  • How to make a faux leather purse from old used Teabags. Using glue, ink, paint and scrap fabric. watch my process as I learn how to make this for the 1st time.
    Great to add to interactive creative journals and a perfect material to store as a fun supply to use for Junk Journaling and art journals.
    See me read from a genuine London Times news paper from 1840 its made from rag paper and is 182 years old!

    Oh, goodie, I have a bunch of tea bags! And oh no! I just finally got myself to stop collecting my used tea bags! I hope this video doesn't make me want to start collecting again 😂. I put my foot down, no saving tea bags until I've used the ones I already have

    • @TheTreasuredPage
      @TheTreasuredPage  Před rokem +2

      It just might!…I used all my saved ones in one session to mass make Faux leather. I like tea thank goodness 😅 there’s always more tea bags. Have fun ☕️🍃🦋

    Felt like we went down a funny rabbit hole, but rest assured that I was laughing with you, not at you, as I was imagining myself in similar circumstances... I have a tea-bag sheet somewhere, but looks like I need to find it & throw some color on it! 🥰❤️

    • @TheTreasuredPage
      @TheTreasuredPage  Před rokem +1

      Thanks for your brilliant comment. Yes we have all been there. I thought I’d keep it real and let you see the reality of my process of making something for the 1st time. 😅 Have a great weekend 🌸☕️🦋

    It came out great Melanie! 🥰😊

  • @blackcoffeeandwildflowers

    Very nice! And it looks really thin which is great for journals.

    • @TheTreasuredPage
      @TheTreasuredPage  Před rokem

      Hi, thanks for your brilliant comment. Yes it’s very thin and can be lined with paper instead of fabric to make envelopes or tags. ☕️🌸🦋

    What a marvelous project and story. I love your purse. I have made faux leather before using tissue paper. I will try the teabags though because they may be more durable. The adding of perfumed oil is genius.

    • @TheTreasuredPage
      @TheTreasuredPage  Před rokem +1

      Thanks Jan, I’m really pleased you liked the video. The scented glue is great to add a pleasant smell to journals. Particularly if there’s coffee papers or antique ephemera involved. Natural scented pages can lift the whole journal and add freshness back or even compliment a theme. Enjoy 🌸🌿🦋

      @@TheTreasuredPage yes I am sure. I like sandal wood, patchouli and opium in essential oils. Geranium is lovely too. I did spray some of my pages with hairspray. I did this just to set the medium . I had the added pleasure of a lovely fragrance too.
