    This is my new fave inspirational for journaling. I love how she actually creative with upcycling and diy, and frugal ideas we all can afford those digital downloads get expensive fast!

      Thank you Michelle. I haven't started on the Rome one but got another smaller book to use paint on. I have a few videos here. I will be brave one day to do something with it. It looks good on my shelf 🙂

    I started an altered book in January. I was able to find the middle of a signature, snip the threads, then take the whole signature out. The first and last pages were lightly glued to the other signatures but was easy to remove. I did that to a couple signatures in the book

    • @onbeingwhole
      @onbeingwhole  Před 4 měsíci +1

      I might need to look at that option. Thank you for your suggestion and for watching ❤

    Love your altered book, you could also do lots of stamping on the pages and fold some of the pages to make hidden pockets, saw this also on a utube.

    • @onbeingwhole
      @onbeingwhole  Před 4 měsíci +2

      Thank you Debbie. I am sure I can add lots to it. That big book looks 'scary' though. Let's see how I go!

      @debbiebreen6276 Před 4 měsíci +2

      You will have so much fun making an altered book with this large tome. I saw a utube, can't remember the name, I will have a look and let you know which one I thought was very easy. Posting Happy Mail this week to you.

    Great video and you did an excellent job on your altered book. I really like the idea of skipping pages so you don't have to take out pages.
    As to the ROME book? If you don't want to make an altered book that thick, you could just take the pages out and use them in other journals. Especially since it's full of images you could use the images in many other journals. Then just keep the cover and later on when you feel more confident in making that big of a book with multiple signatures you can use that?

    • @onbeingwhole
      @onbeingwhole  Před 4 měsíci +2

      Yes it's a great idea to remove the pages for something else. Big books seem very daunting, that's why I love the A6! Thanks for your suggestion.

      I'd come here to ask the same thing what was the name and author of the watercolor book. It sounds like a great educational book for a beginner like me.
