awwww thank you so much!! you are so kind!! I always so afraid about my English lol so thank you so much 🥹🙏🏻
In 1999 at an art show I'd entered, I saw my first "junk journal" (or altered book), enticingly placed in a glass display box, only two open pages showing. Oh how I wanted to see the rest of that book!!! That's when I started making them. I have purchased several junk journals since then from other very talented artists. I love each one. So beautiful. Yes, I page through them all the time.

Hi Francesca, I think it's part of being a creative soul that makes it natural to want to buy other journals from different creators. I really enjoyed watching you showcase their work and share some of your favourite aspects, features and journaling. It's very good of you to show them on your channel. Thank you so much for your creativity and inspiration. Best wishes🌸 xx

I do the same. I look at them as treasures and works of art. I will sit with a cup of coffee and pick one to leaf through. I study the colors, the paper, the beautiful sewing. I think about the person that made it and how wonderful their style is. I think about my journals and how I can improve them. I would buy so many if I could afford them. Each one is a work of art by a special person that made it with love and creativity. I love them all. Thank you for sharing these beautiful journals and your beautiful work. Hugs.❤

I have watched this video 6 times in the past 2 days. I am in love with this video! 🥰🤭 These journals are so amazingly beautiful. My favorites are the first one and the last one. I could spend hours, just like you do, just going through, looking at, and touching everything in that last journal. That is how I feel about the steampunk journal YOU made. I have watched that video so many times. Lol I am saving up my money to purchase one of your journals. I can't wait to have my hands on one of your amazing creations. 😊 I am new to the junk journal world so I wouldn't even know where to begin to make something as amazing as these, and your, journals are. Thank you for sharing these with us, they are very inspiring. I just want to keep watching this over and over. Lol. I hope you are having, and will have, a wonderful weekend. Thank you again. 💞

Yes, i buy journals from other people. I own 1 of Johnies journals. I love seeing & feeling the work they have in them. I have 5 from 1 9:56 they are all different. No one does the same thing even if they are journals. I had one i was using, had a quilt cover & I knocked over my glass of root beer. The journal was ruined with this spill. I kept it for a while trying to dry it out, but that didn't work. I was very sad about & I did have to throw it out..😢 Thank-you for sharing some of your purchases with us. They are all stunning.

What an excellent video! I used to wonder WHY I would buy a handmade journal. Then I won a journal. And won another. They are precious to me. So I bought one from a favorite maker. They are all precious. I think it’s really good for a KZreadr to cross-pollinate the community like you have done. I wish more tubers would talk about the channels they watch and love.

@@JunkJournalJoy Yes, insight is the right word. There’s a little group of people I came across on YT. They supported others, they showed things they received more than they showed their own work. It was unusual and refreshing. I try to recommend good channels when I can, tho it’s something most people don’t do. There was a lady who featured a channel she liked once a week. It’s a kindness.

Hi, these are very very beautiful journals! You must be a proud owner and enjoy them in your possession. I'm the same, bought several beautiful journals from creators and I buy them with every intention of using them until they arrive at my place, then I'm like, auw.. wow, I can't use them, that would be ... almost like destroying the beauty and effort that was put in creating them.. I don't think I can make them prettier than they already are.. although they are mine now and I can do whatever I want with them but... mmmh, 😁😊🥰... so then I'm like.. I'll just keep them safe to enjoy their beauty and having them in my possession and flipping through them from time to time for inspiration and joy and fun and.. you know what I mean 😂 I do use one or two to write in and doodle and paint and create lovely pages but they started as a blank canvas with a lovely and beautiful cover, I can make them mine on the inside of the journal, there is a difference 🤣 Enjoyed your video very much, will be flipping through mine very soon again, thank you for sharing!
