Fabritac clogs were my nemesis until I got a cake icing squeeze bottle with a stainless steel piping tip...put a ball pin in the hole when you put away...never had a problem AGAIN! LOVE YOUR VIDEOS 😊
Love this idea and have saved your video to my CZcams playlist under “File Folder Projects”. I will definitely be doing some of these. I absolutely love using hanging green or heavy duty (kraft-colored) folders. If you haven’t discovered as yet (two years after your posting of this video 😂), the fabri-tak glue can be thinned out by adding a bit of acetone (like that used for nail polish removal) to the bottle and then working the glue until the acetone is incorporated into the glue. I do this by moving the glue back and forth over and over until that happens. The glue has thickened because the original acetone has gradually evaporated over time. I’ve done this numerous times with the same bottle. I hope this helps. ❤ 💜 ♥️ your channel !
I think that is such a fabulous idea. Now I know what to do with my old file folders. I am anxious to get started. Thank you for sharing this tutorial.
Great tutorial! Love that you created the fold onto a file folder to secure your journal pages! Plus the fact that you can add pages, whenever you like.
So simple. Thanks! I wish I had seen this video when I wanted to get into junk journaling about a year and a half ago. It takes all the scariness out of it. Thanks again.
This is a big help to me. I am going to add it as an extra to my journal I already have as I have to make some subjects as a separate booklet. This fits my plan perfectly. Thank you Gina !!!
This is such a great idea using the file folders this way. I like that the pages aren’t permanent and can be moved around. My husband used to have some of those green file folders when he had his landscape business. I’m going to go look for them.
Thank you Gina!! Definitely making a Gardening Journal and one for recipes and one for....... LOL I have ideas for this one. So thank you so much for the idea and inspiration. And I now have your European Butterflies so I'm excited about that too! :)
This is why I don't buy all those fancy schmancy Rulers and cutter's. Good ol fashioned ruler! Because alot end up using scissors anyways, LOL. Great ideas tho for journals!!!!!
Love it!! Thanks for taking the time to make this tutorial! Easy is good! (Also, I’ve seen some folks use sugarbelle icing containers for their glue? It’s a squishier bottle I think. Wonder if that would help get the glue out? If you like the brush, then I say keep using it!)
@@GinaMakesIt Yes. And then add a stainless steel straight pin with a large head to seal the tip. Even storing it upside down in a mug to keep it ready to go. I haven’t done it because I haven’t had trouble with a bottle yet, but am ready to try it if need be.
Hi Leslie! So, the beauty of this design is that it can hold as many or as little pages you want. If you want more pages, use a longer piece of twine. After you create the cover, prep all of the pages you want. Then, you can properly determine the length of twine that will secure them in. Hope this helps! ☺️
Can't wait to try this! Thanks for the easy to follow tutorial.
So Happy I found this tutorial , been wracking my brain as to how to put one together nicely .
Glad to hear! 😊
This is awesome! Can't wait to try it 😍

That's the coolest thing I've seen with file folders! I wonder if you could double or even triple it!
Such a lovely idea, thankyou for sharing 😊

You’re welcome, Diane! 😊
If you tie the twine at the top and leave the ends long you can use them as bookmarks.
Great idea 💡

Thanks Missy! I like that feature, too!

I’m willing to try it...I have some of those bottles here. Do they transfer the glue by just pouring it in?
@@GinaMakesIt Yes. And then add a stainless steel straight pin with a large head to seal the tip. Even storing it upside down in a mug to keep it ready to go. I haven’t done it because I haven’t had trouble with a bottle yet, but am ready to try it if need be.
New subbie here, loved this!! TFS * L
Thank you, Leslie! 😊
So cute! How did you tea dye masking tape?
Thank you, Elida! I placed masking tape on wax paper and just sprayed it with coffee! 😊
How many pages would this hold ? I would like to make this as my first journal but would want more pages . I want mine to be bulky
Hi Leslie! So, the beauty of this design is that it can hold as many or as little pages you want. If you want more pages, use a longer piece of twine. After you create the cover, prep all of the pages you want. Then, you can properly determine the length of twine that will secure them in. Hope this helps! ☺️
Just found your channel, have you tried goo gone then dawn dish soap to get fabric tac out of brush. As long as it’s still tacky it usually works.
Thanks for the tip! I’ll have to try that next time!
