I'm a lifelong crafter who discovered junk journaling in 2020. The idea of making something useful out of nothing has helped tie together so many parts of my personality - writing, papercrafting, sewing, fascination with vintage things, and seeing beauty in unexpected places.

Have a Distress Ink pad that seems like it's spent? Even if you've spritzed with water and re-inked over and over, they do eventually give up the ghost. Here's a way to get one last blast of goodness from that ink pad, and the ink (in this case, Vintage Photo) will reveal some amazing secrets about itself! #junkjournalideas #inkedpages #distressinks #upcycling #usewhatyouhave #junkjournals

WHIMSICAL COFFEE CUPS - an easy collage project! ~ #junkjournalideas
Bird buddies! I already gave them elf ears. I never thought of santa hats. I love it!❤. Merry Christmas, Anne and all.
The thing on the top of a chickens head is a comb. Very cute idea
that was a fun video! I 'haven't made DIY labels like that in a long time! Another way I've done it, besides painting the book pages before stamping them, is to do a collage on the pages with very small scraps! That is really fun, too - and you can get some very interesting colors/patterns! The only issues I've ever had with that, is that some paper -- like the slick/glossy kind, might lift up around the edges - same with some of the heavier cardstock, too. To remedy that, I've gone over the finished collage with Mod-Podge, to really seal those small bits down well! Then you can go on with stamping your label shapes! It might be fun to combine both of those -- like make a collage, then add the watercolor to it, so that you can still see some of the collage pattern through the translucent paint! YES! I think I'm going to do that! See? You just inspired me!! YAY!
What a great and fun idea - thanks so much for sharing that! I really appreciate the details, and I appreciate your watching! Here's to more creative adventures!
Hi Anne, I have seen Kooky Bird before, but not with a hat on and sitting on a gift. Love him, so cute. Great design for my next cards. 💚💙💛🎄🐦❤
Thanks so much, Sandy, I know your cards are going to be adorable!
Love your birds! I remember that original one. I've been in love with it ever since! I grew up in Connecticut, & we wore uniforms in parochial school ... & in high school dresses & skirts .... none of us ever thought of wearing corduroy pants under the skirts! As for hats, we wore beanies in parochial school ... ugh! Merry Christmas & hugs from Ireland.
So many hugs to you, Pamela, and thank you for watching! What fun (or at least memorable!) fashion talk we've been having! Merry Christmas to you and yours as well!
So adorable
Thank you, Sherry - they're really fun, aren't they?!
Thanks for sharing your label making ideas. It's my goal for 2025 to use more junk mail, packaging, repurposed material and such in my journal and element making. Happy creating.
Thank you, Judith! There's so much potential in our everyday junk, isn't there?
Absolutely love these birds and their cute hats. Thank you for sharing your talents.
Thank you, Lynda! I hope you have time to make some of your own, too!
I love these birds! I was looking for an easy idea to make Christmas cards for my grandchildren. Thank you.
They’re so fun to make, Dorothy, and your grandkids will love them! Thanks so much for watching, and I'm thrilled to know you'll be having fun together!
These whimsical birds are so cute. ❤️
Thanks, Jill! I had lots of fun making them, as you could see! Happy holidays!
@annekenlon Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! 😁
Wow, so cute! First introduction to your creations. Love it!
Welcome to the fun, Kim, I'm so happy you're here!
I so love your whimsical creations Anne! The bird with a santa🎅 hat is so cute! Wishing you & your family the blessings of this season! 😊❤
All the best to you, as well, Yvonne! Thank you so much!
I love these little birds! I made lots of them after watching your first video, but these holiday birds are adorable. I'm glad I have a little bit of time to make some of these before Christmas!
Thanks so much, Erin! I had fun bringing them back for a holiday appearance - so glad you can squeeze in a fun crafting session with them!
So so cute!❤❤❤
Thanks, Selina, I'm glad they made you smile!
I wish a very merry and blessed Christmas to you, your familiy, friends and subscribers! And I offer a little poem from a Brazilian writer, Cora Coralina, for your Christmas journal: Christmas Poetry Decorate the tree of your life with garlands of gratitude! Put pink satin bows in the heart, yellow, blue, carmine, Decorate your look with glowing lights extending the colors in your countenance On your gift list In each box, wrap a little peace of love, kindness, tenderness, reconciliation, forgiveness!...
So, so beautiful, Marcia, I have tears in my eyes! Thank you so much for the special friendship we have formed over the miles. Many, many blessings to you and your family as well!
@@annekenlon I´m happy you liked the poem! Cora was a wise woman, who began to write when she was a teenager, but she came to publish her works when she was 75 years old, after her husband´s death.She is considered a great writer . Many editions of her books have continued to be reprinted, since her death. This proves that we are never too old to start anything;
Hi Anne!!! I´m soooo happy to see the return of the little whimsical birds! Love the idea of the twine in the beak! The Santa makes me smile! I can say that your birds are the cutest birds in the world! Lol. Thank you for sharing!🩷🩷🐦🦜
Marcia, it was your inspiration that helped make so many people happy with these little festive fellows! Thank you so much!
@@annekenlon You´re welcome!
💜💜💜
Thanks so much, Amy! I hope you have time to make some! Happy Holidays!
Oh I wore ear muffs and dresses until the 7th grade ❤
Such a different time! I don't look back fondly on the winter wear, but I have to admit, some of those little 1960s cotton dresses were awfully cute!
Adorable love your 🐦 birds ❤
So glad you enjoyed them, Sherry! Merry Christmas!
Cuuute 🥰🥰🥰
Thanks, these were super fun to do - my daughter now uses this motif on the ceramic mugs she creates in her garage studio!
So cute! Grew up in Iowa, but live in Nebraska. I wore the wool scarves also, but not the earmuffs. We also had to wear pants under our dresses on those really cold school days! ❄❄
You remember the drill, don't you?! Our family home was in Southeast Nebraska (Auburn) and I went to college in Iowa (Dubuque) - spent college summers working at Lake Okoboji and then worked after college in the Quad Cities. Love, love, love Iowa! Thanks so much for watching and crafting with me!
@ we’re in Lincoln… but know Auburn. Been to Okoboji and we lived in Iowa City while my husband was in college. Small world!! 😀
Really sweet! Love when you do whimsical! Merry Christmas Anne and Happy New Year!
Same to you, Joanne, thank you so much - I really appreciate your support!
Hello Anne. I love this idea! I don't have the shape variety of stamps that you do, but like you said, a Sharpie would work. I think a mosaic of these beautiful labels on the front of a journal card or page would be quite lovely, and perhaps a stamped or hand written word in each label would be nice also. Thank you for the great idea!
Thanks so much! And you’re absolutely right, stamped words look fantastic, especially on those sections without background text!
Adorable!!
Thanks so much, Linda!
I have a couple of cards yet to make and this is a wonderful idea!
So happy these will work for you, Angela - I know they'll bring a smile! Thanks so much for watching!
I walked 7 blocks and was not allowed to wear pants under my dress.
Your poor little legs!
I'm 78 and still wear ear muffs
Keep those ears warm, Peg! ❤️
Love those whimsical ideas and these birds especially. What a great idea of winter or Christmas hats on them. Oh my gosh those ear muffs, but never left home with our them in up state NY winters for sure. Thank you I really enjoyed this series. I completed and handed out my gift card mittens and Christmas stockings already and all loved them. Blessings for a joyous Christmas and healthy, happy New Year. 🤗☃️
This means to much to me Lynda - thank you! Merry Christmas to you, and thank you so much for your great support!
Anne I really love your whimsical birds. I agree with you they can be used for all occasions. Hope in 2025 you do a video for Valentines, St Patrick’s, Mother’s Day Father’s Day, 4th of July etc. ❤❤💕💕🩷🩷
Wow, Eloise - now I have a lot to think about! So happy you like the birds - thank you so much!
These are so cute
Thanks, Susie - I admit, I have to agree!
Adorable!!!
Thank you so much - Hope you have fun making your own, too!
Love them Anne!
You're so kind, thank you so much!
@@annekenlon I have made the angels, cats, and the birds for Christmas Cards to a few special friends. Thanks for the inspiration. Merry Christmas.
I love making these cute birds. Thanks for making a christmas one. Happy Christmas to you and our family from NJ.
Thank you so much, Bonnie, and all my best wishes to you as well!
Hello Ann, If you go for a 2nd application on ink dye and its not giving you a deep enough color then add a drop of re-inker to the water. Maybe that will help. I really enjoy spending time watching you.
Thank you, Celeste, I appreciate the tip!
The mailing envelope is such a good color for beaks. I need to remember that. I love these birds and hope to make some very soon for my current junk journal.
You bet! They're really fun and that envelope color just pops! Have fun, Marilyn!
I love this idea...I do not like to buy ephemera & you are one of only 2 channels I have found that handmakes epehmera!
Thank you so much, you're very kind! I do love making my own ephemera.
I love these little birds. I have finished my Christmas cards, but will be starting Valentines cards soon. I can see these little birds all over the Valentines that will be going to a personal care home to cheer up the residents. I sent over 50 Thanksgiving and Christmas cards, and will be making that many Valentines. These little happy birds will cause lots of smiles I am sure. Thanks for sharing.
Oh, Sybil, what a lovely idea! The little bird could be perching on top of a cut-out heart with ribbon around it - yes, what smiles that will bring to those dear faces! Thank you so much for doing such a lovely project, I'm really honored that you'd consider this as part of your plan. Thank you!
Great valentines idea 💕🩷
What a lovely thing to do! I'm sure the residents are really happy when they receive on of your cards, & it makes them feel really special! 😊❤
So cute!
Thank you so much! I really had fun with these!
These birds are so stinky cute. I will be making these,
I know, right? They're a little bit silly, but so much fun. Thanks so much for watching, Jane!
So So Cute!! Thank you❤
You're so kind, Carletta, thank you!
I want to say Merry Christmas to all you crafters watching hope it's a Merry one❤❤❤
And everyone, I know, says Merry Christmas right back to you, Becky! Thank you!
Hello and Merry Christmas I started watching you back when and I got started making birds with you becuz of you so thank you. Sewed many❤❤❤❤
Becky, I really appreciate your being here with me! Thank you and enjoy all your dear little birds!
These are really clever and cute. I love the hats on the birds. Grew up in St. Louis. I had to wear jeans under my dress on cold days at school. Hated it! I remember head scarves, and not fondly. I think I had a tie under the chin knotted thing to keep my ears warm, at one point. At any rate, I’ve enjoyed your videos this season. Thank you for doing them. Have a Happy Holiday! Merry Christmas! (I love those birds)
Thanks so much, Susan! Fun (if unfashionable!) memories for us cold--weather kids!
Thank you. I enjoyed your whimsical birds… ❤
Thanks, Kristin, I really have fun with them and hope you do as well!
More of your adorable Whimsical Birds --- Awesome! 🎉🎉😊 I have been loving your Christmas special ideas. I am marking in my planner that in June and July I am going to do Christmas cards, tags, and a Christmas journal for next year. I might even make a couple of the journals to give to family members. Christmas. Time got away from me this year.. I need to get busy wrapping and a little more shopping today as Christmas is blasting toward us at lightning speed. May you have a wonderful Christmas and build warm memories with friends and family. Merry Christmas.😊❤
Same birds, just with a touch of Christmas and winter! And I bet you and your friends will have a terrific time doing make-ahead holiday crafting next year! Thanks so much, I really appreciate all the support you've shown me by watching this year!
