I watched this video at least six times until I was brave enough to get my book out and I did page by page with you. I put you on pause while we were ripping pages and I was shaking! How silly, it's just paper. Thanks for your guidance and your calming voice to get me through this. Thanks for all the videos and sharing your knowledge with us! 😘
Aw, I’m so happy you found the courage to do it and I hope you are happy with the result! ☺️❤️
We are told our entires lives NOT to tear pages out of books or to tear up anything to do with a book! It took me a minute, too, to get over it! 😁❤️
TFS. You make it easy to follow along. I'm new and overwhelmed with all the things a person can do in the junk journal world! I think starting with an altered book would be an easy way to get my feet wet! I'm going to do it! 🤗
Awesome Nancy! So happy you are giving this a try! 😃
I do have some books. Now to choose one and dive in. What fun!
Awesome! So happy you are joining in! 😃
Thank you for listing the other playlists. I started watching with your thrift shop hunt last night and popped around to some of the others but they were a little hard to find. I'm enjoying gleaning tips from each of you. I stopped at a thrift shop earlier this evening and picked out a book. I'm falling asleep as I sit here or I would start folding and tearing out pages. So excited to start .
You are welcome, Deborah! Have fun with your book! 😃
I think I’m going to make one of my beautiful Reader’s Digest books into a pocket journal. This looks like such a FUN project. 👏🏻👏🏻😍😘😘
Awesome sweetie! Let’s do this project together! 😃
I am watching this again as I go through and tear out pages and paperclip my pockets. On to inking. lol, can't wait to play along with you in this journal. Blessings.
Awesome Lisa! So happy you are playing along! 😃
I am really enjoying seeing this process. I especially like that you are distressing the area where pages are sewn in. I feel it makes a big difference in the additional "aged look" for the book.
I LOVE the idea of a junk journal that's only pockets! I learned so much! You're awesome, and thanks so much!
How fun, I will try to catch up and play along.
Awesome Lisa! 😃
Really enjoying this series. I’ve been wanting to do an altered book for some time. Your tutorial well done. Very thorough! Thank you.
Thanks Cheryl! So happy you are joining me! 😃
Can't believe I'm just now finding this. I have a ridiculous amount of old ish books so I can't wait to try this. Tfs
Thank you, thank you! This gave me the courage to start my book. You have such a calming voice and it’s very reassuring. 💕
Thanks! Have fun! 😃❤️
Barbara I just came back on here to tell you that after struggling for a couple of years(I have no idea why) I was finally able to alter a book thanks to you and the way you explain it! Thank you for you step by step easy to understand instructions!!
Thank you so much for your kind feedback! ❤️ this makes me so happy! It’s the greatest reward for me! 🥰
I like this idea, because sometimes I get distracted by decorating as I go. This breaks it down nicely. Now to go book hunting! 💕
Thanks Chrissy! Happy book hunting! 😃
I've been having the book for months to do this project and after watching your second video in this series I did it . Yay You've totally inspired me and it was easier than I thought now to glue and decorate. 😘😘thank you. Sherry 💜💜💜✌✌
Awesome Sherry! You are welcome! 😃👍🏻❤️
I grabbed an old book & I’m going thru the process as I watch! 😁
Have fun! ❤️
This looks like so much fun that I’m going to make a book with you!
Thanks Sherrie! Enjoy! 😃
First to comment! ❤ I love Gayle... she's awesome and so dedicated! I have to find a book so I can catch up. I will look around here tomorrow and go to Goodwill or the Dollar Tree as I know they sell hardback books too.
Thanks Laura! Have fun hunting down your book! 😃 And yes, Gayle is fabulous!
This is a great way to begin junk journaling. This is wonderful!
Finally! Someone who is doing this altered book project in a methodical and well thought out way. Thank you Barbara. Now... I completely understand the reason behind using a glued spine book, but I think it’s important to mention that if someone wants to use the book as an art journal in which they will use wet media, the glued binding will eventually break down. I always buy the sewn binding and remove pages in the middle of the signatures. It is very hard and tedious work and you do have to be extra careful not to put too much stress on the thread, but with patience it can be done. This last book I am going to make into an altered book was very unusual. You would think each signature will have the same amount of pages. Mine didn’t. The number of pages in a signature varied from eight to fourteen. So when I tore out the pages I had to make sure I had the same amount of pages in each signature. Anyways, I am definitely going to use your method of making the pockets. I think this is going to be a ton of fun.
Thanks you, I’m happy this was helpful! You have a good point about using mixed media in these books. I’m happy you are going to try these pockets! 😃
So glad you FINISHED the page removal process & explained it all as you went along- and showed various pocket options. Very very well done, clear, complete- enjoyed it a great deal. Thank you.
Creating along with you here 🎨
Aw, thank you! 😘 So happy you are doing this together with me! ❤️
Merci encore Barbara, pour toutes ces bonnes idées, quand on débute c'est parfait... j'adore toutes vos videos !
Thank you so much Barbara. I'm of to the book store tomorrow. ☺⚘🌷👍
Awesome Mary! 👍🏻😃
I've been wanting to try an altered book, but was feeling overwhelmed by all of the different approaches I've seen. THIS looks like the answer to actually get me moving from watching videos to making my first book! Love, love, love your process! THANK YOU!
I have watched this series of videos several times over. I am very intimidated with this new project I am going to try but I need to keep reminding myself it is only paper and only a book I paid $1 for lol. I am ready to give this project a try. Thank you for all the inspiration. I love your easy to follow instructions. Let the new adventure begin!
You got this! 👍🏻😃❤️
Love this video. It gives me confidence. I CAN DO IT!!!
Thank you! Yes, you got this! ❤️
I watched Gayle's series and loved it...I'm sure I will love yours,too! Looking forward to the next step💖
Thank you! I hope you will join me! 😊
So nice. It a super idea to put all your cut outs in. 👍
I followed Gayle Agostinelli for the process and then left the book on my bookshelf until this year. This is a lovely tutorial Barbara 🤗💐
Thanks Sue! ❤️
Excited 😆 can’t wait to get started
You’re such a good teacher!

Fantastic series!
You make it look so easy!
Give it a try! It’s fun! 😃
Love the book!
Beautiful example, thankyou Barbara xx
Thank you Barbara, I was trying to figure out what kind of pockets and how many varieties there are for my first altered book journal. This video gave me the answers I’ve been looking for. I’m looking forward to working alongside you during this series.
Thank you again for sharing your vision with us. Gentle bear hugs
Thanks Lora! I’m happy this was helpful! Have fun with your book! 😘❤️
Love this fun project!

Great tutorial! Many thanks!
Thank you so much! I love this idea!
Hah....my daughter just told me, her daughter-Girl-Scout, is going to make altered books, and show her fellow scouts, how to do it. So I shared this video with them because you have a way of explaining it that I think they will understand easily. Thank You Barbara!
Oh wow, thank you Vicky. I hope it’s helpful! ☺️
I love this step-wise way of tearing out pages and planning the pockets! Looking forward to the next steps!
Thanks Liz! I hope you join me for this project! 😃
Thank you so easy to understand.
I love 💕 and your beautiful work.
Inking first- all at once is a HUGE timesaver too 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
watched this last night - now its the morning - i got my book out and played right along with you - oh this is going to be so much fun - be well Barbara xx
That’s awesome Janet! So happy you are joining me! ❤️😃
Great job showing me how to tackle the 8 page tear method. I'm dong a bullet journal like the one you are doing, but decided to give this a try ! Just pockets and more pockets! Thank you for showing us step by step ! Can't wait for part 3 ! keep safe !
Thanks Mary! Awesome that you are joining me! 😃
Thank you so much for showing us how to do this! I’m excited to try!!
My pleasure Maria. Have fun with this project! 😃❤️
I love the way you are doing the pages, I don't have a circle or notch punch sadly wish I did as love the effect! 👌 Tfs
Thank you! Just use a glue stick to draw the half circle until you can get the punch 😊
Really enjoyed this Barbra you have made it so easy to follow. As soon as I have a book I will be re watching 😊
Thank you! ❤️
Fun, need to try this!
Thanks so much for this! Your videos are excellent, helpful, and clear.
Thanks so much! ❤️
I’m enjoying this project. I’ll have to go find a book now.
Same here 😍
Thanks Merry! Happy book hunting! 😃
I made one a few months ago and I had that problem where you can see the tears of the pages. It came nice but the spine it's a bit messed up and I was thinking that maybe the pages will fall apart. Yours it's coming very neat.
b 🦋
Thanks Brenda! Yes, this method seems to be working well! 😊
I 💜 this ideal, as I've always been nervous of trying to make my own junk journal...can't wait to see the decorating part 😊👍
Thank you! I hope you will enjoy this series! ☺️
I'm caught up with my altered book! So far so good! Thanks for being such a great teacher,,,
Aw, thanks Amy! I hope you are having fun with your book so far! 😃

Thanks sweetie! I loved Gayle’s series as well! I’m already feeling the addiction and don’t think this will be my last one either! So happy you are crafting along with me as well! ❤️🥰

Found a suitable book today at "my" secondhand store. So this evening I followed your tutorial (made a mistake when tearing...but I guess I will be able to cover the edges with something nice.. ). And I am ready for step 3. This is alot of fun! 🤩
So happy you found a book! Have fun decorating the pages! 😊❤️

Thanks, you are most welcome! Happy you are joining me! 😃
Yay! Uni has finished for the year last week so I can join in with you on this. I've missed my craft room and just being creative. I finally got my five items ready to send to my partner yesterday so its going to a wonderful creative summer. Thank you for the perfect timing of this series. I love how you're breaking it down. I just need to find a book that's small enough, and not the massive readers digest condensed version I currently have. I will go book hunting tomorrow to see what I can find.
Awesome Jodie! Happy dir you to ah e a crafty summer ahead! 😃 Enjoy the book hunt! So happy you are playing along! 😃
Tyvm for a great tutorial
Barbara thanks for sharing this idea. After I finish my project this is something I would like to try. TFS! ❤️
My pleasure Pam! Looking forward having you join in! 😃❤️
I just finished an altered book using Gayles tutorial. They are so much fun. I'll bet yours will be awesome.❤️
Aw, thanks Loretta! Gayle’s series is so fun as well! 😃
Love this!!!!tfs...can't wait for the next video👍👍👍☺️❤️
Thank you! See you tomorrow 😃
I think this is fantastic, I enjoy participating in this project! Looking forward what's coming next
Awesome Lodi! So happy you are joining me! 😃
I love this! Time to go find a book this size and do this with you!
Yes, awesome! Happy book hunting! 😃
Thank you for this vid❤
This is my first journal I'm so excited getting my book ready thank you so much for this series
That is exciting! So happy you are joining me! 😃❤️
I just prepared one vintage Book (tearing out the pages is so relaxing somehow) and I am so glad I can follow your process from the beginning :-D
Awesome Katja! And yes, totally relaxing! More come very soon! 😃
I've been wanting to do one of these forever! Gayle is the Queen of Altered books. I loved watching your process.
Thanks Sandy! I hope you join in! 😃
I'm sure Gayle is good at what she's doing too, but her videos are waaaaay too long...!
This was a GREAT video! I have my book but I really needed the specifics on how to make pockets and tearing out pages.
Thanks Lisa! So happy this was helpful! 😊
Barbara, I just found your channel and you have inspired me to try this altered book junk journal. I love your easy to follow instructions. Thank you! Now I’m binge watching your channel. 💜💜💜
Thank you so much! Have fun! 😃❤️
Thank you! 🤩
Very cool! I really like to see how you do it_ I really love Gayle’s video but yours is more clear explaining on each every step from beginning to the end-adding the paper clips on each pages makes more sense where you are standing. Love it! I bought 2 reader’s digest book with lovely marbled on front along with libra sticker when you first open it. It has cute “aged” look. Off I go to get it started! 😍😍
Thanks you Sonya! I’m happy this was helpful! I’m happy you found such great books and hope you enjoy this project! 😃
I like your idea. But you didn't make a journal. You made a pocket book. I still get inspiration from your work. Love it
Thanks! The title says altered book, which it is 😊
