For anyone wanting to get their hands on some 'Country Diary' second hand books, World of Books have copies of most of the ones that Julie showed here and some are quite reasonably priced (£3.80). Postage free in UK, though they do International shipping too. Happy journaling!
A niece in the UK purchased one for me from Amazon and mailed it to me in Australia. Post and delivery charges for us is horrendous. I won't be cutting my book up, I will photocopy and tea dye the paper.
Photocopying and tea dye is a great way to get fab results, whilst preserving your lovely book. Yes, postal charges are crazy these days - I never buy from overseas because of this, though I would love to!@@denisejames855
Julia, my gardens are full of weeds, I quit pulling them , I figured if they grow God must have wanted them there !@ lol😂😂🎉 live your humor and videos WEEEE !! 😂😂🎉❤
I came to see the book, but listening to you is more entertaining than watching you flip through the book...I'm not muting, speeding up, or turning away. I'm a 1st time viewer and I will definitely be back
These are all amazing!! I’d love to have a list to print off so I can search for treasures. You can’t speed up your videos……. The best part is listening to you. You make my days brighter with laughter. Thank you! ❤
Sigh....this was wonderful. Gushing over Edith Holden ~ what a joy and a wonderful way to spend time with you talking and sharing your appreciation. Loved it all. Thank you so much.
Julie I had to comment a second time .Those journal covers are absolutely beautiful. What an inspiration. I will have to patiently wait to see the finished book. Did I say patiently? Not my best trait.😂😂 Val.🐨 💟
Hi Julie. First let me say, please keep making videos,we love to see and hear from you. I have had two craft books based on Edith Holden drawings. One was based on cross stitch and embroidery and also knitting patterns and had patterns for floor mats and furnishings. My favorite is a cross stitch fire screen tapestry. Also a beautiful cardigan using the holly illustration on the back. The publishers certainly made a lot of different books and editions. Anyway thanks for the flip through of these wonderful books. Val.🐨 💟
Wait… I thought this was story time. Here I am sitting in my blanket fort on my sleeping bag with my thermos. 🤗💙🦋Xxx 😂😂😂 thanks for the flip through. Such a beautiful book.
Thank you so much, Julie, for the flick through of all the various books. I've started buying some of Edith's books. Usually two a time, even with the astronomical postage cost to Australia from the UK. I had to put my beautiful 15 year old rescue cat Rocky to sleep on Christmas day, 4 weeks shy of me having the pleasure of being his human. My boy was on special diet food and was with me wherever I was. I figure that as he had his chair next to mine at my craft desk and he would be there 99% of the time I was there, he would get that i was spending my "Rocky money" on good things. I miss my boy not popping up occasionally and having a look at what im working on.
I love your channel, Julie. I am a cross stitcher rather than a paper crafter, but watching you is so soothing and like a visit with a dear friend while I stitch. I lived in the UK for two years in the 70s when my husband was in the US Air Force, and my heart always yearns for my British roots(English and Scottish heritage) and your chatting and especially your “waffling” feeds that. Keep on doing what you do; I will let you know when I make my first junk journal! 😘
Thank you so much Sue😊 The UK was much better in the 70's i think. Have you seen Liz, @ButtonsForBrains, she's scottish and does some fabulous stuff. I can listen to her for hours. I love cross stitch and haven;t done any in years. I did it while watching tv but my eyes take too long to switch focus now and i got out of the habit. A cross stich journal cover would be gorgeous. I may have to give it another whirl with an audio book on. So you make a journal and i'll crack on with cross stitch🤗💜
Fabulous collection of Edith Holden's books, Julie, I'm the same. I won't use them unless I've got another one to replace it , also the price of them can be expensive , think folk have clocked on to us crafters 😜, 🥰😘
Miss Julie, I love the books but try and finding them here in the U.S. is impossible. But I am still searching. Thank you so much for sharing your collection. Thank you and God Bless you and your family. 🥰💖👍👍👍👍👍(🌹🐞🦂🌵)
Julie you should do a book on how to grow weeds 😂😂I do enjoy your videos Julie and scents of humour (both my parents from Uk)MY dad passed away from cancer nearly 18 years ago .mum got a good scent of humour
I love the things people make from Edith Holden books and am glad you did a flip through on them. As you went through the books I noticed that "The Country Diary of an Edwardian Lady" tends to have drawings on one side of a page and writing on the back, where "The Nature Notes has drawings on both sides of a page and the same with writing on either side of the same page. So, if you want more drawings, it's best to buy the first book you showed, if you can find a copy, lol. I love thrift/resale store shopping, but have yet to find an Edith Holden book. I did check the book website mentioned, nothing showed up for Edith Holden, hmm.... lol. My son is going to London in the fall, so will have him keep and eye out if he goes to any thrift stores while there, he doesn't mind looking for his mother, lol. Thanks again, love the informative video 💜💜💜
Thank you for showing the Edith Holden books. I had no idea of the variety. I am a knitter( I use 2 sticks & string, not one.) I also collect antique and vintage knitting books, so I will be on the hunt. Also Thank You for taking into consideration, your US viewers, l are one and am grateful!!! I love watching and learning at your feet!😊😊😊
I have a tip: I buy books at AB books (I live in Holland). Just look up the right name, it's in the UK. It's a platform. If you enter your address you can immediately see what the shipping costs are. I can't put it as a link because then it will be deleted. And mind the tax. That's what I've noticed since Brexit. If you order too high an amount, you suddenly pay a considerable amount in import duties. Also with books. Thanks for showing. You make me laugh 😁
I totally forgot to mention them Lucy, i buy from them too😁 Argggh Brexit, can you tell i'm not a fan. I used to buy from small sellers in Europe who now find it too time consuming and expensive to sell to the UK. I'll stop there as no one wants a brexit rant, i could go on for a while😅🤗😘💜
Oh my gosh you are soooo funny. Just love listening to you. Watching as well, your work is lovely, but mostly I end up listening as I’m working on my journals. Just wanted you to know how much I enjoy you. ❤
Thanks for sharing the Edith Holden books. I've lucked out on several of her books but hard to find in USA. I just pulled pages from The Edwardian Lady a few days ago. It only hurt for a few minutes! Evelyn, Edith's younger sister, was also an artist.
I have just purchased my very first Edith Holden book, the first one you showed, wanted one for a while, looking at all those beautiful drawings & the handwriting 🥰 can’t wait for it to arrive now. I would never put you on mute, I love listening to you waffle & watching your videos, I could listen to you read a phone book, that would be hilarious 😂😂😂😂 You crack on women, look forward to your next video, from one crazy crafter to another 🤪❤️
I bought one Country Diary, but it's such a beautiful hardcover edition, I really can't take it apart. For that I got the "Wildflowers of Britain" from Margaret Erskine Wilson. And if I absolutely need something out of the Country Diary I'll scan and print it.
What a great stash of Edith Holden books. They are like hens teeth to get them in Australia. I have 3 of the regular ones & one of the Edwardian Lady. I had to pay $35 each plus $10 postage on each here, as they were bought separately. I love those little postcard ones. I've never seen them before. Thank you for sharing them with us, I always enjoy your videos. Weeeeee! Hugs from Australia xx
Thank you so much Linda love ☺️ that is a hefty price tag for them, i bet you will think very carefully before cutting one up. Really glad you enjoyed the video🤗💜
The Edith Holden books are all beautiful. I do love the postcards too. I can knit & crochet & do quite often. I like to paint, do DIY crafts as well as my junk journals. 💕.
What a loveley waffling session and flip through of those gorgeous books. I enjoy these long wonderful sessions with you whilst enjoying a cuppa joe. I got a couple of the edith books months ago when i first discovered your wonderful channel. I will have to get duplicates if i ever want to use them for anything other than admiring😉 i find it difficult to cut up books even if i bought them for that exact purpose😂🙄💕 your wild garden sounds lovely and full of amazing benefits for the wildlife. I am trying to create a naturalist,native plant garden to help the birds, bees and other wildlife. Take care and thanks for sharing.🤗💕
Thanks lovely☺️ i'm the same, i need at least two before cutting one up. As for the garden, thats my unplanned plan. My house is a new build and was built on the site of a garden centre and nurseries, so we get all sorts pop up. I be t your garden is beautiful😁🤗💜
Lovely to see these books. I have been fortunate to find The Country Diary of An Edwardian Lady in the hard cover. Found it in a used book store for $10.00. These are not easily found in 🇨🇦. Thank you for sharing.
Oh you lucky lady ... I've been looking for years for anyone of these books but mostly Edith Holdens.... Diary of an Edwardian Lady. Tyler for sharing my friend
I did not know they had all those different books. I have a couple, but haven’t used them yet. Anyway, looks like you’ve got a big selection! I’m still trying to get a hold of the postcard ones. Those are very nice! Hugs 🤗❤️
Wow. What a treat of a video. Well done you!!!! I adore Edith Holden and have many of her books. Cannot get too many. I too love thistles Julie. Thankyou for sharing your appreciation of a wonderful lady. I made my niece an Edith Holden journal. She was thrilled. What a tragic death of a wonderful artist. It makes you wonder what other gems she would have crated. Xxxx
I watch this last night and love the Edith Holden's books also. I've purchased 8 4 are the same the others are the same that you have except 1 that I don't have and need to find. :) oldest I have is a 1977, and has a beautiful dark tan patina. Also my Garden Notes have pages with lines to use for annotating your flower garden, 1984 date.... Anyway I love all Edith Holden so much I have a complete set of China setting for 8 that was by Noritake 1977. (bought it in Germany when we were stationed there in the Air Force during that same time. Thanks so much for showing the ones that I don't have will have to find them. ;)
Well....I was born in 1975 and have no recollection of knuckles and conckers....LOL!!! But we did play Red Rover Red Rover which was terrifying because you were literally allowing children to be physically violent bahahahahah! All the red arms and sprained wrists.....never understood that one. Her biography is a really interesting read, especially the circumstances surrounding her death. Great video, lady! Thank you for the flip throughs!
Thanks for this great video! Who doesn’t love Edith Holden books!? There’s one I found that I don’t think you have. It’s an Edith Holden address notebook. I probably ordered it from one of those places that sells old books, perhaps it was from Abe’s Books here in the US. It’s a spiral book maybe about 5x7 in size (I don’t have it in front of me right now), but I know you would like it.
Thanks Eileeen, that one has passed me by, but i will be on the lookout for it. Yesterday i paid rather more than i usually like to pay for the Birthday card book with all the cards still inside. I'll be using them straight away in the new journals, so i couldn't resist them☺️🤗💜
U had me chuckling thru out the whole video!! I found the birthday book in Canada. My friend found The Diary of an Edwardian Lady & sent it to me. I was shocked but thrilled at the same time. I really enjoyed learning about all the different books that have been made. Thank u so much for the evening chuckles & having u flip thru the different book. ♥️ 🇨🇦
I love these books!! I don’t know how many I have, but even here I have been able to get quite a few!! I do use mine but I think that I have enough to use some. I don’t have many of those other ones though! I’m so old that I doubt that I can use them up but I think that I’ll share some pages with my friends!! Thank you for sharing this with us!! Love your channel!!💕💕
Hi Julie. Great video showing the books you use. It was great to see them as the pages inside are very rarely shown so never quite know if the book is worth it. Love Edith Holden. You have made me a big fan. They really are beautiful. Was so funny when you showed the book you “thought” you were getting, and the “actual” tiny book you received. 😂. I’ll be online looking for other Edith books to buy and use. Thanks so much. Debs. 💜🤗
This has been a fabulous showcase of all Edith. I had no idea of anything but the diary! Your journal covers are beautiful. Will you give a flip through of one or two of the journals when completed? Thanks for the great video❤❤
I just checked online and there’s lots with all kinds of prices and several languages too. Some of them say they are a facsimile which is actually fine for journals! Thank you Julie, I didn’t even know about some of them! Cross stitch makes me crazy!!🙃🙃🙃
Thank you thank you. I am going to show this to my other half so he knows it is not just me! 😂 I have a collection like yours, I don’t have that Christmas one … never seen that before! The crafts one I have 2 of, paid 50p each for them, I used my tab/whale tail punch on the jumpers and flowers in the pictures and have a collection of really lovely interesting tabs now. Thanks again. Love your journal covers, good use for those postcards as I have struggled to use them cos they are so shiny! 💜
You're welcome Mrs ☺️ yes show him, i have a few more tucked away😘 the postcards are a bit shinier than i would like too. Another thing i've been going to try is a coat of clear gessoor maybe a matt laminator sheet🤗💜
Wow, I love your amazing collection. This was such a great flip-through. I am always on the lookout for Edith Holden books, had no idea there were so many. I found the one *about* Edith Holden, not a favourite but I was thrilled to find it after years of searching for her other books. I will keep looking. Thank you for sharing your collection! Your journals are absolutely beautiful, and I can't wait to see a flip-through of your finished journals.
Love these books, I have the address book version which I use at Christmas and birthdays!! I’ve already been through it to see what I can chop out 😂 Here in hampshire we call sparrows “spadgers”!! I just love them, they’re so sociable and their chattering really cheers me up! I’ve never managed to find any of the other books in charity shops or sales (more’s the pity) so thank you for the head up…..I’m on a mission now !!! ❤
That;s one i don't have Marcia, so i'll be on a mission too😁 My mum used to call my girls her little spadgers. We use spadge and spadger as an affectionate term up here. No idea why. Sometimes i wonder if it's a local thing or even a family thing when i can't google anything about it🤗💜
Amazon has some of the books and the price to go with them. As always, it's a pleasure watching your videos, Julie. Thanks for sharing your book collection. 🙂❤️
You're welcome Marcie love. I like to throw those comments in for the trolls, i've had quite a few rude comments lately, but the vast majority are lovely people like yourself☺️🤗💜
You are very lucky to have this many of Edith’s books but you use them to there best advantage I think you used some of post cards before on video love the books so beautiful I bought one in book shop new but really can’t cut it up yet but I did tell my family I am using my things they will just dump everything I have missed you but understand thank you for sharing ❤❤ THEOLA
Thanks Theola love 😊 the girls take up alot more of my time since they started college. College here is like the last two years of high school in the US🤗💜
This is an awesome video. I have a couple of her books, but had no idea there were so many! Now I will be on the hunt to see what I can find. Thank you for sharing! ❤🙂
I'm glad that you showed us all the Edith Holden books. The book sellers don't show any of the interior pages. I have a copy of 'The Country Diary of an Edwardian Lady'. It has the beautiful green cover but the pages look as if they were printed on dark yellow paper. It mutes the colors of the pictures. I didn't know that the pages should be much lighter. I'm going to have to look for another copy. I ordered the book through a book seller. I think I paid $10 for it.
@@CameliaCraftsDesigns I prefer to do my shopping in person. This is one of the reasons I don't like to order things. Unfortunately, there are't very many book stores, new or used around anymore.
Thank you very much for doing this video!! I had no idea there were so many books with her illustrations. I will be getting one or two of them for sure!
I’ve got 2. My sister found one for 50p in her charity shop. I’ve got another book about her life and an Edith Holden photo album. Just checked mine all the plain covers. I might do a walk through of mine
These are amazing. I will have to give a look at eBay. Don't usually go on there. We don't have anything in charity shops here in my neck of the woods. Thank you for sharing all the yumminess...
Thanks, Julie, for this helpful video. Unfortunately, some of the books and especially the postcards are going for stupid money right now… like hundreds of dollars! Your journal covers are absolutely stunning! They are some of the prettiest covers I’ve seen. Will you be listing them for sale in your Etsy shop?
For anyone wanting to get their hands on some 'Country Diary' second hand books, World of Books have copies of most of the ones that Julie showed here and some are quite reasonably priced (£3.80). Postage free in UK, though they do International shipping too. Happy journaling!
Thanks Heather love, i;ve pinned this so more will see it and will mention it next video☺️🤗💜
I’ve ordered a couple from there …. Great prices and fast shipping!

Thank you so much for showing the different books of Edith Holden. I always wondered about what some of them looked like.
"Mute them and speed them up!" Hilarious, but too true! You are the very best company!
Thanks Leah love 😁😊🤗💜
My specialty is also weeds. My husband says I have a black thumb. 😮
Priceless Kitrina😅😂🤣🤗💜

The very very best part of your videos is your chatter 😂!! I know I will always be entertained!! ❤😂 The tea deliver is hilarious! 😂
Thanks lovely☺️the tea was much needed with all the waffling🤗💜
Julie you should do a book on how to grow weeds 😂😂I do enjoy your videos Julie and scents of humour (both my parents from Uk)MY dad passed away from cancer nearly 18 years ago .mum got a good scent of humour
😅i could start a new you tube channel on it😘☺️🤗💜
Lots of gorgeous EH books, thanks for sharing!! I find all of mine on Etsy, very nicely aged and in perfect condition xoxo
I love the things people make from Edith Holden books and am glad you did a flip through on them.

So, if you want more drawings, it's best to buy the first book you showed, if you can find a copy, lol.
I love thrift/resale store shopping, but have yet to find an Edith Holden book.
I did check the book website mentioned, nothing showed up for Edith Holden, hmm.... lol.
My son is going to London in the fall, so will have him keep and eye out if he goes to any thrift stores while there, he doesn't mind looking for his mother, lol.
Thanks again, love the informative video 💜💜💜

I didn't realize there were so many different Edith books. Good to know!
Edith Holden envy here. These are hard to find in the states, if you do find one it’s usually very expensive. 😢
I know it's shocking Carol, Capitalism gone crazy love😐🤗💜
So true. I looked up one on Amazon $30.00 +

Thanks so much for showing the ones that I don't have will have to find them. ;)
Well....I was born in 1975 and have no recollection of knuckles and conckers....LOL!!! But we did play Red Rover Red Rover which was terrifying because you were literally allowing children to be physically violent bahahahahah! All the red arms and sprained wrists.....never understood that one. Her biography is a really interesting read, especially the circumstances surrounding her death. Great video, lady! Thank you for the flip throughs!
You musn't have lived close to any woods love. Red Rover was after my time. I was a teen by then😁🤗💜
Thanks for this great video! Who doesn’t love Edith Holden books!? There’s one I found that I don’t think you have. It’s an Edith Holden address notebook. I probably ordered it from one of those places that sells old books, perhaps it was from Abe’s Books here in the US. It’s a spiral book maybe about 5x7 in size (I don’t have it in front of me right now), but I know you would like it.
Thanks Eileeen, that one has passed me by, but i will be on the lookout for it. Yesterday i paid rather more than i usually like to pay for the Birthday card book with all the cards still inside. I'll be using them straight away in the new journals, so i couldn't resist them☺️🤗💜
England Is A Garden
Is another one close to Edith Holden. I love it.
Thanks Shannon, i think i might have that one😁🤗💜
Glad your back 😊, missed your humor and your videos. Hugs Jenny
Thank you so much Jenny love ☺️🤗💜
Thank you much for sharing these books with us! Much appreciated! ❤️
U had me chuckling thru out the whole video!! I found the birthday book in Canada. My friend found The Diary of an Edwardian Lady & sent it to me. I was shocked but thrilled at the same time.
I really enjoyed learning about all the different books that have been made.
Thank u so much for the evening chuckles & having u flip thru the different book.
♥️ 🇨🇦
Thanks Jude, you're welcome love 😊🤗💜
Lovely to see you. ❤ Love Edith Holden 💗
Thanks Dawn😁🤗💜
Thankyou Julie, I really appreciate your time and effort making this video.
I’m so jealous chook! What a wonderful collection! I have a few different ones but not as many as you just showed us. Thankyou! 😊💚🇦🇺xxx
Thank you Julie very interesting.
I love these books!! I don’t know how many I have, but even here I have been able to get quite a few!! I do use mine but I think that I have enough to use some. I don’t have many of those other ones though! I’m so old that I doubt that I can use them up but I think that I’ll share some pages with my friends!! Thank you for sharing this with us!! Love your channel!!💕💕
Thanks so much Donna love 😊 i need to read them instead of just looing at the pictures. 🤗💜
I just ordered that book on Abe Books for $3 + shipping to the US from UK…yay!!!
Fabulous Stacey, works out far better doesn't it. I hope you enjoy using it lovely😁🤗💜
Thank you, Julie!❤ I had no idea there were so many books! 🤗❤️
Hi Julie. Great video showing the books you use. It was great to see them as the pages inside are very rarely shown so never quite know if the book is worth it. Love Edith Holden. You have made me a big fan. They really are beautiful. Was so funny when you showed the book you “thought” you were getting, and the “actual” tiny book you received. 😂. I’ll be online looking for other Edith books to buy and use. Thanks so much. Debs. 💜🤗
I know, the tiny one is soooo cute😁🤗💜
This has been a fabulous showcase of all Edith. I had no idea of anything but the diary!
Your journal covers are beautiful. Will you give a flip through of one or two of the journals when completed? Thanks for the great video❤❤
I just checked online and there’s lots with all kinds of prices and several languages too. Some of them say they are a facsimile which is actually fine for journals! Thank you Julie, I didn’t even know about some of them! Cross stitch makes me crazy!!🙃🙃🙃
i love cross stich Donna, but haven't done any in years, glad you enjoyed this love☺️🤗💜
What an amazing collection you have!!!
Thank you thank you. I am going to show this to my other half so he knows it is not just me! 😂 I have a collection like yours, I don’t have that Christmas one … never seen that before! The crafts one I have 2 of, paid 50p each for them, I used my tab/whale tail punch on the jumpers and flowers in the pictures and have a collection of really lovely interesting tabs now. Thanks again. Love your journal covers, good use for those postcards as I have struggled to use them cos they are so shiny! 💜
You're welcome Mrs ☺️ yes show him, i have a few more tucked away😘 the postcards are a bit shinier than i would like too. Another thing i've been going to try is a coat of clear gessoor maybe a matt laminator sheet🤗💜
Hi Julie!
I actually have a copy of the book that I got in our apartment Library that is from 1905 !
Wow, I love your amazing collection. This was such a great flip-through. I am always on the lookout for Edith Holden books, had no idea there were so many. I found the one *about* Edith Holden, not a favourite but I was thrilled to find it after years of searching for her other books. I will keep looking. Thank you for sharing your collection! Your journals are absolutely beautiful, and I can't wait to see a flip-through of your finished journals.
You're very welcome love, so glad you enjoyed it ☺️🤗💜
Love these books, I have the address book version which I use at Christmas and birthdays!! I’ve already been through it to see what I can chop out 😂 Here in hampshire we call sparrows “spadgers”!! I just love them, they’re so sociable and their chattering really cheers me up! I’ve never managed to find any of the other books in charity shops or sales (more’s the pity) so thank you for the head up…..I’m on a mission now !!! ❤
That;s one i don't have Marcia, so i'll be on a mission too😁
My mum used to call my girls her little spadgers. We use spadge and spadger as an affectionate term up here. No idea why. Sometimes i wonder if it's a local thing or even a family thing when i can't google anything about it🤗💜
Your Edith Holden journal covers are gorgeous. Thanks for this video.
Thank you so much love, really glad you enjoyed it ☺️🤗💜
Amazon has some of the books and the price to go with them. As always, it's a pleasure watching your videos, Julie. Thanks for sharing your book collection. 🙂❤️
Thank you so much love, really glad you enjoyed it Shirley☺️🤗💜
Thank you for doing a flip through. You are much to entertaining to mute or speed up. Always fun catching up with you Julie. ❤😂
You're welcome Marcie love. I like to throw those comments in for the trolls, i've had quite a few rude comments lately, but the vast majority are lovely people like yourself☺️🤗💜
Thanks Marcie love😁🤗💜
I just don't understand rude people. If they don't like it move along. Not your cup of tea go find a different one, that's what I do.
Thank you for an amazing video 😊
I found a country diary knitting book in amongst some papers left at the house I just bought. Score - haven’t seen anyone show that one before 😁😁
That was a new one on me until another subscriber mentioned it, thanks lovely, i'm on the lookoit now 😊🤗💜
You have such a nice collection! I had no idea there were so many different ones. I adore the Post cards. They are gorgeous! Have a great week Julie!
Thanks Sheryl, you too love 😊🤗💜
You are very lucky to have this many of Edith’s books but you use them to there best advantage I think you used some of post cards before on video love the books so beautiful I bought one in book shop new but really can’t cut it up yet but I did tell my family I am using my things they will just dump everything I have missed you but understand thank you for sharing ❤❤
THEOLA
Thanks Theola love 😊 the girls take up alot more of my time since they started college. College here is like the last two years of high school in the US🤗💜
Thank you for sharing this , great video. I appreciate it because now I can make more informed purchases in the future. Enjoy your evening ❤❤❤
You're welcome Kathy love. Yes it can be hard when buying online, really glad you enjoyed it 😊🤗💜
This is an awesome video. I have a couple of her books, but had no idea there were so many! Now I will be on the hunt to see what I can find. Thank you for sharing! ❤🙂
You're very welcome Michele love ☺️🤗💜
I'm glad that you showed us all the Edith Holden books. The book sellers don't show any of the interior pages. I have a copy of 'The Country Diary of an Edwardian Lady'. It has the beautiful green cover but the pages look as if they were printed on dark yellow paper. It mutes the colors of the pictures. I didn't know that the pages should be much lighter. I'm going to have to look for another copy. I ordered the book through a book seller. I think I paid $10 for it.
I've had a copy that is way too dark as well, i save the pages for grungir stuff☺️🤗💜
@@CameliaCraftsDesigns I prefer to do my shopping in person. This is one of the reasons I don't like to order things. Unfortunately, there are't very many book stores, new or used around anymore.
Thank you for sharing.
Thank you very much for doing this video!! I had no idea there were so many books with her illustrations. I will be getting one or two of them for sure!
Glad it was helpful love ☺️🤗💜
Closed Captions is wonderful too
They do wonders with my accent😅😁🤗💜
Thanks so much for this video!!! Enjoyed every minute of it.
Lovely video 😊
I’ve just purchased this book from eBay 😊
You're ging to love it Shantel😁🤗💜
I've seen a couple more - "Country Diary of an Edwardian Lady Sunny Meadows"; CD of an EL Riverside Reflections, if you fancy those
Oooo yes i've seen those and they do one on vinyl. My eldest wants a record player, so i may treat myself when she gets one.
Thanks love☺️🤗💜
I’ve got 2. My sister found one for 50p in her charity shop. I’ve got another book about her life and an Edith Holden photo album. Just checked mine all the plain covers. I might do a walk through of mine
Oooo your siister is a lucky lass😁🤗💜
She sent it to me. 🎉🎉🎉
You "don't have enough ephemera??" Great, he'll must have frozen over!😮😂 Happy crafting!💜
😅😂🤣it's all the one sheet wonders and my tendency to give it away😘🤗💜
@@CameliaCraftsDesigns I get that! That's the good thing about not having crafty friends nearby (if there is one!😂).
I have an Edith coloring book. It’s cute.
I've seen that Donna, i am often tempted☺️🤗💜
Fantastic!
I have a collection of Edith Holden items and even some EH fabric and can't wait to make a journal
These are amazing. I will have to give a look at eBay. Don't usually go on there. We don't have anything in charity shops here in my neck of the woods. Thank you for sharing all the yumminess...
Thanks Mrs, you're very welcome. As i no longer drive i get lots from ebay😁🤗💜
I break out in hives when I think about cutting up a book. Unless it is damaged. I’m working on it. ❤️
I was exactly the same at one time Deborah, but the amount that get destroyed in the UK is shocking. Now i look at it as saving and repurposing☺️🤗💜
I have the Country Diary Book of Days, which is a hard cover planner.
ooo thanks Shelly, i will be hunting that one down☺️🤗💜
If you are selling those journals when done I'd love to purchase one!❤❤
artymaze video she made nest out of brown string so cool.
I need to go watch that Wanda, she is so creative😁🤗💜
Thankyou so much for this video !!! I have seen some of these books online and wanted to KNOW what they are like inside !!! very much appreciated !
You're very welcome love ☺️🤗💜
Thanks Julie, loved your video. Missing Gertrude though, has something happened to her? ♥️🇳🇦
Thanks lovely☺️ i think Geert needs a dust to be honest, she's a bit deaf and i have to shout at her🤗💜
Thanks, Julie, for this helpful video. Unfortunately, some of the books and especially the postcards are going for stupid money right now… like hundreds of dollars! Your journal covers are absolutely stunning! They are some of the prettiest covers I’ve seen. Will you be listing them for sale in your Etsy shop?
You're welcome love, really glad you enjoyed it 😊 i will be selling them, but haven't decided how and where yet. I've fallen out of love with Etsy🤗💜
