    Amazing! What a fabulous way to use fabric. I would imagine you can do paper napkins as well. What a great tip. Imagine taking a baby onesie or baby’s clothing and making a memory book, or part of a wedding dress or colored fabric to match the colors of the wedding theme… so many possibilities.

    Oh. My. Goodness! When you mentioned using fabric from your Father-In-Law who had passed a light bulb went off !!! My mom passed away in 2008 and a year or two ago my dad gave my sister (who lives close to him - I’m on the opposite coast) my mom’s wedding gown to “create” with. She sent me large pieces but I didn’t know what to do with it yet but now … I’ll laminate it and create a Travelers Notebook and/or journals for myself and my three daughters. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

  • @ImGinaMarie
    @ImGinaMarie Před 2 lety +2

    If you want to try something a slight bit different and maybe save some laminate try putting 2 pieces of fabric the exact same size taking care to match up wrong sides together and place in pouch put all pieces you want laminated in the pouch using the same method. After running through the laminator cutting pieces out only 1 side will be laminated instead. It still gives the facing surface protection and the wrong side is not but you can also glue a pocket to the wrong side or embellish however you want... Its nice to make card stock this way to for journal covers or notebooks. You get the front and back done with 1 sheet of laminate on 1 side..just an idea

    • @LollyPalooza
      @LollyPalooza  Před 2 lety +1

      I do that with card stock. My only concern with fabric is that it will make it much thicker of a laminate, making it slightly harder to get a good seal. Also, I'm not sure how well it will continue sticking to the fabric once separated. With paper it works most of the time, but not all -- it can still separate. I suppose fabric type makes a huge difference.

    • @ImGinaMarie

    Lolly, this is ingenious! I would never have thought of laminating fabric, and now I'm going to pull out my box o' scrap fabric and give it a try! I just love this idea! Also, I was today years old when I found out that my Crop-A-Dile has a locking feature! Thanks so much for your very informative video. I really appreciate the detail that you put into all your videos. I've laminated paper and had the deep "air" pocket but I didn't think it could be fixed, so now I "need" a flat iron. LOL! Again, Lolly, thank you for sharing your genius with us and for making sure you cover every detail.

    • @LollyPalooza

      The main problem with thick fabric is that if it feeds through the machine (which it might not), it's too hard to get a good seal around the fabric. You could try with a piece of denim of the same thickness before risking your treasured fabric.
