- I'm decorating my Dollar Tree junk journal with several pockets and a piercing technique. Using limited supplies really is a challenge, but I think I have some fun ideas! I hope you'll be inspired for your own journal projects!

@KathleenyMower you are the Bob Ross of junk journals. You are truly gifted and have such a sweet voice.
Oh you make me blush!☺️ I’m really glad to have you here!
You’re the first junk journal maker I’ve seen use crochet in a journal. Love that idea.
Do you crochet, Xenobia? If so, I hope you’ll try it!
@@BeAgainBooks I can chain stitch! Beyond that I’m hopeless. But I will try this because I love it.
@@XenobiaF I’m glad you will try it! Just be patient with yourself - grin! 😁
True! I love it! Thanks for this great idea! ❤
Love the crochet edges and the pierced edges. Such 'simple' but very effective ideas.
Thanks so much Davina!
Oh my goodness ! Absolutely stunning! What an amazing idea!
Thank you so much Cara!
I am parroting what si many others have said. Crocheting in paper??!! Amazing! I think you may have started a beautiful trend.
If you crochet, I hope you will give it a try! Thank you - and for visiting! Have a crafty day!
Absolutely beautiful… I’m so inspired by what you create. Thanks for sharing Kathleen.❤
My pleasure Wanda! Thanks so much for coming by!
Love that simple pokey technique with the scallops - always happy to be here and be inspired Kathleen 😁
I am glad to have you here Gemma! I appreciate your steady support!
The crochet adds so much. My mom tried to teach me, I was not interested. A regret. But she successfully taught our daughter. Legacy.
Oh thank you Dawn! It may be much easier to learn from someone other than mom, haha! Thanks for watching!
It's so pretty. I love how you used the twine to crochet and the flower stems as embellishments.
Thanks so much Sheryl! This is a fun challenge!
I’m definitely going back to the beginning of this series. Love your calm and gentle approach to this journal. My husband has been in the hospital and is now home. I need all the calm in my life that I can get. Thank you from the bottom of my crafty little heart.
Oh Robin - I’m so glad that I could contribute some calm into your life. I’m sorry about your husband’s illness and hope he will recover quickly now that he it as home. Thanks for coming by! All my best wishes for your strength and patience.
First time I've ever seen crocheting in a junk journal....LOVE IT! Gonna dig out my grandmother's small crochet hooks. Thank you.
I’m glad to hear it - have fun Jamie!
It's amazing to watch how you're turning a set of funky supplies into a very pretty journal!
Oh thank you! That’s the challenge, so I appreciate that feedback!!
Kathleen, this journal is amazing! Brilliant ideas to use the eyeshadow like inks edging! You are so creative. I love it! Can't wait to see what else you do. TYFS Cindy
Thanks very much Cindy! I’m so glad you enjoy it!
Kathleen, this journal is getting more beautiful every time I see a new video from you. It definitely is shouting "It's Springtime!" Love the crochet tab and on the cover, the scalloped edges you pierced with the awl, that polka dot mesh/tulle that you made into the hourglass shaped bellyband with the flowers, well, and everything else you did in this video. Very inspiring. A journal to lift the spirits with thoughts of spring, sunshine and soft breezes. Thanks as always for sharing your wonderful ideas.
Thank you so much Linda! I wanted something spring-ish! Thank you for coming by!
So many good ideas. Fun to watch. Thanks! 💜💜💜
Glad you enjoyed!
lovely pockets and tuck spots
Thank you very much! I’m glad you like it!
Very inspiring, Kathleen, as always! Will try to incorporate the crocheting in the future. Thanks for sharing!

I just love the crocheted edge on the two pieces. They add such texture. The journal is full of very creative ideas. Thank you for sharing them with us.

Another lovely journal. Love the spring colours ❤ great idea using eyeshadows to distress, I have plenty as I no longer wear make up. Also the addition of crochet in journals is fantastic, I love the crochet page edge. 😍 See you next time 😊
Thank you Sioned! I appreciate that!
Beautiful journal my friend! Hugs
Thank you so much Bonnie!
Love the crocheted edge!
Thanks so much Monika!
I'm in awe of what a beautiful journal you are creating with dollar store stuff Kathleen! Love that crocheted trim! 🥰
Thanks so much Nancy!
Such a cute journal! Thank you for showing how you crocheted the edge.
Thank you Sherry!
❤❤❤❤❤love your attention to details! I always get new ideas from your work. TFS❤❤❤

Kathleen you always put things together so nicely. Wish I had the patience to be like you in creating.
Oh Nana! I appreciate that!
Love this! Seed packets are a great idea! You are so creative!
Thank you Sherry!
@@BeAgainBooks You are so welcome!!
I am enjoying the process, it's coming along beautifully. ☺️
Thank you Bront! 😊 I’m glad you like it!
I'm loving the crocheted edges so much! I really need to try that, thanks for showing how you did it! Guess I didn't think about adding junk mail envelopes, so may use a few in mine... I am doing this challenge and another one this month. The green hues you have are amazingly beautiful!
Thanks so much my friend! and thanks for coming by Carey! I miss “seeing” you.
Dearest Karhleen, you are so brilliant!! So,so wounderful....😮❤😊
I appreciate that Hilda! Thank you.
Just loving this!
I am so glad Jessica! Thanks for stopping by!
you do amazing work!
Oh that makes me happy! Thank you! 😊
Amazing ideas! Can't wait to add them to my journals
Yay! Thank you Kelly!
Another great video. I love the toile pockets that you made so cool. Can’t wait to see how you solve your problem.
Thanks very much Sandy! I’m glad you like it!
I am in awe of what you are creating out of 'ordinary' stuff! You seem to not be terribly thrilled with the result but I think it is beautiful. The gauntlet was thrown down and you are exceeding expectations!
Love the crocheted 'lace' and how you transformed the white papers. I was especially intrigued by the bleeding pages of the composition book. They will be perfect in a project of mine.
You are so creative and an inspiration for me!
I’m glad you like it - I like it very much. But, the Dollar Tree materials are often harder to work with, so there may be some hesitation. But, as you say, that’s the challenge. Thanks for watching.
I love the crochet. You did some really nice things in your journal.
Thank you so much Nikita! I appreciate that!
All the stuff most people have from fancy inks, stamps and store bought expensive ephemera and they almost don’t compare to this! This is a great example of less is more!
Thank you very much Laura! I appreciate that!
Love the many new (to me) ideas! I am so happy you showed how to add the crochet edge, as I have been looking for a way to add in one of my other hobbies. Will be doing that for sure!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching.
Wonderful ideas!
Thank you Irene!
I love the colors you chose and the crocheting you did!! Lots of nice ideas!❤
Thank you!
I adore this idea of crocheting on the pages! Would love to see a video on how to do this.
I’m glad Jeanne! Thanks so much for watching. Here is the video where I demonstrate that. czcams.com/video/qjkbQGsdRzs/video.htmlsi=dEvE2NR3k76njY1K
So pretty! I love it! Thanks for sharing how to! Going to try that soon! ❤
Thanks very much April!
Don't know how I missed this one. Easy to do, that's why once and a while I go to your channel. I need to take lessons from you on how to do progress videos like these. ☺♥
Oh thanks Joan! You are a sweetheart!
Fun to see you using eye shadow instead of ink. I've used shades of brown for a couple of projects. I love the colors in your journal. So springy and fresh ❤
Thank you Tammie!
I think I need to take up crochet. 😊
It looks gorgeous!
Haha - I think you would enjoy it Kelly! Thank you!
I did the crochet! It worked and I love it!
Oh hooray Audrey! I’m so glad to hear this! Well done and the best part is you love it! 🥳
@@BeAgainBooks I used variegated embroidery thread and it works well
You are so creative Kathleen! Loved the crochet idea!
Thank you Darice! I glad you liked it!
Coming along so nicely. My journals always have a gator-mouth … I find it difficult to limit myself …
I know! That is the biggest challenge, right?! Junk journaling is such an indulgence…Thanks for coming by Sandrine!
I'm going to try your crochet idea ❤
I hope you will Sherry! Thanks for watching.
Hi Kathleen! I have been binge watching your videos and love your mixed media journals. Great inspiration!
That makes me happy! 😊 thanks for all the watch time!
Love this ❤❤❤
Thanks very much Virginia!
❤
Thank you Karen!
Beautiful crafting🩵💚
Thank you Sabine!
😍❤️
Thank you very much Carol!
I orderd just a palette eyeshadows with the many funky colors i dont have in my use....just for creating😅
Yay! That sounds like fun!
Great ideas and your choice of colours are spot on. One suggestion, can you speak up a little. With the rustling noise of the paper your very soft spoken voice is being drowned out.
Thank you Peggy. My voice is a constant issue for some people. I will continue to try.
I've watched 2 of your videos and you need to talk louder or be closer to the mike
Thanks for your comment Connie!
I love your journal. Your style is more like mine than anyone I have ever watched. You are the first person I have seen that uses crochet like me!!
Thank you very much! I’m so happy to hear this! Thanks for visiting!
