Junk Journal - Experiment Faux Vellum

This video was 4 months in the making. Can we turn regular copy paper into vellum using mineral oil? Will it work or will it fail? It's not just about the technique but also the update after time has pass.

Hi Winnie, I have done it. I used baby oil and it did seem to work pretty well, but yea, it does leave oil on other journal pages. I used cotton swabs, it seemed to work ok. That tea dyed paper turned out nicely! It's sad that there was still oil after 4 months. I ended up just buying vellum. Thanks for the experiment! Great video! Have a blessed day!

@@BookwormsBuddy Thank you so much for watching! I was disappointed that this technique was a no go. I got lucky and found some vellum at a thrift store while I was on vacation. 😁

Very interesting experiments. I enjoy watching your process. Personally, I would never use any type of oil/ food items in my journals. I worry about the effects as well as it attracting any type of bugs. I do appreciate your efforts and sharing your results!
Until later,
Judy
