uncertainty lurking is hard. I always find your video's so inspiring, thank you for all of them. You are amazing 😍

[@rhondasruminationsonreading]

I'm just loving your videos. They are really helping me with my anxiety right now. The butterflies are my favourite. I love the book plate idea on it!

[@TreasureBooks]

Thank you so much Rhonda! I too have struggled with anxiety. If you have time, check out The Anxiety Guy (on KZbin)

Do people still leave hate comments about books being torn apart? Lol I mean look at the millions of ways we use them and the beautiful projects that are created with each and every bit of the books! We may tear them up but we most definitely make it worth it...and I think using the pages...torn or not is better than the books sitting on shelves collecting dust for years and years after being read once or twice... and then eventually thrown away. FYI We love books just as much MAYBE EVEN MORE than the "book police" that come around and leave those silly comments!

[@TreasureBooks]

I know, right!! We are the ULTIMATE lovers of books!!!

[@lorettavalmorbida7793]

I Love your journal covers very beautiful.

[@cynthiahamm48]

You are wonderful Natasha! I love this video, I've been making bookplates from another video and you've inspired me again... seems like every video I watch does that. I've been stuck on yours now for a while. Stay positive. I know that staying home and being told you have to stay home just makes the whole thing feel totally different. Just know that we love you!

[@TreasureBooks]

Thank you so much Cynthia. It means a lot!!

[@paulinemcintyre4739]
