i love how diy this is. i feel like sometimes the tn community can get so caught up in the consumerism and cool fun things you can buy. but i feel it's so much more personal when we use what we already have and make something entirely personal and unique!
Loved watching you make this TN and now you have jazzed it up with your hacks and I really like it. This is the beauty of TN's and when you make it yourself it becomes your daily life inside that leather. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for your heartfelt appreciation Pamee! It really is rewarding to see how something you use every day evolves over time! Thanks for being here with me to see it all unfold! :)
Lovely idea with the pressed penny!! 😍👌🏻 I’ll have to try it with my “Branson’s luckiest penny” that my son brought me from his vacation. I’ve just been clipping it in my wallet for luck. 🍀😜
Thank you for the great tutorial on how to make a pen loop and file folder dashboard. I am not a crafty person, but this was super easy, and much cheaper than buying one! I have a high powered stapler so I used that instead of the glue. Thanks again!!
The stapler sounds like it will work super well! If you dont want the staples to rub on the other papers you could also cover them with washi tape :) good luck!
I always love your videos and how inspiring they are. I feel like I’m back at the art university. 😊 thank you for this cool vid and I love your pressed penny modification. I remember them from my childhood also.
Oh Gosh... I just screenshotted EVERY single step of the DIY (folder) process PLUS added a note to every single one, so I won't make any mistakes - it took me about 1 1/2 HOURS 😂 Going to see now how many Screenshots I've took, I guess it's been around 30 😂 Because it turned out SO GREAT (❤) I've wanted to have it on my phone to make sure I won't forget about it and give it a try 🥰 TOTALLY forgot that there are plenty of options to download a video from RUclips 😅 Well... I'm going to put all of them in an extra folder on my phone 😅 Your DIY charm ALSO turned out AMAZING... I'm thinking about what things I could add onto that piece of leather... It's amazing, there are SO many options! ❤ I hope that i'm going to find that kind of file card you were using for the folder 🙏🏼 But I'm QUITE sure that I've seen them before if they're the type of cards you "hang" into the drawers of those office cabinet towers... I just have to find the German name for them 😅 NEVER used one of these! 🤭 Thanks SO much for sharing this! 🙏🏼 I can't wait to watch more videos from you / follow -and check out your on Instagram (it'd be awesone if you also sharing your awesome ideas on Insta as well since i'm mostly there for any planner-/ journal related things 🤗) BTW: It is SO nice to listen to you! Your voice is beautiful and you sound so happy & ambitious, it was so fun to watch! 🥰 Have to send this video to my friend now; she hates those LT1917 self-adhesive pen-loops that are actually quite handy for any TN's without a pen loop & FINALLY they offer a "XL" version of them since the basic ones are quite tiny... I bet she's going to love the folder as much as I do! 🥰 Having that leather pen loop attached to it is not only SO handy it also looks so lovely & I like that NOBODY has got the exact same one... 🥰 Alright... my comment has become HUGE 🤭 I hope that you are doing well 🤗 xx Mia
Oh my gosh, mia! Thank you so much for your super thoughtful comment! I'm so glad you feel inspired to take on the folder project! I wish your friend luck on making her own as well! I'd like to be more present on insta! Thanks for the prompting! As it is right now, I'm hardly there at all 😆
You spotted It! That's right :) I just glued it into the inside cover since that book didn't have a pocket there! Thanks for asking and I hope that helps!
I used a hanging file folder from the thrift store for the folder. And the leather piece was a scrap I salvaged from an old purse I used to have, again that I thrifted years ago. I'm sure you could find a leather wallet at the thrift store to cut apart :) it may take some time to find the pieces thrifting but I find the thrill of the hunt rewarding! Good luck!
being an artist hearing you tell people to go to the art section of the bookstores to find books to cut up hurts my heart HAHAHA but that just asshole me talking bc anything to get people to buy artbooks >:)

LOVE pressed pennies! What a great use!
Thanks! I love them too, and I'm so glad they can finally get a home outside of my keep-sake box XD
Inspired me to make my own collage folder! Thank you 😊

Yay! That sounds like a great idea! Then you'll get to see it all the time! How cool :)
One of the best TN videos I’ve watched! Thank you!
Thanks! I'm so glad you liked it! I wish you luck if you choose to make any of these :)
Love all, especially those rustic paperclips! And that pouch on top isn't shabby either.
I'm so glad you love them Franci! I have a video on that wool pen pouch on top of you want to see that too ;)
@@ElderberrySprout definitely will be checking it out :D
You should hammer the copper wire paper clip (gently) when you are done. That will “work hardened” the copper so it more sturdy.
I love this idea! I have an anvil now so I can do that! Thanks for the inspiration!

Great ideas and love the video!
Thanks Joyce for watching :)
Loved this
I'm so glad!
Great and useful video ! Thanks !
@izopas I'm so glad you enjoyed! I'd love to hear about it if you do any of these!
Fantastico!
Fantastic video - I loved your hacks. At 11:18, I got a glimpse of a pretty envelope with sticky notes on it. How is it attached to your TN?
Okay, I kept watching the video in slow motion and I see now that it's attached to your hard cover notebook.
You spotted It! That's right :) I just glued it into the inside cover since that book didn't have a pocket there! Thanks for asking and I hope that helps!
I love the unicorn!! Where is it from?
I found the clip on ebay! I've also seen some cool owl ones there!
😍😍😍...great! I really would try..but what kind of paper should i use for my folder and where to buy it...as same as the leather piece ?
I used a hanging file folder from the thrift store for the folder. And the leather piece was a scrap I salvaged from an old purse I used to have, again that I thrifted years ago. I'm sure you could find a leather wallet at the thrift store to cut apart :) it may take some time to find the pieces thrifting but I find the thrill of the hunt rewarding! Good luck!
Thank you for kindly answering me 🌼😍🤗
Of course! I hope the info helps Charo!
What material is the pen loop out of?
A leather scrap I got second-hand!
being an artist hearing you tell people to go to the art section of the bookstores to find books to cut up hurts my heart HAHAHA
but that just asshole me talking bc anything to get people to buy artbooks >:)
hahaha I hear you there! I try to get beat up books if I plan to use them for collage. I have to amp myself up before I to tear into any book lol
