Yes, it's now 2021. I was looking everywhere for a tutorial on how to incorporate a twig in my journal. Your video is so clear and easy to follow. I'm grateful. Thank you.

[@kristilebruska3826]

You are amazing! I L-O-V-E loved this video! I wanted to make one right away and took the supplies to a creative circle group I meet with. We all had so much fun! The sizes and ideas and the way they embellished were all different, so I taught a couple more people and each one turns out so unique! I've now done them in the small size like you did and taller ones with just one signature and the twig on top like a notebook, one of my friends made one last night with different sizes of pages - more like a junk journal. I have also started making cards and putting twigs on the cards. Thank you so much for this wonderful idea and inspiration!!

[@CaterinaGiglio]

Hi Kristi! This is so very nice to hear. I love knowing that people share my techniques and I want them to make them their own. Thanks so much for letting me know that you liked it and are enjoying the twigs! Its so fun to work with organic pieces and incorporating them in our work! x

[@winterlude100]

What a cute idea, and very timely since I'm making a forest themed journal for my friend's birthday! I think I'll just tuck a thin one in one of the pockets... really love this project!

[@CaterinaGiglio]

[@carolrigby186]

I love the idea of the twigs. I like to make gelli plate prints using leaves. They would be great together in a miniature book. Thanks for sharing Cat. ❤

[@CaterinaGiglio]

Carol Rigby Hi Carol, yes, I was thinking all my eco friends would love this technique for their pages too! Have fun with it! Thank you for watching and letting me know you enjoyed it! It’s always nice to hear from you! 😘❤️

[@janicerobinson5286]

Hi dear Cat ! I found this video in my Watch Later stash and thought how cool...I’m presently making a paper sculpture with twigs !! When I get done I’ll post it to IG . This was a fun video to watch while I ate my Thai take-out meal. We can't eat in the restaurant yet due to COVID-19. Have fun on your vacation! xo 💕. 🌿🌸🍃

[@CaterinaGiglio]

Janice Robinson Hi Janice! We haven’t eaten out in months.. I miss it so much! Enjoy your Thai food! This is a fun little book, glad you liked the vid! Always so fun to hear from you, dearheart🌸💗🌸🌱🍃

[@janicerobinson5286]

Caterina Giglio. Oops...sorry no take-out for you two. I remember you live out in the “twigs” but was hoping the rules had let up. Chat later. 😘. 🌿🌸🍃

[@carolreed8814]

Thank you. I am finally catching up on your videos..Your approach to fabric embellishment is truly exciting....and beautiful!

[@carolreed8814]

Perhaps "embellish" is the wrong word. Each page, textile, becomes a new canvas to you, You are truly painting and drawing with unorthodox tools. This is amazing. Thank you for sharing.

[@sharongruener6078]

@@CaterinaGiglio No, your art, the many pieces of paper, collage type, some curled, like a frame around say a picture or item. Hope that explains better????? Like what you have sold in the gallery.

[@shirleymccullough2515]

Still trying to watch all your KZbins and found this adorable twig book and oh … I absolutely love it 💖💖💖! You refer to the paper on the covers as wrapping paper, it’s quite heavy for wrapping paper or it’s a special brand cause my wrapping paper isn’t that quality .Sure want to make a few few of this, better get some twigs drying 😊

[@CaterinaGiglio]

Shirley McCullough I have lots of different kinds of wrapping papers, this a paper that I purchased years ago in a roll and it is very heavy. Have fun making these books! 😘Thanks for watching, Shirley! ❣️
