As always what you make is stunning. I had to laugh when you said you had 3 signatures but had to take one out as it was too big. I wrote exactly that on one of the groups I'm in and one lady commented and had a giggle about it. I have been watching you for years and this is only the 2nd time I have commented. I think I said the first time that you have very similar taste to me. I love my lace scraps box too and I have a journal I am keeping with all the laces I have and some are 40 yrs old. Thank you again Jeanette for sharing your beautiful work.
You said this one makes you think Pirate-y. I think it's the cover. It almost looks like a compass rose on an old map. It's def shabby...and, it's def super yummy! It's funny how minimal the embellishments are on the books that are used and seen, yet there are piles of books chock full of incredible laces just sitting on shelves...or worse, hidden in boxes! I know the gift is in making it and giving it. The notion just occurred to me as you were speaking about using this one. I love seeing your work! Simple, elaborate, whatever! Your skill and your taste are the magic combo, I'd say! 💓
Here I am 5 years after the fact looking at this journal that is so lovely. I wasn’t even on you tube when this was made hehe! I’m still watching journal videos trying to improve how to make mine. I always love your use of buttons! Tfs👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🦋🦋
I should think that the pirate thoughts come directly from gazing on that lovely little treasure journal! TFS...I have yet to make a fabric and lace journal, but your video is nudging me firmly, (I can almost feel your hand in the small of my back!), towards starting one! Bye, Di xx
I missed this video Jeannette! But I am checking your channel to see what else I have missed! I do love this junk journal! Oh I see you had fun making it too! And it is as always beautiful artwork!!!!! I love how you always use book and music papers! As you were going through I though what I had that I could make one too! :) thanks for sharing! Hugs, Judy
Beautiful Jeanette (I like the pirate idea)you have way with words , after talking about pirates I could see you leaning on the railing reading your handwritten quotes that you had written on your travels , so back to reality !!! TFS -:) hugs Carolann
Carolann Grohn haha not quite sure why pirates came to me, perhaps it's the tatty laces or something but it gives me that feeling :) who needs reality when we have crafting arrrrrr !!! :D
Dear Jeanette, such a pretty journal. I find it amazing to see people recycling in their craft. It's so great to see that Jean now has videos as her work is very lovely. TFS, Amanda xox
Ahoy there Jeanette lol Oh it is lovely i really love the things you use to make each page, as it fascinates me to see just how you think and use such simple things, and how it make's a page and a lovely page. As for the one you dont like ??? why , i think it is in keeping with the rest i really like it. Cant wait to see your next one too, and would really consider having a go and one of these, but we will see. Hope you are in a good place now and we see all your fab crafty ideas. Big hugs Dede xxx
***** Hi there Dede it's so lovely to see you around again :) I'm not sure exactly why I don't particularly like that page, it could be because the image, paper and frame seem to blend in to each other too much? Yes I'm in a good place (thank you xx) Thank you also for taking the time to watch :)
Absolutely stunning Jeanette love it love it love and the colour's are awesome. Your work is truly amazing. TFS have a awesome day. Can't wait to see the next 1 x x x
One of the prettiest covers I've seen and I love it! Your videos are wonderful and I enjoy every page turning and listening to you speak! Thanks for sharing, it really is just so lovely inside and out!

Gorgeous Junk Journal Jeanette!! Amazing lace and trims! Every page has thoughtful attention to every detail! This is stunning! Thank you so much for the shout out! That means a lot ! Tfs... And always inspiring! Sweet hugs to you ... Irene
What a lovely journal! So delicate; not too piratey in my opinion, LOL! I love the many pages for writing and the limited embellishments. The crunchy pages are awesome!! Great job 😃
Hi Jeanette , it is very beautiful journal. I LOVE it so much, very shabby and girly. Thank you for shearing your craft with us. Have a nice day. irina
Oh, Jeanette, how fantastic, must, must try this hope it works on my mojo too, not too well really in as much as I am sleeping all the time, day and night although cant sleep tonight so thought I would watch a video or two, its awful, I'm SO depressed with it all, You come up with fabulous ideas, wished I lived in your street or town and I could pop around as I know you would pick me up in a flash! Hope you are well my friend, love and blessings from June xx
June AngelPews Awww I'm sorry you have not been too good June, they say sleep is a great medicine for the body. Please do take care lovely lady xxxx and know that I haven't forgotten you ;) I'm just a little behind that's all :) xxx
This journal is so beautiful. I have just started with the journals and found decorating the pages in my own journal very relaxing. I am making a journal for a friend who has had a paper crafting block for some time. Hope it will pull her out. I will be returning to your video for some great tips.
Jeanette, this is just GORGEOUS. I'm just getting ready to start making junk journals and I love how you used the laces. I'm very much into the vintage items in journals instead of the new stuff. Thank you for sharing. I started with this one so now I'm off to watch the others. Take care xoxo
Carole Ann Colca Thank you Carole :) haha I don't really have a lot of 'new' stuff to put in them so I just use what I have or can find. Thank you so very much for taking the time to watch and I hope you enjoy making your first journal :)
Hello again, oh, I didn't mean to imply that you use new stuff, I know your stuff is vintage and that's why I like them so much, because I'm not into the new stuff either. I love everything you make. I wish I had your talent. I want to make a book like this, but don't have the slightest idea where to start. Hope I did not offend you. I in no way thought you were using new stuff!! I know you are a vintage lady, just like me, hee hee~~ xoxo
Hi Jeanette, just found this video! Oh so beautiful! I love watching your videos and getting inspiration from your beautiful creations! Tfs and inspiring! Hugs, Deanna
