If you turn them on their side so holes are at the top then tie the how ,the bow will tie lengthways down . Looks prettier and also holes won't get snagged and torn. They are soo pretty .what a great idea .

[@gloriawagner9405]

Great idea Rachel

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much 😊

[@pampirtle6348]

Great project today as usual. Lifelong allergy sufferer so I totally understand. Sometimes sucking on really strong mints will help clear the sinus passages. I'm a retired teacher and used to use that trick. I was thinking you could also use very thin Ribbon or colored embroidery floss to tie the folios shut. I really loved book page folio also. I live in Northeastern Nevada where it's very difficult to obtain old book pages so when you use some of yours for glue pages my heart is sad. But I understand you have access to lots of them. I use old magazines or catalogs for my glue pages. Many years ago I was lucky enough to travel around Italy and see many of the beautiful as well as very old cities. You are very lucky to live where you do. Thank you for so many amazing videos that you share with us. God bless.

Love how your holders turned out and sure hope your allergies are better soon. It's not fun having allergies. Take care.♥️

[@roxycreations679]

Thanks so much 😊

[@jenniferleech8198]

Hi Rachel, I hope you are feeling better today. Sounds like a little of spring allergies. Ohio is the worst for allergies. Allergy medicine does help for me, I hope it works for you.

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much 😊

[@jeanburns7263]

Rachael, I understand completely about the sniffles. There is a very bad virus going around in the part of Michigan that I live. My husband, myself and my sons family have been ill with it for over 3 weeks. Take care of yourself, if it is this virus it starts out slow then when you think you may have fought it off it comes back with a vengeance. We’ve all tested and it isn’t the you know what. 😊 Love this project Jean

[@visualisednz]

You are a trooper, Rachel. I know it would have been so frustrating for you, but personally the sniffles, etc, didn't bother me. I just felt for you. Your makes were gorgeous, too.

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much!

[@tammymchenry3675]

My husband sneezes so loud it scares me and makes me jump. He doesn’t give me any warning. You do what you need to do to be comfortable. People need to get over themselves. You are doing us a favor by letting us watch you create. We appreciate all you to do. I learn so much from you. ❤❤❤❤

Super cute, as always! I love the tie idea and the non-staple closure. Sorry you are suffering from allergies. I'm using my allergy nose spray a lot this Spring. Small price to pay for the beauty of the season. Don't worry a bit about it bothering anyone, we all understand. ❤

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much 😊

[@janicestevens8469]

Hi Rachel! I’m sure everyone understands about allergies. It’s miserable. I’m in Texas and there’s so much dried grasses and blooming plants in the Spring, that everyone suffers. I take two allergy tablets every day and still sniffing, watering eyes, and stuffy head. Not fun at all but it didn’t stop you from making beautiful pieces, as always! ❤

[@hollylapinski3328]

I'm also in Texas!! My allergies are terrible in the spring. My coworker had to take so much medicine that he looked stoned and was encouraged to leave early. Not a great look when working in an alternate high school. 🙄🤦🏼‍♀️

Oh Rachel I did feel for you. I have asthma and sometimes I need to cough on camera. Sometimes things happen and we have to just go with the flow. I loved this idea I will definitely be giving this a try they turned out really sweet. Thank you for persevering. Xx

Hello Rachel, thank you for sharing this with us. You take care, hope you get through those nasty allergies. I have them and they really mess with me. Tough to do much of anything with watery eyes and runny nose, bless you for taking the time to do the video. This is a great idea of what to do with vellum.

[@sassyh154]

These are so cute and would be appreciated by anyone receiving them I am sure... thank you so much for sharing.. hoping you are feeling better soon... x

Those are cute, Rachel. I had to look up that stapeless stapler. Interesting. There are a couple of different styles. Added to my wish list. Creative Blessings!

[@dakielty]

Good morning, Rachel. I’ve been suffering from sniffles too, but i just had allergy testing and no allergies. Great news but apparently there’s a non allergy problem which i do have. So funny

[@JamieLOVEUMOREJOURNALS]

These are lots of fun! I have a horrible cold. It’s not the -you know what… it’s just a cold but it’s been miserable and I had to go to the pharmacy today and I wore a mask because I am coughing pretty bad and my nose is a mess. I was really shocked at how people treated me. I get it. I don’t want to give anyone my germs but I HAD to come get medicine to get better. I thought of you when I had an older woman approach me and tell me I had some nerve coming into public when I’m obviously sick. (I thought I’m having a Rachel post office bullying moment…) Haha ANYWAY. I hope you just had a few sneezes and your not coming down with anything or developing allergies. No sniffles or sneezing bothers me. It’s life.

Ugghhh...don't apologize for the allergies. Hope tomorrow is better. Here in south Louisiana it is almost a year long problem. Love this project today. Would be good to use as a gift card holder. Will give this a try!

[@cherishedmementos-buffyb.5749]

What a fun idea! I've seen acetate cards before, so I don't see why you couldn't use vellum for one. I think they would be pretty!💕

[@hollylapinski3328]

Great idea!! I love vellum! I hope your allergies get under control. I had a terrible attack a week or so ago and had to take a Benedryl. It helped immensely so I know it was allergy and not something else. The sneezing is crazy and it's always two hard sneezes for me. Not great fun, but I'm sure this project will be. ☺️💜 Thank you for all your hard work and your perseverance to bring us this video even with your allergy challenge.

One of the digital letters I have of yours looks as if they used some kind of stapleless stapler to seal the letter. It looks round with cross hatching. Who knew that they had something like that back then! My Dr told me that allergies can occur at any age. I now take Zyrtec and Flonase everyday 😢 I have found that it helps me to have the windows closed and use the air conditioner, especially in the spring. I hope you feel better soon. This is another cool project 😊thank you Rachel.

I have sneeze acts. Where I sneeze six or more times in a row. I blow my nose trying to stop the sneezing It mostly after I have eaten dinner. I thought it was what I was eating. But I kept track for what I ate including spices I cooked. I never found anything that causing them. I do sneeze other times too. I'm scared to go out to eat, fearing I will have my sneezing act. You can join the human race that sneeze alot. Ha ha. Big hug always.
