Hand Made Garden Journals

[GringoVlogs]

Wow, this journal is simply beautiful. It's like a world in and of itself. I feel like if I were holding that journal, I would be holding a significant piece of the garden. One question, how long does it take you to make a journal of that caliber? :)

Keep making journals. This is so inspiring!

@GringoVlogs Thank you. How nice of you to say that. As for how long -- I don't quite remember -- two or three days, probably. Not working full time at it, of course.

@NJGardengirl1961 Hello and thanks for commenting. I think a professional gardener needs a hand made garden journal!

great detail ... amazing journal.

[nightcats]

Thank you This was one of my favorite projects, possibly because I had never seen a garden journal and had to learn everything from scratch.

I love your work....... wish I had a friend that liked scrapbooking also... it would be nice to get such wonderful gifts that someone spent so much time making. We understand what goes into the making of such things:) I watched the album you made for a young boy also...... you are so sweet. TFS!

Thank you for your lovely compliments.

These are absolutly beautiful! i would love to make one similar to have to document the birth of our son in febuary i think that would be an amazing way to keep the memories from the hospital and his first few days of life. Now to only find the energy to do it :) lately just putting my socks on makes me tired but hopefully i can make one because these are so creative and beautiful! you did a very nice job on them.

[nightcats]

Thank you! And congratulations on your baby. How exciting. I can appreciate how tired you must be - but the book you have in mind would certainly be a wonderful keepsake. You could add little shaker boxes to hold items such as a lock of hair, etc.

[allbeauty19]

Thats a wonderful idea! im excited to try it now only to come up with the ideas for all the pages!

[nightcats]

Good luck. Will you be posting a picture when you are finished?

[allbeauty19]

Thank you :) yes i will. Im hoping i can finish it on time and come up with enough page ideas to get it done

Now I really want to get a Bind It All!! These journals you made are absolutely beautiful. I really enjoy the rustic/grunge theme. The garden tools you made are super, super nice----you are so creative!! I'm not a gardener either but I doubt I would have ever thought of that. So cool---thanks for posting the video.

[nightcats]

Thank you so much for your kind comments. Actually, the garden tools idea came from a book, Scrappin' With Wire by Design Originals Can Do Crafts by Julianna Hudgins. Maybe Santa will bring you a Bind It All

[nickelnook1]

Very nice gardening journals! You thought of everything! Thanks for sharing!

[nightcats]

Thank you!. Actually, I asked my crafting group for suggestions as to content. I am not a gardener myself and wasn't too sure what to include.

[nightcats]

Thank you!
