Very pretty! Great idea to mass make journaling covers! I have never considered doing that, but I have so much packaging and it needs to be used or tossed! But this makes sense to me, I can always gift the covers if I find someone who can use them. Thanks for sharing.😊

[@houseofmahalo]

Thank you Wanda!! I'm glad you like the idea of doing this... I think it can be helpful to have them partly ready to go rather than just packaging sitting there 😊💖

[@newlifeaj]

I absolutely love your process and your positive attitude! Beautiful journals! Hello from British Columbia, Canada! I've just subscribed to your channel. 😊

[@houseofmahalo]

Aww, thank you so much! I hope you enjoy my videos... hello there from Bristol, England 🥰💖

No one likes ironing. I think most young Americans don't even own one! Here's a trick I saw and use - not for large fabric, but if you have ribbon or seam binding that you want to "iron," use a hair straightener! Love the pillow case cover, Justine. I could use some nicer book plates. I finished the covers I made for February Stashbusting and am filling each one with 2 signatures. Still need to decorate the front and add some charms. So here's my question for today - will you use these for one signature or more? I would love to see a video with different kinds of closures. Maybe there's one in your playlist. Thanks for sharing with us.😁

[@houseofmahalo]

Oh yes, I've heard that about the hair straighteners. I'm too chicken to try it though... like could it catch fire? 😅 Hmm... I think the smaller ones will be just 1 signature. The big one will probably take 2. I prefer one signature journals because I get bored otherwise 🙈😅 I actually have it on my list to do a blog post about journal closures - similar to how I did the embellishments blog you read. So watch this space I guess 😉💖

[@JeanneJordanexteach]

@@houseofmahalo - Looking forward to "all about closures!' Justine, it's not going to catch fire if you just run a piece of ribbon through. I set mine on medium heat and sometimes need to run it though a few times to get it smoothed out. Of course most journal makers seem to like the crinkly look better 😁Sending you a big thank you. Because of the Jan and Feb challenges, I finished four 2 signature journals!! Last night I put on the dangles. They need closures 🤣and toppers. I might wait on the toppers until I know who they are going to. I seriously do not think I would have done 4 pretty much mass make without those challenges. I had tons of ephemera and needed to use it up. Hope you are having a good week and your injury is healing.😘

Great inspiration to keep things simple! I made one up while I was watching. Fortunately, I had to go out for a couple of hours, so my clips held the fabric down til the glue went off. Mine's a pillowcase too. There's enough to make several journals and notebook covers. Thanks Justine!

[@houseofmahalo]

Oh brilliant!! I'm so pleased you made some. I don't do complicated lol... or at least I try not to 😅🙈

[@InkyBeeJournalsEphemera-kg24]

I love your choice of fabrics and papers so pretty! 😍I have a bunch of those bubble mailers to work on in my stash Ive covered one small one in scented draw liner paper I had stashed away and printed some co-ordinating digital papers to make a signature then added some embellishments turned out nice so more on the way! 💜

[@houseofmahalo]

Ooh yay!! Exciting!! 🤩💖 I always love the thrill of starting a new project 💖💖

[@phyllispeterson5800]

Actually I love making to covers the best. The decorating slows me down too much. I have a dozen journals ready for pages to be decorated.

[@houseofmahalo]

I'm with you on the decorating! That slows me down too... I'm always doubting whether I've added enough or whether I've got overboard lol 😅

[@anitabarker3125]

This was a great video using material to cover journals. I surprise what you use to make the journal,I would never have thought to use such material.

[@houseofmahalo]

Thank you Anita!! 🥰🥰 Oh yes, almost anything can be a cover... I love finding new uses for things 💖💖

[@denisewagner764]

Enjoyed watching this. I am gearing up to make a Clue journal. I am looking forward to the fun and mystery of it. Do you have an instragram?

[@houseofmahalo]

Aww, thank you Denise - I'm glad to hear it 🤩 Ooh, that sounds like fun! I do have Instagram (my username is houseofmahalo) but I don't use it much. I got fed up of them only showing my photos to like 20 people lol. I share more on my Facebook page now xoxo
