My son is on the autism spectrum- and I recently commented (and my comment was reposted) on JJJ chat group on facebook about how much he loves the glue book we made together!! I can not even tell you how much glue books, junk journals and art in general have changed him in the last year-- art therapy has so many benefits---and for him, it just works like a charm!!

[@brandythompson6544]

PS - I am already saving all my junk mail---because I anticipate him needing a new one soon!!

Thank you, Brandy, for sharing! I’ve already heard from a subbie that is working on finding outlets for her glue books for kiddos that will benefit from them! So cool!! Sending big hugs to you and your precious boy!! ❤️

Brandy Thompson my 5 year old great grand daughter is high functioning slightly autistic. She attends a regular kindergarten class. I plan to give her a glue journal with a washable glue stick. She loves books & games so I think she will enjoy it. She likes busy work.

[@snooziesuesue]

I'm fairly new to your channel but I'm already addicted to your wonderful, funny, spunky personality! I learn so much from you. Hoping someone can tell me the difference between a junk journal and a glue book.

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

I’m glad you’re here on my channel enjoying the crafting!! I have a playlist on my channel of glue book videos that I think will show you how I work in them. My junk journals, on the other hand, I primarily write in. Hope that helps and once again, welcome to my channel!! ❤️

Gayle...I loved 💓 this video and will come back and give you a like when I won’t be #666 😉! The fabrics you selected look awesome on each book cover! I’m wanting to find a hardback “Mike Mulligan and the Steam Shovel” and make a journal for my son the heavy equipment operator!

Thank you for doing these tutorials! Learning so much.

[@nancynorris9822]

What is a glue book? How do you use it? I really enjoy learning about junk journals! Thank you. 🤗

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Hi Nancy! I use my glue book to glue in pictures that inspire me or that I just like to look at. You can collage in it or just randomly glue down images. I think if you search Gayle Agostinelli Glue Book on YT, some videos of me working in my own glue book should come up. They might help by showing rather than explaining. 😁❤️

[@georgiewalker1069]

I love your fabrics. They match the covers so beautifully

[@dsovell]

[@katjordan3733]

There was a time when the very thought of gutting a book would have made me crazy. (I'm a writer.) Now I get it. Glue books and JJ's are a good way to use up stuff that would otherwise be trash. Thanks for helping me understand the recycling process can be beautiful too.

Oh no, Gayle, watching you do the pages gives me insight and inspiration!

[@billiejoethomason6075]

Questions about reinforcing book spines, do you ever use VyTec tape? Read or heard it was very strong for spines. It’s actually used for taping coldwrap for around the house use.

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

I’d never heard of it but interesting!! ❤️

[@sandyhearn8332]

My 58 year old brother with learning disabilities has lived with me for 10 years, I have tried to get him interested in hobbies to no avail. When I started doing gluebooks, I asked him if he would like to try gluebooks because I have been doing his scrapbooking for him and he saves EVERYTHING. So he came up with some car magazines full of classic cars, so far we have made 2 books together. He really enjoyed it. I think mostly that I am giving him a lot of attention.

[@billiejoethomason6075]

❤️ My great grand daughter is slightly autistic and loves books & games. She is 5 years old & I think I’ll try glue books for her with a craft glue stick, washable of course. Think she’ll enjoy it & will have calming effect.

[@Jana-TheCraftyGambler]

Gayle, Could you explain, how a glue book is to be used? How does it differ from a junk journal?

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

The way I use my glue book is that I glue in images, sayings, etc that inspire me. You can glue them in just to save or create collaged pages. I have several pages that are just washi tape glued down. They make such pretty patterns with you put them all together. After Christmas, I’ll have to have another session in my glue book so you can see me work in it. ❤️

[@Jana-TheCraftyGambler]

Thanks you, this looks like a good project t for my grand daughters to do. They will have a new baby brother this coming week. I’ll need some way to keep them busy. They will really like this.

[@jessjtadesigns]

Just love these glue books, I'm making one too! As one who has worked in a special educational system in past, yes books are an enormous help with many disabled people! Oh how we loved reading them to the kids I used to help. Calming effects are needed in brain development, what's better than books, glue books included! Thanks Gayle! You rock✂️💖👍

Love your videos ! You have taught me so much and in such a relaxing way. Can't wait to see those books finished. Could you please tell me the difference between FabriTac and FabriFix ...Thanks for sharing ...

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Hi Doris! There doesn’t seem to be a difference that I can tell. Hobby Lobby sells FabriFix and Joanns sells FabriTac. I think they are the same. They are made by the same company and everything. ❤️

[@sandymelton2759]

Hi Gayle! I looked on Amazon for the "KEEKO" book you are using.....holy cow $198.00! Thrift stores here I come

[@dnash6406]

Thank you for your videos. I find myself sucked into the process and forget what I was doing! If you want to know about rights of using the calendar or magazines or anything else you buy, it's called the First Sale Doctrine and official words from the U.S. Dept. of Justice are as follows: "The first sale doctrine, codified at 17 U.S.C. § 109, provides that an individual who knowingly purchases a copy of a copyrighted work from the copyright holder receives the right to sell, display or otherwise dispose of that particular copy, notwithstanding the interests of the copyright owner." Basically, if you buy it or they give it to you, you can make it into a physical product and sell it and they can't really say boo about it.

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

So do you think then, that Daphne’s Diary magazine can’t really say that we can’t use bits and pieces from their magazine to decorate our journals? ❤️

[@dnash6406]

Yep, absolutely. Amy Butler is a fabric designer and tried the same thing. All she did was make everyone mad, stop buying her fabric and that's when all the quilters found out about 1st sale doctrine (including me). They can say it, but you are free to ignore it. As long as you're not copying the pages but using the originals that you purchase, they've got their money. Time to start ripping apart those magazines now??? @@gayleagostinelli_ct

[@AndreiiArt11]

Isn't Daphne's Diary a UK based magazine? I don't know if the first sale doctrine applies to copyrighted goods manufactured outside the US.

[@dnash6406]

@@AndreiiArt11 I hadn't thought of that - so, of course, I had to check! It applies to all goods sold in the U.S. Makes sense, since just about everything is made outside the U.S. and we wouldn't be able to use or resell anything if that was a limitation. I found this article if anyone else would like to read more about it. www.whitecase.com/publications/article/supreme-court-interprets-copyright-first-sale-doctrine

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

D Nash wow! You’re my copyright hero! I’m not sure I want to “chance it” with the Daphne’s Diary, but it’s interesting to know they are stretching their rights a bit! ❤️

[@joannedonovan9489]

Gayle, do you trust the fabric to hold the spine & all of the pages, or do you reinforce it after putting the cloth on?

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

I used heavy chipboard to make the spine and covered with fabric. It will hold together just fine. 😁❤️

[@joannedonovan9489]

@@gayleagostinelli_ct Okay. Thanks!!

[@1jmass]

I am glad you found a trimmer that meets the needs for your varied projects. I have a Cutterpillar Pro ABS. It appears to be comparable to yours, except mine has a light under the blade area that can help with alignment.

[@jeanneblondewomanstamping9788]

Gayle when I use FabriTac to glue fabric I often get bleed through the fabric. I Haven’t noticed you having any bleed through. Do you have a special technique or using coated fabric (bookcloth) or something? Any recommendations?thanks in advance. 🙏🤗

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Bleed through hasn’t been a problem for me. I think maybe just using a small amount of the FabriTac might help? ❤️

Hi Gayle. I really enjoy your videos. Question- - Is using only fabric strong enough when you`re creating your cover? I always have included tape or something and then placed fabric over the tape. Using only fabric would be so much quicker! Thanks!

Copyright is not just about whether other people profit from your work. It is also about protecting how your image is used.. like when musicians don't want their music used by political candidates they don't support.

Glad you found your books Gayle! Yeah!

[@katpaints]

I am alway a process lover! I will skip flip-through if I see someone is demoing how to do something! Yes, you will be running around, but showing us some of that really helps! You wouldn't have to do all of it but some really is helpful! Right now I'm organizationally challenged for some reason and witnessing the process would help me realize that you DON'T have everything figured out! I need to listen to your thought process and see just how it is! Love spunky - yup , exactly, Gayle! And with the trimmer, make sure to have the blade pulling/pushing towards the little lip. It keeps you from straining your shoulder. If you have the blade at the far edge, put the thing to cut closer to you. If the blade is next to you, put the item at the other edge. Just adore my super duper, miracle cutter!

That's my problem too Angie. Anxiety. I have been wanting to open an Etsy shop since I learned about Etsy to sell vintage fabric, linens, glassware and collectibles. Guess that was about 7 years ago but never had time. Now since I learned about JJing I have an attic full of vintage books (some even antique over 100 yo) mostly children's books. I used to sell them alot to homeschoolers back over 12 years ago. My youngest and only one left at home will be 18 in July so I am tickled to learn that there are folks out there looking for them!

I'll spend many hours at thrift stores or used book stores flipping through every children's book in search of ones I remember from my childhood, mid 70's to mid 80's. There are some I can't remember names of, just the pictures and general storyline. I am also just drawn to the nostalgia of vintage children's books & love finding some that others may also be search for. 😊

[@patriciarider5698]

Petal Passion Crafts I always loved books and reading but never had many books of my own and luved at the library. When I had kids I went crazy and we had all the books that I lived as a child and never had....I shopped library discard sales...thrift stores..etc etc. I started grew up in the 60s and by the 70s had outgrown kids books. But we had books from earlier decades. As a matter of fact, Keeko was a book I remember as a child because I misplaced it and got in BIG trouble because I had to pay a 10 cent fine, a LOT of money in 1966 lol...didnt get an ice cream sandwich for two weeks. It is funny that in like 20+ years of scouring chilrens books I never came across a copy and Gayle has had two! I had a knack for finding rare out of print books that were in demand among homeschoolers or other books as well and sold them on homeschool curriculym boards online.

Warming up to this idea. When you are covering the spine are you leaving any room between the spine and the edges of the covers?

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Just a tiny bit. Maybe an eighth of an inch. ❤️

[@freidagepner2370]

Is cereal boxes thick enough for making spines? Or maybe if I doubled it? My husband cuts the book guts out for me. So that is a blessing. So glad your shoulder is better. It would be unnerving to have it hurt like that after having surgery and going through all the healing time. Do u go shopping for fabric when you are ready to start a book or do u have a fabric shop in your craft room? I ask because the fabric always seems to go perfectly with the books. Your new digi kits are great.

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Hi Freida! Yes, I’ve made covers from cracker boxes before. Doubling is a good idea. I would try to make the spine the same thickness as the front and back covers. I have a pretty good stash of fabrics on hand. So I go shopping in my craft room to try and match the book I’m making. I like to buy the small pieces from quilt shops. It’s a dangerous proposition for me to walk into a quilt store!! ❤️

Number one, very happy to hear the shoulder is feeling better! I am sure none of us would like to see you go through anything like that again. :) Number two, I have that trimmer, as well. I L-O-V-E it! I got a very good deal on mine - it was $99. at Michaels and it let me use a 50% off coupon. And free shipping! Fiskars is such a fine company, too. I jammed mine first time I used it on chipboard and they sent me another! The hubs fixed the first one so I had an extra and ended up giving that one away. Number three, it's fun watching you put these together. I always jump into things and devise my own methods, and then with KZbin, I get to see how others do things and learn so much. I'm getting better at looking at KZbin first, but it's not instinctive. I grew up working things out by trial and error. :) So thank you, for setting me straight so often!

[@patriciarider5698]

Your old valentines from 1960s are in public domain...even if they were copyrighted to begin with. For anything published before 1977 IF and only if copyright wasn't renewed, pass into public domain. Disney lobbied the Congress to pass a law in the late 90s that changed the length of time before something passes unto public domain. That is why you see those old Aunt Martha iron on embroidery transfers for sale on digital downloads in Etsy and other places. By the time the copyrights came up for renewal, housewives weren't sitting around in the evening listening to the radio and embroidering doilies and tea towels etc. TV ended that and us Boomer gals, if we were taught to embroider at all plied that skill embroidering peace signs and flowers on our jeans. 😉 So many passed into public domain, only to make a comeback a generation later.
