I think you're right that making a jj for someone you love is the best. It's a labor of love and a fresh creative challenge to make it to fit their personality and interests.
This journal is soo beautiful! You did an amazing job. Every detail is so thoughtful. Thank you for sharing. I love birds and sewing and pink so I was swooning 💝🥰💖
Hi Grace your journal is beautiful sure to make your friend smile a lot of love went into your journal i love it so much well my have a new friend hear im Christine can't wait to see you again. Thank you dear lady ❤
Thank you so much! Am trying my hardest to remember “painted pages”. Either my brain is too tired from the holiday rush to remember ever doing that or…? Either way, thank you.
I love your journal. As a 70’s teen/ young adult there are many blast from the past! Before my aunt past she loved all the cards sent to her. This would have been a great gift to make for her!!!
I have that exate treadle sewing machinej! (Except mine has 3 drawers on each side, works well). Nobody wanted it in my family so it came to me and I am thankful! Can not get over the price! Thank you dear.
This is an amazing book! I love how you use so much authentic ephemera and are still able to add modern elements and it all flows so perfectly. I'll be following you and learning all I can from you! Thank you!
Love this journal--beautiful and chunky with tons of vintage images. I think your crochet and embroidery are so so pretty. Fun going down memory lane. Yes, we had an ice tray just like the metal one. The thing I didn't like about it was how it turned the cubes into shredded bits. Now I feel all nostalgic and a bit sad. Not to worry, I feel that way often--lol. Thank you for showing us this beautiful journal. XOXOJANE
That is beautiful! I love the cover! My favorite part is the way you sewed the signatures in with pink embroidery floss. I’m sure your friend will cherish that gift. 🩷P.S. I loved those old 60s sitcoms too! 😅
This is an awesome journal. I love all of the vintage pieces you have included. It is beautiful, and so much fun to see all of those ads. I am sure you friend will be blessed to have this treasure.
Hi Grace, new subbie here! Your video showed up on my feed and I am always looking for fellow journal makers, so I came on over. I hope that your friend is feeling better now. So thoughtful of you to make this journal for her and I am sure she loved this journal, it is beautiful! I certainly do remember the metal ice cube trays. They were hard to do. I hated them. I LOVED I Love Lucy so much! So did my oldest daughter. She and I would sit and watch those all the time. I look forward to more of your videos! Have a good night!
I absolutely love it!!! There is nothing better than gifting such a devoted labor of love. I do it, I never "sell" my projects, but I will take a donation. I'll catch a glimpse of them in the memories and remember how much I loved making it.
@@graceandoldpaper I've been cleaning out the scrapbook side of my craft room. It has morphed from the beginning and stuff gets put in the most convenient place, not the right place. As I'm cleaning, I'm finding things meant for books but never reaching their destination. I'm getting so excited to do the new wave. You've never inspired me to move through the tough part for the achievable beauty at the end
Absolutely inspirational!!!❤ You have helped me so much find my creativity again after losing my fiance, it's been impossible to put together photos and memories but I feel I can do this after watching your beautiful video. Thank you for sharing your gift. ❤❤❤
I am so very sorry for your loss! You can do a journal. If I knew what kind of theme to do, I’d do one to sell on my Etsy shop. The one I’m working on now is for myself. And then I will start on new ones to sell. I love making them! And a memory journal can be a fantastic way to remember someone! God Bless you!
I really enjoyed watching your video, thank you for sharing. I loved all the old adverts and recipes. Your friend will just adore her junk journal (I would) Pleased I found you and I had to subscribe
I smiled when you said cheeze it box😊 because my first journal I made was from a cheeze it box!! Just found your channel and subbed. Love this journal and I’m sure the recipient will love it too!
I absolutely love this!!! Your fabric piecing, embroidery, and vintage advertising are amazing!!! Do you photocopy your ads before putting them in your journals or do you use originals??? I'm so scared to cut up my old magazines... 😊 TFS!!!❤❤❤
I don’t usually make copies. I have been lucky to find quite a few vintage magazines, so I don’t worry about it. And thank you so much for the compliments!! I put a lot of time into it. 😃
I believe there's no wrong or right in junk journaling. It's a handmade creation with love. So, it's perfect.
Thank you so much!
Nope.. everything goes… so let your creativity shine on😀

This is beautiful ❤️ what size of papers did you use? Just regular printing size paper? 8.5 x 11?😀
I use a mixture of sizes. Biggest size I use is 12x12 scrapbook paper but I have to cut them down to fit the book.
nice job thanks for sharing
Thank you so much!
The beautiful children’s book you are talking about? Do you have a name of it? I collect art work for children to do journals. Thanks!
Yes I do! It is Where Butterflies Grow by Joanne Ryder with pictures by Lynne Cherry. And thank you for the compliment!
❤❤❤❤❤❤ lindo
