This was a great journal! I love all of our vintage touches, and LOL! I agree that the pictures in those old cookbooks are kind of disturbing. My girls and I laugh about them all the time. Anyway, I love your journal!
Nicely done. The rings allow for you to pull out a page and work on it. This makes me realize I could do the same to some vintage 5x7 calendar diaries that my mom used -- where there was a themed photo on one side and a horizontal week on a page on the other. My mom's handwriting is all over some of the pages. The memories! Thanks for the ring binder idea.
Wow! This is fantastic! You have such creative ideas and wonderful ephemera. The whole journal really captures that 1940s/50s era. It could almost tell a story on its own. Can't wait to see your next one, and maybe I would even be in time to buy it! :)
Just bought one of those same cookbooks(1953) for $1 at an estate sale. The cover is in perfect condition. Now I need to do something with it. Love what you did with yours.
Hi! Very sweet! ❤ Really great page ideas/decorations; especially including the old advertisements, etc. I love seeing old books repurposed. thx so much for sharing your creation.
I absolutely love it! I am late to the party and learning about this journaling business now. I love all the authentic vintage ephemera you have used. You have so many ideas that I have noted. Hoping to fashion a noteworthy journal soon. Thank you for sharing your talent!
I have a collection of these ring binders. I cant wait to make them into journals. Great ideas! Its on my list of journals to make! (Its a long list!)😁
Enjoyed this flip through. Great job! I learned a lot of new techniques that I haven’t seen used before. Like how to include those tall pages from Saturday Evening Post. TYFS! 💖
Kristin, I just subscribed to your channel!!!! I love this cookbook journal and see that it has sold. Would you mind telling me how much it sold for? I think all the adds and everything are wonderful!!!!!
I love this! It's so thoughtfully put together and looks great! How do you have a special hole punch for the rings in this binder or did you use a single punch?
