Another great journal book. I love how you find old books with great leather materials. And a great hidden stitching technique. And I love your way of making a border when you don't have the preferred punch. Very clever!

Clever binding! I love how you've included all the images...it's like a picture book for grown ups. Beautiful!

Thank you so much for sharing. I wish there was a place around here where I can find old, old, old, beautiful books. I'm like you in I must use whatever is around. You make bookbinding sound so simple. Thanks again.

This is one of the prettiest and most well done vintage journal I've seen. I would definitely use that as a journal or a Commonplace book. I'm your mirror image - I LOVE writing but, although I've collected a lot of materials for junk journals and have ideas on what I'd like to make, I have a really hard time doing the making. After several years of angst over this and especially for bullet journal use, I'm purchasing ones with the basics already inside (just purchased my first Hobanichi Cousin Avec) and plan to decorate blank areas with ephemera from my life. I'm 68 and have inherited amazing photos, newspaper clippings, etc. going back into the early 1900's. They've just been sitting in boxes but I'm determined to work them into books that I actually will use. Thank you for a wonderful presentation.

I love it!!! So many great ideas. I do my bindings on the cardboard. I never could get my inside covers to look right. Now I see what I need to do! Thank you.

Your journals are breathtaking, You put a lot of heart to Your crafts, I do envy You such beautiful old books You rescue using Your geogous hands, thank You for sharing, hugs and kisses:-) Shane

Love all the vintage images, tucks, and edge finishes you used. Just beautiful! tfs

Oh my! Simplicity at its finest!!! Such a lovely book filled with awesome images. Perfection! :)

I also agree I love making journals, and I always say I'm going to use them, as much as I do like to write I'm not a big written in journals, however I love to decorate them, write scriptures, quotes, etc..but not on everyday life😁 lol, I like all your journals and enjoy your videos, thanks for sharing.

Sooo awesome Debbie, I love it!! Thank's for sharing! I have been gathering my supplies as the junk mail comes in, so I can make my own junk journal.. I've almost got enough to start my book.. woohoo!!

Very nice journal Deb! Have fun filling it up! TFS! xo

I like the mix of papers you used and beautiful images...thanks for the tips on the hidden binding, will have to try that TFS Melanie :)

Your Junk Journal are absolutely superb !

Thank you for showing how to make the hidden binding and using the phone book. Your journal turned out beautiful.

This journal is absolutely exquisite. Thank you so much for the tips.

Love this!! The brown edge design is fab!!!

Beautiful book! Thanks for the tip about using the phone book. It's brilliant! No more wonky hole punches for me!

Debbie, love the book, it's beautiful. I too am not a writer, just a collector of beautiful books someone else creates. Although i enjoy making them as well. TFS ~ leslie

Awesome, awesome way to do a hidden spine. Thank you for sharing.

Wow, absolutely beautiful!!! Love it!!! TFS...

Brilliant tip for the hole punching jig. Many thanks!

I am so in love with this book! thank you for sharing!

Lovely journal. I also like the binding. TFS.

Thanks for sharing....I think I'm in your boat....love making journals but not great at journaling at all. I also laughed about having rubber stamps ...I don't use mine either. But, I have an idea for folks like us... I'm going to make a stamp journal so I can look thru it as I work to see if there is any thing I want to use in the journal I'm making at the time. We'll see if I turn my idea into an actual book or not.....it will be a lot of work....I have a ton of stamps. Big hugs....I'll be watching....deb the RN...on YT.

So beautiful! Thank you for sharing.

Really clever and I love the binding!! Thanks!

I love this! It's wonderful. Thanks for sharing!!

absolutely gorgeous

just love your work. Never done myself a single thing, I'm not the creative type when it comes to crafts ;-) I'm just a bit good with photography though. I'm thinking about a Junk Journal with some of my favorite musician's lyrics, including some of my photos. Your Journal gave my some lovely ideas. Thanks so much for sharing :-)

Just the type of information I was looking for! Thanks for sharing!

Thank you soo much for showing how to put the book together. It is awesome! 👏👏👏

The phone book is such a wonderful tip ...thank you and Beautiful Journal

Beautiful book! Thank you for sharing the basics for newbies like me

Very informative and beautiful!! Thank you for sharing.

Beautiful book, I love this.

Beautiful work here. It's a shame to call it a junk journal! I've made these for years (and in person and online class on them.) I've always thought of it as Book Rescue :)

Great job. Now to get some books and use old textbooks that I have. I can use the papers from the book to cover envelope journals and the like and stain them, age them.

beautiful i love all your ideas !

Very cool. Thank you for the tips.

Beautiful work thank you for sharing x

WOW, i love this journal, i really like the hidden binding, i will have to try this.. tfs...Yvonne :)

This jornal is by far my fav that ive seen on youtube (and ive seen lots) its very eclectic but still manages to maintain blance throughout the entire journal. Looooove it... you should sell them if you dont already hun.

Brilliant! I'm going to give this a try! TFS

WOW.. EXCELLENT IDEA ON THE SPINE BIND...LOVE IT

love it

thanks for sharing your work it is exquisite Also your tip using the phone book was just the answer I needed to one of my stumbling blocks :) I hadn't seen that before ...I am only just starting out cheers

So beautiful

Very useful tips. Thank you. Beautiful journal

beautiful

I am like you and these images are just breathtaking. I would not be able to use it either. I would love to be able to just pick it up any time I wanted and enjoy looking at each and every page. I love the idea of the tuck spots throughout the journal. The coffee stained pages are wonderful. Shakespeare is the perfect name for this journal. It has the feeling and look of that time in history. Where do you find the amazing images? Thanks for sharing your talent with us.

GREAT JOB !!!!!!!!

Great journal.

If you had a book fair or store I would love to buy your books your junk book is so amazing :D

I have never made a junk journal, and this is so beautiful I feel overwhelmed at starting! Where is the best place to buy an awl?

Your journals are great! I am new to your channel and I am enjoying seeing your junk journals. I have a question. Do you have a tutorial on what you do with the original pages in a book? How do you remove the pages so that you can just use the cover?

Very nice!

Thanks for sharing this gorgeous junk journal video, it's great to see all the lovely details and bits 'n' pieces that you have used to decorate and embellish the insides with. I love all the vintage postcards that you have included too, and I'm hoping to find some of them to print out too. Thank you for mentioning, below, where to find them.

I read all the comments to make sure my question had not already been asked. Like everyone else, I think your junk journal is wonderful. Thank you, from a newbie,for all the great ideas. when you sew your signatures onto the plate, do you start from the middle and work your way out or from one edge over to the other?

Love this journal a lot.. simple but your images are to die for.. do you use paper to print them or cardstock.. thanks for sharing.. love you work a lot. and thanks for the phone book tip.. this is great

I am a new beginner. Is all the signature's papers coffee dyed?

How do you punch the hole through the front and back of the book to attach your ribbon closure? Do you use a special tool? Thanks and beautiful journal!!

Love this! What glue did you use to attach you pizza box with the signatures to the spine of the book?

Sooo cute, great job. What kind of glue did you use on the binding?

Where do you get your images from please?

Awesome job, what type of glue did you use to hold the book spine to the signature pizza box spine? TFS

Well I had to add this one to my "Favorite Journals" playlist! Amazing! I love everything about it. Want to sell it? lol I also love your images. Are most of them purchased or just found on the Internet? Beautiful work!

Very nice journal. What kind of glue did you use for your binding.

I am wondering how you put the book pages in. Do you tape two single pages together so the tape is in the middle of the signature? Or what

I love juck journals they should be chunky

Where did you get your awl?

Why not art journal in there? Add your own small art works and gesso the brown paper and do art work on it ? You could make it a really simple water color art book that would be just beautiful! Oops this video is a few years old you probably have already done something
