Thank you.
My pleasure 😊
Very cool that you first saw a EH book when you were young and then came to remember it as an adult!
I can't believe I forgot about it but I suppose I wasn't looking in the right places 😅 was only when I stubbled across junk Journal that I kept seeing the pages in journals 🤔
Great way to organize your pages. I love thee books. Cant wait for this series. Thank you for sharing
Thank you so much 🌻
Great way to organize the pages!
Thank you so much 🌻
Fun watching you sort them! Jo Ann xx
Thank you so much
I bought your Edith Holden junk journal kit & can't wait for it to get here!!
Thank you so much 🌻 I hope you enjoy it
Glad you did this tutorial. I'm new to journaling and before seeing this, I would have cut the single page free or just carefully torn it out. But now I see how many double-wide pages I've destroyed that would have been very pretty to use as centerfolds in signatures or possibly used as the front and back covers of the journal itself. Thanks for admitting me into your Facebook group. Be BLESSED!
Your more than welcome Mary and I must admit that the first couple I used I did exactly the same as I was to afraid to just take it all apart but like you I soon realised how many pages I had ruined because of it 🌻
It’s nice to see how people go at taking a book apart.Thanks for making this video.Love the story of your first encounter with the book. I have never heard of it until I started crafting. I have copies myself but I wish I could find one in a different language.🙂
Glad you enjoyed it!
Very helpful and an interesting sorting method. It makes sense when you see how to do it, but I needed to be shown it!!! Will save loads of time instead of flicking through everything each time. P..S. Still have no bath or shower, 5 days now !!😢. Spoke to someone today and apparently it’s the Irish way, promise you the world but never get round to it. TFS 😻x
Glad it was helpful! eeek your going to have to find the irish in you :)
Hi Tania, I originally purchased this book almost 40 years ago, when I worked in a book shop in the city at the tender age of 18. It still resides on my bookcase! Since watching junk journal videos, I have found quite a few in varying conditions, to be revived in my crafting. What wonderful memories this has recalled. Thank you so much for all that you share. XX
Yes it would have been about 40 years ago, I remember vowing that when I was a grown up that I would have this book. It was so lovely to rediscover it 🌻
Enjoyed seeing your process! It has given me several ideas on how to organize my own edition. These books are too pricey not to give some thought to how to use them.😊 xx
Thank you Jeanne, I'm glad someone asked me as I've not thought about doing a video of the process I use. Yes definitely too expensive to waste
Very interesting how you decide how you will use the pages. I don’t see any Edith Holden books in my future though.
Thank you so much Carol 🌻
awesome, I think it is always helpful to show how to take books apart as some don't always know XXX
Thank you so much 😊
Thank you for doing this, Tania. Very helpful. I love the story of how you first discovered Edith Holden. Priceless! 💕
Awww thanks, I love telling it, as it takes me right back there 😊
I'm glad you found it useful 👍
Thank you for sharing this with us. Love Edith's work and agree. She would love to watch what we do with her books. I like the way you divided things out into folders. I took mine apart and then was at a total loss as to where to start next. Now there is a plan!!
Thank you so much Cheryl
I was exactly the same, the first few I took apart I was constantly looking through a messy pile
Oooh! I see Tina at Shabbydabbydodah's latest post was inspired by you!!!
Great method! I've wanted to buy one, but they are insanely expensive here, and I've often thought I'd be too afraid to cut into it if I bought one.
😍 I know so nice of Tina - ive not watched it yet just home from work. (legs throbbing)
Interested to see how you take apart the book and sort your pages. I think Edith would be very happy to see other artists using her work. I liked your story, l remember my mum's copy in the late seventies. Did you know there was an Edwardian Lady TV series? 😊
I know there's a dvd I'm guessing that's the series then. What's it like?
Yes was late 70s/early 80s.
Haha I didn't want a barrage of people saying I can't believe you take a Edith book apart 🌻if I hadn't have seen it again in junk Journals I. Probably would have totally forgotten about it - which would have been a massive shame as it brings me so much joy. Working with it and looking at my personal copy 🌻
@@Tania-Tatttytreasure l haven't seen the series would love to but dvd very expensive! I have my own copy too that l won't cut up. Have opened another Etsy shop selling cottage vintage and botanical books including Edith 😊
You have? What's it called?
@@Tania-Tatttytreasure DormouseCottageGifts 😊
I love how this book has stirred such a wonderful childhood memory!!
Great way to organize it for projects!
I feel the same way...I think the original artist/writer would be more pleased that we are reinventing their work rather than abandoning it on a shelf or worse a dumpster!
Now I am even more excited (if that were even possible) that I purchased one of the kits for this upcoming project!!
Eeek yes I thought I'd best add that as I know some get upset at taking books apart but I feel the same, so many books end up in dust or the landfill. Edith would be amazed 100 years on that she is inspiring people 🌻
@@Tania-Tatttytreasure Absolutely!
I like the way you file them separately 👍. I’ll give it a go when I cut mine up . 😊♥️
Definitely helps when you are looking for something 🌻
Ok Tania I have to admit I had a tear in my eyes when I started cutting my book. I'd never of the book or the Author until I started junk Journaling. I immediately bought one and I've looked at it and fell in love with it. I've admired the beautiful writing, the amazing art and the feel of it. I've been displaying it on my shelf since. Today I did something I think I'd ever do. Now I'm going to appreciate it in other ways. Hope I do it justice. BTW.....I just ordered another one. Lol!
I'm glad I got my point across 😁 it's a stunning book and it's great having one on the bookshelf especially to share with grandchildren (so that they know about the book) but it's also so inspiring to work with and I do think Edith would be tickled pink to know that even 100 years after that people are using it in there own art projects.
I hope you really enjoy working with it 🌻
I first bought the Edith Holden books when my youngest, now 24, was in preschool and I used it as background in nature corners. Those first copies are falling apart now so I'm thrilled to be able to use them in a different way. I have to admit though that I was unwilling to pull them apart without having replacement copies. Fortunately I found replacement copies at a reasonable price, not an easy feat these days, and also purchased one for only about $6 USD in German (I was seriously pleased with myself with that one. 😄).
This was a really helpful video since I've never taken a book completely apart with the idea of using it in a journal. I'm really looking forward to more on this project!
Thank you so much, I'm glad you found it useful.
I've a really good copy saved in fact the pages are a different colour to the ones I use in junk Journaling.
I love using it, I was so happy to rediscover it I had totally forgotten about it 🌻
I so desperately need to get myself one of these beautiful books!! ❤️❤️
Definitely 🌻
How do I take a soft cover Edith Holden book, it’s all glued together ugh… ❤️
I'm not sure to be honest I will have to give it a go
I love the sorting idea.. which I also do, but I do mix the images & books they originated from. Do you keep all the various sources separate like that? And from there do you put that back into the book cover or just in a different filing system?
No up to yet I've only done this with Edith.
With other books I've one of those folders with sections in it and I use a section per book.
I've a couple of books I'm yet to use but I will do them the same as Edith. Put they will probably be sorted into 2 (full images and ones to fussy cut, unless they have fabulous text) I just find it easier
Thank you for sharing your process Tania it was very helpful, I took all my pages out ages ago but wasn't really sure about categorising them. This will be my 1st Edith project and I am looking forward to it. I might start making some Ephemera on camera following your tutorials . I will definitely be following your process of putting the file folder together. Are you Edith ephemera videos in a play list Tania. I sent you a message earlier, thank you very very much for my goodies those envelopes are fab I love them 😍💕
That would be great if you did some videos doing them. Definitely post them in the Facebook if you do 😊
@@Tania-Tatttytreasure will do thanks 😍
Just home Alison.
The pieces I'm using in the folio I've put the links up in the Facebook group. I've also put the whole playlist link on it as well
@@Tania-Tatttytreasure thanks I will have a look, I forget to go on Facebook half the time. 😘
@@Tania-Tatttytreasure that's great I will make a start on some tomorrow, I hope work went ok for you 🙂
This is very inspiring, thankyou. I have a language of flower photo album which is really beautiful and in a similar vein, have you any ideas how it could be used? Obviously it does make a beautiful album as say a wedding gift but I’d like to be able to use it for journals, I’d love to hear your ideas on it. Thankyou for sharing, take care and stay safe x
You are so welcome! is that the book with buildings and flowers, i know ive had this book i just cant think what it is. if you join the facebook group (link in the description) you could take some photos of the book and put them on there and ill have a look :)
@@Tania-Tatttytreasure Okay, thanks will do that, it’s Penhaligon’s Scented Photograph Album, it’s called The Language of Flowers.
I'll see you over there 😁

What a great word 😂
@@Tania-Tatttytreasure i know, it is isn't it. I've used it a few times when I muck up sewing.
I think if you said it in an Australian accent it would be awesome 😂
