random things you can put in your journal

I love collecting random things to put in my journal. There is absolutely NOTHING that you can't put in your journal if it pleases you. Think outside the box to come up with unique items to add.

I love that you are taking the time to play and take a break. Funny thing, I am doing the same thing right this minute from work. It is good to just take some time for ourselves and play without an agenda! Oh my goodness! That chicken and baby is adorable! I love your memory journal. It is lots of fun!

[@shawcraft1]

@laurieharris8569 thank you so much ☺️ sometimes, we forget to give ourselves permission to play. We should do that so much more often because it's good for the soul! I LOVE my little chicken and chick! It's so stinkin cute!

[@rachelphelps6347]

Glad you took a break. I love that chicken with the baby inside. Just adorable! I like putting all that memory stuff in journals. It turned out great!! ❤❤

[@shawcraft1]

@rachelphelps6347 thank you, Rachel. Isn't that chicken just the cutest thing ever 😍. I had so much fun creating this spread

[@sandiecole3274]

Diane, your nails a so beautiful. That's a great color, reminds me of green M&M's, yum. This is such a cute journal, and your right, it's yours and you can do as you please. Love & Big Hugs Sandie ❤

[@shawcraft1]

@@sandiecole3274 thank you! I had them done this color for Mom's funeral service because green is the color for life, so I did it as a celebration of her life. I really like the color too. I love how these pages turned out. I'm excited to finish this journal and start another!

[@tinaepp6337]

I love how you organized everything, it is absolutely gorgeous!

[@shawcraft1]

@tinaepp6337 thank you, Tina. This was therapeutic for me and I so enjoyed it ☺️

[@kimbokat4887]

So sorry for your loss. I lost my mom recently too, after years caring for her and 16 months in hospice. The probate stuff is daunting! Thank you for sharing your play session. I need some play time too and your ideas are inspiring.

[@shawcraft1]

@@kimbokat4887 I am so sorry for your loss. The hardest thing is to lose your Mom. That in itself is awful. Dealing with the probate stuff is very daunting. I wish nobody EVER had to go through that! I hope you get some good play time, and I pray it's healing for you. Big hugs

Your journal is so cute, so full of beautiful treasures and memories ❤

[@shawcraft1]

@Barb6809 thank you 😊 I love the way it looks with all the unusual things added

[@LauraStillLearning]

First let me offer condolences for the loss in your family. I know what you are going through. My brother passed away the end of May after being in my home on Hospice for about two months. There is a lot to tend to afterwards. But moving on. I really enjoy your videos and your being a southern girl like me, with your soft accent, makes it especially enjoyable. I had to write you when you pulled out those candy wrappers because I have a stash of those same ones and just used them in Margarete Millers Collage Challenge 24! I spent most of yesterday in my craft room sorting and throwing out, which was not my plan. So today, I'm just going to play! Thank you for the reminder.

[@shawcraft1]

@LauraStillLearning Thank you so much, sweet friend. I'm so sorry for the loss of your brother. My condolences for you and your family. Oh! That's so funny that you've used the same wrappers. I love that so much. I hope you have so much fun playing in your journal and I pray that it's very healing for you during your time of grief. I am here if you need anything at all darlin.

[@crafterdeidra]

Sorry for your families loss! Hugs my friend ❤ That crocheted chicken and chick is adorable. Great journal session as always!

[@LauraStillLearning]

No! You are called LaLa too! Its my grandma name from my Alabama gkids (The Florida ones call me Grandma...go figure.) And the Cicada wings! I kept waiting for the "hoard" to hit here, but they never did, so I happily settled for the "Normal Summer Cicada sound" from my backyard trees. You are so clever. OK, I promise I'll try to refrain from hogging the comments!

[@shawcraft1]

@@LauraStillLearning Haha! I love that so much. Lala is a great grand name! I just started really hearing the cicadas here this week. We didn't get the hoard of em either. Don't hold back on the comments at all! I love them!

[@JournalDreamworld]

Trinity needs to make and sell those on Etsy! So stinkin cute. I would put the cicada wings in a specimen slide. I loved them too. Great minds think alike. I always put random things in my own journal. Like dr bracelets, all my cards I get, ideas, etc. its fun!! You know I have always loved your journals. They are so creative and you can feel the love when you hold one cause I know! God has you and I too miss Gracies little face. When you get to Heaven shes gonna come running and say move over Jesus thats my mama. She will be well. I have family and several waiting on me. Dr says im doing great for my age. I turned 71 in july. I attached a pic of my birthday shirt I got myself. Love you very Big! ❤❤❤

[@shawcraft1]

She is trying, but she's struggling to learn Etsy. I'm helping her, but she's almost decided to just sell them locally because it's less of a hassle for her. Yes! I may eventually put them in a slide, I just didn't have time to do it this day. Aww, thank you for saying that ... I miss her so much and I'm excited to see her again. I have many waiting on me there too. I'm so glad you got a good bill of health from your doc ... take good care of you, my friend ... you're kinda important .😉❤️
