  • A set of three small Rustic Christmas junk journals to be listed in my Etsy shop. These are created with a semi-soft cover from a recycled cereal box and covered in a pretty Christmas themed There is one hand sewn signature with a variety of mixed papers, most are hand dyed with coffee and distress inks to create the mood of a rustic farmhouse Christmas. Themed designer paper also helps create the mood. Each journal is decorated with the same 7 pockets and tucks and these are similarly stuffed with 9 pieces of ephemera for journaling, including handmade tags.
    The journals were lovingly created as a place to plan for the holiday, to write and wish, to keep notes or remember Christmases past. I had a vision of snow on the ground, the scent of pine and gingerbread and the soft glow of candles framed in the window. I hope you can feel this mood.

      It was the sheep that attracted me too. We once had a family ask to come use the shed (with the sheep) on Christmas Eve for their family devotional. It was sweet.

      Thank you Keryn! It’s a really great size, bigger than small, but not too big, haha. We didn’t even mark Halloween this year! No candies, haha. We are too isolated for Trick or Treat so no one comes to visit and I didn’t do any Halloween journaling. It used to be a favorite holiday, but now that the kids are gone…

      Thank you Nancy! I used fabric on the covers - I used the iron on Heat&Bond for this project because the fabric is a thin (quilting type) cotton. That was the glue is splotchy through the fabric.

      I'm a bit confused Lucy, CZcams showed me your question and I thought we were on a different video. The tape in these books is from a Christmas plaid set from Hobby Lobby. I have also done that alcohol ink technique to make vintage transparent tape - it works like a charm! You'll love using it! Thanks so much for watching, Lucy, I appreciate your support.

    Do you have any advice on shipping costs for Etsy? I have been using media mail - slow but cheap????

    • @BeAgainBooks
      @BeAgainBooks  Před rokem

      Thanks so much for watching Marvy and for the question. All the costs associated with selling, especially on Etsy, are difficult. I know each seller has different circumstances and pressures. My humble advice is to factor all these fees and costs, including shipping, into your selling price. I like using Etsy’s shipping because I can easily track the package from Etsy and I can also buy extra insurance for my irreplaceable journals. I think you might be taking a bit of a chance on media mail. Unless you can replace what you send easily.
