Paper Pad Project - TN Tall Pockets

[@BDTStudio]

I am a new viewer, and totally new to the idea of junk journals. I spent Labor Day weekend binge-watching your channel. It started out as research on what could be done with old books that have no face value (trying to convince a friend to save some books from the landfill). I had some vague notion that crafters do something with old books and might want these. Just a few videos in, I found myself thinking “I want to do this myself!” and down the rabbit hole I went. 🐰 My storage hut now holds several boxes of encyclopedias, dictionaries and bound legislative records. Now I am wanting All The Things, lol. Last night I was dreaming about glueing little bits together; I guess I am hooked. Enjoying your laid-back teaching style.

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Welcome to my channel, Barb! I’m so glad you’re here! And welcome to the rabbit hole too! Lol! ❤️

[@fernanton8370]

Hi Gayle, I really like the large pockets. The lace is very pretty. I admire you for keeping all the scraps. Before I started watching your channel I threw all my scraps in the garbage. 🌸💕🌸

[@robinpowell2712]

I plan to try these. How fun! Thank you for sharing. They look great.

[@helenascott389]

[@chrislerma6635]

Love the tall pockets. I made one today for a journal I'm working on. So quick & easy. I'll be making many more of these.

[@beckyreynolds273]

Love your videos. I kind of like watching the inking. Somewhat mesmerizing! Thanks for doing these. So inspiring.

[@debk1915]

Really pretty pockets! Love the laces!

[@77sparkles77]

Great tutorial, Gayle! Excited to get started with my TN projects. I agree with your choice of lace on the last TN. Surprised that you couldn't hear me over the internet waves, "That's it!! That lace is PERfect!" LOL Cheers.

[@MonicaGarciadivinelight]

These pockets are super cute!

[@IngrassiaJoanne]

I love how you keep every scrap!! I do that, too. It's so hard to throw anything out, as it sparks creative ideas no matter how small. I love these long pockets, too. I'm going to make some for my next journal!

[@gawieber]

They are all beautiful.

[@donnahunter3488]

Loving the tall pockets! I’m going to have to try those. They do look like fun! ❤️❤️❤️

[@anitawelch5355]

I love when you do an assembly line it's easier to learn.

[@adriawilliams8879]

OMG! You always come up with the greatest ideas! Can't wait to get started!

[@blossomandinspire]

Love these. Thanks for another fun crafting hour ❤️

[@travelingmntngal7963]

Hi Gayle! I was thrilled to get my Bird Waltz paper and stamp today, as I see a few others on here did as well! I had thought it was going to be another week or more, but there it was on my porch when I got home from school. Oh, and it's so pretty!! Not sure what I'm gonna do with it, but can hardly wait to use it and see how it all turns out. LOL Yup, just put me in a craft haven nursing home! LOL My grandmother and a few aunts have had Alzheimer's and so, yup, a bit of a worry for me as I have found myself getting more forgetful. Even more so than my mother, who has always had a fairly good memory. She's in her 80s now and does those word search puzzles all the time. I'm thinking they must help. Ooooo, I will have to try that tip for the glue. I like volcanoes, but not coming out of glue bottles. And there are gushers all the time. Ewwww... Such a pretty pocket you just made. And oh, what a pretty border punch. And as far as dust bunnies on border punches go... Ummmm.... I'm not standing here whistling a tune and acting like it doesn't happen to me. It does, but since I've started crafting JJ items, I've been able to clean them off a little more. Yes, you may toss those two pieces. Although...? LOL Gayle, you can do whatever you want. LOL I just love how you talk to us like we are right there with you! You do that and I'm gonna just chat right alone with you. It really does feel like we are right in the same room together, crafting and chatting away. I just love it! Oh, I really like the lacey pocket you just made. And, the one pocket, the lace you choose; I was saying, yeah, pick that one. I'm so glad you did. It really made that a really pretty pocket. All the pockets are just lovely & really compliment the journals so well. You always do such nice work. Well, until next time, my friend. Have a good rest of your day or evening. God Bless. Sue H.

[@marilynnekennedy4759]

I love watching your videos. Great fun and great ideas... and I’m happy I found a USA person. I love the UK ones as well, but it’s nice to know there is a place for JJ in the market place... I’m just starting out, making mine from Manila envelopes, soon I will move on to the bigger ones with spines etc. thank you for your channel...

[@carollaws838]

loved watching this video, they would be fab in the middle of a signature. I like how you decoRATED EACH ONE DIFFERENTLY :)

[@theresasuttle711]

Thanks for the video! I’m glad you included what you usually put in them!! I was trying to decide what would be good! Thank you for sharing!

[@artzology]

Your tall pockets are so pretty! Great tutorial! tfs

[@michelledekker7654]

This paper thou.....uuugh I need that in life! Super cute pockets.

[@swenstrand]

Another pocket style to add to my journals. Thank you Gayle!

[@lynnsinclair123]

Love how they all came together!

[@melissakinnear828]

So glad you revived the tall pockets, those are fun! I wonder since you have the pinhole in your Fabri Tac bottle, could you turn it on it's side? The glue wouldn't have so far to travel. 😉🤗

[@claudialatinette5318]

Beautiful!!! That paper is so pretty.

[@JeanetteHouse]

They all look so good and I really love this paper pad, Gayle, it’s so pretty. I got the “Herbarium” pad from this company and I believe they have an angel policy for their products, which is great. 😊xx

[@patbrez3079]

Made this pockets a few days ago, just have to decorate. Love your ideas. 🌻🌻🌻

[@nancykirk8913]

Ohhhh, such pretty tall pockets. thanks for the lesson!!!! Wish I could find that paper pad, but, no such luck!!! I found it on one site only and it was for an exorbitant price!!!! Hugs and XOXOXO

[@Jenny-W1910]

oh these are coming along great gayle! i can see how a score board really helps for projects like this, might need to get one. so the jury is still out on the Fabritac trick eh? hmmm, i'll try it when i get a new bottle, and also the tip to smear a little vaseline and/or chapstick on the tip to prevent the spider webs.... ahhh those teeny-tiny bits! lol. i'm the same way-so hard to toss em, but i'm getting better at it 👍 tfs friend 💕

[@beachngypsy746]

these are fantastic, I love them! thanks so much for sharing

[@candlekaren9]

I found a pad by Crafters consortium but not the one u are using, couldn't find ...but found the one called Bloom Beautiful, and I like it and I got it really discounted from JoAnn fabrics!!! Was thrilled! Stocking up for when I am allowed to use this bum shoulder again haha! Thanks for sharing with us. Wishing that I could find Jen's new creation, when it's available in her shop again I'll try to get it . So far I cannot find it....should have pre ordered. ! Have a blessed day Gayle!

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Hi Karen! Go to www.etsy.com/shop/LotsofBubbles4Me. They have Bird Waltz papers! ❤️

[@katrinanorris9690]

Lovely as always

[@debbiedowning2732]

I always learn something. Thanks

[@fernanton8370]

Hello Gayle , love 💕 the pockets . Very pretty . Thank you for sharing this . Great video. 😍

[@lindanagle3796]

Good morning Gayle. Just got my "Bird Waltz" paper and I keep looking and looking at this paper and I have to keep telling myself that I bought it to use in projects. Almost to gorgeous to cut. Lol loving these pockets. Thanks for another informative tutorial. Hugs ❤

[@tinlizzie4444]

Love your tall pockets!! They are really pretty!! TFS Gayle!! Hugs, Liz:)

[@SammiJarrad]

You heard me! They look awesome! I made a few last week. Tall pockets are fun. Hugs! 😁💜👍🏻

[@karensumner3772]

THESE ARE VERY PRETTY GAYLE-LOVE YOUR VIDEOS-TFS-HUGS/BLESSINGS

[@lalagamma4452]

Pockets are absolutely Devine!! You know if you take all those little pieces and put them aside would be good to go into they're happy now or along with stuff you're selling people love to get other people's paper. Just ai thought. TFS ❣️🍂🍁🍂

[@justjudycrafting7401]

I just love these. Going to do some for my journals.

[@lorraynesmith6302]

Love these!

[@charlottemarek3045]

I bought some 6x9 envelopes to attach to the inside covers of my birthday journals but the envelopes are a hair too wide. Thanks for the timely tutorial on tall pockets!

[@bettyswinford5886]

My mom had it so I feel for anyone going through it.Thank you for sharing.You talked about the cold,what state do you live in? I am in North Georgia in the summer and Florida in the winter.

[@jetwasik1648]

Loved this video!

[@rosiegarcia7664]

Another awesome video !!

[@annettedepete4314]

Really enjoyed this video. Thanks for sharing 😍🌴

[@NowTheresaCraftyIdea]

They turned out great x

[@annforsman]

the punch and lace looks great. have you tried to punch both sides and then lace down center? I am sure you did.

[@carolynchatham6338]

That pad is almost gone woohoo! And you even used some of the trims Candie and I sent in happy mail. But best of all you make me laugh!!

[@creativespacejeannie279]

Just had a great idea 💡 Your tall pockets would be wonderful sewn in the center of the signature...I’m trying it ASAP Love inspiration happy happy happy. Hugs

[@artycraftydabbles]

Hi Gayle, you mentioned about putting a hole in the top of the glue, doesn’t it dry out quicker? The lace down the middle reminded me of a shirt front, lol. The paper really is gorgeous. Sue💜

[@610WIL]

The hole is punctured through the top lining only. The lid is still intact :)

[@artycraftydabbles]

@@610WIL Ahhh thanks

[@marysternick5619]

Ohhh...what if you did the edge punch down both sides of the paper strip to make a faux lace trim? Loved this video as always!

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Yes! I have done that and it’s so pretty! I’m so addicted to real lace, I sort of got off my own path and on to real lace. Lol! ❤️

[@elizabethnicholas1939]

Hi Gayle, I just love that paper pad but I’ve only seen it for sale at over $73 😳 here in Australia. Oh, well something to give some thought to, and if I’m still interested in about a month then I’ll get it. I put everything on delay now otherwise I fall in the trap of buying things on impulse. Oh and by the way I could watch “The Bumbling Crafter”, distress the edges ALL DAY! Who, out of any of us, couldn’t use a good daily giggle! What a wonderful gift to give the world. ❤️❤️❤️

[@annieliz1965]

Phooeey - I thought we were overcharged in the UK. It's about £20 here so I didn't buy it....yet!

[@vivianwebb7670]

You were driving me crazy with the lace decision.

[@gailwoods7908]

I am a new viewer and I love this whole idea just wondering what you would sell a medium size journal for

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Hi Gail! If you’ll contact me on my Etsy with your question, that is where I conduct all the “business”. Thanks! 😁❤️

[@sandraeilenstine287]

The tall pockets would make great belly bands too. PS Tommy the bunny sends a hippity hop hello🐇

[@lindasmith253]

Watching this have noticed you used single ring binder clips, I have checked out all the usual sites to find these. I did find the one with three but would love to use some for tag flip folders, can you help please

[@crafterdeidra]

I'm a new subscriber of your channel from Barbara at 49Dragonflies. I'm just getting into junk journaling. Great tutorial. Thanks for sharing with us!

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Welcome to my channel! I’m so glad you’re here! ❤️

[@marthamanigross]

Don’t take the paper off the inside of the cap on the Fabri Tac. Just poke a bit bigger hole. Open the cap and do it from the inside. It really does help. :-). Love what you’ve done. Hugs.

[@NancysFanciesDesign]

I thought of that, and maybe also add a little "breathing" hole beside the larger one to help the glue come out (like when we use to use "church keys" to open cans!)

[@lauragaudry3402]

Fantastic! Made one along with you. 😃. PS. If you need it you have my permission to throw out tiny gluey scraps. 😂🤣

[@suemeteer1499]

Very cool!

[@tfntexas]

Really pretty pockets and I agree, that glue not coming out when I call it would drive me crazy...there are some that would say “it’s a short drive”....🙂

[@BlaizC]

I had memory loss last year (they diagnosed "stress amnesia" because my building had been jackhammering in the courtyard right outside my window for over 3 weeks), and the doctor did tell me that if you remember something eventually, even if it's hours later, you're okay. We also talked about how, when crafting or doing anything artistic, you can easily access some things but not others. For instance, you can craft and talk about your kids and what's happened recently because those are memories, but it's difficult to think of a phrase like "assembly line" because it's something different and you don't use the phrase often.

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Thanks Blaiz! That makes me feel better! ❤️

[@cindyvinson722]

Hi Gayle!! Love these pockets... and that paper? Where did you find it?? I’ve googled it but it’s hard to find!

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

I’ve heard this particular pattern is sold out, but there are other Hackney & Co. designs on Etsy if you search them. 😁❤️

[@planasyouwish2064]

They are coming along really good and cute. I just lost my dad June 2nd from dementia and it’s awful I agree

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

So sorry for your loss, my dear. ❤️

[@planasyouwish2064]

Thanks Gayle I’m sorry about your dad too.

[@marilyntorsch3970]

Your pockets are coming along very nicely. I love the lace down the center. You are so creative. Thank you for sharing 🤗

[@craftydawk.janettedawkins7516]

C😂😂😂😂😂how does that glass mat go .....gulook gulook gulook 😂😂you crack me up 😘

[@marymenke3940]

What is the name of the round punch? I am new and need to buy one. Thanks

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

It’s a Fiskars punch that I purchased at Joanns. ❤️

[@jbeaudi]

These pockets are pretty, a lovely place to hide a folded piece of coffee dyed paper!

[@iamwhatiam4075]

Pretty pockets. :) tyfs!

[@lynnecoleman1135]

your heart heard us. good choice!

[@vivienneparfitt2002]

HI Gayle love all your projects my dad had Alzheimer so I know how you feel best wishes Vivienne from Tasmania x

[@williamhawthorne1375]

Very nice project xxLizzie

[@beccacarrillo]

Just a silly question as I wake up this morning and start checking out videos to watch today (yours is first!): do KZbinrs have particularly short arms...or is there a special set of shirts just for you guys that are made to extend way over your wrists? :D (I know it's silly...but every time I see a video where the maker is wearing long sleeves...they are so long! Is this a fashion statement I'm missing out on?) P.S. I LOVE the color of your shirt! ** I wrote this before I heard your own comment about your long sleeves today. ;)

[@papercraftingirl]

Cute! tfs!

[@janetmckenney8376]

Assembly Line production - that's what you were looking for, I believe.

[@helenevans8559]

Hello my crafty friend, hope you have a great day xx

[@cheryl2455]

Nice!

[@bettyswinford5886]

A piece of was paper over the glue on lace let’s you push the lace into the glue.

[@JamieLOVEUMOREJOURNALS]

Making progress!

[@JamieLOVEUMOREJOURNALS]

I think you maybe forgot you were using a scrap on each one...
