 Hello everybody, welcome to my channel, it's Iwa from Bohemian Crafting and I'm coming today with day 2 of 100 days of projects for Junk Journals It's inspired by Margaret from 7 Plaza and I really enjoyed the first day, so I hope I'm gonna continue with enjoying day number 2 In second day, Margaret created a paperclip dangle she did used large paperclip, that's what I do have here and then she used all kind of beautiful yarns I do not have yarns, so I decided to use this butcher twine or string as one of the colors which I will be using on my dangle and the second things which I would like to use is this one I had this on a beautiful spool a long time ago but then my friend came with children and they put their hands on it and it did end up like this so I'm gonna kind of like, you know, pull a few strings I do believe I can pull a few strings Margaret cut her yarn in 24 inches, I think like but then she folded it and cut it and I think she end up with 12 inches the leg of the strings I'm guessing so that's what I'm gonna be cutting 12 inches of the string and I'm not sure how many I will pull out, but 12 inches of the chain and of course I'm gonna be using again book pages to create beads and some kind of decorations on my dangle so I have managed to pull out three chains in the leg of 12 inches and I do have here five strings again in the leg of 12 inches from that butcher twine to string I'm gonna be using same nearly similar technique that Margaret used she grabbed all her yarns put them into one bunch and then slide them through and wrap them around her paper clip I'm gonna take always one string and one chain and start to put them in the kind of like row one next to another one string this way and on chain I will need to use jump rings and I just realized that I wanted, before I will continue to create that dangle I wanted to color the chains and paper clip as well for that I'm gonna take alcohol inks gonna put my chains here kind of like inking sheet I do have here my alcohol inking tool for dirty inking I do have here brownie alcohol ink and also this one I didn't try that yet it's alcohol pearls which I found on Amazon and I didn't try it yet and I want to try them this one so I think I'm gonna start with brown because that's kind of obvious light color first on my dirty tool but this one I'm using only when I'm making some kind of like very grungy inking so I don't mind if there will be you know few different colors I think I will need a little bit more on my tool and then to add this brownie ink onto my chain yeah I will need some darker color and I'm gonna add same color onto my paper clip ah it does look really good it's kind of catching same color but I really would like to try those alcohol pearls which I don't know what is it when it's black we will see I think it's only black color I'm guessing it's nothing happening bear with me there you go yeah it's kind of like grungy mix it's more like grey than black it's interesting color I have to say okay I'm gonna let this dry so I do have both of these kind of in the quite similar color I do have here my jump rings which I'm gonna be using for editing the chain to that paper clip and I'm gonna start so fold the string on half slide through this one and through to that loop slide the ends like on tax now I'm gonna take a chain catch it in the half I'm gonna pull out one jump ring just one please just one and with the jump ring I'm gonna fix my chain to that paper clip and I'm gonna take another string and again fold it on half and go next to that chain and fix the string and again I'm gonna go with the chain and so on so on till I will be with the last string and I do have my base so all these chains are kind of like between the strings I added kind of two and two strings on the sides then I do have chain chain here it got somehow mixed then are strings and there is one chain so that's what I do have here and now I'm gonna bring back my newspapers and I need to decorate this one somehow so first of course I'm gonna make a bead to create a bead from paper it's not too hard you just need some strip of paper yup, I'm gonna use this one it's better on beads than on this paper I'm gonna cut the strips not too big strips I'm gonna fold it on half fold it on half and cut the strips like this or I do have fold it on half so now I can actually cut it this way and here I'm gonna cut it on two pieces I do have here this bamboo stick or you can use maybe end of brush you can use a knitting needle you can use I'm not sure what maybe a large needle just try to use something what has beautiful circle-ish rounded shape and grab your piece of paper and create your own beads so you will start to roll the paper around the thing you choose to have as a base for creating the bead grab the glue add the glue on that paper and roll your bead slide it down and let it dry and grab another paper and do exactly the same I do have video where I created beads from all kinds of decorations for junk journals from book pages so I'm gonna link it down below you will see so many different beads how to make them so I'm gonna link that video down below for those who would like to see I'm gonna create few of my beads so here I am in the process of making my beads you saw me do something like this and I'm making also these little cuties and I just wanna show you how I make them if you wanna kinda copy the style so I ripped long strip of the paper so I cut a long strip of the paper and wrap it around this bamboo stick as a large kinda like tube and I'm leaving it on my stick this way go there so always moving that wooden stick and I grab my scissors and cut then I need because my scissors will squeeze it this way so then I need to kinda push it back on the stick like this to make it circulish again like a ring and once it's circulish like a ring it does have that hole in the middle I'm using a super glue and I'm brushing super glue over my bead the super glue gives to that bead the strong feeling so hold it still and soft and here on the ground so I'm adding this super glue on the sides and then once it's dry it does have this cute little bead which I can use on my strings later so I do have few of my beads done and I'm gonna flip through of the newspapers and try to find some images like here these large letters they can be perfect as a dangle as well I'm gonna be using this envelope with thicker cardstock to create background for it so first I'm gonna fast cut out that hole and glue it on piece of cardstock kinda layer so I'm gonna let this dry and then I will fast cut out the hole outside and inside as well I'm gonna have a look on some other images here as well and do kinda similar things and in the newspapers you can find so many things which can be used like decoration in your journals it can be just small small image on the pages like here this one with a 3000 holiday that can be perfect this can be perfect as a decoration this 20% off can be perfect as a decoration S here S letter S so I'm gonna fast cut out that letter S and go to have a look even more in my newspapers I do have cut out the letter O and a little bit took off piece of that newspaper but it looks good on the edges I'm using this nail file to sand the edges and make them nice and smooth it will help to make it look better inside it doesn't go exactly as I want but it goes a little bit so I'm smoothing edges on all of this and I found that some of these circles matching perfectly my circle punches so for the circles I'm using my circle punches and it does go much much better way actually you know if you do have the right tool for what you want to do so like here I found news so that I can fit into this I think it's 3 quarter of inch circle punch also I glue it on the piece of cardstock old envelope here I do have that letter S already glued on one piece of the envelope and I glue it again so I'm gonna fast cut out again just around the edges I did before like this now I'm gonna take this file and I'm gonna smooth the edges and sand the paper around so it will look more clean and it will make it will make my cuts look better and now I do have these on one piece of envelope and they are not too thick so I'm gonna glue them on a few more pieces that's why I'm glad that these circles are matching my circle punches because then it's much more easy to create embellishments using them so I'm gonna glue about 3, 4 these circles together and make my pieces look much much better thicker and heavier I think for now I'm satisfied with these pieces I'm gonna be using Distress Ink this is Distress Ink from Spectrum Noir Harmony line and this is Water Reactive dye ink and I'm gonna be using seal brown color if you don't have any Distress Inks you can always use some marker and very carefully, this can be very tricky very carefully to add the color to the edges of your pieces it will make them look finished so with marker carefully take your time just paint the edges the sides of your pieces it will give them really beautiful look but because I do have my Distress Inks I'm gonna be using that there is many amazing tools for Distressing, I'm using this one because I started to use it 7 years ago and I stuck with it, so not gonna change it but there is so many beautiful tools for Distressing the sponges, I used that sponge for editing alcohol ink so same sponge tool can be used for Distressing for using these Inks and editing color to the edges so with this I'm gonna make look make this letter look a little bit older and now I can start to make holes I can use some poking tool needle or this O which I'm using for making holes in my signatures or you can use any kind of hole punch I do have here this crocodile and I'm gonna be punching holes in the middle of the top of these pieces and then I will be able to add their jump ring and hang it on the chains here I'm gonna also used on few pieces like this, just small hole where you will decide and there are also supplies which can help you to create top coats beautiful effects on these pieces from newspaper one of these is this liquid glass something similar it's from Ranger it's called glossy accent so with this I'm gonna add a little bit of this liquid glass on my little circles hold it here with the needle and spread the liquid on my little circle and let this dry I'm gonna do same probably on all of these 3 circles and I'm gonna let this dry and then I will show you how it looks like and here is how your pieces from newspapers can look like with that glossy accent or liquid glass on the top so it can be really beautiful embellishment it's possible that 20% off but this one went really well and here do not touch it too easily here I touch that very easily and I get glued into that when there was just half dry that glossy accent so let it dry totally and it will make beautiful coat and I think I'm ready now so I'm gonna take my embellishments here on these some prints I can choose one of these chains and up there my little embellishment somewhere so I do have helped the paper beads or paper embellishments and now I'm gonna wrap the paper beads so I somehow messed up with this I do have one large and two small so I'm gonna take one of these side strings and go first with that small I'm gonna make a knot gonna slide there my bead and make a knot right under that bead like this I'm gonna take the second bead and do another knot and I'm gonna take that third one so I have tried to fit these beads here and I have to use hot glue gun to put a little bit of hot glue gun hot glue to hold the beads on the right spot because I made them on the bamboo stick so I'm gonna take the thread from opposite side and first I'm gonna make a knot somewhere here and I'm gonna take one of these smaller beads slide it there I'm gonna put right before the knot I'm gonna put small amount of that glue and slide there my bead and kinda like press the thread on the side of that bead it will be slightly off of the on the side but I don't mind that I'm gonna make another knot and move that knot close to that third bead here now I can take another bead and I think here I'm gonna put a little bit of glue inside the bead and just slide it over this way and I'm gonna make another knot take that last one slide it there, put that small amount of glue just a drop put that bead and make last knot this one, done so on this string I decided to add the bead to the end so first I'm gonna slide the bead on my thread then first I'm gonna do that bottom knot which will be under my bead which will be under my bead on the end of that thread right here now I'm gonna add a little bit of glue right here slide there the bead and now I can do the knot right next to that bead from opposite side much more easily because I do have that longer string just like that and I'm gonna continue and then I will show you how my dangle looks like I do have here a few more and this is my little dangle from newspaper and string so that's all what I'm gonna show you today I actually like it, it was quite some job but I love these, these looks amazing with that glossy accent so they are perfect, I do love this one it's great as well, I little bit screw up with this because I slide the top paper I color it the backside and I love these beads, these smaller ones looks awesome and because of the because of the super glue they do have nice sound these, because the top it's much harder than it will be if I will don't use that super glue to wipe it on the top so that's my sharing for today I hope I gave you some idea what to do if you will be missing some beads and you will need to create some embellishments, the newspapers can be really great background to find some interesting images thank you so much for jumping in today thank you so much for spending your time with me I hope you will join me next day on next challenge inspired by 7plaza 100 days project have a beautiful day, take care of yourself and I will see you soon, bye
