- I found this tall narrow "Important Papers" binder, complete with neat old brown envelopes, in a thrift store, and purchased it for $3. I really had fun transforming it into a useful junk journal. I hope you enjoy looking at it and I hope it inspires you to think outside the box when you see things that have been discarded by others!
I found Several notebooks with the slant D ring that were filled with crafty instructions, pictures and stuff from bygone days. Initially I wanted just the notebooks, but the contents have turned out to be a treasure trove. I love your ideas, and I can’t wait to get started!
I collect used ring bound planners from charity shops , i use them for junk journaling and glue booking and as very pretty notebooks . Your videos are giving me so many ideas thank you from England..
Gorgeous and elegant!
Thank you! 😊
This is how I started my journal journey....with binders....now have learned signature binding,,,,,its a process,,,having so much fun.
Thank You. Love the "find" ! And love all that you you have added.
I really like how you brought the various elements together. Great job.
Very happy to "find" you....Thank you for sharing.💖
That is really nice! Love all the elements!
Love, love, love this - this is my type of junk journal/smash book

I so love this!!

very cute!
👍
Thank you Dahling! It was really fun to make. Watch for part 2!
thanks
Yet another similarity. I also adore Norman Rockwell's art. Hmmmmm, how do you feel about Peanuts?
How do you cover your notebook with paper? Modpodge, glue, do you ruff up the cover so the paper adheres better? So cute! TfS
Omg..I know this was from 6 years ago but came up in my reccomend. I literally just won one of these on a Goodwill auction!! I bid on it with the intention of using it for a a junk album for our trip to Disney next year!!!if you are still on here what was the name of the reproduction stationary book?
I want to make a junk journal with actual journal entries (writing)
How do I go about writing and still having things glued on?
What kind of glue do you use? Some of my glue because it's water based wrinkles the pages. Yours looks great.
I'm not sure what I was using back then (this is an old video!), but now I use Scotch white glue, and Beacon 3-in-1 glue (it's like FabritTac). I also use a double sided tape at times.
The papers that you hoard I hope you copied them so you will always have them/as template. Plus in a editing software you can change a blk. & wht. Imprint to a red or blue or brown imprint to your liking.
That's cool. I have a lot to learn!
please make part 2

Cant you show how you do it :) i love your video
Thank you so much. What do you want to know how to do? The covers, or the pages? I just covered a binder with pretty papers and decorated it. Since it was a tall binder and the paper wouldn't wrap around, I covered it with 2 pieces of paper and covered the seam with trim. I've never done a tutorial video, but if there is something in particular you want me to show, I will try.
The covers
Well, I have never done a tutorial, but I will think about showing how I do the covers. Thank you for your interest!
Put your camera above you, looking down at your hands.
No sound
I'm sorry you couldn't hear it. I can hear it on my computer. Not sure what happened on your end! I hope you try again.
