Omg, 😍🥰 First I'm so excited to find another Aussie journaler, This was super cute. Well done Hun.👌👏👏👏💜

[@TheBohoSuitcase]

Hi fellow Aussie 👋🏻

[@TheJournalOutlet]

I’m not exaggerating when I say I’ve watched this 3 times a day for a week straight. It’s just so inspiring. I felt like I had to match and coordinate EVERYTHING until I watched this. It has sparked so much creativity and now my “vintage and orange” junk journal has turned into an array of colors. I feel so much more excited to enter my craft room and just throw a bunch of “junk” together.

[@TheBohoSuitcase]

I'm so glad I would love to see you creation!

[@TheJournalOutlet]

And here I am 6 months later watching again 😅

[@rhondan5427]

I rarely comment but want you to know I learned so much by watching your video. I’m new to using these sweet books and didn’t know where to begin. You are amazing and thank you!!

[@kixyoung3607]

This is easily one of the best process videos I’ve ever watched on junk journals. I’ve just gotten back into making them and this was so very helpful and enjoyable to watch.

[@helengibson8196]

I'm so glad I watch this video. I learnt so much. Thank you from a fellow aussie. 🌷

[@wendythomas4930]

I haven't finished a video yet, but I have to say.....Thank you so much! You are an excellent teacher, and now I think I can make one, too.🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

[@LuvsSno]

Love all her hints, but..OMG, that music w/same three notes over and over and over 😱😱😱😱

[@user-st4ye2cm9r]

Wonderful, helpful video that was so well done... except for an hour of those three notes in the music.

[@mimil8021]

i was thinking the same thing !!!

[@dawncrowder8834]

This has got to be the best video on LGB. Beautiful and enjoyable

[@TheBohoSuitcase]

That's so kind of you Dawn ♥️

[@makaea97]

I'd have to agree with you Dawn and like you I've watched quite a few

[@deidreekelley]

I wish I could like your video again! I love your style and have learned so much about how to take a book apart and put it back together again the way I want it to be. Thanks so much, all the way from Texas!⭐️❤️🤍💙⭐️

[@JoMamaLuvsReptiles]

Brilliant. I love your tutorial. You were straight to the point. No dog, cat, or bird noises. No sewing machine noise. The music in the back groud is nice. Your voice is soothing. You made it look easy and simple. I have found a ton of golden books and I have a ton more of unused scrapbook paper. I work 70 hrs a week. But... I set aside one weekend to make my book. I love the system you have. Thank you very much. I am also a new subscriber. You are number 1 in my book! Bless you. And thank you for sharing.

[@lianeyoung3921]

Fabulous video - love the step by step instructions. Thank you!

[@Meyersci]

Thank you for the concise and thorough tutorial. I love how the time is compressed and the narrative is overdubbed. I learned so many new things and your instructions gave me the confidence to know I can do this , too!

[@wendythomas4930]

That is soo packed and chunky!🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡

[@cynthiafrasca2853]

Im new to the junk journaling community and love watching all of the fantastic videos! This one is no exception. I just saw some Golden Books in an antique place I was in today and after this video I think I might go back and buy the lot! I have tons of bright children themed scrapbook paper from making my kids scrapbooks that would finally find a great home!

[@bingbingmacadangdang2582]

This was so inspiring!!! Extremely creative and well done!! Thank you!

[@stallmap]

This is fabulous! So glad I found this gal! Thank you!

[@lourdesking123]

Worth the almost 1 hour watching it.thank you for sharing

[@rockinkitten]

Lovely tutorial! I like that you get straight to the point. Some tutorials can take over 10 minutes to get to the actual instructions and I lose interest. But this one was great and I watched the whole thing. I now understand why these journals cost a lot, so much work goes into them!

[@TheBohoSuitcase]

Thank you so much! Let me know if there are any other videos you would like to see :) -Lucinda

[@rockinkitten]

@@TheBohoSuitcase I will check out your other videos 💖

[@angelinaspaperandapothecar7177]

Exactly.

[@ca6177]

I agree!

[@candaceestrada5744]

I can’t wait to make some of these for my daughters. They have books that have already fallen apart and this would be such a keepsake for them to have something from their childhood!! TFS!!

[@michellecaton2195]

I know I'm late on this, but what a great tutorial. I have all of my children's Golden books from 30 years ago. I now know what to do with them. Thank you.

[@lisamorales3914]

I like your style of teaching. Thank you! 🥰

[@SusanSheehy]

Great tutorial! Thank you for taking us through the entire process!

[@sundownmcgrath3492]

FANTASTIC!!!! Love, love. You are great, love the way you get straight to the point. And don't prattle on and on about non journal related stuff. Thank you so much. I am now a committed fan.

[@lyriclovercrafts]

This is so beautiful and an incredible tutorial! Thank you for sharing. :) Amber

[@brigitvanrooij1689]

Amazing! So many ideas and inspiration. Thank you so much for sharing this. I love working with children's books. I will sure try this one day soon. Thank you!💕✨

[@jenniferknowles7219]

I really enjoyed this video. It went at a great pace and I love how you did the flip through at the end. I also really love how you kept the pages of the story. I am so inspired to try this ! It’s super super cute. Thanks for sharing. 😍😍😍😍😍😍

[@TheBohoSuitcase]

Thanks so much looking forward to seeing what you create!

[@thesaucyfoodie6315]

I looooove this video! Thank you for your thorough tutorial and great inspiration. I’ve been collecting Little Golden Books bc I want to make some. Your video is wonderful! Hugs Janice from Orlando Florida USA

[@impalamama7302]

You have such a gift! You say you just put things together without any attempt to match, but they look brilliant. When I try to do that it looks like a confused muddle lol. Great tutorial, best one yet I've seen on LGB.

[@livingauthenticallyonmyownterm]

The love you put into your journal is amazing to see! Such a neat gift, even for a gramma like me that had this book as a child. Your video brought tears to my eyes, and I want to thank you so much for making my evening so wonderful hunny. Much love to you sweet soul!!! ✨✨✨

[@sharonharper4651]

I just loved your book, it is so beautiful ❤️ and the way you showed your technique was amazing. It helped so much on my book I'm working. Thank you your friend Sharon Harper looking forward to another episode 😘

[@TheBohoSuitcase]

Hey Sharon thank you so much! Is there other things in particular you would like to see?

[@TheJournalOutlet]

This is one of those journals that just makes me so so so so so happy and cheerful

[@Anne-xk7st]

I have watched so many Little Golden Book tutorials but hands down this is the best I have seen. I love how to the point it is without all the faffing about that some videos have. Start to finish I shall be using this video to guide me through my first attempt at a Christmas LGB. Thank you so much for taking the time to share this. xxx

[@marinaguajardo3527]

Hello!! Great idea!! I loved!! I congratulate you! Greetings from México

[@stacylinn3102]

Thanks so much for sharing! I am so in love with this journal! You are very straightforward and I really appreciate that! I absolutely love how eclectic it all is too because I am the same way!

[@MamaH329]

I didn't even notice the tune....glad of that, I guess. Loved the video! Thanks!

[@ca6177]

I certainly enjoyed your tutorial. Others I've seen don't actually show how to do the project! I will take your advice and use my sewing machine! Thanks again!

[@CoalMinersDaughter53]

Just amazing. Beautiful 🌹. Thank you 👋👋👋👋

[@sanan4144]

What a stunning and oh so generously filled journal! I loved your tutorial 🥰

[@cynthiagaly4026]

just love your tutorial, very excellent on explaining each step loved watching .

[@MsIslandV]

Beautiful! I want to try my hand making one! Need to look at my thrift store to find some golden books!

[@carolewatkins1171]

I really enjoyed this video. You have a good way of showing how to put the journal together. I especially liked how you moved the video along, your comments were just the right amount and enjoyable! I’m glad I found this video tonight.

[@bettymetz3746]

So here I am a year after you have made this video and have just found you! You make it look so easy!! Thanks. I am new to junk journaling and have yet to make my first journal.... just collecting things. Bless you for working so hard to teach!!

[@TheBohoSuitcase]

Thank you Betty I hope you have started your making journey!

[@Canadian693]

Thanks for sharing your tutorial. I have made a few Golden Book journals, but I am definitely going to make some following your tutorial. New subbie from Northern Alberta, Canada 🇨🇦.

[@triciasloft189]

I'm new here thanks so much for this video. Hi from Canada 🇨🇦 Vancouver Island

[@daniellesmith8568]

This is such an amazing junk journal and one of the best (very detailed and thorough) tutorials I’ve seen!😊 Thank you so much for taking the time to create and share this video… it’s very much appreciated!

[@jacquiknight339]

I absolutely love this video, thank you so much for sharing. I’m a fellow Aussie and was so great to see I had collected similar things to you. I’m also an Op Shop girl and get a lot of my supplies there. I also have never found vintage ledger paper, but I just buy new ledger books and distress. I’m very lucky where I live (country NSW) no one realises what they can do with beautiful old lace and trims, so whenever it comes in store I get it very cheaply. Please keep up your videos, I love them. 😍

[@annmariepszybylski3704]

REALLY artistic! Thank you for sharing so many tips. Just beautiful. Hope to get brave enough to start one.....

[@pookylovesrabbit]

You are so lovely and generous for sharing with us. Thank you!

[@Lizaxoxo3]

Love your work and ideas , very clever !!!!

[@mpm6634]

Precioso trabajo, me encantó. Gracias por compartirlo. Saludos desde Argentina 🇦🇷

[@wandalorenz7688]

What a great tutorial I learned so much I had actually never seen the 5 hole stitch done. Thanks so much can’t wait to watch more.

[@MA-bt8il]

This is incredibly adorable! It was a bit daunting to consider watching a 52 minute video because of time constraints, but I am so glad I chose to do it. It was marvelous! Your encouragements and tips along the way are so helpful and inspiring. I can't wait to do my own Little Golden Book journal now! Thank you so much! Blessings! :)

[@TheBohoSuitcase]

I'm so glad shade you beautiful creation with me when you finish I'd love to see!

[@ManonVelasco]

I really enjoyed this video, it's such a cute book with all those different papers! And the instructions are really clear and easy to follow!

[@sandyross7128]

This is just fabulous! You have inspired me!!!

[@ArunaPrasad]

Absolutely gorgeous!!!!😍

[@monicamelgar3825]

I have watches quite a few tutorials, but yours is definitely one of my favorites, and the one that has inspired me the most to create a Junk Journal of my own. Thank you for all the tips and knowledge you share 🌸

[@beautifulthornbirds]

This is the best video on making a golden book journal that Ive ever watched!!!! Yay you, and thanks so much for sharing! 💕😊💕

[@mzo707x]

Thank you for this wonderful informative tutorial!!! From, n. Calif.

[@LilianGuerrero]

Best LGB process video I've seen. The journal turned out amazing! I also love how you fill up the journal with papers and goodies. Awesome job! TFS

[@sunshinegirl8214]

I just found your channel. Incredible job lady!! I love it! 💜

[@ericad3850]

What a sweet tutorial!

[@lalagamma4452]

New subbie I love the video the tutorial is easy to follow and very Inspirational. Enjoy your day everyone! Have a blessed safe crafty Memorial Day!! 🤗🐞🥰

[@lolitapoly123]

Beautiful. Love it. 💝💝💝💝💝🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

[@kittykat2454]

Thank you for the brilliant tutorial, I've just bought A Little Gold book and I can't wait to get started!! Many thanks again!!

[@joannetowber8958]

Love this! What a fun journal !

[@pamelasokoll8324]

What a great video: start to finish how to with easy to follow instructions. I will definitely be saving this one. Your voice over is perfect: pleasant to listen to. (The music on repeat does get a bit too much). I find I get too involved with producing a consistent theme throughout and while cute it makes the process take forever so a finished product seems daunting. You showed me how to use coordinating scrapbook papers plus the traditional Junk journaliers addons like some ledger, music paper and coffee died pages for interest: streamlines the process so that finished product is more quickly attainable. Thank you. Great job.

[@tammymcarthurhuggan8307]

This was just so fun to watch thank you 😊

[@donnaostrin545]

Absolutely wonderful! Thank you. 📚

[@ajsinspiredlife665]

Love love love this ! Haven’t made one yet but already have the books so I’ll try one soon! Thanks for sharing!

[@karensucher4056]

Absolutely fabulous!❤

[@rozenart5768]

I love how organized you are!! Keeps you from going crazy trying to find things here and there!!

[@TheBohoSuitcase]

Haha it's very much crazy when I'm making multiple at once!

[@ishka28]

I’m like this very much. Thanks for sharing.

[@catmakesdo]

Great demo on using the awl. Switched from the big bite chomper thing to the awl . Was still having trouble , you made it look so easy . Can’t wait to try the awl your way . Big thank you!!!

[@elizabethmaloneorlando217]

TFS Best golden book journal I've seen. ✂🤗📎📂🌻🌼🌞🌈❤🦋🐝

[@cg13456]

This was so creative. I've heard of upcycling golden books but I've never seen it done before. Thank you for the great video. I think my only tiny comment is that I wish you had been able to save the "golden book" silver binding and added it back somehow. That binding is what makes a golden book to me. :)

[@MonaCreel]

Cg13456, look at Kim Kan’t Stop Krafting, Little Golden Book junk journal tutorial. She uses the golden book binding, and doesn’t cut it off. I think you would like seeing how she does it. 🥰

[@theolachapman6126]

Your journal is beautiful ☝️😀 Theola

[@TheBohoSuitcase]

Thank you!

[@lindseywarren44]

This was so good! You were succinct and detailed without alot of extraneous comment 😉 You explained everything in such a way that I could easily follow step by step. This is one of the best binding vids I have seen and I so appreciate your time and trouble. Thank you very much! Blessings

[@YanaVallie]

I love eclectic! Some magic always happens and in the end everything looks like it belongs ✨ You explained everything really well 🤗

[@madelyncancel3806]

I found your channel and I watch it to the end and I love it so much that I became a new subscriber to your channel. It inspired me to work on my LGB I didn’t know how to start it, but you made it so easy thanks for sharing your ideas 💕

[@Emmaandlucy743]

Very nice thank you for sharing your talents

[@angelinaspaperandapothecar7177]

Awesome video and tutorial. Yours is so easy to follow and understand and you don't go on and on like some do. I am so happy I found you.

[@louisebroesky4554]

Thank you so much that was very informative thank you for taking the time to do this is a great video I watched it right to the end and I learned a lot

[@julielee3687]

Wow this is amazing .I ❤️ the idea of using children’s book. I can see myself getting into making this. Not so much for journaling but for the creative process ❤️❤️❤️

[@mickyyoung4079]

Great video. You are very skilled and a highly competent teacher.
