I love it! I'm making a Bible gluebook but didn't realize at the time what the differences are. Scrapbooks are so cool and I keep planning on finishing mine, but I rarely start it other than adding stuff to particular pages. A gluebook sounds like a better way to start for someone like me that is scatterbrained lol!

It looks like a snapshot of any business day at the Post Office. I didn't realize I wanted to make something with a single theme until I saw this. You have truly helped me with my creative process, showing me I do not have to include every idea in a single piece. Outlining different creation processes for different types of books was extremely technically informative as well! Thank you so much for taking time to create and post this video! 😊

I have never made a junk journal, but admire all the work that goes into making one. I do turn old books into collage books. I take out some of the pages and then glue pages together, to make them stonger. Also I decorate the covers. For instance I have one book that is the collages that I did for Margarete's 2021 challenge. It's a wonderful keepsake for me.

Actually, they are all works of art, but I like that you said you've been working on that one particular book for about 3 years!!!! That helps take a lot of pressure off, I can tell others that you have taken this long and yours is not finished yet. It's like people want you to be through in 2 days!!!!!!!

I can create pockets, tucks and sewn-trimmed pages, flip-outs and glue them in without worrying about binding or a book cover. I just have to make sure I don't add too much without estimating what to take away. Thank you for your informative video! You now have a new subscriber!

Thanks for a great, informative video. The altered dictionary is stunning. I’m so glad you shared that. Your sons passport book is a wonderful idea. I think I’ll get out my expired passports & turn them into something similar :) I have an altered book that is so far almost three years in the making. It’s a copy of the book It, by Stephen King. It was unwanted by its previous owner. I wanted to use a copy of It or Pet Semetary, as these were the first two books of Stephen’s that I read, when I was way too young to be reading them! It will probably take years to finish, as I don’t work on it every day, but I’m ok with that.

I like your postal journal. I make arty junk journals. I like the recycled materials to not look like their original intent. My favorite style is vintage/grunge. The final journal you showed resonated the most with me. I try to avoid kits, however, as I like my work to be original. I love the dictionary altered book. The artist that made it did a great job. While I am a mixed-media artist, including paper collage, I hated collage in high school art. The type of collage that the instructor promoted reminds me of the glue book idea. Your glue books are not like the others that I have seen that are like that: mostly, magazine collage books. Yours are very nice and remind me more of the "underpants" (coined by LorriMarie Jenkins) of a completed collage. The passport journal is great...reads more like a scrapbook to me. Great idea.

You're right about the passport being a scrapbook. I didn't even realize it until after I finished recording. I was like, "hey, wait a minute!" Ha 🙂 We learn something everyday. I get your point about avoiding kits to keep your work more original. Good for you. Take care. ❤️

Great video, thanks so much, Margarete! Seems to me the book arts world needs to come up with a new term for a book that is made from new materials e.g. printables, decorative paper, ribbon, tags etc. I decided to call a couple of books I made “eclectic books.” They were wedding journals which told a story (scrapbook), made from an old book (altered book), that included ephemera- napkin, flower petals, place card, program from the wedding, gleefully grabbed by me before going into the garbage (junk journal), and it had items glued onto the pages (glue book). So complete overlap of categories! I think clarification of terms is important and recognition of the overlapping of categories is as well, and your effort to do is appreciated.
