Putting together a Junk Journal

[@peggysmith1582]

It is so nice to see someone using colorful pages to make a journal!

[@amazingpinkcherryblossom.3191]

Thank you for showing me exactly how to put a junk journal together!!! It’s usually videos that show half way through the process and that made me feel very overwhelmed after watching. Now, I am feeling better instantly and I am able to show others!! Thank you!!!! 🇦🇺

[@LolaRyck]

These will be gorgeous on a bookshelf when they’re done. I love the whole thing.

[@katjawoell]

Thank you so much! Your video is very helpful for me!! Greetings from Germany 👋🐞☘🌼

[@alamgirhossain894]

[@theresacurrin6395]

Video well done. Great information and camera angle. Thanks for sharing 💗

[@solymar8857]

El primer video en el q veo cómo se montan las hojas interiores. Gracias!!!

[@delorespurchase-russell5195]

Thank you for your tutorial! I have found that my eye for junk journals run towards using scrapbook paper, magazines, craft paper etc.

[@karenborden6032]

I am a total beginner but love the idea of saving old books to reuse as a journal. Please do a full video of your process & include list of materials that you use and find helpful.

[@aliceadler4569]

[@ladyinblack1964]

Thank you for demonstrating how you sew the signatures in. I have made some journals in the past, but found that part intimidating and got my husband to do it! He uses six stitches!

[@foxhousecreations4869]

You do a very good job with your journals!

[@CAT-Anne]

I really like this journal book you made! I have yet to try this type of making from an old book.

[@Wintertyme1976]

Thank you for your help. I love the way you have explained the way you use the binding with strings. I cannot sew either and I have been searching for a tutorial I can do. I enjoyed your tutorial and I am so greatful for you sharing your talent. God Bless You:)

[@brandiduff811]

Just came across your videos and will be watching more. I'm with you about liking bright colors instead of tea stained paper. I have made some paper with dilute Bombay inks and today I made hibiscus tea stained paper - that was absolutely beautiful! Will have to try with watercolors because I love it and have lots :)

[@1888starz]

Your fresh approach on how to 'put together a JJ' was very easy to follow through the process. I love using waxed linen thread especially if using a hard cover book. Thanks for sharing!

[@ChrissiMannix]

1888starz that’s Aweosme!! Thanks for commenting! I’m really happy to hear it was easy to follow the process. Thankyou :)

[@janicecass2713]

Love how simple u make it look, I suspect its not that simple, but yur video has brokon the process dwn, so even I think I could do this. Inspiring. I luv how it's not done with fancy cut out dies, it's lovely and simple and unique a lot of the fancy ones all look the same. Thank u luv this. X

[@ChrissiMannix]

Janis Cass you are very welcome!! I love To hear that! And honestly, it pretty much is that simple. You can totally do it! Once you make one and figure out what works best for you, you will be addicted and have no problem making them!

[@hennahaavisto]

Thank you for showing the idea of hiding thread ends in an envelope!

[@chitownchica]

Awesome, and I was totally able to follow along to make my own!

[@iHanna]

I'm not much for tea dying either, I love me some colors! 💚 🧡💛💚❤💖💙💜🤎

[@tammyscreativecardsandcrafts]

Awesome journal tfs 🥰💕

[@chariots8x230]

I like it! Do you have any tips on how to fill up the interior of a junk journal? Everyone makes videos on how to put together and design the exterior of a junk journal, but I’m interested in some ideas on what to put inside the junk journal. I’d like to learn different ways to design the interior because I’m unsure about what to put in it.

[@randomgirel8258]

I loved this! So easy to understand each part; your descriptions are perfect. Thank you!

[@simonettagenova]

@@ChrissiMannix you used the right word, addictive!!!💟

[@maritzamachuca4251]

please show how / what you choose for your signature

[@ADayInLisasLife3947]

Do you ever put a label on the spine with the dates that are covered inside? It seems it would be easier to keep them in order, help find things you journal, and look nice, too, layered on the colored background.

[@ChrissiMannix]

that is a fantstic idea!

[@dudelessranch802]

I watched a video where the book maker used a long reach cropadile to create the holes for stitching.

[@CIRTerri]

thanks for sharing

[@henrietta9206]

Beautiful! Tfs!

[@shellmo2863]

I notice you had the text pages but they were taped in...curious about learning more about how you do that exactly. Would love to see the signature details too. Thanks

[@ChrissiMannix]

ShellMO hi!! Well You have picked a great time to stop by then. I actually have a new junk journal Video comming up probably next week. I made one not too long ago as a present for someone. Just waiting on them to receive it and then I’ll be posting the video, so keep an eye out.

[@shellmo2863]

I didn't even look at the date - LOL. Gonna be browsing your other videos.

[@dr.amyanna9235]

YOU ROCK! STUNNIING! Please do the video!😊👍🌹💯‼️I know I am late but if you did another video to follow this?

[@tamrastroud3424]

I would love to know where you get your paper from! Also, I would love to see how you pick what goes on each page. I probably missed it in another video, but do you have any journals with prompts in it?
