I hope you enjoy this long and chatty junk journal made out of and old book tutorial. This book was literally headed to the trash at my local Friends of the Library Used Bookstore. So it was fun to breathe new life into the cover and upcycle it into a creative style junk journal. I also show how to make easy no sew journal pockets, how to seal a journal cover, how to apply metal hardware, and how I create a rounded lace spine.
I have an easy, removable journal charm tutorial coming very soon! Be sure to save this video to come right back to where we leave off🍄
If you have any questions please leave them in the comments below:)
I created this handmade, upcycled journal from and old book to use as my new personal junk journal. The theme is butterflies and mushrooms. The pages are all vintage except the cardstock I used to create pockets🍄

This was right up my alley construction wise, I love trying not to fuss measure if I can get away with it!
How happy I am to have found your site..Amanita stop me every time..LOL..I am thrilled to see a REAL junk journal..no "kits" no overzelous use of ribbons , lace and jewels..Everyone has an individual style but after a while kits all look the same..
Yay..for white backed pages 😄..I am definately subscribing today..Many thanks for "the real deal".💚
Oh my goodness thank you so much!! This comment was so nice, totally made my day! Thanks for watching 😄
I completely agree! I've just discovered her!
I've just subscribed!! I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT YOUR VIDEO!!!! GORGEOUS JOURNAL! This is what a junk journal means to me.😊
I'm attracted to this hobby of junk journaling and watching how to's to see if it's something I could do. You've answered a lot of questions I had. Great video!
Me too. I've bought and collected a ton of stuff but can't seem to get started. Most crafty things I wouldn't want in my house but I really like the junk journals and can see personalizing them to various people for gifts. Now to just get started!
This is one of the best and simplest tutorials I have ever seen. Thank you.
New subscriber here❤ Aloha from Hawaii 🌺 I love your videos, easy to follow, your voice is soo clear and relaxing. Thank you for sharing! Now, I'm on to watching more of your videos ❤
I really enjoyed this demonstration. I have the same mushroom postcard book and I just love it! Glad I found your channel.
Beautiful!! I am excited about starting a journal like this one!!! Thank you for the inspiration!!!
Hello there, I found your channel, and I enjoyed your explanation of your process of creating your journal. You really get your hands into it by massaging in the Hodge Podge into your spine and cover. Loved everything about it. Thank you for sharing.
I really enjoyed your tutorial and love your journaling.
I love the way you did the spine! Thanks for showing your process!! Very inspiring!! ❤❤
Thank you so much for watching and for the kind words:))
I agree, it made it seem doable.
I do the same for punching the spine and signatures but I always mess up the signatures 😂. Love your work. I just found your channel so definitely going to be watching.
I love your journal style! It is simle and beautiful. I too hesitate to use a sewing machine so it is nice to see a beautiful journal that doesn't use machine stitching.
im so happy you liked it!! I agree, I tend to shy away from sewing machines for my journal process, I think it looks beautiful, its just not for me:))
I love how quickly the cover went! The entire thing went so fast with your editing, I subscribed immediately ❤
Just found your channel. How fun! I absolutely love your journal! Such a wide variety of papers but they all fit together seamlessly
thank you so much! I appreciate the kind comment:))
This is a lovely, no-nonsense concise tutorial. Thank you!
Everything you create is magical!
Oh friend thank youuuuu🫶🏽
Thank you for clear instruction!!!! ❤
Thank you. So many great ideas and how-tos
Oh I love the tape idea for holding the thread end
New subscriber, I love the use of an old book, it is beautiful. I have been junk journaling for about 4 years, and love learning new ways to make journals more interesting. Your instructions were easy to follow, and I love the way you made the tutorial easy to understand. Thank you from a Tennessee Country 81 year old lady.😘😘😘
aww thank you!! I very much appreciate your very kind comment🥰 We are currently floating away in really intense rain in Southern California lol
Wonderful tutorial. Love the view master.
I really enjoyed this tutorial and thank you for sharing. 😊
Gorgeous journal. I love your vintage collection of papers and workbooks. Perfect project.
Thank you so much! I love using vintage and used books, makes me so happy🍄🫶🏽🦋
I love this tutorial and your style so much!! I’m planning to do this for my first book made like yours. I think I need to order that mushroom postcard book too!
😂❤
Thank you so much. I thoroughly enjoyed your tutorial. I am thinking of doing one for each of my granddaughters since they have stared having their families now. I believe these will be really nice to put snapshots of their little families as they grow and say a few words to mark the occasions.
oh I love hearing that!! What a wonderful gift that will be:))
Thank you for making the process so easy. I tend to over think a lot of the time. You're was simple yet so beautiful. Thank you for the tips. You got yourself a new subscriber.
Awesome techniques. Thanks for sharing.
I enjoyed every minute! Had to subscribe! Super cute journal!! Thanks so much for sharing!
You are so kind! Thank you!!
Thanks I needed this!
Great tutorial. Thank❤ you so much for sharing this with us
Thank you for sharing this process, it turned up so lovely and you brought modpodge into my life again 😄 and fabritac (bad spelling) awesome glue. So glad that you turned up on YT 🥰 hugs Pea' ❤
aww thank you!! I appreciate you watching!!
Wow that was so fun to watch!!!!❤
That was fun
Just found your channel and watched the whole tutorial! Loved the process!
Awesome! Thank you so much for watching🫶🏽🍄🦋
I loved this. You area fabulous teacher
Just found your site and enjoyed what I saw. I’ve made a few journals but not many with hard covers. With all the supplies I’ve collected I still struggle making a large journal. Getting all the supplies together is the hardest for me unless I have a theme . Love your relaxed style in this one. Newly subscribed.
thank you so much Patricia! SO kind of you to subscribe, I very much appreciate it!!
loved watching your video
That was great! Thanks for sharing. I’ve picked up lots of tips.
Wonderful to hear and thank you for watching!!
You’re video just popped up, and I’m glad I watched it! My daughter once told me that I get stuck because I want everything to look perfect from the first try. She said I was looking at the finished products by other artists, and wasn’t realizing the process it takes to get there. When you were doing the cover, you mentioned basically the same thing! Thanks for sharing that! Your cover was beautiful! 👍🏻😊
Your daughter is so very wise!! How lucky you are:)) Yes, I accepted long ago that my journals would never be "perfect." soon after that I began to find so much beauty bin imperfection, because it wasn't imperfect, it was just my style, and im so content in that❤ Ive come to love wrinkled fabric, torn edges, and crooked lines, its carisma!!
It wasn't a long video, (not even 30 minutes) and is very informative and fun to watch. Thank you for making it and posting it. I have not yet made a junk journal, I'm watching how toos for now. I Loved the subject of this journal and would love to see a completed flip through of it.
I appreciate you watching 😄❤️🫶🏽
Love this journal!!
I followed your tutorial step-by-step the only issues I had was making the card stock pockets my paper started to be wavy I had to put them underneath something until the paper was dry to straighten them out my book was bigger than my card stock so I had to start all over again with another board a smaller one. But all in all it was a very good tutorial thank you very much for sharing
New subscriber. I very much enjoyed your video. Will continue to watch. Some good ideas. Thank you for the time you out into your videos.
Stunning!
Thank you so much Mary:)
THANK YOU! What an amazing video for me, a complete newbie, still nervous, but so excited to make my first junkjournal from scratch. I have only seen poeple use crocodile big bite etc and I cannot find it in my country so far and now I see what I CAN use so I can actually start making my covers and signatures. You made such a beautiful book! 💕💕💕 love from Sweden
oh wonderful!! Im so so happy this is helpful to you!! Thanks for watching ☺
I enjoyed this video, very informative!
The Viewmaster tab is FANTASTIC
Thank you!! My fave too!
Just wow..love your channel I am new to you channel but so love your channel
First time seeing your channel every month and I’d love your junk journal. Thank you.
aww thanks for watching!!
I love what you did with this journal! And thanks for going from beginning to end. I've only made one journal, & I did use Modge Podge. But now I'm making "Envelope Notebooks" (Luise Heinzel on YT). I missed last Christmas, but I'm trying for this Christmas, now. I'm making a lot of them because I want everyone in the family to have one! (I've done big projects in the past, but I think this is the biggest!!) They're 3x7", so they're tiny & cute!!
I loved the whole tutorial! It was fantastic! Thanks for sharing! ♥️
I absolutely love your journal. It's beautiful. I watched the whole thing. Those butterflies are so pretty.
Thank you so much, I appreciate that!!
Just beautiful ❤
So very kind! thank you!
I don't understand how anyone could ever throw away a book! 🤦🏽♀️ I just took a truckload of books from my grandparents house. My sister said to take them to goodwill... no way. There are books from the late 1800's in there, and as 'new' as the late 1980's. There were books published from 1901-1926 and books that my grandfather had when he was in elementary school in Scotland. Some of them, I know I absolutely won't be able to tear apart for journaling... but throwing out a book seems so absurd to me. 🥺
I absolutely agree with you😃
My uncle has a small, successful publishing company and he throws out a warehouse full of books each year!
@@D_Parks nooooooooooooooo!! 🤦🏽♀️🥺
I always stand up for books.
I agree with you! Books from my ancestors I would move. I have family members that throw all that away
so cute! love this journal!
Thank you so much🍄🫶🏽🦋
Love this process!
Thank you so much!!
Supper helpful! Thank you!
Beautiful book and very helpful tutorial - thank you for sharing!!
I love this! Very inspiring
Thank you so much!!
Very cute journal. Love your ideas! I have subscribed! ❤
Love your tutorial ❤️
So many good ideas here; the template used only for cover makes sense and I like how you used signatures to mark where binding will go. Yes, I don't like sewing in, I've pricked my fingers a few times (from being impatient). Your tutorials are always interesting, easy to follow and I love your explanations too, so thank you.
I just found your channel I loved this informative video.
I found them! Yay So gorgeous and just so you know, the video was wonderful! Not too long at all because you kept moving. Love your videos!
Such a clear tutorial of a beautiful journal! I’ve been collecting supplies for months, made lots of tags, pockets, envelopes etc. just haven’t put a book together because it seems intimidating. Both the stitching it in and making it look complementary … but this video makes it seem manageable and I’m go to try today! 🫣❤
Thank you so much!! What a lovely comment♥️🫶🏽 I’m so so happy that the tutorial was informative and helpful 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 thanks for watching 🍄
I finally might try this type,
It was fun to watch this video all the way through!🎉
thank you so much I appreciate that:))

It's taken me AGES to get over the idea of "wrecking" books😮😬 ... but I did and I tried this. It was a bit fussy but I got through it!!! 🎉 This has inspired me to do another one. I LOVE all things mushroom 🍄 too 😉😉
Im so happy you did it and so happy you enjoyed the process!!! Mushrooms are so inspiring aren't they??🍄❤

Just found you tonight. I love your process, your speed and especially your voice. I have that mushroom fabric as well and may use some to make my daughter a journal. Hobby Lobby has a mushroom fabric too...check it out. I am now going to be on the hunt for view finder discs! Thanks for sharing.🤓
Oh thank you so much!! I’m always on the hunt for mushroom fabric🍄 They actually sell viewmasters at target😃 they aren’t vintage, but super fun and accessible 🫶🏽
Beautiful

Love the journal!! Have you ever repurposed a book into a journal or art journal without gutting the pages??
Turned out so so pretty ❤
Thank you so much!!!
this is awesome i bought a journal, it came with zero pockets and about 3 pieces of ephemera. that started me down the rabbit hole of collecting things. :) I need organizing help lol.!
Where are you picking up all these vintage things you’re using? I stayed until the end because I just had to see it. ❤❤❤
