Even though I am a seasoned junk journal maker, I am absolutely in love with your tutorials. You make them so precise and easy to follow. Anyone just starting out would be able to make journals after watching your videos. Thanks for all the care you take making your videos!
With my poor english I can undestand you so well. You are so, so organized... you are incredible. I love your chanel and your creativity. 🤗 Abrazos desde la Patagonia Argentina
I simply adore you. I have went back and watched every single video and tutorial and now I'm rewatching them to actually follow along and try my hand at journal making. Thanks for being an inspiration. U rock!!!
Natasha, you have brought a ray of sunshine into a dark and gloomy winter here in Canada. I’ve been watching you so much - my house is now covered in journalling stuff! My husband even goes around saying things like, “little pocket!” trying to mimic your beautiful accent. Please keep up the good work! I started looking at other tutorials but nothing beats yours. Such practical advice, I love it! And I watched your personal story - WOW! It really impacted me. Thanks for laying your soul bare. One of the things that attracts me to you is your depth of character. Stay courageous and may God bless you and your household, that you may walk in the light of His love 💗 My very sincere thanks 😊
Ohhhh, my gosh!!! I learned everything I need to know to make my first journal. I have been putting it off, but now, after watching your video, I’m ready to take the plunge. You are extremely creative and your directions were very clear with details. I like how you also explain why you do something. Thank you. 📒📕📗📘📙📖🔖👍🥰
Your tutorials are great, but I feel like you wouldn't even necessarily have to have a tutorial for anyone to watch. You could literally just journal, or make one, and you'd still get views. You've already established yourself, and you're obviously very loved and respected. You have an amazing vibe and a gentle spirit, so personally, I'd watch just because you took the time to post. Thank you Natasa for doing what you do. I too recommend your channel to people. 🥰❤️
I'm a new subscriber. I would/will watch either way, but tutorials are so helpful in explaining the process in a way that makes me feel like I can do it! I'm getting ready to try making my first journal.
Holy smokes you have simplified the great unknown!😝🤣. The perfect blend of the various paper items. I am coveting that journal cover 🤣😂. Thank you for the clarification. 👍🥰❤️
First of all, I have to say how much I LOVE your style, technique and instructions. I have all these things in my head and it is so hard to pull it all together and find a place to start....the struggle is real! lol I have written down your instructions and laminated them and I believe it will be such a HUGE help in getting started and not being so overwhelmed. I took a hiatus for about 1.5 years from crafting so now I have a lot of catching up to do. I don't know if I am happy or sad about having HOURS of your videos to watch! lolol Thank you for sharing your life and your love for crafting with us.
Oh. My. Gosh!! You have really simplified the process for all of us. I have learned so much with just this one video! I love all your videos, but this one took the confusion out of selecting and assembling signatures! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
yes, the process feels so much more do-able to me after finding this wonderful tutorial. I love that you make a paper outline for each step. I just take screenshots and I'm ready to go. Just barely decided I wanted to make mini-junk journals. The others don't appeal as much and didn't capture my imagination. I think they will be harder to do, since I have SO many materials already at hand; it'll be hard to decide what to include in which ones. And most of what I have will have to be cut down for a mini, multiplying what I have. Too many decisions. I'll have to just grab a few supplies and limit myself to what I've grabbed or I'll be totally overwhelmed.
@@marilyncarlson7097 Exactly! I went down the rabbit hole for a while, because there seemed to be so much to do before I could even start. This has helped me enormously.
I agree completely, this was like a course in how to start junk journaling and it pulled everything together that I've learned from watching so many of your tutorials already, Natasa! Thank you!!
I have watched so many videos about creating a signature but still unsure about doing it until I saw your explanation. I love your technique of the written outline that you follow as you explain the process. Brilliant! Thanks so much.
Your videos are so concise yet detailed and I love listening to you. I am new at journal making and am having such fun because i have been doing arts and crafts for 60 years and I can use so many of my loves in this such as quilting, crochet, painting, vintage linens, fabrics and trims. My craft room was made for this and in one week I have already made three. Guess what everyone is getting for Christmas? (bingeing your old videos).
Wonderful tutorial. I love the fabric covers on your journals. I recommend your videos to all journal makers new and experienced. I always learn something new watching you. Thank you
I love your channel. Not just because your art is lovely but also because you do things in such a helpful way, like sharing written explanations! Sometimes I want to come back to an informational video for reference or have a cheat sheet while I work and that makes it so convenient. It's the little things that turn good content into great content. I just wanted you to know that it's noticed and appreciated. ☺️
It is always a pleasure to watch your videos. No matter how long ago you uploaded them, it is always a moment to relax and feel inspired. Thanks a lot for all that you do. Much love,💙
Thank you so so much. I love the way you teach. You clearly answer questions and show us step by step. You also give us written instructions, which is really great. I am learning so much from you and am so grateful. ❤️
This is perfect Natasha. Tutorials like this helps me tremendously, I don't have to overthink anything, especially as a beginner just learning how to make journals. Yes, using what I have, but taking out the guesswork of where do I start. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! You are a great teacher. God bless you and yours. Sincerely Becky B from Arkansas
Thank you Natasa. Very clear and concise tutorial, not "over complicated" at all, in my opinion. I like your style of journals and, yes, I am inspired. 🎨
I am BRAND new to junk journaling - planning on making 4 of them for Christmas gifts this year. I've been collecting the raw materials but was a bit stuck on how to move forward. This is exactly what I needed to see! Really enjoying your channel!
Oh, dear Natasha, My husband watched some of your tutorials with me and has now issued me with a challenge. He made a masterboard a couple of weeks ago after watching a video but to date, I haven't (I think my mind is too structured for abstract work.) So now I have to make a masterboard and he will make a signature following your videos. The challenge is on, and in the new year, I will show him I can do it and in the meantime, he plans on watching ALL your videos.
I'm turning old library books into journals for Christmas presents this year and not only this tutorial but all of your videos have been a trem help! I'm making stuff that I'm actually excited to give as gifts.
I am so grateful for your "recipe". It can be so overwhelming to get started with hundreds (thousands?) of pages, no idea how to proceed. This was so helpful and inspiring! Thank you, thank you....
You're brilliant Natasa!! 🧐Everything is explained thoroughly, organized, and thoughtfully. Thank you!!! Journaling is therapy. You're an excellent instructor!🥰
I've been making journals for six years and have learned so much from watching your channel. Thank you for sharing your methods and organizational skills!
It's 5 am here in the states. I'm feeling incredibly lucky to catch your video. Do I see more wonderful cover work by your Dad and Mum? Artistry is hereditary. You know? 😊 Thank you for sharing your craft with us.
Hi Natasha. Absolutely gorgeous. I really love your teaching style and mostly your approach of providing formulas. You have given us formulas in other projects that have simplified how I now approach my projects. Thanks for sharing your beautiful work with us.😁❤
I’ve always asked myself how does Natasha get her journal to be so beautiful inside 🤩, today I’ve learned so much and will follow this method when doing chunky journals which I truly love making. Challenging myself to make a journal with 2-signatures (19) pages in each love the chunky look using a Amazon box, so now I can go back & change or add pages to my liking! Thanks so much for your wonderful tutorials and ideals always excited for THE NEW & FRESH from You! 🥳❣️❣️
All I can say , is : THANK YOU SO MUCH, I REALLY NEEDED ALL THESE INFORMATION🤗♥️ I'm new in the junk journaling community and this has helped me so much!!!!
I am excited to try doing this with a Bible journaling goal! I taught art for 22 years and every year taught a little bit of book binding and the history and a little bit of altered books but I am loving all your ideas!! Love all this so much, thank you!!
I've been working on 6x6 page journals for my family for Christmas. They are so cute! I'm adding a few personal photos to them. I think they are going to love them. I've made 10 so far. Thank you ❤️
You are my absolute favourite youtuber about junk journals. I love how clear and precise you are,while allowing for freedom of creativity, I especially love your step by step lists. Thank you.
This is Roger's wife Bonnie, I watch a lot of your videos. I am so happy that I found you. You are just wonderful! This video was so helpful in learning the order/process you do yours. It now make my process a bit easier for me. I love the way you explain in your videos in detail how to do/make items for your journals. You explain step by step on how to do something. You take your time so everyone can follow along and easily understand. I have learned so much from you. Keep doing what your doing...you have inspired me in many ways in making my journals.
This is a perfect one stop video for everything one needs to make the perfect junk journal. I love your videos and your way of teaching. Thank you so much for your time and sharing your knowledge with all of us.
I'm making my first really pretty journal for a gift. After watching this, I've reconsidered how to choose and assemble the pages!!! Thank you so much for your tutorials!
You really are a no nonsense girl. Everything I was fretting over because I could remember and If I had tuned in to you I would have had more clearance. Thank you Natasha for this happy video and I just love that one signature idea. Your great.
Finely, a Journaling videos I can actually use. I didn't understand Journals with so much "Junk" that there wasn't really any space for Journaling. Now I can make Jornals for myself and my friends and family that aren't plain and boring and yet still have plenty of room for Jornaling. Thank you. I will be watching more of your videos.
In a time that is difficult and disturbing all over the world, your videos are a respite. They are creative and calm and charming. I am appreciative of them, and of you, for making them. Thank-you Natasha.
At last! A craftsperson who actually explains what they are doing, how and why. I'm retired and looking for a hobby, and I fancied making a journal but it all looked so complicated and intricate. Your video showed me how to get started on something quite simple to get my confidence. Thank you!
This tutorial (as well as many others of yours) is saved in my favorites. I love your concise instructions, and your list of steps certainly help in keeping on task. They are a bit of old school learning technique wouldn’t you think? Many have been successful in obtaining college degrees using these principles. And, I never thought of using bits of a fan in my journals. Brilliant!!! I have an old one that’s very dear to me, but it’s fallen apart. What a lovely way to honor it. Thank you! 🤗🥰
I loved this journal. Loved learning the ratio and types of pages you choose! This is a beautiful journal. I love all of the extras that you tuck inside. I started small today and made a Little journal with my grandson. I used some of your methods AND! he said “I don’t like using trash Oma.” But I said, “it isn’t trash... never even went into the garbage. It’s free craft supplies!” And after his journal was complete and ready for his additions... he loved it! I did a lot of the work- by he glued and made most of the design decisions. It was such fun!
Natasha, this is just what I was looking for. I was having trouble getting started on my first journal and your instructions here are so perfect. Thank you Natasha. Now I begin.
Prior to watching Your Beautiful❤J Journal, I ‘totally disliked, grimaced, shuddered and Totally Avoided junk journals, BUT NOW After Watching plus 3 Repeat Watchings, I Want to Make my first One which I “may” try to video. I think it will take quite a time as I take my time to ponder and enjoy the process with anything I do these days. When I do this you will be the first to know. Meanwhile please accept my Sincere ; Thanks for Uplifting my Day, Thanks for The Inspiration upon my Way, Thanks for showing me How, And Thanks for making me Want to Start my Joy Journal Right Now!!! ❤ Your Happy Fan, Susie Donaldson x
Thank you so much for educating us on the process. It's all so intimidating without any understanding of the process. You have explained it so concisely and clearly. I am more enthusiastic now. 🙏❤
Junk journaling can be very overwhelming. I can depend on you to break it down, helping us make decisions by giving us a template to work with! Thanks for all you do!
You really knocked it out of the park with this tutorial. It was so very informative and a perfect video for anyone preparing to make their first journal. TFS!!
This is great! I've only just started my treasure book journey and you have been beyond helpful. Love your channel and I have been so inspired by you. Thank you so much for sharing your talents.
Your written outlines and organization of ideas makes it seem possible for this total beginner to journals. Though I've crafted seriously & regularly for 20 years, this is a new adventure. Thank you for making it look possible for the first time. I've been viewing tutorials for probably 9 months while making tons of gel prints in the past 18 months. The other tutorials just added to the confusion until getting this big pix of the process. Thank you so very much.
I have recently started paper crafting and have never made a junk journal. You took something that looked so intimidating to a newbie and made it simple and easy to follow. I can’t thank you enough! And your voice is so pretty and soothing! An added bonus 🙂
Thank you so much! This is such an informative, instructional video! This is exactly what I needed, as I was putting the signatures in without preparing the papers and also forgetting things!
I return to this video frequently because you lay everything out so beautifully! This is probably my #1 bookmarked tutorial. You are a winner, Natasha! I just love you so much!❤️
I think you're the only person kind enough to make notes for her followers. Now I have some sort of plan instead of willy nilly. AND mine are pretty will nilly lol. Thank you.
I just purchased my first sewing machine yesterday! I've been experimenting all day and this video could not have come at a better time. I'm making a Halloween journal with a sewn paper bag as the cover but I couldn't decide what to put inside...this was a tremendous help! I definitely need more blank lined paper in my collection like ledger papers etc...tomorrow...I attempt to onion dye paper! Thank you again so much for your tutorials! I can't wait to gift myself something from your Etsy shop someday!
This popped up on my feed today! Just what I needed! Thank you! I see it’s a year old…I love finding older videos to watch! So pretty! But I see it on,y has 18 pages not 20 but that’s just me….lol! His is such a GREAT tutorial! ❤️📕🇨🇦I am definitely impressed and inspired!
I'm so happy for this tutorial. I babe endless ephemera and pockets and such, but I get intimidated by putting signatures together. You are an incredible instructor. Really. Thank you so much! ❤
You really are my favorite junk journal artist ❤ you're an excellent teacher too and make such amazing straight to the point tutorials 👍 straightforward is always best 👍
I've made a list of four different categories of journals I want to do over the next few months. I have been bookmarking your videos so that I can go back and relearn the how-to's. I'm getting older and I want to make a genealogy journal for each of my grandkids before I forget. I want to make an art/project journal that will hold my initial attempts at various techniques so that I can put notes about the pros and cons of each for me and what I might do to improve and then show each new iteration.
Your journals are absolutely beautiful and so well done! This video is very helpful to newbies and experienced journal makers both. Of course I took screen shots of your cheat sheets. I love, love, love that you provide these ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you Natasha for making it easy for me to understand. I often wondered about how you figure out what papers to put into your suggested signatures. I'm saving these instructions as now I can categorize my different papers. I've collected so many different papers and categorizing it makes more sense to easily pull from. Thank you so much for taking the time to show it. Finally I can start a junk journal. I've been watching you for a long time but couldn't figure out how to start. I'm finally so excited, I can do it. Thank you so much
I appreciate your guides at the end enabling me to print them out. You do lovely work and I keep trying to emulate what you do while still adding my our flare. Thank you for all the work you share with beginners like me.
I always love your elegant and stunning journals and your detailed tutorials. Your videos inspire me every time I view them. I have many if your videos on my saved to watch again list. Thank you so much for sharing your talents. Many blessings to you and your family. 🙏🦋⚘
You explain things very well. I need more time in a day so I don’t have to stop! The ideas are limitless. I have been binge watching! I like when you write things down to be screen shot. It helps so much.
Your videos are so inspiring. I've been making journals for over a year now and I struggle with doing pages for signatures. Just by watching this and how you categorise them has really made it a whole lot easier and clearer. Thank you x
I am new to junk journaling and my eyes crossed and mind exploded when looking at other tutorials on "how to's". Then I found this one! So so so useful and helpful! Thank you sooo much!
I come back to your videos time and time again. I learn something new every time. Thank you, Natasha, for sharing your wealth of information and your talent. Sandra USA
I'm brand new at journaling and haven't made my first one yet but I love your video! It was so easy to follow and pleasant to watch and I learned so much. I really appreciate your time and effort.
Another excellent, super informative tutorial....I have watched junk journal videos for close to 2 years..I can respectfully say you are one of the top three paper artists worldwide..Truly a "treasure" for inspiration and a standard of excellence...
This is the most detailed and concise tutorial on how to make a junk journal, step-by-step. I’m not new to the book arts, but I am new to junk journals, and I’m in the midst of starting one. I love books and paper! I just subscribed, and I ordered your book. Thank you so much for this video!
I’ve made a lot of journals but this was still so helpful. I like the discussion on balancing the decorative elements with plenty of writing space. Thanks! ☮️❤️🌎😊
This is the area I have struggled with the most! Your explanation and rationale for your signatures is clear and precise! I can go now and make my journals with confidence instead of second guessing myself. I have ALL the papers- now, to get busy! Thanks for the well-informed push!
This was so helpful! I set aside my journal making for awhile, but now back at it. What a great, concise starter this is. And many thanks for your outline notes. I never tire of watching your videos multiple times.
You are the reason I fell in love with journaling. Thank you for all the tutorials! You are full of wisdom! Thanks Natasha!
Even though I am a seasoned junk journal maker, I am absolutely in love with your tutorials. You make them so precise and easy to follow. Anyone just starting out would be able to make journals after watching your videos. Thanks for all the care you take making your videos!

In a time that is difficult and disturbing all over the world, your videos are a respite. They are creative and calm and charming. I am appreciative of them, and of you, for making them. Thank-you Natasha.
Thank you so much 😀
Love your “formula” videos! Great guidance without having all of your/our journals looking the same. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
At last! A craftsperson who actually explains what they are doing, how and why. I'm retired and looking for a hobby, and I fancied making a journal but it all looked so complicated and intricate. Your video showed me how to get started on something quite simple to get my confidence. Thank you!
*THANK YOU for this video. I was beginning to overwhelm myself with the details of how to put my pages together for a complete journal.*
Glad it was helpful!
This tutorial (as well as many others of yours) is saved in my favorites. I love your concise instructions, and your list of steps certainly help in keeping on task. They are a bit of old school learning technique wouldn’t you think? Many have been successful in obtaining college degrees using these principles. And, I never thought of using bits of a fan in my journals. Brilliant!!! I have an old one that’s very dear to me, but it’s fallen apart. What a lovely way to honor it. Thank you! 🤗🥰
Thank you so much!!
I loved this journal. Loved learning the ratio and types of pages you choose! This is a beautiful journal. I love all of the extras that you tuck inside. I started small today and made a Little journal with my grandson. I used some of your methods AND! he said “I don’t like using trash Oma.” But I said, “it isn’t trash... never even went into the garbage. It’s free craft supplies!” And after his journal was complete and ready for his additions... he loved it! I did a lot of the work- by he glued and made most of the design decisions. It was such fun!
Oh I'm so glad, thats beautiful Patricia :)
Natasha, this is just what I was looking for. I was having trouble getting started on my first journal and your instructions here are so perfect. Thank you Natasha. Now I begin.
I have taken pictures and written down each step. Stopping and rewinding many times😂. I learned soooo much. Thank you❤️
Prior to watching Your Beautiful❤J Journal, I ‘totally disliked, grimaced, shuddered and Totally Avoided junk journals,
BUT NOW
After Watching plus 3 Repeat Watchings, I Want to Make my first One which I “may” try to video. I think it will take quite a time as I take my time to ponder and enjoy the process with anything I do these days. When I do this you will be the first to know. Meanwhile please accept my Sincere ;
Thanks for Uplifting my Day,
Thanks for The Inspiration upon my Way,
Thanks for showing me How,
And Thanks for making me Want to Start my Joy Journal Right Now!!! ❤
Your Happy Fan,

Thank you Natasha! You are the best teacher and share great information. ❤
Thank you so much for educating us on the process. It's all so intimidating without any understanding of the process. You have explained it so concisely and clearly. I am more enthusiastic now. 🙏❤
Natasa, I have to admit your channel is my favorite. Always such great tutorials and always things I would love to make!
Thank you so much!
Junk journaling can be very overwhelming. I can depend on you to break it down, helping us make decisions by giving us a template to work with! Thanks for all you do!
You really knocked it out of the park with this tutorial. It was so very informative and a perfect video for anyone preparing to make their first journal. TFS!!
This is great! I've only just started my treasure book journey and you have been beyond helpful. Love your channel and I have been so inspired by you. Thank you so much for sharing your talents.
This is the best )and easiest) tutorial I've seen so far! It turned out beautifully ❤
Your written outlines and organization of ideas makes it seem possible for this total beginner to journals. Though I've crafted seriously & regularly for 20 years, this is a new adventure. Thank you for making it look possible for the first time. I've been viewing tutorials for probably 9 months while making tons of gel prints in the past 18 months. The other tutorials just added to the confusion until getting this big pix of the process. Thank you so very much.
Wonderful! Thank you for the feedback Marilyn :)
This tutorial was not even close to confusing. You enunciate and clarify and you do not stumble over your words. You do a superb job. Thank you.
Thank you!!!
I have recently started paper crafting and have never made a junk journal. You took something that looked so intimidating to a newbie and made it simple and easy to follow. I can’t thank you enough! And your voice is so pretty and soothing! An added bonus 🙂
Thank you so much! This is such an informative, instructional video! This is exactly what I needed, as I was putting the signatures in without preparing the papers and also forgetting things!
I love this tutorial. You did a really great job breaking it into steps.
I return to this video frequently because you lay everything out so beautifully! This is probably my #1 bookmarked tutorial. You are a winner, Natasha! I just love you so much!❤️
You make it look so easy and your directions always are precise and understandable. Thank you!!❤
You are amazing…everything I needed to know about starting a journal in one video. Thank you so much for sharing💕🇨🇦
I think you're the only person kind enough to make notes for her followers. Now I have some sort of plan instead of willy nilly. AND mine are pretty will nilly lol. Thank you.
I just purchased my first sewing machine yesterday! I've been experimenting all day and this video could not have come at a better time. I'm making a Halloween journal with a sewn paper bag as the cover but I couldn't decide what to put inside...this was a tremendous help! I definitely need more blank lined paper in my collection like ledger papers etc...tomorrow...I attempt to onion dye paper! Thank you again so much for your tutorials! I can't wait to gift myself something from your Etsy shop someday!
I'm so glad this video was helpful Robin, thanks for watching :)
This popped up on my feed today! Just what I needed! Thank you! I see it’s a year old…I love finding older videos to watch! So pretty! But I see it on,y has 18 pages not 20 but that’s just me….lol! His is such a GREAT tutorial! ❤️📕🇨🇦I am definitely impressed and inspired!
I'm so happy for this tutorial. I babe endless ephemera and pockets and such, but I get intimidated by putting signatures together. You are an incredible instructor. Really. Thank you so much! ❤
Thank you ❤️
You really are my favorite junk journal artist ❤ you're an excellent teacher too and make such amazing straight to the point tutorials 👍 straightforward is always best 👍
I've made a list of four different categories of journals I want to do over the next few months. I have been bookmarking your videos so that I can go back and relearn the how-to's. I'm getting older and I want to make a genealogy journal for each of my grandkids before I forget. I want to make an art/project journal that will hold my initial attempts at various techniques so that I can put notes about the pros and cons of each for me and what I might do to improve and then show each new iteration.
Great video! As a beginner I so appreciate the "Hot To" of picking and layering of the different paper types - Thank You
Glad it was helpful!
Your journals are absolutely beautiful and so well done! This video is very helpful to newbies and experienced journal makers both. Of course I took screen shots of your cheat sheets. I love, love, love that you provide these ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you Natasha for making it easy for me to understand. I often wondered about how you figure out what papers to put into your suggested signatures. I'm saving these instructions as now I can categorize my different papers. I've collected so many different papers and categorizing it makes more sense to easily pull from. Thank you so much for taking the time to show it. Finally I can start a junk journal. I've been watching you for a long time but couldn't figure out how to start. I'm finally so excited, I can do it. Thank you so much
I appreciate your guides at the end enabling me to print them out. You do lovely work and I keep trying to emulate what you do while still adding my our flare. Thank you for all the work you share with beginners like me.
I always love your elegant and stunning journals and your detailed tutorials. Your videos inspire me every time I view them. I have many if your videos on my saved to watch again list. Thank you so much for sharing your talents. Many blessings to you and your family. 🙏🦋⚘
You explain things very well. I need more time in a day so I don’t have to stop! The ideas are limitless. I have been binge watching! I like when you write things down to be screen shot. It helps so much.
Hahah thank you so much. The first word I saw in your comment was "shit", made me chuckle :)
I fixed it! I guess I should spell check before sending!
This is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you for writing the points down also, so I can save a snapshot for later reference. Great video!
Your videos are so inspiring. I've been making journals for over a year now and I struggle with doing pages for signatures. Just by watching this and how you categorise them has really made it a whole lot easier and clearer. Thank you x
I'm so glad! Thank you
I am new to junk journaling and my eyes crossed and mind exploded when looking at other tutorials on "how to's". Then I found this one! So so so useful and helpful! Thank you sooo much!
I'm so glad, thank you
I have watched so many videos and this is by far, the most instructive! Thank you so much…now I feel I can begin. 😅
Thank you so much :)
I come back to your videos time and time again. I learn something new every time. Thank you, Natasha, for sharing your wealth of information and your talent. Sandra USA
I'm brand new at journaling and haven't made my first one yet but I love your video! It was so easy to follow and pleasant to watch and I learned so much. I really appreciate your time and effort.
Another excellent, super informative tutorial....I have watched junk journal videos for close to 2 years..I can respectfully say you are one of the top three paper artists worldwide..Truly a "treasure" for inspiration and a standard of excellence...
Thank you so much!
This is the most detailed and concise tutorial on how to make a junk journal, step-by-step. I’m not new to the book arts, but I am new to junk journals, and I’m in the midst of starting one. I love books and paper! I just subscribed, and I ordered your book. Thank you so much for this video!
I’ve made a lot of journals but this was still so helpful. I like the discussion on balancing the decorative elements with plenty of writing space. Thanks! ☮️❤️🌎😊
Glad it was helpful!
I AM feeling really inspired - already on my second junk journal - so grateful to you for all your tutorials and ideas!
This is the area I have struggled with the most! Your explanation and rationale for your signatures is clear and precise! I can go now and make my journals with confidence instead of second guessing myself. I have ALL the papers- now, to get busy! Thanks for the well-informed push!
Awesome!!! Thanks so much for watching :)
Love to watch your tutorials, you make everything look easy. Your explanations are clear and precise. Keep it going.😅
As a beginner this was amazingly helpful, organized from beginning to end. Thank you!
This was so helpful! I set aside my journal making for awhile, but now back at it. What a great, concise starter this is. And many thanks for your outline notes. I never tire of watching your videos multiple times.
