Wallpaper Handmade Book - Tutorial for Beginners (STEP BY STEP)

[@ForTheLoveOfMike]

I love how there are comments from 4 years ago, and 4 hours ago. Your videos continue to inspire people -- like me. Ive made many junk journals but thanks to you, I finally made my first 4 signature junk journal today following one of your tutorials after being too intimidated for years with so many pages and measurements. My son will now have a fishing inspired journal made with so much love and memories 💙 Thank you 🙏

[@LeonieGoodwin-l6i]

I am just getting into Junk Journaling and I am loving watching your tutorials. This is not the first one I have watched. They really are awesome. I have been nervous about starting, I guess I feel like these things have to be perfect, which logically I know is not the case. You have inspired me to start and stop worrying about being perfect. Your ideas are amazing.

[@ambidextrousandre]

I too was afraid to start creating journals. I had a lot of hit and misses but I continued to learn until I became afraid of NOT creating them so to speak lol. Well done to you for stepping out of your circle to doing something creative and fun. Have a blessed day. :)

Great cover technique. Tfs

Thank you so much for this tutorial!

[@mariejoiner6495]

Thank you for the great instructions.

[@kayvallance9560]

when assembling the signatures, i added to the outside rather than flipping through each one to find the middle. mainly because i always ended up with something not caught! LOL!!! Either way, they are super fun to make. Thank you for sharing your wonderfully detailed notes.

[@TreasureBooks]

OOOOOHhhhh!! Took me a little while to understand what you mean! That is a fabulous idea! I have to try doing that. Why haven't I already? For goodness sake!! Seems so much simpler!

[@colinmackie9960]

I just recently learned about "the happy planner" and how you can really make planners, etc. your own. While watching videos on making planners, I kept hearing about different types of journals & planners (one being a junk journal) & I was intrigued. I found your videos & have learned so much! I can't wait till I can get into the dollar store & get supplies to start journaling! Thank you for your videos & for being so precise. You explain it in a way that I can follow. Thanks again!!😊💜

[@TreasureBooks]

Thank you so much. That's how I found junk journals too, I was watching planner videos :)

Hello! When you couldn't torn that scrapbook paper edge, you could give it a torn look by distressing the edge with scissors! Or a rugh nail file! 😉 Try that! 😘 Thanks for the tutorial! 😁🦋🌈🌺🐦🌄🐞🎶🌟

[@pistolannie6500]

I liked the idea of adding "Coloring Pages"...hadn't thought of that. toss in a small bag of colored pens or pencils in to your tote along with the journal, heading somewhere you know you'll be waiting. 😁

[@1995marixsa]

was crusing around for some info about how to make your own wallpaper out of scraps and saw one of your videos; I clicked and thanks to you I want to make my own paper with my scrap and make a matching envelope. Hopefully it works, thank you for your wonderful tutorial.

Another beautiful tutorial Natasa but I can't believe how many adds they've added to your video! I realise they need to be there but it takes away from what you are doing. Keep up the great work 💚

I am in the process of making one of these .. I started a month ago LOL and I am nearly done.. mine is a little chunkier but same concept :) gonna make more but leave them blank and make little Kits so they can decorate them how they like it :)

[@Lilian2391]

What a great tutorial well all of your videos are great I enjoy them so much specially your patience, ideas, colors, etc. I sure learn a lot in every tutorial & the best your personality and sure understand when you mention about owning a Crop a Dile one understands the cost of importing many things out of USA or overseas may cost. I have so many things I wish to purchase but have other priorities. Thank you so much for all you share🌸🌸🌸

I enjoyed watching the process very much, because of time and concentration I watched this video in in several sessions. I love, that I can go back to every step whenever I want and have a closer look. Speaking of closings: I absolutely love the closing! And I don't mind warping, honestly I like it, I think it adds to a Journal. But I'm a non perfectionist in creating Journals by myself *hahaha

[@donnawebber2359]

Journal is lovely. I also own the silent setter and love it , had for years.

[@addydog2012]

Love your talent! I keep watching your videos way into the nite! So adorable!

[@danutashayler34]

Good idea with wallpaper. Like that folding journal with this spine stitching. Your thorough. Thankyou and now it's my turn.

[@jenngraham1812]

I’m so glad you told us about the Silent Setter! I also do so covet a Crocodile 😀 But my budget won’t allow it at the moment, especially with just starting up and all 😀

[@kathyphillips9482]

Wonderful tutorial! -- and such an elegant result!!! I so appreciate the list of steps you provide & your process explanations are thorough and easy to follow. I love the way you organized the signatures! "Higgledy-piggledy" is fun for a 'look book', but for my working journals, I prefer a more serene & orderly format which provides room for the user's own creativity. Your format is both practical & adaptable. BTW - I understand the frustration of not having the perfect tools at hand. I've found it helpful to keep a 'Journaling Journal' for notes & reviews on supplies and suppliers with pockets for receipts & packing slips. Off now to find the "Silent Setter" -- and to buy more of my favorite glue! lol

So glad to have this video! My brother sent me several large pieces of beautiful wallpaper. Thanks for your time and instructions!

Thank you so much for sharing this. I made one after watching. I’m in the Uk and must mention that you really need to be sure to get a thick, heavy Wallpaper, or it will tear as you work with it. I’m just waiting for the right cord than I’m completely done :)

[@DylanJCat]

Thanks for the measurements it really helps. Sometimes people don’t give them and it’s difficult to guess what they are then everything ends up wonky. Thanks for these vids really good instruction.

[@TreasureBooks]

Thank you. I give measurements only when they are important to the project being made, which in this case, it was definitely important :)

Hello Natasa, about 4-5 years back I went to stores looking for wallpaper books for projects. I have a few of them around. So happy I have found this video. Now I can make use of the wallpapers I have left and made more beautiful items for family and friends. Love all your videos if I haven't already said as much.

Oh Jennifer, you've made my day! Thank you :)

[@susanjacquier5358]

Excellent tutorial ! I love these journals...easy to follow and such wonderful ideas :). I too have found the trusty utility knife to be my 'best friend'...I got so fed up dragging my guillotine out..much quicker and so simple..yay :). By the way...I bought a Crop-a dile...found punching the holes wasn't too hard, but sometimes the eyelets are hard to 'close' properly and I end up with the old fashioned hammer and Birch tool :)

[@TreasureBooks]

Heheh Oh I love hearing horror stories about the Crop-a-dile (not that this is a horror story) and its only because I don't own one, so horror stories make me feel better :) Oh how I wish I knew about the utility knife earlier! Its a huge time saver, it works like a charm!! Thank you Susan for watching and commenting :)

Hi Natasa, Hope you are well. 3300 people have watched your video!! Amazing! I am going to post it in the group. I learned some new things from this. 1. the magazine template and then ripping the pages is brilliant. 2. Great way to pick papers for the signatures rather than the tedious way (me) of doing it one at a time. LOL! xo Meg

[@TreasureBooks]

Yaaay Meg, thank you so much!! The template is great, but it only works for smaller signatures... I have to come up with a solution with a larger number of pages in a signature...
