@jeanneblondewomanstamping9788 3 года назад

Thank you, Tina. I’m not a beginner, but I can always use a refresher course! And it’s always fun spending time with you. 🥰🤗🤗🤗

@marystewart7973 3 года назад

Aha! I learned something new today. I love how you fold the edges of the inside of the cover. It never occurred to me to do it this way. Cutting and trimming gets a bit tedious. Thank you for sharing!!

@roksannastephens4375 3 года назад

I like the fold over and tear away on inside cover method as well. And sheet music as the insude cover too. It does take away the step of matchung to journal. TFS those two great ideas!.

@angelathoma-dogwoodpaperarts 3 года назад

Not at all boring for me. I always gather new ideas, tips and tricks watching the signatures being sewn in. I appreciate the process and how we each manage to get the signatures in with such patience. I love how these both turned out, and yes, beautifully done! Oh I had to go out for an appointment today and what do you know, the quilt shop across the street was open and no shoppers inside. I had a blast shopping and gazing at all the lovely fabrics. Spent over an hour in there comparing materials and finding pieces to make journals with. Fun, fun, fun! Rather felt like it was Christmas all over again.

@shabbydabbydoodah 3 года назад

Thank you Angela, I really appreciate your feedback. Sometimes when filming it’s a worry as to how useful it will be 🤭. Oh my gosh, what a wonderful treat to find a fabric shop, open and empty! I can imagine the lovely time you had, enjoy your new fabrics x

@glutenfreeappletree 3 года назад

I've heard so many horror stories about contractors who don't complete the work, do shoddy work, or just take the money and run. I'm glad you will have a nice floor now. I found your video to be helpful; no need to apologize for showing your methods. Sue, from the US.

@shabbydabbydoodah 3 года назад

Oh thank you so much Sue. Our floor was such a shame as it was terrible right from the start, but it was one of those situations. On the plus side, our lovely new floor is almost finished now (just a lot of cleaning up left to do!!!) x

@dottygin 3 года назад

I love your tutorials Tina, especially as I am still a newbie to them so its not patronising at all. Every one has to start from somewhere. Thank you for your kind words for those of us who have to shield. We are the lucky ones who has good grown up children and they see to our shopping for us. They even wipe it all down before it gets to us.....where in an area where it is really bad. Hubby cant go out as he is recovering from 3rd stage stomach cancer and chemo, so his immune system is on the floor. As for me I am disabled and live upstairs as downstairs is too painful and the bathroom is too far away from the lounge. where as upstairs, its steps away as is my craft room when I am well enough to go in there. The internet is a fabulous thing, I love yt and watching you ladies craft it gives me my crafty fix. plus with whatsapp to video call the children and my grandchildren is amazing. So yes thank goodness for the internet. How is your daughter coping not seeing her little friends again? has she been given school work to do at home? My 1 grandson who is 10 has been given plenty and expected to do 6 hours a day like they would be in school. Please stay safe xxxxxx

@shabbydabbydoodah 3 года назад

Your children sound like they are really looking after you, even wiping your shopping down. It's been going on for so long now, it must be really tough for you and your husband. You are always so cheery, which I am sure helps you get through difficult days. Yes, where would we be without the internet? It's an absolute wonder isn't it, to be able to bring us all together with the likes of facetime etc, and allow us to watch only the things that we are interested in. We are so lucky these days to have such a fantastic resource. Look after yourself x

@prof.mommyarty 3 года назад

I love the way you say 'we', I just sat on my bum and enjoyed the video😂. Another handy series for getting us going 😁. Cutting into the fold is genius, I've never heard or seen anyone do this. Oh what is that awesome tool called? That's something else I haven't seen! We really are lucky having this lovely supportive online crafting family keeping us sane! I can't leave the house much even in normal times so I am very grateful 💖💖💖

@shabbydabbydoodah 3 года назад

Lol, thank you so much. My awesome tool is called a Rapesco Supaclip, it’s really handy. Yes, we are so lucky to be able to share here on our community, especially at this time. I can’t imagine what it would be like being stuck indoors without crafting to keep us going. Stay safe x

@prof.mommyarty 3 года назад

Oh thank you, it's going on my wish list along with the oval punch! No I don't know how we'd be without crafting and this community is invaluable. A definite silver lining for this situation. You stay safe too 💖

@emmkaa2099 3 года назад

Tina m'dear, this is EXTREMELY helpful! I can make JJ insides til the cows come home, and in tidying up over the past week I was frighteningly AMAZED at the amount of stuff I've made but had few places to put things. My absolute favorite thing you shared was how you stack your pages. Nobody has, at least as far as I know, said that before. You remain my heroine. From the Southern California desert, MK. 🌹❤️☀️🌵

@shabbydabbydoodah 3 года назад

Oh thank you so much, that is awesome! I have tried different things from time to time, but this is just my method (including the page combo) that I find works best x

@Sherry1946AL 3 года назад

I love this. And, yes, I have done handmade journals many times for my journals. But then, there are becoming many more elaborate, yet functional journals available for purchase or for inspiration in making your own. While I enjoyed every one of the fancier journals. Like most of us, I got quite a bit of inspiration for making my more elaborate journals from You Tube, Pinterest, and individual postings online. However, while I enjoyed making every page I made in these journals, I am truly enjoying the junk journals much more. I have my images separated into categories and store then in inexpensive ziplock type containers. They are labeled on one side and one end. It seems so much easier to just reach up and pull the containers I know I will need for a particular project. I do a lot of my work in my den, sitting with my hubby watching a movie or a series on Netflix. I have to sit more than I would like due to severe injuries I received in a car wreck in 1991 so being able to work on something while still being in the same room with Gene is an added blessing. When I am working along with Tina on a project, I will make from twelve to 24 of them, getting them to a point that will require something else. Then I put all I’ve done in a ziplock bag, along with everything else I need to finish that particular embellishment, pocket, tag, etc and label it so I’ll know what it is. So, I always have something to work on, without it being overload on my brain. And I love having things I’ve made ahead either ready or in a bag, ready to finish. Tina has proven to us time after time that something does not have to be time consuming to make, or expensive in order to be beautiful. I see it more and more as I follow and/or join her as she creates the things she shares with us. I am so grateful to Tina for her kind and giving spirit. I’m actually learning to relax as I craft. I love it!

@shabbydabbydoodah 3 года назад

Oh Sherry, thank you so, so much for taking the time to share some of your life with us. I am thrilled that you are learning to relax through crafting, and loving it, that's what it's all about. Thank you for your kind words, it really means so much to me x

I really love all your creative ideas! I can’t wait to make another junk journal with a fabric cover. Gillian British Columbia, Canada

@roksannastephens4375 3 года назад

I like the idea of the inner cover folded over at edging and tearing . I like the music sheet paper as well to inside cover to take away the step of matching up to journal. Your front cover of this particular one is so beautiful. With that heavy of a cover and thicker pages a double bind is a must isn't it ?! When I've made journals with envies I sew all the 3 pieces together at once, front middle envie, and inside cover. That also saves alot of time. Your method is probably best for upholstery fabric and old vintage music sheets, for it being fragile TFS your technique Tina, it's nice to see different methods.

Beautiful covers, Tina! I had found, sewing in signatures was a bit difficult for me. I was puttung in way too many pages. Then I lessened the amount of pages per signature, and I usually don't have a problem. Sometimes. I only put in one signature, and I do like making those types of journals from time to time. Fabric covers are my absolute favorite! Thanks for sharing! Hugs 💕 Suzy

@carolpowerslavenderdreamsc1599 3 года назад

Two years of journal making I still learn something new everyday!! I love how you sewed in the signatures. I tried embroidery thread and did not double it like you did. The signature was moving after I decorated the journal. I had to cut that thread out and use my wax thread! Next time I will try your way. 😄 Yes I feel very blessed to have crafting to keep busy. And all you wonderful ladies that I watch everyday while I'm in my craft shed!! Thank you for inspiring us Tina...💜

@shabbydabbydoodah 3 года назад

Oh that’s fantastic Carol, it’s always a worry that you are not really showing anything that will be helpful! Lol. Yes I always double my thread, I haven’t ever tried wax thread before, something else to try x

@grahamfox931 3 года назад

Morning Tina, thank you for this very interesting video. Please don't think that it is tedious watching you do what you have done before. I am a fairly newbie and seeing how you put in the signatures was a real revelation. I have stopped myself making my own journal from scratch because i thought of the impossible job of adhering the pages inside. WELL, now I know. I also want to thank you for all the hard work you put into your videos, i can imagine how much time it takes with filming and you also have a family to care for, so I, for one, am eternally grateful. Having a horrible week so far, lost another 2 friends from my art group to Covid, so am feeling vulnerable and extremely anxious, (sorry to worry everyone about this) ANYHOOOOO, watching your videos each morning with my coffee helps me get through the day. One favour i DO have for you, could you PLEASE start decorating one of the lovely covers and signatures you have just made, it will help a lot, because I now don't know how to carry on!!!!! (Blame it on the Boogie. LOL) Well, dear friend, as always, stay safe and well. Blessings and hugs Diana

@shabbydabbydoodah 3 года назад

Diana, I am so thrilled that this is helpful for you. I just worry sometimes when filming, so it really means a lot to think that this is helpful. I am so terribly sorry to hear of your friends from your Art group, how awful. No wonder you feel vulnerable and anxious. I am so sorry, sending you so much love and hugs. Please take care of yourself, much love to you x

Alanna, what is that clip thing called? I think it would be really useful to attach embellishments.

@@sweetpeascraftingintheburb4462 I googled paper clip stapler and they came right up. Amazon has them and they even have them with the clips in different colors. Thanks, I think I’m going to get myself one I never saw anything like this before, maybe I’ve been living under a rock. 😆

Thank you Tina for your tutorials and I think they are helpful 👍🏻💝👍🏻 I appreciate also the video of cover making with fabric because I'm hoarding samples from Laura Ashley and now I know how to make with it 😍 So please, don't apologize for your contents 💝 I saw that you were struggling with your needle...did you try to use a blind needle?? It makes it easier to ‘find’ the hole...perhaps it's make your binding easier?!?! 🤓 And yessss...I agree that we are all lucky that we can make something beautiful and create!!! I spend a big amount of time creating goodies for the old lady's of my community as a volunteer and it's nice to see how pleased they are... We all have so many reasons to be grateful!!!!! Have a nice day my dear and bye-bye 🌺👋🏻🌺

@shabbydabbydoodah 3 года назад

Oh thank you so much Victoria, I really appreciate your kindness. I know what you mean about hoarding the samples, I had been doing that, until I managed to buy a bunch when they were closing down (which I was so gutted about). Thank you for the tip about a blind needle, I will look that up. Have a lovely day x

Need more brilliant ideas like this, I don’t like cutting and measurements etc all by eye for me it just works better. How do you secure the edges so the material doesn’t Frey ?

@stephanieaddy7651 3 года назад

Thank you for sharing, even if you have repeated it helps to get our mojo back lol and jogs our memory, plus I do enjoy watching your videos, also when you use wipes on your pages are they wet or do you use dry ones ? x

@shabbydabbydoodah 3 года назад

Thank you, I am really pleased that this was helpful even as a repeat. Yes, my wipes are dried ones x

@SharonKinsley 3 года назад

Thank you for the tutorial on soft covers. I have been wondering how they are made, so far I have only made journals from books. I am going to give it a try. Also, can I ask where you got your glue bottles? I have glue issues and can only find those little itty bitty bottles. It would be great if you could post a link to the bottles. many thanks.

@shabbydabbydoodah 3 года назад

Thank you, I am thrilled that this was helpful. My glue bottles are icing bottles, if you search Sugarbelle Icing bottles, I got mine from Amazon. They did take a while to arrive, as they came from the US, but they are a game changer, you will love them x
