That’s such a cool idea! I just want to say i hate when you speed through the embellishing part cause i LOVE watching that! Gives ideas and NEVER boring 🥰

[@drummergirl495]

Beautiful project, as always! Quite a while back when you did the tutorial on the bookmark, I went to a drawer in my bedroom and pulled out all the hand fans that I kept even though they were all in some stage of falling apart. I just couldn’t bear to throw them away because they were so pretty and destined to live in a ziplock baggie forever BUT, since watching your video, I have easily made 20 or so bookmarks and they all look different, embellished with nothing but stray beads, scrap fabric, charms from broken jewelry pieces and bits and bobs of laces, ribbons and trims. Thank you for all your tutorials and the massive amount of time it must have taken to come up with ideas, write out instructions (you’re the best at that) and making the videos. Your channel has definitely inspired me many times and I don’t think I’ve missed a video. Thank you for sharing your creativity and talent....♥️🥰♥️

[@TreasureBooks]

Thank you so very much! It means a lot that you watch my videos, thank you :)

[@bknight7698]

And even MORE inspiration in this envelope video! You said in one of your other videos that you couldn’t draw or paint....but you’re so good with colors, & you certainly have an artistic eye so... you ‘paint’ that way. Your drawings are fun and whimsical but just ‘work’ with whatever you’re designing. Especially those little houses and layered books. 👍❤️BFE

[@bernicechiniborch2600]

I think journals sometimes take on their own path. This is so nice. Thanks for sharing.🇨🇦

[@TreasureBooks]

So true! Thanks for watching :)

[@rosalindmartz6585]

Love this idea. What a terrific way to use up those large junk ail envelopes that come to us. Great inexpensive gift idea too.

[@judithcassimatis5288]

Now I know what to do with some of those extra large envelopes I've hoarded. Lots of extra journal ideas too. Thank you.

[@caroltanzi29]

It’s quite lovely. That piece of fan with the tassel is genius.

never bored in your videos. Cute “if you are still here”. Your videos could be two hours and i would watch. Alway so inspirational. I needed to hear some of the things you said. thanks!

[@rosannewilliams9005]

I would watch two hours too! In fact, I often replay the old ones again (and again!) I'm sure I missed something the first 7 times I watched them! Ha!

[@robinsutton4952]

I spent last weekend watching all her videos and back this weekend. My husband said I don’t pay that much attention to him. I told him he wasn’t a 12 x 12 piece of paper or an envelope. He didn’t find any humor in that.

[@joseecarbonneau1205]

I discovered your Channel among many and I have to say that you are my favorite for many reasons. You are professional, prepared, clear, interesting, creative and probably more. I enjoy watching your video from far away on the other side of the world from you but connected in some ways. Junk journal is new for me and I have to say that I don’t really like the word junk. But if I had to purchase one it will be from you. Just waiting for the one that will Connect with me. thnak you. Josée

[@rebeccasamaniego9616]

Thank you for uploading this video. I want to tell you I have watched many videos on junk journaling. They have been overwhelming but beautiful. But the way you have shown how to use a large envelope as a junk journal is perfect. I have wanted to try to do one, now I feel I can because of you in this video. Again thank you! 💖💖💖💯

[@TreasureBooks]

Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!!

[@rosannewilliams9005]

Fun idea! Looks like this is a project that you kind of wing-as-you-go! I usually like to know where I'm headed so this would be good to push me out of my comfort zone. I like how you showed how to fix or adjust the unexpected things that came up. That was helpful! Also, would love to see a video on YOUR process of dying paper.

Thank you so much Rosanne :) Great idea to do a paper dying video :)

How funny you did this the same day I finally found a purpose for one I started making last summer! It is finally starting to look cute to me and I can't wait to start gluing and stitching pretty things into it. I just love the "fan tail" you made as a bookmark!!! I am headed to that tutorial now.

Hi Natasa: Love the way you randomly pull things out of a box and create such beautiful pieces. That journal cover is stunning! Decoupaging the napkin on top was brilliant.

SweetHEART!! This is SUCH a good and timely idea. I've recently been thinking that I can make embellishments til the cows come home but I don't have a journal to put them in. Just yesterday, cuz I bought a new paper pack, I decided I would make a small journal and put SOMETHING I'd premade on pretty much every page, just to get myself over the... I dunno... fear? ...of using stuff up. Sounds silly, I know. Your "adamant to use this" attitude is tres' inspiring and I'd like to borrow it for the weekend so I can break into my stuff stash and have something to show for my months of effort. ...the room I'm repainting can wait!! 🤔🤫🤭🤣🖌🖌 ...I mean really, what's one more day? Thank you so very much. Love and hugs, just like always, from the Southern California desert, MK. 💗🌞🌵 Oh!!! And I bought a hand fan a couple months back cuz I knew I'd seen you do something wonderful with one, just couldn't remember what it was, and don'tcha know, out of the clear blue as I was watching this very video it came to me!! ...isn't that amazing??!!!??
