    I stumbled across the prior video, so naturally subscribed. I am a crafter, but I’ve never made a junk journal. However I must admit that I’m inspired. In October I started a series of cross stitch pieces that I thought I would put in a book rather than framing them. I think this would be a perfect thing to do for them. Perhaps breaking into chapters for each piece. I will have to be a bit industrious and see if any used book stores are open at this time to get some materials. I have a very old dictionary that is literally falling apart that I’ve saved from the trash for years. Now I’m glad I did. Thank you for the inspiration and guidance. I was a card maker and scrapbooked for years so I have lots of stamps and inks, and recently I purchased a set of paints for fabrics. This will be a multi craft project. Looking forward to gathering material and the creative process.

    I can still have some guilt feelings when I tear out a page of a book, but then I look at how you do it and I think it is OK. I am using your tips and philosophy now to put together my new journal and it is so satisfying!

    I love how you preserve paper with your various foldings! I tried some different folds and tucks today when I made a junk journal with the junk mail that came yesterday. It turned out terrific! When I choose book pages I try not to think to deeply about what I choose, because I enjoy the surprise “journal prompt” when I write in my journal. I also don’t worry about direction of text or music, and try to use it as an artistic statement rather than a written one. Sometimes the hardest thing to do is “be random.”

    I'm finding it quite interesting that you start with the cover. It's the final thing in my process. I usually don't know in advance how many signatures it will contain at the start The one I'm working on now, I quit making signatures when I used up all the material I pulled for the pages. That left me with 9 signatures, creating 180 pages. I decided to space the sewing line for each signature at 1/4" apart. That way there's a lot of room for expansion as the journal fills up with pockets, envelopes and ephemera. So now that I've sewn each signature to heavy card stock, I know my spine has to be 4". The largest page sticks out 6.5" so the front and back need to be slightly wider. *Now* I can make the hard covers and end-papers. Once I do that, then the fun of playing inside can begin. 🙂 I haven't decided if I'm going to do that or sell it so someone else can have that joy.

    • @joiedefi
      @joiedefi  3 года назад

      Pretty much everything in a magazine or book page can be ripped up and played with; the golden rule is that you can't make a copy of it. So if you have a pretty page in a book or magazine you can use it in your project, and you can sell that project, but you cannot make a copy of it. So you can't make a collage/Masterboard and photocopy or scan it. If a book is so old that it's out of copyright then you are ok...but still be careful as some titles of books are still trademarked, even though the book is out of copyright. An example of this is "Alice in Wonderland". I understand that Disney owns the trademark and so you can't use those words or the characters in any projects or items that you sell. Simple isn't it 🤣 Let me know if I can help...
