Very well done. I just thrifted the 1988 version of the cookbook and you have inspired me to make a journal with it. Thanks for sharing.

[@patriciaclements2727]

Hi! Very sweet! ❤ Really great page ideas/decorations; especially including the old advertisements, etc. I love seeing old books repurposed. thx so much for sharing your creation.

[@laurieharris8569]

This was a great journal! I love all of our vintage touches, and LOL! I agree that the pictures in those old cookbooks are kind of disturbing. My girls and I laugh about them all the time. Anyway, I love your journal!

[@kristinchapman8245]

Thank you so much! I need to get around to making another one.

[@laurieharris8569]

@@kristinchapman8245 i have a few I want to make but I have been intimidated by the rings. You have given me lots of inspiration to go for it. 😊

[@megancampbell3914]

Nicely done. The rings allow for you to pull out a page and work on it. This makes me realize I could do the same to some vintage 5x7 calendar diaries that my mom used -- where there was a themed photo on one side and a horizontal week on a page on the other. My mom's handwriting is all over some of the pages. The memories! Thanks for the ring binder idea.

Wonderful journal! I also found a 1953 and made it for my friend who was born that year. Still on the search for a 1951 for myself.

[@Jana-TheCraftyGambler]

I’m working on a BH&G cookbook now. Great great ideas here. You did a good job on this.

[@kristinchapman8245]

Thanks!

[@denacastaneda3687]

Just bought one of those same cookbooks(1953) for $1 at an estate sale. The cover is in perfect condition. Now I need to do something with it. Love what you did with yours.

[@lisebedard7247]

Awesome journal.......Love it.❤️

[@ginnyschaal7832]

I absolutely love it! I am late to the party and learning about this journaling business now. I love all the authentic vintage ephemera you have used. You have so many ideas that I have noted. Hoping to fashion a noteworthy journal soon. Thank you for sharing your talent!

[@gracev9619]

Beautiful!

[@judysmith2127]

Nice work.

[@N3k0N3k0N3k0]

Wow! This is fantastic! You have such creative ideas and wonderful ephemera. The whole journal really captures that 1940s/50s era. It could almost tell a story on its own. Can't wait to see your next one, and maybe I would even be in time to buy it! :)

[@bettymetz3746]

Godh just tealized this video is four years old. Are you still posting?

[@juliekeil8791]

Enjoyed this flip through. Great job! I learned a lot of new techniques that I haven’t seen used before. Like how to include those tall pages from Saturday Evening Post. TYFS! 💖

[@pamburke8614]

Wonderful book! Lots of interesting ephemera. I love these cookbooks and would like to locate one from the 50s.

[@PamVanEeJournalMaker]

I have a collection of these ring binders. I cant wait to make them into journals. Great ideas! Its on my list of journals to make! (Its a long list!)😁

[@cheranders-crafts7461]

I love your altered 5 ring binder! You really kept the vintage feel of it and it is awesome. So many cool ideas. Love it!

[@tamip293]

I love this! It's so thoughtfully put together and looks great! How do you have a special hole punch for the rings in this binder or did you use a single punch?

[@kristinchapman8245]

Thanks! I used a single punch.

[@hunterbug123]

[@kristinchapman8245]

No. Just ones I make.
