Excellent advice and information! So often I have bought items I thought I needed, but barely use! My daughter shops my hoard has she has just started junk journaling, so not all is lost! Blessed and healing days!

Since I do a lot of sewing and did a lot of card making years ago I have a lot of tools for crafting. If I don't have something and can't afford it right now, I figure out an alternative. Thanks for sharing this video and inspiration.

Hi Joie, this was a great video. If only it had been around when I was starting out! My worst buy was the Crafter's Companion Ultimate Pro, I wanted to make gift boxes but soon discovered many videos showing one how to make them simply by cutting/scoring. I had all the add ons that one could buy for it... and they all got replaced by better tools. In the end I gave it away to someone who was just starting out so they could have a go without spending any money. My best buy has been my paper trimmer, it's robust and has a range of interchangeable blades that can do scoring, decorative edges, perforations etc. I wouldn't be without it.

This was very informative, thank you. I thought you were a seamstress because of the beautiful seams you sew on your artwork. I have owned four sewing machines in my lifetime. (actually made my wedding dress) I am without one because I handed mine down to my granddaughter. I just need a small one so that will be my next purchase. Continued joyful journal journeys for you!

Good fabric scissors are super expensive, but they will last a lifetime if you keep them away from paper. Did you realize you can get a scoring blade for your Fiskars cutter? That would eliminate the need for your wooden score board, but it might not be as satisfying. Sometimes the sensory satisfaction makes a tool worth keeping. This is a great video, Joie. You are a natural teacher.

Hi Joie, Great video. Agree with all the tools as basics and or game changers. As a seamstress I would recommend a second hand sewing machine from a specialist dealer. They don’t cost much either and you can get a few lessons to get starting and they do repairs on the sewing machine if you need. Like you said, buy a mechanical one and you can’t go wrong and these are much longer lasting. The quality of the thread you use can make your life easy or difficult, the more expensive brands like guterman, are made of longer fibers and don’t break easily. The cheaper brands split, break and leave more fuzz inside your sewing machine, so you have to clean it. Oops, I could go on. I won’t, but a sewing machine is a spend and you can grow to love it, if it’s a good one or put it away and dread it, if it is disfunctional. Much love, Maud

This is really good advice - I’ve been junk journalling for a while and I’ve bought some really faddy stuff that I’ve only used once or twice. I have a problematic relationship with using book pages (I do it, but it has to be something I have no emotional tie to, even though I’ve got a lot of gorgeous, slowly ageing books - I’ve even bought modern replacements for my favourites so I don’t damage them further!) . I nearly had a heart attack when I saw the Rupert Annual pages in your journal 😱. My parents bought it for me every year when I was a child, I bought my own when they said I was too old and now my husband buys it for me every year - some how the colours, pictures and rhymes have always sung out to me. I’m 70 this year, so that’s 69 Annuals tucked away safely from scissor wielding hands!

Thank you Ems 💜💜

As a crafter, I think I must have all the new tools and gadgets before I create. But you have encouraged us to use what we have and only buy the necessities. By limiting our tools/supplies, I think it makes you more creative. Thanks so much for the time and effort in doing these videos. I like the lists that you make and they way you break it down step by step. Your video and audio is superb 👏👏👏. 💗😘

@@joiedefi you are welcome 💗. I don’t know how you could improve. Every video is fantastic! I just have to stop watching and get on with my journal. 😂

Loved the boxes😊. Perhaps I can find a way to relate it to paring down and really only keeping what I actually use. Thanks!!!!

That's a perfect application for this way of thinking, and it doesn't only work for craft items. Thanks for popping by to watch Jama 😊👍

I use my paper trimmer as a score board I move the blade out of the way and use a bone tool in the groove where the blade would cut.
