  • Today I'm going to show you step by step how to make junk journal jewelry. You only need a few ordinary buttons - they can also be a bit ugly, because we're going to decoupage them - a few beads, charms and tiny stuff, old jewelry that you don't wear anymore or that has been fallen apart will work wonderfully!
    A few tools, such as jewelry pliers, are helpful, as is patience... but then you're ready to go!

    It tickles me to hear and see the paint splat intro you have in the beginning of your videos Luise!!!! Can't explain it. Anyone else feel the happiness that's about to unfold in the next few minutes. Love it😊

    When you said, "You know me... we'll make this more special." Yes, indeed dear Luise, you make ***everything*** more special 👏🤗. You warm my heart and inspire my spirit well beyond your beautiful art 🦋💐🦋. So much encouragement, excitement and companionship feeling. These buttons are fantastic and so many imaginative variations. Love them all but I think I like the "short, dingely, dangely thingy" with the cute little owl the best.🦉 More happiness in store as I am off to watch the German video. Thank you so much and stay safe, happy and healthy!!!!

    Absolutely love the napkin buttons. I think I could squeeze some buttons and beads on my art table and make some of these. They are just so awesome!

    Realy again a gorgeous idea, you are always so genius to create “ new” thingies with old items.
    Love the symbolic use off that flower on your grand parents buttons.

    Hi Louise, thank you so much for another brilliant tutorial, I love your buttons and would never have thought of doing that technique. That is what sets you apart from others on here - you always think 'outside the box' as the saying goes. You are a true inspiration with all your projects and tutorials. Thank you so much for sharing this with us. Take care and bye for now as we say here in the UK! xx

    I also have a large collection of buttons from my grandmothers. I have many buttons like yours that are a bit ugly. What a great tutorial to change them into a small work of art. I have a lot of buttons with a shank and think they would be great used in this way.

    @bobbiwest6625 Před rokem

    I never would have thought of doing that with the bottons. They look very nice, excellent. I did see you use buttons on a few tags or pages in other videos. So jealous hit me, i bought a few buttons and beads. A couple fish , like Nemo fish, and pretty ball peachy sequins. One day, i will use them. Right now they are all safety pinned to journal fabric inside cover. Lol so much fun.lol take care be safe.

    @teresamarsh1555 Před 2 lety

    Luise, I love the idea of putting napkins on the buttons. I know a lot of times, you are searching for a color/type of button, and cannot find it. By decoupaging them with the napkins, you can have them match what you needed them for.

    @alicesullivan1790 Před 2 lety +2

    LOUISE, i love the four journal jewels. My favorite art craft is decoupage, so should be no surprise that my favorite thing in this is your decoupaging tidbits of napkins onto buttons, transforming boring grey to tiny works of beautiful art treasure.

  • @sheilaguthrie4525
    @sheilaguthrie4525 Před měsícem

    To paint things like the buttons, put a piece of painter's tape or masking tape down, fold the ends under so the sticky side is up. Put the objects to be painted on the tape, paint. When dry, just peel them off.
    Love the idea of using napkins on the buttons!

    @monicahendricks8563 Před 7 měsíci

    The buttons are beautiful. Try using I pins used in jewelry making to attack the red bead. They come with stop or hoop on the bottom and you put the bead on it. Shorten if needed and make a hoop on the end and then all you have to do is attach it to the chain.

  • @jukes243
