Oh yes, lots of fun. Pam at the Paper Outpost showed us how to make paper leather using brown paper bags and creme rinse. I'll have to try it with hand lotion just to see if there's any difference. Hope you have a great day.🌞

Thank you for showing us another way to make this paper. Such easier than I’ve seen on other channels.

This is gotta be the solution for those of us who won’t use their favourite papers but just get them out and stroke them, and then put them back! What a different technique, gotta give this a try! Thanks Gayle

Yes, the kindergarten students in our school, at Thanksgiving time, use a piece of brown paper bag and they squish it and squish it until it is like "leather", no lotion at all. They love doing it and decorate it with Native American symbols to tell a story.

Lol 😅😅😅 this was so much fun to watch!!! I’m so glad I inspired you to an obsession!!! I was laughing all through your video!! Thanks for the shout out!! Enjoy!!!

I think it is even nicer with jist little little oliveoil on your hands, like just a drop you rub in. The paper then is not so slinky, it is more fabricy and it shrinks more, smaller krinkles. I have done it with even just a little spritz of water or nothing at all. So much fun.

Thank you for showing such an easy way to make momigami. It was perfect for the my slow stitching. Greetings from Tasmania, Australia

Ok i tred this technic and still ripped a little but im excited to use it. Brown paper bags. O can put pieces on my gingerbread Christmas journal. Wish me luck. Huge hugs. Namaste 🐞🐞🐞

This is a cool technique! While watching you I pulled out a couple of 6X6 papers to give it a try. I think this is exactly what I need for some of the thicker scrapbook papers. Thank you Gayle for another interesting idea! By the way, I knew we were from the same vintage! LOL

Good Morning Gayle, “If there was wallpaper, I would have torn it off” 🤣😂🤣. I tried this once and used Rosemary Mint hand rub. It was just lovely. Thank you for the demonstration! ❤️💕❤️

grocery sack turns into faux leather Gayle :)

My husband just turned 70, too! We are 7 years apart. The only time we really notice our age difference is with music. ❤ This looks like a great project.

What great idea making a journal for my sister ongoing. To put my mothers favorite fragrance hand cream on Thanks

Can’t wait to try this! Looks amazing

This was so much fun to watch 😊😊

That looks so cool! I can hardly wait to try it. Thanks for sharing.

This is fun to watch can't wait to do some thank you

I have been waiting all week for this video! I can’t wait to try it!

OMG, I love this .. its brilliant, thanks for bringing it to us ❤❤

Hi Gayle, Thankyou so much for another fabulous video. I can't wait to try this technique xx

Love this idea Gayle I can't wait to try it!!

So fun! Can’t wait to try this! Hugs

So cool, I will try it out! Thanks Gayle! 🥰

Great idea, looks like so much fun. A must do. Thanks for sharing!

Love this project.. easy, with great results…right up my alley! Thank you!

Can’t wait to try this one. Thank you, thank you.

Hello Gayle, that sure was fun to watch, love your results. TFS💙

Yea! This looks so fun. I have a bunch of papers I don’t necessarily love, but with this touch, I just might. Thanks Gayle.

Oh wow!! This is just awesome! I love it! 👏👏👏 I think there should be a page in every journal too! Thanks so much for sharing Gayle and Ava too! 😊❤️

Thank you I really enjoyed your video and you made my day with all your Laughter and happy talk. Can’t wait to try this.

excellent routine to have fun in scrap and hydrate your hands 😅 very fun, Gayle ❤

Gayle - I really have to thank you for this video in particular and all of your videos, even if I don't quite keep up. I watched this with great fascination in the morning, it helped me stay calm in the end of the school year madness I'm dealing with. And then my pregnant daughter updated me in the evening with some possible complications with her almost-born baby and I could NOT fall asleep. I tried a bunch of things, including watching another of your videos, but nothing helped, until I thought "do some momigami!" and I did - and it did help with the regular scrunching of the papers, to relax me enough so I could sleep. All I can say is - thank you. It isn't "just" crafting - a lot of the time it's good medicine.

That's a super fun technique!!! Thanks for showing us how to do the momagami💜💜💜💜🤗

This would be so fun to do with the great grandchildren next time they come. Thank you Gayle

Gayle how fun! Can’t wait to try it. I think the red and gold paper would be lovely for Christmas

So exciting! 😁yes, feel-a-vision! Woohoo, l can’t wait to try this. 👋🤗💜

Something new and very interesting for me. Thank you very much. Looks like it could be a stress relief method as well.😊❤

Mind blown!!! POW!!! Going to try this today! I have loads of bath& body works how fun will this be?! Working on 2 dtp's rn that this might be perfect for! Thank you for always inspiring me! Thank you for showing me this!

OMG how fun is that!?! I must try this❤!❤

Hi and hugs to you Gayle 💕 Really cool technique and and I love the outcome. I hope today finds you and the family well, take care. 🤗Hugs

What a awesome idea 💡. Going to try it today as soon as I get back from the Dr. I was thinking the elephant journal as soon as you pulled that 1 sheet out. Thanks for sharing. Have a wonderful day and God Bless!

Hi Gayle. Just saw this on my feed and am totally mesmerized with this! Love the sound of “Smoky Poppy” lotion. Can you tell me where you purchased it? The thought of putting a sweet smelling and gorgeous sheet into my journals is taking my imagination to some wonderful places! TYS! Such a fun video

Good morning Gayle! This is pretty cool! Love how the papers turned out, I did think I could almost feel the softness. Gonna have to give this a try.

🌞 Good morning Gayle! 🌞 I can't wait to try this 😊.

I bet it would make an awesome journal cover? Love the technique 😊

Love love love! Fun fun fun! Tfs! Blessings my friend!💕

Gayle I have to say ,I wasn't expecting you to pull out the lotion!!! Cool project.💜💜💜

Fabulous tutorial. Looking forward to seeing what you do next with this paper. Blessings from Canada 🇨🇦

SO FUN...& soft, moisturized hands too!! ❤🤗🫶🏻🧴📜

What an amazing technique Gayle!! Thank you so much for sharing this, I can see a whole day play session in my future,😊. I don’t have a Lazer printer but I’m still going to try some digis with this. Have a wonderful day dear lady! ❤

Gayle! I love this! I crafted right along with you! You have to try file folders and paper sacks! They turn out fabulous!

Good morning Gayle! Ok, this idea looks addictive for sure! Can’t wait to get some free time to craft! Thank you for sharing 💖

☕️Good morning Gayle ❤😊. Thanks for sharing. This is fantastic!!!

Gayle, you were right! This video tease did not disappoint. I already have my lotion ready to go! Thanks for sharing! Cynthia

Oh cannot wait to try this!!!

This technique must go on my to do list! Fun fun fun! 😆 TFS! Hugs from South Dakota 🤗

Good Morning, Gayle. This was such a fun video. I am going to try this. Thank you for sending me down another rabbit hole!

This is so, SO fun I'll becoming back every so often, just to replenish my "sensory deprivation fix!"!!! And replenish my collage bits with my own obsession Yes indeedy! Thanks Gayle

Good morning Gayle! It’s 4a.m. Here and I’m tempted to get out of bed and grab some hand lotion! Lolol I was wondering if you could try that technique on a heavier decorative napkin. That could be super neat too! Thank you for sharing!! I’m definitely going to try this!!!! 😊

Oh how I want to try this. I'll have to find an alternative lotion though. It looks like a very satisfying process, and my curiosity has been satisfied on what the lotion was for. Thanks for the inspiration, sweet Gayle. ❤ Belinda xxx

You keep me busy Gayle 😂 my brain is whirling at the stash of body lotions I’ve accumulated and had planned on giving away, not now!

We’re in the process of moving so I had to save this one so I don’t forget about it. I love learning new things. Awesome!

Good morning Gayle,what a interesting technique! Thanks for sharing & have a wonderful week!🤗💜🌻💕

I watched this last night at 3 am and started doing it, it was 5 am when I thought I better go to bed, love this it, :)

Good morning Gayle. Thank you so much for sharing this awesome technique. I can't wait to try this. I would have never in a million years thought to put hand lotion on paper for such amazing results. There are some extremely creative and clever people out there!

I finally tried it, just waiting for it to dry, thank you, now I can use up my millions of hand lotions , ❤️🇨🇦

Love this idea❤️❤️❤️

Omg Gayle when you said it feels like leather you had me... i remember making Faux Leather Journal Covers that were a real process. I am so excited to try this to make one. Now my mind has gone wild with tons ofvmy papers and card stock. I love Tim Holtz and going to try his. I also have that paper pad from Hobbie Lobby and will play with that too. Thanks a bunch for sharing such an easy, cheap and fun way to play with our paper. You are the best girly.

Love this!!! ❤

OHHHHH...This is so cool!!! My closest Dollar Tree opens in 20 minutes, so I'm getting ready to go!

I've tried this before with no luck. The lotion on both sides was a missed part. You have more patience than I do. Bless you both I hope it's done soon. 🌹😍

Perfect for winter. Double duty for the lotion.

Hi Gayle, love that this paper technique has a name. I have been making it for years using hair conditioner. It has the most amazing texture, and now, thanks to you I'm excited to try lotion. Yippee!!!❤❤❤

Hi Gayle! I saw a KZfaq video by artist Robyn McClenden about a year ago demonstrating Momigami using olive oil and other cooking oils. I like your hand lotion version better because it’s less messy. The final results were similar to yours. The oiled,crunched up papers definitely felt like fabric. Thanks for sharing such a cool technique. ❤

Hi Gayle! I couldn’t catch up early like I usually do, had my granddaughters early this morning and this would of been a great thing for them to do, next time. Great idea, thanks TYFS. Have a great evening too. 👍🌸🌸👍

Thank you, Gayle, for showing us this technique! I've wondered how it was done. It reminded me of when I was teaching and I taught my students to take a piece of brown grocery bag or old-style classroom paper towel and repeatedly crumple it up until it was super soft. They loved it. I guess it was a stress reliever for them too. The lotion definitely adds a cool texture to the paper. (I had to put down what I was working on to join you. 😊) So many possibilities ! Have a wonderful day!

Wow can’t wait to try this.

Good morning ☀️ I love this technique and I’m looking forward to trying it. I’m off the to the Dollar store and to raid my vanity!! ❤

Love your work. Playing catchup.

Wow! That’s so interesting, going to give it a try for sure. 😊

That's pretty cool! I'm going to try it! I saw a lady rub hair conditioner on dried leaves to make them pliable! I don't know what she did with them but it impressed me b/c they were DRY. So fun! TFS🤗

Love this technique ❤

Good afternoon Gayle! 💕 Thanks for doing this so we can watch. 👍 Any problem gluing things down onto this? And does the distress ink stay on the paper and not transfer to hands, next page, etc.? Does hand cream work better than lotion? Does it leave greasy marks when laid on dry regular paper? Brain working overtime. 😂 I foresee Dollar stores all over the country experiencing a mysterious shortage of hand lotions. 😄 Have a great day everyone!💕

So so much fun 😊

I tried this last summer and loved the results. I used plain cardstock and then cut out layers to use on the cover of a journal and then glued a cool kitty button in the middle. I just loved how it turned out. I will say I scrunched my paper more times than you did but I really love the soft, fabric-y feel of the paper.

Love this idea xx

Good morning, Gayle! What a neat project. This would make a wonderful journal cover too! What about brown paper bags?

Omg it’s 330 am I’m going in and trying this out can’t wait to see it in the morning

I'm loving this, I was doing this with clear gesso. Created a gritty texture. This one is much cheaper too. ❤️.

I love this, can't wait to try it. I wonder how long it will take all the other channels to start showing us how to do it. 😂

This looked like so much fun....and you can use your favorite lotion which is a big plus in my book. Careful tearing wallpaper off of walls though girlie... You might get sent on an unwanted retreat LOL!

I would use decorative scissors cuts on the edges before crinkling with the lotions. Then you have decorative edges.

I used a coffee dyed onion skin paper, a piece of card stocky stuff and a piece of tissue paper with a metallic like design on it - cant wait to see how the dry. Thanks for the spark😃

Happy Birthday Mike! Fun how you met story🎉

I love this. I put fabric softener in a spray bottle and spray that on and then knead it. I like to use brown kraft paper. It will look like leather.

I love it when you said if there was wallpaper, I would've torn it off! 😂😂 People also use hair conditioner. I had forgotten this!

I Gayle! I watched a lady make faux leather. Packaging paper spritzed with water just damp, crinkle in the ball, spread the distress ink, and she used hair conditioner! Spread and crinkle. I used the handmade vintage paper you have and my goodnes layered on the faux leather is was like soft hide, like it was tanned. I will definately do this! Thanks for sharing!!❤

Makes me think “wax on, wax off” from Karate Kid 😂🤣
