I feel so sorry for those who took their time into making their own journal to find out that Alex is selling journal 3 for $12.66

I literally cried when gravity falls ended

I'd use a blank book and use it as a sketchbook.

There's probably someone obsessed with the book you used and found this video. They would scream at the screen until their lungs explode.

Instead of getting a blank book and adding Ford's notes, make it your own Journal, with whatever you want to write in it, like drawings, scripts, whatever you want.

They are realising a replica of the journal with all the pages inside next year so I can't wait for that

I'M REWATCHING ALL GRAVITY FALLS EPISODES AND PAUSING EVERY TIME I SEE THE INSIDE OF THE JOURNAL AND WRITING EVERYTHING

You: working hard to do it Stanford: a book and a sticker 🤣😂

Imagine making this with a blank book, writing down some of the gravity falls secrets then hiding the book in a hidden place ( somewhere a person could stumble over it ) that would be the creepiest/awesomest prank ever!!

I think Alex Hirshe said he would be selling copies of the actual journal #3 in 2016 Every page shown in journal #3 will appear in the book

Kind of sounds like It's dipper's voice teaching us how to make a journal.

Man I miss this show.

THE AUTHOR OF THE JOURNALS... LEWTOONS

So Anne River Siddons is the author of the journals?

If the author of that book watched this video I really do not think she'd be happy

Thumbs up who like gravity falls

I would get a book that I use for notes in school and use number 1 for science an math and 2 for history and 3 for decorations

If I made this I would get a blank book and make up my own creatures and spells and notes!

Him: ducktape Me: *gasps * *DUCKTECTIVE*

I CAN'T BE THE ONLY ONE WHO FELT BAD FOR THE BOOK.

+LewToons This is awesome. You should do more Disney D.I.Y (and call it D.I.sne.Y

I can do this in 4 steps Step 1 Open you PC Step 2 go to amazon.com Step 3 order the journal 3 bookthen waith for like a month Step 4 open the box and boom you have a journal 3

I got the actual one but got a plan red book and did this then rewrote the book

This book is amazing! It looks more realistic then the ones they sell on Amazon! My younger brother is a big fan of this show, I'll be sure to make one with all of the pages inside for his birthday!

I wish you guys could see it in real life! Looks even cooler than when on film :D

Even though there will be legit copies released next year, but it would be awesome to have my own! :)

Cheesy love story you say? Hmm.. *COUGH* twilight *COUGH COUGH*

I love it it would help me remember that even though the show ended it still lives on....... forever. :)

This was such an awesome idea and you did a great job executing it!! :D I actually had a wood-shop class and made the 3rd journal's cover on a block of wood (painted and all) and it now proudly sits on my computer desk in my room! :3

I'm definetly going to be making this. Sadly, I'll have to miss the locket off as I haven't a clue where to find something like that. But I can do the rest. This is going to be exciting. I'm getting my Dipper costume ready for Halloween.

This is a great recreation of the Journal, I'm ordering Journal 3 online so I can make 1 and 2 myself with this method. Tysm!

did anyone notice did he said "Dipper Fines"?

Really useful, thanks m8. I'll be using it for my Bill Cipher cosplay.

Drawing Gravity Falls character's as STAR WARS CHARACTERS!

Mine has come out AWESOME! I chose a blank notebook and painted it red. Then traced my iPad for the hand on gold paper. Then added all the details. Mine only costs 2 bucks for the notebook. My mom is an artist, so she had all the materials.

I wish I could do that...

Did you not know that they'll be releasing a canon Journal #3 in 2016?

That is freaking awesomazing.

That gravity falls journal is amazing great job.

I'm soooo pleased to find another grown up who likes gravity falls! lol 😋

Whoa that's really cool! I can't wait to make mine and add the realistic journal pages to it! Can you make Mabel's grappling hook next? =0J

that episode last night, damn

Great job making Gravity Falls Journal number 3 will journal number 1 & 2 be joining?

While I didn't watch much of Gravity Falls, I do wanna make this book as a sketch book(which means I would have to buy a hardcover sketchbook specifically for it)but this was a good tutorial for when I eventually do this!

My brother and I are big fans, and I think I just found an easy Christmas present for him...:) Something to keep in mind for the future I guess...

0:56 The Kragle!

thankfully alex is releasing a full replica of the journal

HERE'S A TIP: the real jurnols are more washed out and old looking so take some very light brown paint and gently paint the cover of it, it helps!

hi Chad I have been subscribed to your channel for 2 years

That looks so cool! :D I think I'll try this out in the summer when freedom is my friend!

dude dude..... now thats a gravity falls journal, great work

Aww that is beautiful

I seriously want to but a red sketchbook and make this to fill it up with doodles of Gravity Falls, Steven Universe, and a couple of other fandoms.

I wanted some nostalgia in 2019

My mums getting me the actual journal with fords notes in it on Jan 3 and my friend is getting me a journal which is plain AWESOME

I'd honestly make one of these for myself over buying one - it's more fun! Nice tutorial!

Or you could buy it on amazon from the creators of Gravity Falls that has cool details and new pages 180 pages in the book to be exact

I am getting the Journal #3 for my next birthday since its release date is near to my birthday :D I am so exited but I think I will make my own to... write my own notes in it? XD

I followed this tutorial 4 years ago, and now I may be recreating another journal this year.

Love this because I love gravity falls

I like how it has 6 fingers xD

I got the exact replica of the journal for only $15

Im so happy I stopped crying for months that gravity falls is over. Cause the creator said there might be a reboot or season 2 but if it's a reboot I think it should be called Gravity Rises

i love those gravity fall journal´s good job!

I shall make 1 2 and 3 to give them to my 2 best friends 😊

Alex Hirsch : Journal 3 ccoming in 2016!

This is awesome! Luckily, Alex Hirsch is releasing an actual journal in July! IM SO EXCITED!!!!

Wow, looks better than i expected.

I'm going to use a your method but make mine look different.

I love the way you made the book and I understand that many fans love this tutorial, but that was a bit disrespectful to the book and author...

This is so cool! Wanna know a trick? If you paint over the pages with white acrylic ghesso, you'll have a good blank canvas to draw on. (I learned this from someone who does this to get rid of the lines in those school notebooks. Sweet!)

I made a blue one from the episode "The last Mabelcorn." the blue Journals in Ford's dream.

I'll buy the original, cuz i wanna know the secrets!!! 😱😱😱😍😍😍😍🔒🗝🔓

I can't wait to make my journal I all ready have the book thanks for the inspiration!!!

This turned out so well!

this is awsome! its not that hard if you think about it

this will go geat with my dipper costumed

Omg and he sounds like a slightly older Dipper!!!!😭🥺🥺😭😭

I really liked this because all the journals you buy have gravity falls journal three written on it

He has the KRAGLE

The author of the journal.......Chad from lewtoons.

This brings back so much Memories I rember doing this when I was 5 years old ahhhh

Nobody knows how much I love graivity falls

Awesome job!

2:47 the hand has five fingers (not including the thumb!) not cartoony at all

That's pretty neat looks like my journal back in gravity falls

I made one using a blank journal with a leather cover and it looks awesome!

I just print out photos and glue it on a journal

Did anyone cry when he ripped out pages of the book?

I just got my journal in the mail today! So happy! iiiiiiiii!

I'm getting the "Journal 3: Special Edition" in a few days :D

Woah! This looks amazing! 🔥

i made this in the 8th grade. I am about to graduate and i still look back on when i used to adore this show.

It looks wonderful

When I was on a cruise ship, I actually found Journal 3 in the library area, and I was looking at the young adult books since I'm a teen and my older sister pointed it out to me and I was like "heck yes!"

Take the official Journal 3, use dark red leather and a glue gun. Use an exacto knife to make the hole for the hand. Rip the leather by hand or if needed, use scissors for the rips. Use the gold paper to make it like actual gold (or if you want a 3D feel like me, take an illustration board and coat it 3 times with gold spray paint for the hands and corners), do the gold beads thing and rip the cover where the fake rips are using scissors or an X-acto knife. Also use the bland bookmark ribbon Alex gave you for the standered edition and buy a monacle and tie the bookmark around it. Add the bookmark with the tassels (tasos?). Once you're done, go on the internet to find all blacklight pages from any lucky person who has the limited edition. I used a cheap blacklight pen to copy every single thing. BOOM! Super-limited modded Journal 3 made with the standered edition anyone can make. Show your friends and keep this Journal away from people with glowing yellow eyes.

Oh my gosh I love gravity falls thanks to showing me

I don't know what to say...I...AM...AMAZED

When i buy the real original journal that was written by alex hirsch his own hand and was spread on the world... It cost 35 dollars but it was WORTH IT ITS REALLY COOL!!!! And the page that you shown us on this video... Its on the original journal too! One day i hope they will make journal 1 and 2, i will buy them instantly!

This looks so good
