Please PLEASE do more of these 10 ephemera ideas!!!!
I was not a fan of using children’s book pages in a journal, but I have to say, you have totally changed my mind. It just really depends on the books and you chose them perfectly.
I’m happy I could convince you otherwise! ☺️❤️
Oh Barbara! You took already fabulous book pages & made them even more incredible. Your imagination is ENDLESS - your talent is enviable! WOW!
Thanks so much Debbe! ❤️
Yay! A new video. I’m going to snuggle down in bed with a cup of tea to watch this. ❤️❤️❤️
Aaaaw ❤️
Barbara, you have found the most colorful children books ever! What fun this is! Can't wait to see what journal you are going to make with these!
I’m very lucky that way! ☺️. I will be happy to share my journey with these 😃❤️
So many great ideas. I can’t wait to apply them. Just brought home a box of books from second hand store. (My grandchildren love thrifting with me and have done so from a very young age, they are 8 now. One of them either could not say or understand the word second, so they called it the ‘hand, store. That is what I call second hand stores now, as in “let’s go to the hand store”. ❤
So cute! ❤️😊
You make it look so easy!!! I am frequently overwhelmed when sitting down with a book and faced with so many pages - my mind goes blank and I just don’t know where to start. Thanks for the ideas and inspiration. 💕💕
I get it! I hope this helped a little! ❤️
I found a Janusz Grabianski book, inspired by you and have loved creating around his delightful illustrations. Thank you for enriching my art life.🥰
That’s great! I’m so happy! 😃❤️
These are wonderful ideas. I just retired after 30 yrs of working with kids and one of my favorite things is children's book illustrations so I will definitely be making these!
Thanks, that’s awesome! 😃❤️
Don’t you just love the graphics in children’s books? Thanks for sharing your ideas. 😻
Yes! Especially the vintage ones! 😃❤️
You speak very good English...glad I found your videos. Half price books online is a great place for children books 💜💜💜
Divine ideas! I love vintage picture books. You teach so well & share so much in such a short time!
Thanks Lucy, it’s my pleasure! ☺️❤️
How can anyone give a dislike? I love your ideas
Probably just someone who pressed the like button with a fat thumb
Hi Barbara! 🤗
Lately I have had no inspiration...passing my hobby table with a few started projects...glancing...turning away...😞 Blah!
Then I thought about your video on children's books and I have a few of these from my local charity shop.
So I looked up this video again! And now I'm full of ideas and excitement! Second afternoon and evening and I'm having so much fun!!! I'm just rolling!!!
Just wanted you to know and thank you for your tutorials that give me so much joy and inspiration!
God bless you in the name of Yeshua ha Mashiach! 🤗🕊️ Love, Lena
That makes me so happy! Thanks for sharing! ❤️☺️
Also ab sofort wird die Frau mit dem Bollenhut nach Kinderbüchern ausschau halten 😍 Sooo schön ❤️, ich dachte so.... unsere Kinderbücher von früher waren echt wunderschön, voll mit solch süßen Illustrationen ❤️
Ich hoffe du wirst fündig! 😃❤️
Hello Barbara, what a wonderful haul of children's books. I gave ALL my son's books to a Charity many years ago, I can cry when I think of it.☹☹ OH Well, hopefully someone else is enjoying them. Back in the day I gave card making classes (for 10 years, until I got ill) so I never used them in card making. I just love what you did with them and am now going to look out for some more children's books. 😂😂 Thank you so much for always being so willing in sharing with us and for your wonderful delivery, it is so soothing and calming. Love this channel. See you again on Friday. Blessings and hugs. Diana 😃🦊🦊
You are the sweetest, Diana! It was generous of you to donate your beautiful books and this way you get to hunt for more = win-win in my eyes! Enjoy! 😃❤️
Also, some schools or churches have book drives for fundraisers. I love these. I can't wait to see the journal they will go in!
Awesome tip! 👍🏻😃
These are super adorable! All the squirrels were my favorite! Another reminder that we don’t always have to add more! Somethings are perfect just the way they are. 🥰
Love, love love. 💕
I absolutely love this Barbara!!! I have a ton of children's books. A thrift store we had gone in had 20 books for $1.00 someone donated a bunch of books and they had no place to store them...many were vintage, so we made quite the haul!! I just adore them 🥰💕🥰
Thanks! That’s amazing! 😃❤️
What a great find!!!
Those books are lovely… I would absolutely not be able to cut in them, not after reading the whole book
Another place to look for used books...The libraries in the towns here in Michigan have a huge sale once a year in the Fall. Lots to choose from...botanical, children, nature etc. Low prices. I love your ideas. TFS🤗
Perfect, thanks for sharing that, Nancy! I’m sure other libraries do that as well! 😃❤️
Hey I’m in Michigan too❤️❤️
MI here too!
I’m in Michigan, too!
Yes they do
Wow! So many wonderful ideas! I think I have to take out my children's books!
Thanks! I think so too! 😃❤️
Thank you so much for your efforts and for gathering all those ideas into one video for us. You are a brilliant teacher. Everything was well presented, your explanations were clear and simple. Bravo and thank you 👍🏻💕
I couldn't have told it better 😍👍.
Thanks so much Pamela! ❤️☺️
@@49dragonflies Well deserved 😉!
Oh Barbara...how do you do it? You consistently give us so many fun and unique ideas. I love this video. I especially love your clever way of cutting around the bird's beak. It's details and ideas like that which puts the added interest in a simple pocket. I never would have thought of that. Simply adorable. Keep 'em coming. Have a blessed day!😘❤
Thanks so much Denise! Giving you joy and inspiration is my mission! ☺️❤️
Thank you so mucho for these beautiful ideas. A big hug for you Barbara.
Wonderful ideas! I've got a million old kids books, so I'll have to get busy now. Thanks for the ideas and the video, appreciate it!
What a great idea! I went right away to go searching in my pile of old books from when I was little. I found a lot of treasures! I’m so happy that I didn’t throw them away! I don’t have a junk journal, but I certainly will use them in my art journals! Thank you ! 🤩🤩🤩
That’s amazing! 😃❤️
Love these so much Barbara! They are super cute!
Thank you so very much instructions very clear and simple what l like as well is you get to the point quickly with no chit chat ❤
I just LOVE all of these Barbara! I think the bird pocket is my favorite!🤩
What fabulous ideas. I work at a library and people donate books that are too old to use and are thrown away. This is better
Awesome! I hope you can make some fun ephemera with them! 😃❤️
You always have the best ideas! Thank you for sharing!
Cute!...cute!.....cute!..........😻
Love those cute books. Especially the butterfly fairy one. What cute ideas. TFS! ❤️
Such a helpful video. I liked the way you showed how to use the orientation of the images in the different styles of pocket, etc. I often can't see past the whole page. Thank you!
I picked up a few children’s books at a library sale this weekend.
Perfect! 😃❤️
I enjoyed this. As usual you continue to provide me with amazing inspiration.
Awesome video! I gave it a thumbs up before I even watched it! I knew i was going to love it and I did! Beautiful work! Thank you for always inspiring!
Aaaaw you are so cute! Thank you! ❤️☺️
I love the detail they put into a lot of vintage children books. such wonderful illustrations, I loved that grizzly bear that was on one of the pages.
Thanks for posting!
Hermosos libros y sus imágenes ❤
Such cute ideas to use adorable images
I love this video. The way you chose a specific source, then went through one by one the different things you could make from the pages really made sense to my brain. TFS!
Thanks, I’m happy it was helpful! 😃❤️
Yes, exactly!!
So many great and easy ideas. Thanks so much for show how easy it is to make somethingnso pretty.
I really enjoyed seeing how you made all these for an upcoming journal. These books were great.
I buy books for my art and then I can’t bear to cut them up, I have to photocopy the images!😁
I just finished watching these fun ideas and I come in to make a comment and I see that the beautiful and talented Luise Heinzl just comment a minute ago. I feel a connection with her and you Barbara because I just watched your video “with” her! Lol. This was so much fun!! Thank you for all these ideas!!
I love how we all support each other! Women’s power! 😃❤️
I love the whimsical images of children's books. I think they add a unique look to any journal. Thank you for these ideas. Love your videos. Have a blessed day 🦋.
More good ideas. Thanks Barbara.
Great ideas Barbara!! And how cool are your books, great images that lent themselves beautifully with your creations..xx Much love n hugs and thank you for sharing..xxx mwahs..😘😘😘💗💐💗
These ideas are absolutely fantastic.
Sooo many ideas... thank you! I have so many children's books that I can use as well!
Absolutely gorgeous Barbara 😍😍 thanks for sharing them! 😘
It is so so sweet that you think of all the different options of where you can buy all the books of what you can use. Thank you so much!!
Love from the Netherlands Petra
My pleasure, I hope it’s helpful! 😃
These books are much more charming and the illustrations higher quality than anything I usually find at my local thrift stores. I usually just find stuff from the 2010s with cartoon characters on it.
I love all the things you made from kids books your ideas are to die for thank you sharing
Thank you
Theola
Fab idea's, I'm a sucker for vintage childrens books :D
That's so awesome, my Mama was German and I'm an AF brat. Wish I could find German books especially children's books. Would love for my grandchildren to see part of my heritage.
That squirrel book 😍😍😍
Absolutely beautiful. What a fun idea Barbara! Thank you for showing us so many adorable possibilities. Hugs!❤️🥰
Thanks Kathryn, my pleasure! ❤️

What gorgeous images from your children’s books. Wonderful ideas, thank you!
These are so adorable and fun! I seem to have quite a large collection of old children’s books…I’m a little obsessed by the illustrations. What great ideas to make use of them! I hope Fall is finding you warm and cozy. It has been 90F degrees her in Southern California, so I am longing for some cooler weather. 🍁🍂🍄🍁
Thanks and hoping you get cooler weather soon! ❤️
I have a few that were my kids and one that was in mine . Such fun. Thank you 💓🤗. 🤗 Hugs.
Good morning Barbara!! Omg what fun and colorful children's books you found..Thank you you for sharing such a helpful and inspirational video...You have given me such determination now to not be so scared to start on my junk journel- thank you so much for that!!
Lots of love from Kentucky❤
Thanks Susie! That makes me so happy! 😃❤️
You are very welcome❤
I can't wait to get started on my first journel..I'm just waiting on my Art Glitter glue and UHU glue..Unfortunately my Art Glitter Glue isn't expected till around the 22nd😭
@@susiemoore7226 start without it! 😉
Thank you for the ideas.
Thank you for these great ideas!!
Very cute ideas!💕
Those images are so dang CUTE! Now I want to run up to Goodwill today and see what books they have!
Thank you! I hope you find lots of treasures there! 😃❤️
Perfect timing! Love this video! My sis just gave me 3 boxes full of children’s books. ☺️
That’s awesome! Have fun! 😃❤️
Children's books have wonderful colored pages. Looking forward to seeing the rest of your journal. Thanks for sharing.
Great ideas! Thank you!
Thank you for sharing these lovely ideas.
Such great ideas!
So many cute ideas
Great ideas!
Out of words with your creativity...once more...amazing!!!
Super-great ideas for using all of those books.
Love You !! Great Ideas !!
Love all these! Thank you, thank you!
Fabulous ideas. I always see a lot of older kids books at the thrift stores.
Watching you for the first time. My imagination is runny wild! Thank you!!
Thanks! Welcome to my channel! 😃❤️
So cute! Love the eichornchen! I learned that word from Luise too!
😂❤️
Very delightful video. The vintage animal pieces for the ephemera are so adorable. Thanks for sharing. Wow, maybe I need to post my vintage books on Etsy etc... to sell. The two faves from your collection is that 'girl with bird' and 'donkey and bear' on front covers. Glad you used that squirrel in tree page. Yes 'weird and wonky' pages are perfect for my style for journal pages.
Thanks Roksanna! You need to use your books, not sell them! 😂❤️
@@49dragonflies Yes!!! I realized that after I wrote that. I surely do need them, don't I? Lol
Thanks again Barbara, throughly enjoyed your video.
Adorable!!
These were amazing uses of vintage books…
Love love love!
Lovely!
So cute!!!
Another wonderful tutorial. They all turned out so cute. Thanks so much. ❤️
Super cute!!
You do such lovely work. Thank you for sharing this. From Colleen nz
Such great ideas for children's books. Facebook Marketplace is a great resource for many items including books and craft supplies. Also, these wouldn't be vintage but Dollar store has children's books as well.
I was watching videos and someone mentioned you can flatten the bumps from stitching paper by running your bone folder over them. And it was amazing the difference after. I thought u would share that tip since I've heard other crafter say they don't like that look.
Thanks for the tips Laura! You mean to flatten the machine stitching? It seems pretty flat to me…🤔
Love them all
One of my favourites!🐱
Great ideas & great tutorial!! 💕 Lol...the deer's expression: "DUH"...you nailed it!!
🤣🦌
I love all these ideas!!!
