    I like how you write out the steps and explain everything so well. It’s like sitting there visiting with you.

    Take the front pocket and add a second layer of clear acetate sew, but leave top open to add glitter, charms, etc. Then sew top to keep it in the window or use some decorative paper. Just an idea. Love your pouches!

    I was selling handmade greeting cards at a craft show today and wished I’d had something special to place customer’s purchases in. This is perfect!!! I will be making lots of these. Thank you so much for your time to do this tutorial and sharing with all of us

    I love those little bags. They’d be great for jewelry bags, valentine cards. Love letters, gift cards. Thanks so much for the simple tutorial.

    These are precious - not only are you giving a book a second life, but you’re creating a great way to tuck in extra little things to put in your journal or scrapbook. I love this idea - thank you for sharing this.

    • @TreasureBooks
      @TreasureBooks  Před 4 lety

      Thank you so much Kate!! That is exactly the way I see it!!

    Love these! So excited to get in my scraproom and make some. Only thing I will change is, the upside down writing on the flap. It would drive me crazy. I know. I'm strange. Lol! So when gluing the back pages together, I will turn one page upside down . Inside and outside flap will be right side up. Thank you for a great video!

    • @TreasureBooks
      @TreasureBooks  Před 5 lety +9

      I had the same dilemma. But then the back is upside down, and I couldn't handle that. So I compromised this way. I guess we are both strange. hehe

  • @gathercreatelivewithleslie8340

    Love these! Just started myself and will be making a book of these today. Wonderful use of book pages. Also watched your clear folders. I get wonky flap tops sometimes so what I do is fold over gently and do both flaps at once, that way they match. Great for small gifts too. Just subbed.

      I don't have a sewing machine either, so it's always glue for me. Watching these amazing videos I wish I had a sewing machine, but I just have to improvise 🙂. We could do it by hand, but for me it would take days, tears and bloody fingers, I'm that bad at sewing 😅
