If you want something creative that's easy, requires no talent, and is fun, I think you'll like this kind of glue book.
I have years of beautiful magazines that I subscribe to and reluctantly dumped them in my recycle bin last night (my office was getting cluttered). After watching your videos this morning, I've rescued them and will start creating glue books! Love this creative art form. Thank you ❤️
That is awesome!
I'm so glad you rescued your magazines 😍🌷
I love how you say, what's your purpose? That is why I make cards. I can send them to family and friends. Especially in these covid times. So nice to go to your mail box and there is something other than a bill. An uplifting message. That is my purpose.
Love that!
I you have fun doing it, then it’s good for you. And if you enjoy it, then others may see your enjoyment and try it themselves. As long as it makes you happy….”Just do it.” Life’s too darn short to worry about who’ll like it and who won’t.
You are so right, Deborah.
I’m new today and I am going to make a glue book to inspire me when my creative juices for journaling are not flowing , this is exactly what I need right now, thank you.
Have fun! 😊
Hi there. Loved your video and just subscribed. I just got into the whole glue book. It’s just so much easier. I wanted to take a break from actually making junk journals. The process is long for me. I’m still considered a beginner and my over thinking makes me take forever. Oh and watercolors…I feel you. I have a love hate relationship with watercolors. I love watching other people and their results but I still need so much practice and it doesn’t come out like I want to. It makes me frustrated because I’m a little impatient with learning new techniques. I like fast results without all the practice. I know easy way out lol and this is the reason why I’m terrible at nice lettering or calligraphy. No matter how much I practice My fingers just don’t want to get it lol This is why I love the glue book idea. It’s Fast, easy and no over thinking so I have more fun. Does anyone else have the same problem as I do??
It sounds like you've found the perfect pastime in glue books. Have fun!
Yes I'm still trying to start a junk journal.she makes this video so interesting and 😌relaxing.
I’m loving this so much
I craft from my recliner as I live in chronic pain
I really want to do this.
I'm sorry to hear that you're in pain, but it sounds like you know how to enjoy life anyway. Glue books are easy and fun.
I really enjoyed learning this, and also was encouraged by your talk. It’s just fun to do, sometimes.
I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Wendy, you make me smile. I so enjoy listening to you.
Aww! Thank-you so much.
Hi Wendy, good idea to turn magazines into a gluebook, I'm going to try this too. I have been using (regular) sketchbooks for this for quite some time now. My gluebooks are a combination of scrapbook/journal and art journals. I really do everything in it just what makes me happy at that moment. Thanks for this video and I hope you show in videos how to fill this. Love from the Netherlands ✂️🎨🖌️✏️💕
Wonderful!
Hi Wendy...Thank you for this tutorial ! I am fairly new to JJ...and have just finished my second journal. I was wondering what type of journal to do next...and you have inspired me to make a glue book like yours. Thanks, again !
Wonderful!
hello Wendy it is so true , I make my Journals for me so I can do what I love .thanks so much for your Videos.
You are so welcome!
Love this idea. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for watching! Have fun!
I like this kind of crafting and your idea of using old magazines to make glue books thrills me. It is simple and looks relaxing. I also like how you can vary the height of the book as well.
It is easy and fun. I'm not sure what you mean about varying the height of the book. Thickness? Size?
Very cute! Loved the finished version!
Thank you!
What a great video. now maybe I can finally get the hang of this. I am at least going to give it a try again. Thank you so much for taking the time, to go through it step by Step. I subscribed . Wonderful Channel.
Thanks for subscribing. You can do it!
Love this video, thank you 🌷
You are so welcome!
I love this idea! I just found your channel. So creative! 🥰
Welcome!
Came here to find out what a "glue book" is. This looks very interesting. And relaxing.
It is! Thanks for coming.
Thank you for sharing this! I'm now on the hunt for a magazine
Have fun!
This video got me motivated ❤️
Wonderful!
Love it! I first saw this on Nicole’s Relax Cut Glue channel! It’s a great way to use up magazines:) Thanks for sharing ❤️
You are so welcome!
Love this! Tfs!
Thanks for watching! This one has been really popular.
Great video fun, easy stress escape. ❤ I love it. I thought I was trying my hand at a junk journal, then realized it was glue book pages😊
It's fun, and so easy. Thanks for watching.
So glad I found you🤗
Me too!!
Cute little book. I ❤ glue booking!
Thank you! 😊 Me too.
Wow! Such an amazing thing.
Thank you for sharing your talents 🎉
New subscriber here❤
Thanks so much 😊
Thanks so much for your video. I think my grandaughter would love to make a glue book.
You are so welcome!
Thank you. Inspiring
You are so welcome!
I bought two ok those key west paper pads when they were on sale... I made a cute little junk journal. 🌴🦜
That is awesome!
I have just discovered this fascinating hobby. ❤
Wonderful!
Wendy: I think exactly the same way you think. May I add some other thoughts. First, this is a free way to craft. The only item you have to buy is a glue stick. Magazines can be gotten for free. (Magazine stands, libraries, beauty salons, friends, etc) and it is an easy way to just relax. There are no mistakes in gluing collages. Another important thing is this is another way to recycle. It’s a win, win for everyone. One of my favorite ways to craft. Carol from California
You're so right on all benefits.
Interesting
thank you
You're welcome
I love the album you showed at the end, and I was wondering what type of paint covers the stuff on the pages?
Thank-you. Acrylic paint usually covers well.
@@WendyDewarHughes Thank you
Love this. I will t.ry it
It's fun and easy. I think you'll enjoy it.
Sometimes it is fun to make art just for the experience of making it.
My philosophy exactly! Thanks for watching.
I absolutely love this idea. Can u show how to finish the inside of this book? I am very new to glue booking, trying to figure it all out. I am just not sure what to do with my book now... thanks so much.
I have a few other videos working in this little glue book: ruclips.net/video/4Jirz650Sdg/видео.html
ruclips.net/video/KDozDzw0yfc/видео.html
ruclips.net/video/I8aDgytFUe8/видео.html
I usually do a two page spread at a time. Have fun!
Thank you Wendy
Love your video! Could you please tell me what is the brand of glue stick you are using. I have been searching for a good strong glue!
Thanks for asking. This is the strongest I've found: Square Gloo Sticks: amzn.to/3FwTIk6
I am brand new to collage and glue booking. Thank you for sharing your technique it is very helpful.
I am curious though. I am considering purchasing the gloo stick your shared. However, there are 3 different ones the link you shared links to one in teal packaging that is called disappearing the is one in grey packaging that is called strength and one in yellow packaging. Do you know what the differences are?
I've only used one type but it appears that the one in green packaging goes on opaque but dries clear. So perhaps the others don't. However, if you're gluing paper on paper I imagine that any would work. I hope that helps, and have fun with your projects.
@Valerie Martin From what I know. A lot of people buy the gray color one. It is also Amazon’s choice. Any color is good because this is a very good glue but the gray one is for strength and the other colors are more for disappearing. I don’t think you can go wrong with any color tho. Hope that helps.
Great idea. Lovely video. Can you show how you decorate such a book pls 🙏
Yes I can! You'll find lots of great ideas and tips on my channel: ruclips.net/user/wendydewarhughes
12:54 Pro tip… from a wobbly handed metal ruler and blade worrier (now Warrior!) 😂
Get yourself some 3M Command hooks (the clear ones are cool!) and attach them to your metal ruler…. Gives you a better grip and keeps your fingers higher up and away from those nasty easy-to-slip cutting blades! 🤗🤗🤗
Love this… imma gonna make some this weekend, this looks so fun! (Apart from the cutting, that scared me but I have 80-something rulers since I’m a (quilting/papercraft) ruler h̶o̶a̶r̶d̶e̶r̶ collector!😂)
That's a great idea. Thanks for sharing.
Hey, I just finished folding 2 magazines, ready to cut into my first 4 glue books! I’m having so much fun already! 🤗🤗🤗🤗
This looks like so much fun! What kind of super-sticky glue stick is that?
Oh, it is fun! The glue stick is called Gloo. There is a link in the video description where you can find it. It's great!
Can you use magazines with staples?
Yes, definitely.
I love this technique. One question: do you glue the folded pages together before you glue stuff on top?
Hi Linda. It depends how stiff or thick you'd like the pages to be. If you glue the folds together you'll get a thicker page, so if you prefer a thinner one, you can just cut the extra folded side off. I hope that helps.
@@WendyDewarHughes Ah - ok! Thanks for the quick response. Much appreciated.
@@lindabarnett7653 My pleasure.
U make cutting the edge look easy.
Mine got a little jagged
Sometimes things work out that way, don't they? 😊
Im taking an art course and one of the things I had to work with is water color…the only problem I had was is figuring out how much water that goes in the paint
Good for you! Watercolours are transparent, so the more water, the more sheer they become. Less water, more paint makes them more opaque. Play around with different colours using more or less water, as not all colours are the same. Have fun!
Love this project. Do you have a tutorial how to continue with the project?
Glue book ideas are adaptable to all kinds of books. You can find lots more glue book ideas on my channel here: www.youtube.com/@WendyDewarHughes/videos
I would like to have had a response specifically about the completion of this project!
Unsubscribed!
@@Cindy-sb5dv I'm sorry to have disappointed you. I don't have a tutorial for this exact project other than this video. I do, however, have lots of other project videos that have similar techniques. I'm sorry to see you go.
@Cindy this was very rude of you. This person doesn’t owe you anything, she kindly replied to your question- which is quite rare for creators on youtube, and her channel is full of examples of glue books as well. Try to be more kind, it gets you more than being sour.
7:45 ok now i get it ive seen several on here and couldn't figure out why all these ladys are making those
Easy, relaxing, undemanding.
What do you typically do with glue books?
I think the purpose is in the doing. Creating something with your hands is its own reward as it stills the mind and body during the process. Aside from that, you can keep them as a collection or give as unique gifts.
Libraries often have them for way more affordable than retail.
Libraries are always my first go-to, but with really lovely books, sometimes I want to own them so I can enjoy them over and over.
Fast-forward to 20:45
Thanks.
@@WendyDewarHughes I just found you today...what a gem! I particularly love when you talk about church and religion 💘
You're amazing! 😍
You actually had TWO pages together when you folded what you thought was your last page.
Thanks for watching.
Did I miss something? Because I still have no idea why I should make one, too!
Nor did I ever hear you say how or why you use a glue book ; barely showing us the one you’ve actually used… Never mind showing us examples of other glue books!
Perhaps, or perhaps I missed saying something. Glue books don't have any great purpose other than the pleasure one derives from making them, similar to keeping a scrapbook. My other videos will show more examples of what you can do with glue books.
@@WendyDewarHughes: Thanks for your reply, Wendy. When making them in college classes years ago, they weren’t called glue books-though I don’t recall what they were called. Anyhoo, I figured it out. Having far fewer resources than yourself, I just wouldn’t use up what I have that way… Nor do I have any interest in your TMI convos, to be quite frank. Good luck with your gluing.
Be careful shoulding on others. It can be offensive
Good thought. I hope you aren't offended.
Anything is offensive to someone nowadays
@@user-on7zd8yi8g Isn't that the truth. But a person has to take offense in order to be offended. It's their choice.
great little books.
Yes they are!
