I created this journal to use to record nature and bird life in my garden.

I love that your "journals" truly are journals as you have lots of pages on which to write in addition to the pages with such lovely ephemera. And I really like the way you did the binding and wrap on this one. Thanks so much for sharing your talents!

Thank you. I like to actually write in my journals so I do try and leave a good bit of writing space. I am making another nature journal at present for a friends birthday so I think I will use that method of closure again as I really like it too. Tfw Chrissie :)

Both these journals are very special. The new one, in particular, is so inviting. I love the binding and the wooden beads and the whole look of it. It's important to record aspects of our lives, and this journal, even before you've written in it, is a already a treasure! TFS!! xx

I love the sound of paper too and the smell!!! The crackle! I even love the word "crackle"! And scissors! I love the sound of scissors at a material factory cutting through material on their table hee hee :) Chrissie, this little nature journal is just beautiful... I love how your talent shows through in your creations!

Hi Rhonda, wish that was rain....we need it so badly but alas...it was just the breeze and a not very good quality of sound on my camera lol! I love that coptic stitch...it is so rustic. Have you tried it? TFW Chrissie x

Hi Chrissie, another lovely rustic booklet that brings back the feelings of wonderful days gone by. I'm like you about the sounds of paper rustling, the pen and ink being scrawled across the page, the sound of paint brushes being swiped across paper etc. I'm mezmerised by those sounds & they make me feel very relaxed. I also like the sounds from your garden in the background of your videos :-). Tfs Kathy from Boston

Hi Chri.ssie, I love your journal. I should make one for myself as I spend all spare moments in the garden and have so many pictures and thoughts from doing so. As winter approaches here I strain to remember the warmth and the experiences and a journal like yours would be just the right medicine for the winter blues to come. So nice to hear the birds in the background of your video. God Bless Cathy
