Snippet Roll

My first attempt at making a couple of Snippet Rolls using Nik the Booksmith's tutorial for her 'Quick and Dirty Booksmith Method'- • Snippet Rolls - the Qu...
They were pretty easy to make and fun to embellish. Now I can use them to make things like belly bands in journals.

Loved your snippet roll feeling so inspired. My husband passed away in January, and I have the task of sorting out his clothes. I wanted to make a memory book with photos and poems people have written for him. I thought if I used some of his shirts to make a snippet roll it would be lovely to add to the memory book. Thank you so much

[@roxycreationsbysarah]

Oh Anna. I am really sorry to hear about your husband. What a lovely way to keep some of his treasures with you always. Sending you big hugs from Sydney

[@lynnboyd33]

Sarah, this is a really sweet snippet roll! You did a beautiful job and I really love the little bits n bobs that you've added!

[@Brvfan2012]

Sarah you and Rachael are getting me back into sewing. Just when I thought I had my junk journal supplies organized, it looks like I might be on my way to another new adventure with fabric, buttons, lace, etc. Thank you for keeping my creative spirit alive and well. You both inspire me

[@roxycreationsbysarah]

Thanks so much 😊 you sound like me…. I am always finding new crafts to try

[@bettymetz3746]

Thanks for making this look so inviting!! Blessings to you from Betty in Ohio.

[@melodiepeck655]

Very beautiful and creative! Love the music you added as well. Thanks for sharing.

[@roxycreationsbysarah]

Thanks Melodie- it took me a while to some some music that I was allowed to use and didn't mind!

[@lisajmascord8183]

Beautiful. You are very talented. Very artistic like Rachel. Such a lot of fun you two. Such a nice compact record of fabrics and embellishments etc and textural. Perfect.

[@roxycreationsbysarah]

Thanks very much Lisa for your kind comments.

[@melodywilloughby4041]

Stunning snippet roll. Thanks for sharing it. I am always on the lookout for yo-yos. I have fond memories of my grandmothers and great grandmothers making them. 😊😊😘😘

[@roxycreationsbysarah]

Don't you just wish that you had all your grandma's craft stuff. Such happy memories of shifting through her old button tin like it was a lolly jar!

[@3rscrafting]

You need to speak to Rachel -- she mentioned how pretty your snippet rolls were -- but they are fabulous !!! I just love them -- she did, too. I was just kidding. I would have never thought to cut out bunnies from fabric and sew onto a snippet roll. So clever you girls are. BTW, I bought your archive papers awhile back, on advice of your sis, and I just love them and use them a lot !! Be well -- thank you for sharing -- Patricia

[@roxycreationsbysarah]

Thanks so much Patricia. I am really glad that you like them. Also thanks for getting some of my papers and I am really happy to hear that you love them. XXX

[@gayneels5169]

Sarah that is a work of art, just beautiful!

[@roxycreationsbysarah]

Thank you so much Gay for your kind words xx

[@LesleyOlivieri]

I have been auditing these snippet rolls on Utube and find this method very simple. Thank you Rachel.

[@curtismoore2681]

Your snippet rolls are the most beautiful ones I have ever seen. Thank you for sharing it

[@roxycreationsbysarah]

Thanks so much Leslie ❤️

[@jenlitscreations]

Your snippet roll has to be the best one I've seen. It's beautiful and beautifully done. Thanks for sharing

[@roxycreationsbysarah]

Ahh thanks so much. I am glad that you like it.

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Just now saw this fabulous video, Sarah! What an inspiration you are!! 🥰❤️

[@carolyoung3164]

So pretty.I love all the colors you used.Your directions are so clear and easy to follow.Thank you for sharing.

[@roxycreationsbysarah]

Thank you so much Carol!

[@barbaranoble9748]

Sarah your snippet roll is the prettiest one that I've seen yet! I absolutely love it so much! Tyfs!

[@roxycreationsbysarah]

Thank you so much ❤️

[@heyseaville55]

Absolutely gorgeous! I love the clusters of buttons and hand stitching.

[@roxycreationsbysarah]

Thanks so much :)

[@maryvase4814]

Absolutely love them!!!❤❤❤You are very creative and artful! Love watching you and your sister Rachel!!!☀️🌷🌸🌼🌺🦋

[@roxycreationsbysarah]

Thanks so much Mary. I appreciate your kind comments.

[@patriciahavill8099]

Just lovely . Credit to you . I love doing these and embellishing whilst watching a movie . Might go make some more now . Xxxxx

[@roxycreationsbysarah]

Thanks Patricia. I think they might be a bot addictive. I already have ideas for more.

[@jeannieferdinande5805]

Glad you sister gave us the link...lovely work💕

[@roxycreationsbysarah]

Thanks Jeannie :)

[@1jmass]

Love the wide array of embellies you used. Buttons are always some of my favorites. You could make the base roll and then embellish it as needed with colors and such to match your current project.

[@elizabethkerckhoff1259]

Hi Sarah! Your snippet rolls are so colorful and lovely. I love how everything is mixed. I like how you sewed your buttons on too. I just started slow stitching. And I'm loving it. I watched your sister Rachel's video making a lace snippet roll. I've made one along with her. I'm not done embellishing it yet. I made mine pretty much all cream/white and a touch of beige. I've added buttons and clear seed beads. My next snippet roll will be like yours, well not exactly like yours. I do have a lot of fabrics,lace's and buttons. I'm excited to start making it. Thanks for sharing. I hope you'll be making more videos Sarah. Have a nice Monday. Liz K.

[@roxycreationsbysarah]

Thanks very much Liz. It's great to see how people put them together in their own style. Rach and I like each others style but we have our own spin on things. It's hard to know when to stop embellishing as you could just keep going and going!

[@elizabethkerckhoff1259]

@@roxycreationsbysarah Yup, it's hard to stop adding more lace, tiny flowers and so on . That's why I'm not quite finished with my mine yet. I could cut off a piece and add it to a page or tag as it is right now. We'll see :-)

[@andreastewart5722]

Your snippet roll is beautiful! WOW.

[@roxycreationsbysarah]

[@roxycreationsbysarah]

Thanks so much. Rach needs to make some more too.

[@nancynorris9822]

Oh my! So lovely, I had to watch it again! I did something similar as borders on my quilts. It's called "piano keys". Except it was about 6 inches wide. I added laces and ribbon but no buttons. I'll have to make another one with journals in mind! You put so much love into yours, and I love it! ❤️ TFS 🤗

[@user-mk8sh9tj8m]

So beautiful!!! Your first one is amazing! I'm inspired to try making one of my own now💕. Thank you for sharing☺️

The colors in the second one are lovely, so pastel-y and so cheerful and the first one is gorgeous!!!! I've been going back now and watching your older videos since I have pretty much caught up with the latest ones.....what fun it has been!!!!!
