DIY EPHEMERA ORGANIZER MADE FROM OLD BOOKS - EPHEMERA STORAGE FOR YOUR CRAFT DESK

Let's make a DIY EPHEMERA ORGANIZER FROM OLD BOOKS FOR YOUR CRAFT DESK!
Don't know how you feel about this, but every time when I've cut out a digital printable ephemera pack there is this tiny feeling of panic lol because I KNOW half an hour later my table will be a total mess and I won't find anything anymore. Time to solve this problem! In today's video I would like to show you how I made an ephemera organizer for my desk from some old books. I KNOW there are tutorials that maybe a bit more professional, my result looks like what I am - junky, grungy, chaotic. But it works!

    This is so cool. I saw it first on your Ocean Eyes video. Thank you for teaching how to do this so quickly! By the way 99% of the time your English is spot on. I truly appreciate how you tell us of your mistakes and how to avoid them. Not all instructors do that. That is an important part of teaching. Great job.

    Luise, you are a fearless and multi-talented craft person. I love your ephemera organizer, especially because you appropriately used old book covers to construct it. What a great choice to use your grandmother's old sheets in the project. Your English is right on. I live in the USA where we speak our own version of English. If anyone from the USA ever has the nerve to criticize your spoken English, keep in mind that the majority of US citizens can barely speak English; their grammar, pronunciation, understanding of the mean of words, use of multi-syllable words is embarrassing. Plus, only a small percentage of us can speak and understand another language. I recall seeing a poster in a school room, which read, "IF YOU SPEAK SEVERAL LANGUAGES, YOU ARE MULTI-LINGUAL. IF YOU SPEAK TWO LANGUAGES, YOU ARE BI-LINGUAL. IF YOU SPEAK ONE LANGUAGE, YOU ARE PROBABLY AMERICAN." Thank you for sharing your clever ephemera organizer. Be well and safe. Hugs from Alice in S. Carolina USA.

    Since mod podge is water based you could try using a bit of soap and water. Or saddle soap or a leather cleaner. Just go in very easy. Just test in a corner maybe or a baby wipe. Let it dry a few days and then try a finishing wax or a clear waxy shoe polish. Or a leather polish maybe even beeswax? I love this little organizer! Using unconventional materials for other purposes is my favorite thing to do.

    Luise, Push is away from something (like yourself) and pull is toward something (like yourself). I've watched a lot of your videos tonight and I am impressed with each one. You had me laughing so hard when I realized you were trying to match the directions in English to your hand movements from the German tutorial. I couldn't do what you do. I can only speak German when I am suddenly surprised. It must be in my DNA because I don't speak German. However, there have been a few times when something happened that completely startled me and German came out of my mouth.

    Luise I enjoyed this holder. I am not sure, by now you may have heard this before about the turning of color, I would more than likely think the stain that was used on these books were the reason for it coming back to the original color. The stain was there but faded out. Mahogany wood does the same thing and once stain you never really get it out. Your project turned out great. I always enjoy your unique ideas.
