WOW...it never occurred to me that a sewing machine would be a tool for a junk journal. I'm not even sure i understand what a junk journal is for...but I really enjoy watching these videos of them, so perhaps because they make people happy is the function??. Thank you for sharing yours - they are very beautiful 💕
Thank you Barbara! I’ve been following you and Luisa for a couple of years. Haven’t made a journal yet but enjoy watching you create yours. I’ve been inching toward making a journal and your video on the essentials is so informative. Thank you so much for your insight.
Go for it! Making journals is fun and relaxing all at the same time! You won't regret it! 😃
Lol. Now I don’t feel so alone. I’m the same. I’ve made a gazillion journals in my head & I have started making some pieces, but haven’t yet made a journal. Like you, I’m sneaking up on it 😊
Lol I followed for nearly 4 years before I made a journal and now I can't stop 😄. You'll love it, just do it in your style. Have fun 😁
Barbara, about the tearing papers with a ruler, ionic made a deckled edge tearing Cutter similar to the straight lines papaer cutter but with deckled edge .
Very useful video thank you! I priced the tearing rulers and they are $20 Australian dollars. I took a 50c plastic ruler and cut the edge with my big scissors varying the edge. It works brilliantly!
Thank you for sharing your favorites, Barbara. 🙂❤️
Barbara: I love these reminder videos. Anyway that’s what I call them. Thank you so much for it. Carol from California
I would suggest that with the needle threader clamping the other side so it doesn’t get warped by the clamp
I love seeing your Journals as you’re flipping through looking for something special. I enjoy seeing how things really make a difference in your Journals. Like pockets, Belly Bands, clusters, sewing. I love sewing things on a Journal page. Or making a tag fancier. Some day I’m gonna make myself a little book to keep needles and thread in. I forget about it until I see yours. Thanks for sharing your favorites. ♥️♥️♥️
The little book for needles is so sweet. And seeing your journals again was such a treat. Very useful video, because is really about the basics and the quality of the supplies, which is essential. One of my favourite tools are the tweezers (because are so helpful) - and even for these little things the quality is important. Thank you!
Yes, tweezers should have gotten an honorable mention 😊
You can take a plastic ruler and ding up the edge to get a rough edge. Using a brick or something hard.
Oh the jean pocket!
Thank you so much for this video, Barbara. I've never bought Art Glitter Glue because I thought there was glitter in it.
This is a very informative video.Thanks for explaining some of your favourite tools. 🇨🇦
I also love the effervescent small one too❤
I love knowing your go-to tools! TFS ❤
I was so happy to realize I have almost all the tools you mentioned! I did learn some great ways to use the threads and fabric. I have anabindance of quilting scraps that I think will be great for so many of the projects you described. I have not made a fabric journal cover, but I think I'm ready to try it. I think the paper bag is the perfect foundation. I'd see fabric covers using cereal boxes and chip board, but I don't like the really stiff with the soft. Another project to add to my to-do list. Thanks for sharing your expertise.❤❤❤
Thank you for sharing your essential supplies with us
😊😊
Beautiful examples!!!
My stencils are store similarly - all in one "Iris" scrapbook paper bin, but it is bursting at the seams right now. I've seen people put them in binders, but I don't think that would work for me. So, I go through them every time I want to find something different. I may try putting similar ones in manila folders inside the bin. Maybe that would help organize a little better. Anyway, loved the video. I've been paper crafting since 2017, but I just made my first ever junk journal!
Art Glitter is the name of the company. They make incredible glitter. Designer Dries Clear is the name of the glue. I've been using both of them for probably 15 years or more. I love your essentials list.
You're my favorite for journals,I've made some like yours
Aaaaw thank you! ❤️
Great list and a nice look over your work which is so inspiring ❤
Loved every minute of this video!!!
Barbara, love seeing in your journals the past things you made. I remember watching all those videos with you making all those things. TFS! Very informative video! ❤
Thank you for a very informative tutorial😊
You capture the best sounds. That makes me happy. ❤️
So interesting seeing how much your style has changed over time. And I think my favourite of all your favourites is your needle booklet. It’s so cute & useful. I keep meaning to make myself one & make some embellishment & stencil folders. One day 🤷♀️ 🧵 🪡
Thank you, Barbara, for such a valuable video. I particularly enjoyed seeing examples in your journals. You are very good with the sewing machine, I’m still perfecting that! Do you still make splotches with TH stains?! I thought that was so clever & fun! When you were showing all your examples of black ink, mostly numbers, it reminded me of one of your other videos you did on numbers, cutting them out of magazines, etc. I really took that to heart & cut for days! I doubt I’ll ever run out of numbers, I have big ones, little ones, TH paper, advertisements… I always think of you when I use them!! Hope you had a nice Easter! Erica❤
Thanks for all your tips & inspiration!!! Thanks for the extensive playlist below. I want to watch them all. Lol
I have A5, A4 & A3 folders with plastic sleeves to keep my different-sized stencils (in theory - in practice I have to actually move most of them into their folders as I’m a terrible stencil hoarder lol) & little photo albums for small die cutters, although they don’t work as well as the stencil sleeves. You could probably make yourself some great stencil folders of different sizes. If you use different sized key rings instead of a pre-made ring binder like you used for Dephemerember, you can make folders that will be a lot easier to wrangle than the ones that come with smaller rings. The key rings come in a heap of different sizes & you can get some really big ones. You only have to wrestle the plastic sleeves on the key rings once, since you can just take the stencils out & leave the sleeves in place, so buying the ones that don’t click open but have 2-3 layers of metal isn’t a problem. Then it’s just a matter of gluing a sturdy strip of chipboard or something to hold the key rings in place against the spine, or you could hand-sew them onto the spine using a sturdy thread. And since you’re super organised, you could stencil a bit of the pattern on a page to keep inside the sleeve so you know what goes where, or label them. And you could stencil a sample of each on your inside cover or make some index sheets so you don’t have to flip through the whole book every time you want to find a particular stencil. In my head I do organised, it just doesn’t tend to translate to real life …/sigh. Hopefully you make a stencil folder & can inspire me to get mine organised! 😁
Thanks for this! I actually have a video coming soon about stencil organizing and my struggles that go with it 😬❤️
@@49dragonflies Struggles we can all relate to lol. Look forward to it 😁
Thank you for sharing your junk journal supplies you use , opinions and why. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
What a great video.... I'd call it the wishlist of all wishlists.... Totally drooling over here and putting a incremental plan in place to slowly acquire what I can for crafting. Thank you.
PS I love how you store your needles and your stencils that is truly inspiring definitely organization as supplies come into the house is something key for sure.
WOW Barbra!!!!! so helpful!!!!! and so 😯 at the same time!..... I'm so behind with my essentials!!!!! (no wonder I'm watching more than creating!!!!!) - TFS, love from 💚💛,🐝
thank you very much, it's very interesting
Love it
Very helpful tips hun Ty
Bingo about the sawing machine. Definitely !
Love, love, love your journal. ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
I store my stencils in... Hmm, not sure what they're called... Clearfiles? Books of clear plastic sleeves. You can get them in different sizes. I put in a piece of light card to give the stencil a firm base and little more protection. Works well. 😊
Thanks! The issue is the very different sizes of stencils.
@@49dragonflies They go up to A3. Display books is the right name for them. Tut, my memory! 😊🦋
Thank you for sharing. 🌹
They actually do ship art glitter glue during wintertime if you live in warmer climates. I live in California and can get it any time. 😊👍
Love your video, thanks! Just an idea: I organize my stencils in presentation books. They come in different sizes with black paper in each clear sleeve which is convenient to have two stencils by sleeve and see the patterns very well.
Hi Barbara - thanks for sharing. Very helpful.
How about you showing us how to make a journal true to Junk Journal style from " Junk " or recycled stuff and not using any digitals at all ...
What is the difference between a mask and a stencil? My stencils are stored on jump rings by style and hang off a weird floor lamp I have should have waited to end to post! Thanks for the explanation.
You're so organized!!! Your stencil drawer probably really bugs you. Maybe you could use a binder with plastic sleeves. A standard 8 1/2 x 11 could work for a lot of them, and the larger ones could stay in your drawer.
Thanks! I have a video coming up 😊
Hello Barbara I would like to share my storage of my stencils maybe it'll help you. I use a 3-inch three ring binder and Page protectors with a piece of colored copy paper or colored cardstock so I can slip one on each side of the cardstock in one page protector protector. I keep it on a shelf like a book and when I need one I could just thumb through the pages and find what I need. I hope this is helpful love ya 😘😘
Thank you for sharing! ❤️
Thanks for sharing this with us! 😊
Gracias Barbara, por compartir, un abrazo fuerte desde Catalunya !!!!!
Enjoyed your essentials video. I wanted to experiment with something new to me. I bought some clear embossing powder and 2 embossing ink pens. I don't have a heating tool, but I do have a hair blower. Well, it did not work. I tried again, but then the blower turned off? Didn't work again. So, now I may have to invest on a heating tool. Thank you for sharing your video.
Yes, normal hair blow dryers don’t get hot enough for embossing…😬
❤ this is a very helpful and inspiring video sweetie ❤ and so lovely to see some journals froma while ago too. 😊
Dear Barbara hi! I loved your most essentials video and flipping through your journals for all the lovely elements!❤❤❤ Regarding the organization of your stencils, and since i'm a stencil junkie too 😁😁😁😁, i have found a way that somehow helps me from an old video of the channel "let's get inkie" (the host is so sweet too!), where she uses a folder/binder with plastic A4 cases (like those used for keeping presentations) for storing stencils by category, for example, all letters and numerics together or in sequential cases, small flowers, large flowers, leafs, stars, hearts, abstract designs etc. The nice thing with that is that you can choose your own categories and make them as detailed or not as you wish in reference with your own stencils. Furthermore, you can divide small and large stencils to different binders or different categories to different binders. I have followed that organization, and it really helped me as i can flip through the binder to find the stencil that i need. The only disadvantage that i have found is that when you buy new stencils, you might not have enough space to put them in your binder at the right place, so you might need to move things around. Of course, this could be addressed by using binders that you can add A4 plastic cases in between. The one that i used is pre-set. Hope this idea will help you too. Sweet greetings from Athens, Elena 😘😘😘😘
Thanks sweetie! I actually don’t want a binder system. I have a video about this coming up next week 😊❤️
❤❤❤
🙋🏼♀️Barbara
Oh gosh this is absolutely gorgeous love them all
So clever
So good to explain the tools
Cheers 🇦🇺🦘👑
What a great list! And I have most of the items on it. Now, if I could just perfect that paper bag cover. 😂 I will be trying again. It’s my favorite kind. Hugs ❤️🤗
You got this! 💪🏼😊❤️
Die ist aber schick 🎉 black Magic ❤❤❤❤
A very helpful video.
It's a great heavy duty machine, wishing I'd gone for a denim one. SO HAPPY I have that guillotine now after years of dodgy but expensive trimmers! It's awesome! Lol I agree with all of these (slightly different on the glues, I like cosmic shimmer acrylic, and it doesn't shimmer lol) they're things we can't make ourselves and more essential than a lot of fancier supplies. Yes, just 'needle threader'. I hang my stencils on hooks from a shelf now, it made a HUGE difference. I haven't converted my heat tool yet 🙈. Great list! Sounds like you have cold sweetie, hope you're feeling better🤗🤗🤗. Tfs and have a great day 💖💖💖
Thank you sweetie! I’m all better! 😊❤️
Awesome XXX
The needle book is so… cute. I need a needle threader as well due my tremors. I’m going to go look to see if you have a video on the needle book.
I can't do without a needle threader either! 😊🧡💚🤎
The needle book was a gift…
I love this stuff!! ...seeing what other JJ'ers like to use.
So baby girl, I'm not gonna be MomK from Joshua Tree anymore! I'm gonna be MomK from Indiana!! My son and I are DONE with California and have set our moving date for May 31st! I'd really hoped that at some point I could buy you a cup of tea at the little place at the corner, but *sigh* 😔, looks like not. Love you, angel, 🤗❤️🌵❤️🤗
Hey MomK, you will always be my MomK from Joshua Tree, no matter where you live! 😊 I wish you a smooth move! ❤️
Such a great supply video. I've now bought a crop-o-dile, and I love it! Thinking of buying a paper trimmer, but I need to have a larger place to craft (planning stages), so it was great to see yours properly. And that there's no need to buy a large one. I wonder what the hole size for the punch that matches hole reinforces is? In centimeters/milimeters, if you know... That's a bit of a problem, I find, when you need to cut several times to get a hole large enough for the reinforcement. Good to know about the heat tool too. I've seen you use it, of course, but any way. Great video! 😊
Thanks. The holes are 3 and 5 mm
precioso video y muy didáctico, me encantan tus trabajos, tengo una duda con una página 12 x 12, que quiero usar, y es que el dibujo está en el centro, al doblarlo para hacer la portada, se queda en el lomo, y no sé como utilizarlo, alguna idea que me puedas dar?
❤
Thank you for sharing. I love the abundance of creativity. So many unique ideas on each page. I am learning so much. Can I ask how you add fabric to your pages and journal covers? I’m afraid to ruin something if the glue seeps through. Is this a needless concern? Tia!
Thanks! I thin down PVA glue with a little bit of water and brush it on the surface to add the fabric on. Works like a charm 😊
j adorrrrre je suis acroc de junk journal
I love seeing your work! Thank you for this video! I have a question about the art glitter glue-does it have a strong smell? I use fabri-tac but whew the smell. lol Thanks!
Thanks fully the art glitter glue does not have a strong smell.
I really love how sewing add charater to simple paper but too bad i don't have a space for a sewing machine
There are really small ones you could put away when you don’t use it.
@49dragonflies I do have a small one but not even have a space to use it and now it's under my bed forever😭
I love all your videos, so fun and informative. I have not heard you speak on the bias and grain of paper. Can you tell me if you take that into consideration yourself when making journal pages? If so what would the concern be? I have not heard to much about it, only one person that seems to pay attention to that aspect of paper. being a quilter in the past we had to consider it but I did not know that it was a thing with paper. Thank You
I just use regular copy paper for my coffee dryer papers for journals.
Does the blade n the paper trimmer ever get dull?
My Fiscars one did all the time…
Hi Barbara. Thank you so much for sharing your expert and honest opinions with us all. I find it very helpful - being a fervent Junk Journal junior - on a budget. 😊 It's very positive to hear what might be worth saving for, and investing in. Which brings me to one piece of kit that I know is not exactly essential, but lovely to have - and that is a die-cutter/embossing machine. I've been looking at a lot of different options on line, and am quite confused. If I'm starting out, should I focus on just a die-cutting machine? And if so, is it false economy to get a small one as I've noticed that some dies won't fit in certain models. Or would you recommend saving up for something bigger that has both functions? So many questions!! Maybe, this could be a topic for another video offering your very valued guidance. With best regards as always, from NZ. 🧡💚🤎
Thank you! I’m no expert for those machines. I have always only had my Sizzix Foldaway die cut machine and I’m very happy with it. Maybe you could get a used one. Die cut machines also emboss- you just use an embossing folder instead of the dies, so it’s just one machine that does it all! 😊. I would get a regular size one instead of first buying a small one and then having to buy the big one anyway because you want to use bigger dies/embossing folders.
@@49dragonflies Dear Barbara - thank you sooooooo much for taking the time to reply with such detail. I've learnt a lot already. For example, I never knew that any of the machines I've been looking at could perform both functions! I just assumed that if the title said 'die-cutting' machine, it only did that!! 🙄 And yes, with this in mind, buying a model that takes regular folders would be most sensible. Yay!!! Now I can look again - with this new knowledge. Thank you. 🧡💚🤎
I’m going to chime in on this. As a past Stampin up demonstrator, I’ve had both the big and the large machine. I sold my larger machine based on small space. So I didn’t need two and I opted for the smaller. I cut my larger embossing folders down to fit and it didn’t kill my soul. I will make do with my die cuts that fit.
I’ve always been the type that has to have all the stuff. I’m still a lot like that but have adjusted my needs to reflect a need for minimalism due to living in a travel trailer. Organization helps me to be able to horde a bit more 😉.
@@theresaconway-hayes Thank you for your input. 😊 I'm still a relative newbie in the JJ world as I only started about a year and a half ago. And, at the moment, it's an unpaid hobby - although I hope that may change one day. I'm also quite cautious with my purchases. I want to 'get going' with lots of different ideas, but I don't want to spend money on an item that is unsuitable or under utilised. So, I try to research and think about my needs - what I would like, and what will (hopefully) work. I had been looking at small machines - partly because I make a lot of small journals to give away as gifts, but I don't want to find myself limited later. Soooo, I think it's back to the drawing board - armed with all the good information and advice I have now received. 👍👍🧡💚🤎
❤️❄️⛄️🇨🇦
Den Kleber kannte ich auch noch nicht :) ❤ riecht der gut?
Hat keinen starken Geruch 😊
They are called needle threaders.
Why does this video speed up then slows to normal????
Not sure what you mean. When I play it, it’s normal speed throughout….
Originally it was developed to glue glitter, so the name is perfect. The fact that we use it for gluing other things does not warrent a reason to change its name.
❤
