Welcome back to my channel.
Start of a new month, so I thought I would do a bit of recycling. I have so many paper bags, packaging and of course all the Amazon packaging that comes with one little tiny order! Not that I am complaining as it all goes to go use!.
I have made a paper bag journal, with envelopes and coffee stained paper. Please join me as I make it up as I go along, but love the result.
Some of my most used items I have on my desk.

Love the mandarins - If you cut the top off the corner pocket and add lace - it looks like a jackie band!

Wow I'm really loving it too. That was a really wonderful video on making a journal. I have so many ideas for journals I'd like to make and having a few of these ready-made journals is a great idea. Also a great idea to make my coffee stained paper before winter comes with cold weather. Although we are very lucky here and Albuquerque we don't have terrible Winters. Thank you so much for this video

Looks wonderful for a "Let's try this". Watching you makes me think "I got this.. I can do it also." Some days a good thing others not so good, but can be good for a laugh. You can make me get out of my comfort zone, even if I fail at least I gave it a shot. Thank you.

Колко естетско е всичко, което правиш‼️Гледала съм десетки твои видеа. Харесвам този колорит - все едно имаш пред себе си нещо много старо и ценно, което патината на времето само е разкрасила.

Gi, your enthusiasm is so contagious ❤ Thank you for this video, it is so packed with inspiration and ideas just keep generating. Can not wait to see what you do with this. 😊 Just going to edit this comment from this morning! Oh, Gi and Andy, now look what you have done to us! I was all set to enjoy making this paper bag journal with the Nature papers. Then, my email brought info from you about the ko-fi Orange set for supporters. Printing as I type! Now I must make two paper bag journals! Thank you, more than you can know, for all your talent, sharing, and generosity. All 3 are so beautiful and begging to be made. ❤😊

OMG I LOVE this tutorial! I’m going to try this asap! Here is a little idea - I have a lot of Amazon packaging that are like padded with air bubbles envelopes, and was wondering if they could be used as a journal cover? It would give a different texture and feel to the cover, almost like some sort of upholstery instead of cardboard cover? Would love to see what would you make with it.

I love this idea of a grungy idea junk journal made out of a paper bag! 😍 This turned out so cute and I can't wait to see you decorate it. To be honest, I had to restart the video a couple of times because the sound of the paper was making me sleepy. This video was an awesome ASMR for paper lovers. 😅
