🌺 Forget-Me-Not Friday (Idea No. 13)

House of Mahalo - Where "done is better than perfect"

Hey there Reader

Happy Friday!

You know what that means... I have another Forget-Me-Not Friday idea for you!

This week's idea is Junk Mail Envelope Pockets with Side Tucks (inspired by Dee Dee Farago's 3 in 15 challenge).

Don't you just love how you can make so many different things out of simple supplies like junk mail envelopes and scraps?

I also remember umming and ahhing about adding the lace and eyelash trim at the time. I ended up loving how soft and textural it made them.

Here's my process video >>

And here's Dee Dee's original video, so you can see how these can be adapted to different styles.

So, what's next?

I've finished the Edith Holden ringbound journal I showed on video before (flip through coming soon), but I still have book pages and ephemera to use up.

So... I'm going to use some Edith Holden book covers to make 2 writing journals and a folio with flip-outs and other interactive elements. Stay tuned for those!

Other than that, I have a few blog posts I want to update and some new ones I want to write. Hopefully, some of those will be ready by the time next Friday comes along...

As always, I want to say a huge thank you for your support and being a part of my little community. I absolutely love all this crafting malarkey and the fact that I've found so many people who love it as much as I do makes me very happy indeed.

Speak soon, Justine xoxo

🌺 Forget-Me-Not Friday (Idea No. 22)

Hey there Reader Happy Friday! I hope you're ready for another Forget-Me-Not Friday idea? This week, I want to go back to some basics and talk about tassels, spine dangles, spine jewellery, etc, which look a little like this: Now, there are lots of ways you can make these. But a few years ago, at about 3 in the morning, I discovered a super simple way to make them. Since then, I've been making my tassels in the same way every single time. You can see my exact process in this video. I really...

🌺 Forget-Me-Not Friday (Idea No. 21)

Hey there Reader It's me, hi, I'm back in your inbox again with another Forget-Me-Not Friday idea! So far, I've shared a lot of ephemera ideas (you can see all my previous emails here). But this week, I wanted to do something different. Sometimes, we need a mini project to sink our teeth into - especially when we're lacking in mojo for a large project or simply because we have leftover papers and supplies to use up after completing a big project. Anyway, this mini folio and matching notebook...

🌺 Forget-Me-Not Friday (Idea No. 20)

Hey there Reader Welcome to another Forget-Me-Not Friday email and idea! I hope you're looking forward to the weekend? I am because I'm going to be starting my Enchanted Woodland folio journal and I'm super excited about it. There's going to be lots of windows and flip outs and secret spots inside it, so stay tuned for that. For now, though, I wanted to share something inspired by window envelopes, which is where these simple yet super pretty junk mail envelope pockets come in. Here's the...
