I feel so sorry for people who don’t get this (all my friends and family)…it is fabulous!

The suspense!!!! You are most certainly THE QUEEN OF GRUNGE, Luise! This was life changing!!! Thank you so much for sharing your "secrets" with us!!! 🙏🏻❤

I'm starting a grunge journal and I'm researching. This is awesome!

Oh my stars!!! 🤯 Should I laugh or cry?!?! Lol! You are so creative!! I thought it was fun to take out your anger on your pillow but now I see beating up your journal works too! You are so fun! TFS🤗

I love it! I kept thinking, "Only Luise could come up with this great idea for aging a journal!" Thank you 😉

I've never seen anyone abuse their signatures like that! Lmao... They definitely look grungy now tho! Love this so much!! 😂💖

Now I know what to do with all these boring, blank, flat pages! Very freeing. Thank you for sharing!

Who would have ever thought to do this??? Luise, that's who!!!!!! You are totally amazing!!!!!!!!!

Nobody: Luise: Take your junk journal and beat it with a hammer. 😄💜 I love your "out of the box" creative thinking!

You sparkle when you are being grungy and it’s wonderful…❤️

I can't believe I have a hammer that I bought in Germany many years ago that is a match to your hammer😂I have now stored this hammer in my craft room😊I will be trying some of your ideas soon 😎

Louisa you crack me up. I am all alone in my house listening to you and laughing out loud! Thank you.

If that isn't enough, you can always put it in the washing machine! LOL

I love the grunginess of this. I esp liked the shine of the glaze added to it.

Luise when u started hammering the signatures I started laughing so hard! 😂❤️❤️ This looks so fun & I can’t wait to try!!

WOW!! What fun you had beating up that book. The effects are wonderful.
