[@stephaniemurria5534]

Excellent. I'm old school and haven't used digitals, but yours look beautiful. I'm thinking of moving into the 21st century with you. Thanks for sharing. 😊

[@myporchprints-junkjournalt5340]

Thank you so much! Digitals can make a really fun addition to a journal when mixed with true vintage ephemera, so we hope you give them a shot! Thanks for watching! 🤍

[@hollydatsopoulos7998]

I am a newbie too! But, I can honestly say, her digitals are all gorgeous, and they make it really easy to print everything you need! I say go for it, and have fun! 😊

[@memorykeepersarchive3953]

Oh wow..!! The brad method looks so much easier than binding in the signatures. Awesome idea, thank you ❤.

[@sherryvanderpool8644]

Great video I've never seen the Brad method before must try ❤

[@myporchprints-junkjournalt5340]

Please do! 🤍I've got several journals now I have made with them on this channel, and it really is solid!

[@camillekillam9949]

Really enjoyed this video, and I must say that you have a beautiful speaking voice. It's very soothing.

[@myporchprints-junkjournalt5340]

Aw, thank you! That's so nice to hear! 🤍 Boosts my confidence a little haha

[@elisebb3765]

I love this journal! It has just the right amount of ephemera and writing space for my personal taste! I've made several mini albums, but just getting into "junk journals." I have bought several of your kits already and anxiously waiting to get a better printer so that I can start printing and making some of them! They make beautiful gifts, and of course, keep some for myself!! ❤

[@nightangel0515]

Beautiful journal! Love the idea of using brads. I have never thought of that - so thanks for that idea. Love how you decorated the spine. Love this!

[@myporchprints-junkjournalt5340]

Thank you! I was actually a little unsure if people would like this journal, so I'm so relieved to hear you do! 🤍The last few journals I've done were all brad-bound, so feel free to check those out if you are looking for more ways to decorate a brad-bound spine!

[@ramonakearns2101]

Great tutorial, I am new to junk journals. I'm using old calendars, scrap paper, old greeting cards. My dilemma is what type of glue to use without having my pieces buckle.

[@myporchprints-junkjournalt5340]

How fun! Fabri-Tac is what we use for glue (link in description box, under our Amazon Affiliate link). It's non-water based so papers don't wrinkle, and it works well for fabric and even metal too. It dries fast, but not too fast. It's a bit pricey, but worth it if you have the spare change!

[@shulaney4639]

This is the first time I've ever seen brads being used as signature attachments. What a great look!!!

[@blackcoffeeandwildflowers]

So beautiful! And what a great tutorial. I absolutely love tired idea of the brads as binding. I haven’t done it yet, but I definitely will with my next journal. It’s such a genius idea! Thanks you for this beautiful inspiration! ( And I really appreciate you leaving in the oops, it really does help!). Hugs ❤️🤗

[@meekybow7199]

This was the best tutorial! Thank you so much!

[@flamingogirl57]

Oh wow ! I've made lots of journals ,but I always learn something from you ! I have to try the brad binding method ! I love the fact that you showed all the "oopsie daisy" moments. I just happen to be working, playing, with a journal for my Granddaughter so I'm going to shake things up ! 😂😊❤ Thank you so much Kiera !❤

[@rhondadorst3553]

This was such a great video. I'm saving this one. Thank you for sharing your wisdom ❤ I love Porch Prints!

[@myporchprints-junkjournalt5340]

Aw, thank you so much! I'm glad you liked it!🤍

[@DevonLass]

I love your brad binding method! I have tried it out on the latest journal I made and it is fantastic! 🥰💖

[@myporchprints-junkjournalt5340]

Yay! I'm so glad someone else tried it! It really is becoming my go-to. It's just so simple, sturdy and versatile. I should probably try some new ideas, but I'm having trouble letting go haha

[@DevonLass]

@@myporchprints-junkjournalt5340 Embrace your idea! Run with it! Your fans will follow… 🤣❤️

[@tinlizzie4444]

[@myporchprints-junkjournalt5340]

Thanks so much Liz! I'm so glad you enjoyed it! 🤍

[@terryt.1643]

I’m making a journal for my Grandniece’s birthday. I’ll tuck lots of ephemera, decorating bits and bobs into pockets so she can make it her own. I love using the brads so she can replace signatures.

[@sonagray3176]

GORGeous Junk Journal! Excellent vid for a newbie to making a JJ…will definitely use brads! I’m excited to use your techniques & suggestions for embellishments.

[@user-ik4pk1bd3k]

First video i have found that I really got the most information from. Thank you

[@myporchprints-junkjournalt5340]

Of course! Glad it was helpful!

[@LuvsSno]

That's a really neat Journal I love all the pink and what you've done to the spine the spine, BUT I don't see the link for the cream bows?

[@myporchprints-junkjournalt5340]

Hello! In the description box if you click on the Amazon shop link, it will come up with several group lists, including one at the top called "Junk Journal Supplies". If you click on it and scroll down it should say "see more supplies" at the bottom. This should reveal all the items including the bows. You can also find it in the list of junk journal supplies on our blog (also linked in description box), near the bottom of page is a long list which has the satin bows on it. Hope this helps!

[@sandracreatesstudio]

Brilliant, this will definitely be on my TO DO list

[@joycedemolle4565]

Such a pretty journal. Very nice work. ❤❤

[@rochestermanagementservice6082]

Excellent tutorial, Kiera. I'm not a newbie at this, but I always get new tips or tricks when I watch a tutorial, and yours was no exception. You've kept it really simple, AND you kept the mistakes in, showing how to remedy the situations. We all make mistakes it seems, newbies need to know that. Thank you, as well, for the many lovely kits and ephemera you offer at MPP. I use them in a variety of projects. Hope your thumb is better soon. I winced for you every time you used it. 🥴 From Cheryl in AZ.

[@myporchprints-junkjournalt5340]

That's so kind, Cheryl! Thank you!

[@Sashapoo]

Lovely!

[@myporchprints-junkjournalt5340]

Thank you! Glad you had fun and felt like this was helpful!

[@SunriseCrocus]

Wow, so beautiful! Never seen it bound with brads before! Love learning something new!

[@TiaMarlier]

Thank you for this video, Kyra! Your approach is incredibly helpful for beginners (speaking for myself) and your attention to detail is really impressive - where you take a second to bring an item closer to the camera so everything is clearly seen as you explain each part of the process. Beautiful designs, easy-to-follow instructions, and great “situational awareness” of your viewer’s visual perspective! Appreciate your approachable, pleasant personality too.👏💖

[@myporchprints-junkjournalt5340]

This might be one of the kindest comments I have ever received! I'm so happy you enjoyed the tutorial and noticed the work put in. Thank you so very much! 🤍

[@69Sugah]

That journal turned out beautiful. The misaligning of the signatures wasn't even noticed. I was sewing my signatures in my signatures. I hadn't considered using brads. Brads come in a range of colors too.Thanks for that tip and sharing your videos.❤

[@myporchprints-junkjournalt5340]

Aw, thank you for watching! 🤍

[@brendagraw3729]

Lovely journal, excellent tutorial, love your calm voice. I have been making journals for many years and still found value and ideas in this video. The pink papers drew me in!

[@sandycopeland790]

Love this journal! Just beautiful! The way you made it was perfect…..just the kind I was looking for. Love how you put it together with brads too. So much simpler I think. I will definitely give it a try someday. Thank you for sharing. Cheers from Ontario Canada 🇨🇦

[@shalesdan]

Absolutely brilliant, you have given me lots of ideas...Thank you.

[@lynnrex9996]

Gorgeous! What an awesome video for us newbies! You make it seem doable and easy. Thanks!❤

[@maidenastryx4088]

Hi Kyra, I just have to say that I love you!! You crack me up and make my day when it's been rough. When you said you accidentally sprained your thumb but that its okay the crafting must go on😂😂, I was laughing so hard. It reminded me of when you took off a feather from a cat toy to use in your journal, I almost fell outta my chair when you said that 😂😂😂(in a different video)thank you for being you.! I love your videos, you do such a great job of explaining everything and I appreciate that so much. Anyways I'll stop rambling, but I wanted to stop by and leave a comment cuz I'm watching this video right now. Take care

[@christineskinner1706]

Wow such a lovely video. I wouldn't of thought to use paper clips to bind the signatures but it works great. Thanks so much for sharing ❤

[@edwardhandziak4219]

I love the way you did the brads for spine, I never seen that before, I am new to this and love all the help I can get, you make it look so easy, beautiful Judy

[@cathlinejohnson1856]

Where did you find the cute little wooden drawer/box that you keep your brads in? Or did you make it?

[@myporchprints-junkjournalt5340]

We actually have a tutorial on that if you are interested! I'll link it here for you: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qHbcaadvnbRrh9Usi=-aI9BdMHbEP5CuCg

[@trina7410]

I was wondering where you got those pretty little Scissors when you were decorating the front?

[@LuvsSno]

If we don't use fabric on the front cover, and the paer panels for the front and back aren't long enough to cover the spine.. what would we do with the spine area for coverage?

[@myporchprints-junkjournalt5340]

Hello! We have some tutorials showing how to cover journal covers with paper. You use two sheets flipped vertically and layered with one another. You can see it here at the 2:40 mark in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bJiod2eAeK6HppIsi=jYkcxoiizvDRRs3j Hope this helps!

[@geraldineleonard6212]

Thu 5/23/24 11..00 AM THANK YOU for sharing your knowledge! What about placing the tie ribbon all the way across? GEM

[@cindyallen1405]

How about a journal about the Florida Keys! Or the Everglades. Maybe lighthouses and fishing! I'm from the keys! 😎

[@LuvsSno]

What is the little copper color holder that you pushed the one inch punch decoration into & created a dangle with called..?cambishon is what it sounded like? You said it would be in the links, but I could not find it.. and no idea what category under your Amazon

[@cathlinejohnson1856]

Is it easier to attach the paper covers before or after the signatures are placed in? What is your preference?

[@myporchprints-junkjournalt5340]

I usually do the base of my covers first (fabric or paper), then bind in the signatures, and then decorate the cover. Since sometimes the binding method effects how I decorate the spine, and sometimes how I decorate the spine dictates how I decorate my cover. If that makes sense? But it really just depends on the journal. Sometimes I switch it up depending on what I am doing. I think for this journal you could do either/or.

[@rhondadorst3553]

Do y'all have a sunflower digi junk jurnal kit? I want to make my best friend a junk jurnal using this method. I couldn't find a sunflower jurnal kit in your etsy. Did I overlook it?

[@myporchprints-junkjournalt5340]

Hello! Here are are some kits featuring sunflowers, including the "Sunflower Journal Pages Kit" and the "Sunflowers & Daisies Ephemera Pack". www.etsy.com/shop/MyPorchPrints?search_query=sunflower Hope this helps!

[@Bruni-h8y]

How do you print the paper with different pattern on each side?

[@myporchprints-junkjournalt5340]

Hello! You just print whatever paper you want on one side, then flip the paper over and run it through the printer again printing whatever other paper you want on the other side. :) Hope this helps!

I don't have a computer. Do you know of someone who has kits already printed? Thanks.

[@gaylemunn1011]

Can it still be called a ‘junk journal’ if there is no ‘junk’ used?

[@myporchprints-junkjournalt5340]

It's a generally accepted term. 😉Even though it's not actually "junk" many of our kits are created from scans of old documents, etc.

[@coachwcherylb]

I am new and confused as I feel like using your kits makes the journal not my own and I thought junk journaling is using stuff I find around my house??

[@myporchprints-junkjournalt5340]

Hello! Making junk journals is simply a form of self expression. It's a very personal project, and there is no right or wrong way to do it, so you can choose to use or discard anything that makes your journal feel lovely and enjoyable to you. Some people use found items, some use digitals, some use a mix of both. Digitals don't make a journal any less personal or less beautiful. It's simply a material for journal creation like stickers, buttons, glue or fabric might be. Here is an article from our blog you might find helpful if you are new to junk journaling that goes a little more into detail on what a junk journal is and what you might use to make one: www.myporchprints.com/post/junk-journaling-a-z-glossary-of-terms Hope this helps answer your question!
