What a lovely little house shaped journal! 🏠❤ So fun to watch you “audition” your ephemera pieces…made me feel better because I jump around too when I can’t decide what to do on a page. So many wonderful ideas here, thank you!

[@anastasiarose9003]

This design is terrific. I also really enjoyed the style of your tutorial. This is one of the best junk journals I have seen. I am feeling very inspired. Thank you.

I love this ❤️

[@tammyhale9462]

Love this video that I ran across. I watched half of your video last night and then lost it. I went off memory to make one of these last night. Forgot to leave extra fabric around the house but, I still love what I made. The great thing is one I found your video, to watch again and I'm making another one or two of these. Sorry, so long....I'm so glad I found your video. Thank you❤

[@BirdNestBooks]

Hello, Tammy! I am impressed that you made one as you did. I am delighted that you love what you made even though it was a little different. That is the beauty of these books/junk journals and why I love making them. It makes my heart happy to see your joy and that you took the time to share it with me. Not long at all. Every word blessed me!

[@FluffyJvideo]

This was amazing! Thank you for showing your process and reminding us to just have fun. Loved! And I have paint chips already waiting to be created with!

[@barbara-dj1uo]

Absolutely PRECIOUS! I love, love, love it! What fun.

[@joyjoyjoyfolie]

This was perfect!! I’m not new to being creative or crafty but I am new to junk journaling…. I love your style! Thank you kindly!

[@thegrandfernalley9146]

Just found this video. These are adorable!! Thank you for sharing!

[@sweettreatsoverload4296]

Thank you for sharing !! I have a pair of pants I ruined and I didn't want to just throw then away.

[@BirdNestBooks]

I know I am reading this kind of late. Now I am wondering if you made one with those pants. I hope it turned out great if you did!

[@ediewilson4043]

So much fun and relaxed creating ❣️

[@lindamarshall8279]

Hi LeAnn, I’ve just found your video. I love the little house booklet. I appreciate that you shared your thought processes, I find this helps me to know what to look for when working on a project. Finally, I’d like to say I REALLY appreciated your speed and brevity. Soooo many vloggers just labour the point and pfaff around; that drives me crazy! I know this is a really late comment but I wanted to say thank you. I also hope to find more of your vlogs. Have a great day. 😀

[@BirdNestBooks]

Hello, Linda! Glad you liked it. I like it when people explain why they do something rather than just telling me to do it, that is why I share like I do. :) I also spend a fair amount of time editing because I know how precious time is and I don't want to be wasting you time if I can help it. Not always great on these goals, but I try, so I am glad you appreciate them! I soooo much appreciate you taking the time to share all of this. Thank you, Linda! :)

[@craftnvintagestyle501]

Susie from Creative Cafe Girl recommended you. How have you not popped up in my feed, previously? Love this little journal. New subbie here!

[@BirdNestBooks]

Hello! I love Susie!!! Even writing this makes me sigh and rest because that is how I feel about all she does. Peaceful. Welcome. Lots going on in my life so I have not been on as much, but so nice to meet you. :)

[@melissafleming2812]

Love these journals-they are so simple, yet intricate. Very inspiring...

[@BirdNestBooks]

Thank you, Melissa! They were such fun making!

[@seasidepaper]

thanks for the tutorial - I followed along and made myself one. 😍

[@lorettavalmorbida7793]

Love your little house.

[@sharongruener6078]

Hi Leann, how have you been? Love these little house journals. Great job. Blessings.

[@BirdNestBooks]

Hello! Our household got Covid recently. I seem to be puttering along in my healing process. I tire out fast. At least I am healing. :) I hope you are well.

[@ArtsySolutions]

Those are so cute!! I love them. Thanks for sharing!!

[@BirdNestBooks]

So glad you liked them!

[@perezflorangela]

Hello! Wonderful to meet you. 🌵I am in sunny Arizona.

[@corinnepert7433]

Very fun watching and listening to you create. I'll be making one of these cuties to add to another journal. Thanks for sharing!

[@dorismartinez7307]

This is so clever! Thank you for sharing it with us!

[@bluemac9476]

Love your tutorial and the way you explain your thought process in designing your book. The colours work really well too. Don't have those paint chips here but will do something similar for sure. Tfs

[@tatteredtreasuresbypattie6047]

These are adorable!! I love them!! I’m going to make some for sure!!

[@BirdNestBooks]

Thank you! I hope you had fun making some. :)

[@tuthillg]

Very cute! TFS the inspiration!

[@ericanelson5320]

Thanks for the tutorial. These are adorable. I’m gonna try one or 10!

[@BirdNestBooks]

You are welcome, and thank you! They are a bit additive, before you know it you will have a neighborhood!!! :)

[@victorialamarque-blair6289]

And I thought I was the only one who was collecting these paint chips 👍

[@BirdNestBooks]

I love paint chips!

[@SybilEhningerHigh]

I love them too. I have made die cuts with them too

[@BirdNestBooks]

@@SybilEhningerHigh You sound like a kindred spirit. :)

[@loriwadding1966]

Just found your channel!! I Love this idea and how you showed us your creative process!!! 💕💕😊😊

[@BirdNestBooks]

Hello, Lori! I am glad to meet you and happy you enjoyed the project. :)

[@camiliacarrero6480]

Great and beautiful idea..thank you for sharing.

[@BirdNestBooks]

Thank you, Camillia! I am glad you liked it. I must admit, I have such fun making these...and I think they are just adorable. :) Have fun!

[@Journals-Decor-and-More]

Absolutely ❤️ these!!!

[@leannel1381]

First time watching and now new subscriber! Absolutely love the house books! First time I have ever seen anyone use hot glue in their Journals! Does it hold up ok? Not too bulky? ❤️📕😊

[@toosweetcrafts6685]

So cute ❤️❤️ I can't wait to make one, thank you for the tutorial XOXO

[@BirdNestBooks]

Thank you! I would love to see what yours look like. Bright and cheerful to be sure!!!

[@NotTooShabbyChic]

[@conniebartch9656]

Love it!

[@BirdNestBooks]

Thank you, Connie! I am so glad that you like it!

[@karenowens7330]

cute

[@BirdNestBooks]

Thank you, Karen! This one felt really rewarding to make because of it's cute little shape. :)

[@mariap.chavez8051]

👍🌹🖤🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈

[@donnacarraway9182]

Love the outcome, but really unless the chips are left over we probably shouldn’t be talking their chips for this when we can just make it from our own card stock.

[@BirdNestBooks]

Thanks, Donna! I don't know if you saw it but I do give the size of the paint chip in the video so people can make their own. Thanks so much for sharing! :)

[@jewelllowe3054]

I bought paint chip books from Sherwin Williams paint store many years ago that could be used and I’m sure my books are outdated with so many new colors added.

[@sandraterwilliger4879]

Hard to watch when it’s upside down 🙃.

[@marlenejones6266]

I like this idea for my junk journals but I'm sorry I don't like watching it happen upside down. I watch tons of videos and none of them make me watch the work upside down. Can't you put your camera in a different position?

[@BirdNestBooks]

Thank you, Marlene! That has always bothered me. I tried all kinds of ways but my camera kept flipping the direction, so I did what I could and pressed on. Recently someone shared with me a way I can do it. Now that I know, all my videos are in the proper direction. :) Thanks for sharing!
