I LOVE the way you move slowly. When I get confused (and at first I was very confuse). I just moved my bags exactly like you did and voila! it made sense! You are such an awesome teacher!
I love this because of your no hassle binding! Who needs that time consuming intricate mind boggling math cutting, scoring, folding, to have fun! I have all the tools but get put back when it gets to well,....😅
Wanted to give you a tip. Put that glue bottle pin in a bar of soap with the wrapper on to keep track of your pin. It also keeps the pin sharp and probably keep it coated with soap so glue doesn’t stick.
I am just getting started into Junk Journaling. I watched a good many video's, and I love the way you instruct. Your voice is not monotone, and you have a very pleasant attitude. I have only made one book, working on another, and a few little projects similar to this one. I will be making several of these. Thank you so much.
I have never made any scrapbook at all ..I have bags handy and I just did it !! thank you may may!!! tomorrow I start the decorating!!! love your videos I can seriously watch all your videos if i could but I have 4 kidos and 😲 I can't craft as much as id like ..i mostly watch you ladies May may , Stacey ,and Melody..after kidos r in bed thank God for school nd bed time being 730!!!🙌🙌
Amy, with all the love and respect in the world, my sister in Christ, please stop asking whether the crafting process is confusing. It's a bit annoying to me; a craft with almost 53 years of experience under my belt. I am never confused by any of your well thought-out and well explained craft tutorials. I am sure many of the other crafters aren't either. If any viewer is confused, he or she can always ask you about the confusing part. Please know that all you do is appreciated by us viewers and that you and Vince are well loved by me and, I dare say, many others. None of your tutorials are confusing in any way. Just keep crafting and sharing the love and I believe all will be well. God bless you and your family. Love in Christ, Anna Daugherty
I have made one (so far as you've made) and decided to do two things in each larger pocket. I also whined a lot because I have to now wait until Saturday to see what's next on it! I'm all about instant gratification.
We love MayMay, yes we do!!!! I don't want to wait until Monday (insert "whining" here). I made one of these years and years and years ago at a Stampin Up class. I'll have to see if I can find it to see how it was done. I have to tell you, I love the "sound" of the paper bags as you're working with it. I know, I'm weird, but I love the sounds and textures of all kinds of papers and stationery. I guess we'll just have to wait.... Heavy sigh. (loved thus video)
Ok, guess I'm weird too, because I love that sound too. Even at home working on my projects I love the sounds of my paper bags etc...yay glad I'm not the only one! Lol :-)
I have watched so many videos on paper bag albums and didn't like any of them. I'm so glad I found yours! Great instructions and I love the way this is constructed. Thanks!
LOVE this tutorial! It is a pleasure to "visit" with you!!! I have an album in the works and cannot wait to get it decorated!!! Again, you are great to "craft" with.
I found it easier to understand if you go ahead and score the second bag lightly, you can use that as your guide in placement under the fold after you trim off 3/4 of the top of bag. Then where you scored lightly will line up where you need to glue or use tape to stick it down under the flap. Hope this helps! Thank You for taking the time to make these awesome videos!
I am so happy to have found you; You are a fantastic teacher. Thank you for sharing your creativity. I am so excited to make your album for little Christmas gifts.
Sooo happy to see an album video...in a series format. Makes me so happy when you do these! This is coming out so good! Thank you so much! Smiles! Becca
You make these so much easier than anyone else's! Thanks Maymay! I have a bit of a learning problem with math, so the easier it is described the better, and I understood every step! Yeah! TFS!! Will be making these for Xmas! Can't wait for the next steps! Love the paper so much also🎨
Love this tutorial. When I have scraps from my 6x6 pads, I glue a cheap envelope on the back of the pad, trimming down the top so I can slide the scraps into it. I don't have any trying to escape...
I've actually made this album before and I also was very confused on the cover lol... However, I was able to figure it out on my own and got my spine covered with the paper bag front! turned out really cute as well!!
Hi MayMay. I watch a lot of your videos and I love them all. Thank you so much for explaining everything in detail. it helps a lot. I love this video and can't wait to make my first paper bag mini album. Have a beautiful day.
I really love listening and watching your videos! You are so easy to follow! This mini is super adorable! Thank you so much for taking your time to share and teach this!! Autumn

thank you MAYMAY I have always wanted to make a lunch sack mini album but had know Idea even how to start I'm so excited thank you Jesus for putting Maymay n my life BLESSINGS MY DEAR FRIEND
I really enjoyed your previous mini album videos and I think you make everything look so easy and clear.I hope we'll be seeing more videos like this in the future :) You are doing such a great job! Kisses from Bulgaria
Hi, may may, Just awesome. Your directions are so easy to follow,and I did like how you made the pockets instead of closing it. Great tutorial! I am a subie and love your channel. Will be watching Monday, and can't wait TFS. Hugs Debbie
So I watched the video from the beginning, and seemed to understand right to the end of video one. Then I got my paper bags, gloating just a bit that they are better quality. Also, they are shorter so I just barely trimmed the deckled edges so they are smooth. Well, first of all, the "better" quality bags (mine are from the Paper Studio) are very close to being too heavy to work with. I kind of struggled to get them all glued together, and I'm still not sure if they will hold together at this point. Then we got to making the outside covers, and lo and behold my bags are too short. Since I haven't successfully made one with the same size paper bags as yours, I'm not sure I can't figure out how to alter the covers to work with the shorter bags. (I didn't cut them... they were short already.) It might be possible, but I'll have to tackle it later. Great video though... not at all your fault that I messed up!
I've always wanted to make one of these, but they looked so confusing, you make it look a little easier. I will have to watch a few times though. Yours look so cute. Thanks for sharing this.
