What a great idea to start at the very beginning, actually sourcing the book. Look forward to seeing it transform.
Thanks Janet! Why don’t you join me in this little project? 😃
If you are mindful of where the signatures are, removing pages from a book that is sewn is pretty straightforward. Each signature is typically 4 to 7 pages. (That is 4 to 7 pages folded in half, with the stitching down the center, making 8 to 14 pages in the book, if that makes sense.) If you find the center of a signature (where you see the stitching), it's easy enough to take out that entire page. Then, from there, you can count back a page or two and remove another page. Once you've carefully torn it out on one side, you should be able to easily remove it from the other side. Then, move on to the next signature and repeat.
What a amazing place. None of our thrift stores are that nicely organized and clean! I'd be there every weekend!
Wow! That's an awesome store! Nothing like that near me. I would have needed a whole day just to look at the books! Next time you go, I'll give you a list 😉
Haha yes, Im very Lucky to have this near me so I can go anytime 😃
I did see a tablet I wish I had...so many beautiful furniture 😍😍
It was heaps of fun to watch you explore the store! Looking forward to this new series. 😊🌸
Thanks Aleksandra. I hope you join in! 😃

Thanks for taking us along to the thrift store. I saw several books I would have purchased if I had been there with you. Can’t wait for this new project!! 😘😘
Thanks sweetie! Lucky it’s very close to where I live so I can go there anytime I need something 😃
Am so excited for THIS!!!!!!!!
Fun to see a goodwill from another country. Mine are much more crowded, and junky!
So thrilled to follow you!!! ♥️
I loved going on your shopping trip! It’s so neat seeing a different country! Armchair travel!
Jaja thanks Glenda! I hope you join me in this project! 😃
Thanks for showing us your process in picking out a book! It was so helpful.
Very exciting to go on this altered book junk journal journey with you. Thank you for sharing.
What a wonder secondhand shop!
So that is a thrift store. A mass of treasure, Thank you so much for taking us with you, Looking forward to this series 😁👍xx😁🇬🇧
I'm so jealous! I'd love to have a store like that to look through.
What an amazing place!! I’d never be away from there 😍😍
Really looking forward to watching this series as I want to try my hand at an altered book. Thank you in advance for these tutorials on how to make one. ☺♥
Very cool factory.. thanks for showing us since the very beginning of how to pick the book 👍🏻
Really enjoyed following you to the good will store!! Looking forward to the rest of this series!!
I am looking forward to this series! Great second hand shop!

What a great store--so organized! I love when you take us on a tour! Also--so helpful to see your thought process when choosing books.
Thanks Amy! I hope you join me for this project! 😊
@@49dragonflies I will! can't wait!
Excited I’m gonna try this with you
Awesome! Have fun with this! 😃❤️
Yes, I think I will join you on this altered book adventure! Sounds Fun! I’ll go find a book! Please list supplies that we will need! Thanks 😊
Awesome that you are joining me! I hope you have fun dining your perfect book. You will just need some glue, distress ink if you want to make it vintage, papers to decorate the pages, scissors. Not sure yet what we will do with the cover.
Holy COW what an fantastic place--nothing like our Goodwill stores, that's for sure. Lovely, lovely.
Love going to the goodwill. They really do have a lot of books where I live. Thanks for sharing.
So glad you are doing this I really want to try this out. Lovely to go out with you 😊
Awesome that you will be joining me! Enjoy finding the perfect book! ☺️
I look forward to future videos on this new project. Love the goodwill, such a big space. We have one similar near me and it's amazing what you can find.
Thank you so much for that small virtual tour of your goodwill. It was interesting to see all the things they sell there.😃
My pleasure! ☺️
This is a wonderfully and helpful series. I enjoyed watching how you select your books. I particularly like how you describe in order the way you fold, count, and tear your pages. Yesterday, I found a perfect book at Dollar tree and when I was ready to begin working on my journal, I started reading this delightful novel, so I couldn't tear it up! Back I went to Dollar Tree and found another book to use. I have finished your first two videos, making my journal along with you. Now I am ready to begin the 3rd video and doing the fun stuff! Thanks so much for helping me start my first journal adventure. I love your site.
Thank you so much! Have fun on your journal adventure! ❤️
Wow I wish my good will shops looked like that, so beautiful.
What a beautiful Goodwill to shop in, thanks for bringing us along with you. It was interesting to see all the other shoppers “masked up”, just like here. Excited to start this new altered book with you.
So happy you are joining me Marybeth! 😃👍🏻❤️
That was a great shop! I wanted to stop and look at the furniture and glassware too! I am going to do this project with you. I have my book all picked out.
Awesome Janet! So happy you are joining me! 😃
I have the perfect book to follow. Thanks for sharing such a fun project 😍🌴
Awesome!!! See you in the next video! 👍🏻😃
This video was so helpful to me! Thank you so much!
My pleasure! ☺️❤️
I like that when you're walking in the store,that I'm not getting motion-sickness lol (I appreciate that greatly) 😊
I tried my best! 😃
I like this idea Barbara! Looking forward to the series! I can't believe you passed up on those beautiful marbles covers they were beautiful. My grandparents had all these series of books like readers digest, and I think I remember some with marbled covers. 😍🤩🥰
Thanks Laura, I hope you join in! 😊. I put those marbles books high up so they are not so visible 😂
I'm so jealous! That store is amazing! I could spend all day there.
I’m very spoiled have this store near me! 😬
Longing for the days when it feels safe to rummage through my local thrift shops again! As it is when I see your selections I try to search them out in on line used bookstores sometimes with reasonably success and without exorbitant shipping.
I hope you can go to your local thrift shops again soon! ❤️
That Goodwill is amazing!! I would be in there forever!!
Haha I know, Im very Lucky to live close to it! 😃
Thank you for all the wonderful information...I even took notes, to go and buy a book ..or two..😊..👌👌👌👌🌻🙋🏻♀️
My pleasure! Happy book hunting! ❤️
i loooooooove books lol - thanks for taking us along - it was fun - found a book on my bookshelf that will be perfect for this and i'm all ready to play along - thank you!!! xx
Awesome Janet that you will be joining in! ❤️👍🏻😃
That was so fun to go on a field trip with you! Your goodwill is waaaaaay nicer than mine .
Haha thanks Jo Ann! I know, I’m lucky with my Goodwill! 😃
I'm so envious of you right now when you went to browse for books. I could easily get lost track of time in there with just deciding what books to get.
I know, I’m spoiled with that store! 😊 I hope you will join me for this project!
@@49dragonflies Ah, that store is just awesome to visit. Of course, I will keep tuning in for more of this project. I just love watching you create those beautiful junk journal pages.
Epic! I will go look for the book at thrift stores that I can play along ... sounds so much fun! Can’t wait!!😍😍
Awesome that you’ll be joining in! 😃❤️
I love your idea, I think I Will craft along with you. Thank you.
Awesome! 👍🏻😃
Can not wait to get started an this book I have a book and going to follow along on you journey to alter a book ....... so excited 😆
Awesome! Enjoy hunting for your book! 😃
Glad I found the start of the journey🙂looking forward to learning the altered book tutorial❤thank you
Have fun! 😃
Wow...I wish I could go to your Goodwill! It looks like an awesome place!
I’m completely spoiled by it!
Looking forward to this series. Love your goodwill, we call them opportunity shops in australia. I was saying get that book and that one lol. I would not have bought just one 😘Love the colour of the book you chose.
Thanks Kamali! I’m very lucky to have this store close by! The good thing is I can go back anytime, so no need to take up so much space at home 😊
I really like when you take us to your "store", this is such a great adventure. I can't really go outside, like a lot of people, so this made my day ;-) Thanks for the project, it is awsome. Trying my first altered journal now ! Natalie
Thanks Natalie! Happy to take you along! 😃 Have fun with your altered book! ☺️❤️
Why can't you go outside? How are you feeling?
Awesome! My hubby just got some books at an auction, for me. Every one of them is glued. Score!
Perfect! Happy you will be joining me for this project! 😃👍🏻❤️
I can't wait for the next video on this.
Thanks, you should join me! Go, find a book! 😃
Barbara, I love that place!! We don't have them here. Thank you for showing it to us once more! (I wouldn't mind even more visits...:))
Thanks Laura! I was happy to take you along! 😊. I hope you join me with this project! 😃
Looking forward to doing the journal together! Cool goodwill....thank you for the shopping spree😉
So happy you are joining me for this project, Linda! 😃👍🏻❤️
Why am I not surprised? I went 'googling' on 'How to make an altered book, and after a few false starts - look what showed up! And, as always, it's the perfect blend of practical information, and inspiration. I already have a lovely little book - which is almost exactly the same size as the one you found - so I can't wait to watch the rest of the series. Thanks, Barbara. 🧡💚🤎
Really enjoyed see you goodwill shop. Ours in England are so much smaller and more jumbled up. Look forward to watch your progress with this altered book. Xx
Thanks Jennifer! This one is not the norm here either, I’m just really lucky to live close to this one! I hope you join me for this project! 😊
Thank you again!
Thank you. So much I made a nice , I think thumbnail for my 2nd JJ video because of you!!!!
Awesome! 👍🏻😃
Hi Barbara, I AM SOOOOOOOO JEALOUS THAT YOU HAVE A GOOD WILL LIKE THAT.............Our one here. where I live, all of the books are just put onto the shelves in no order what so ever and it can be very frustrating but also fun🤣🤣🤣 especially if you find some great goodies and then you have to have SUPER POWERS to control how much you spend........ 🤣🤣🤣 Barbara thank you for doing this video LUVE IT....... Hugs🤗🤗🤗 and Kisses🥰🥰🥰 from Rhonda Aussie Land Please stay safe....
Thanks Rhonda! I know I’m super spoiled with this shop! 😃 I hope you join me for this project!
yes! heading to my bookshelf to find an old book :)
Awesome! Happy you are joining me! 😃👍🏻❤️
Your Goodwill was really nice. I wanted to go shopping.
Good morning Barbara, that good will store is amazing 🤩. I envy you (in a good way😉). Happy weekend to you🤗
Thanks, I know, I’m very lucky to have this one close by!!! Have a great weekend! ❤️
For the ones in the US who have a 2nd & Charles, they put bins of free books out front of the store. It’s a great way to repurpose books instead of letting them get tossed in the garbage bin. Looking forward to this journey together making altered book journal. Stay safe and God bless.
Thanks Lorri! Sounds like a great tip! 👍🏻😃
Morning Barbara, it was so nice to see your goodwill shop, wish we had something like that here in South Africa. If we have, I haven't found one yet!!! I am so excited to see what you are going to do in your new altered book. Love and Blessings.
Thanks you! Very lucky indeed, spoiled actually!! I hope you join me on this little adventure! 😃
@@49dragonflies I definatley am going to be following you on your new adventure, in fact, I can't wait. When can we start, I hope soon. Blessings from Cape Town. Diana Fox
@@grahamfox931 Great! Yes, very soon! 😃
Love to see where you shop...it looks like my country and I will absolutely going to look after new books to day..I really miss looking after books. But I have SO MANY and I have bought some really old ones and when I comes home I think they are so beautiful that I don’t want to cut them off so I am going to make a old book case in my living room with only old beautiful books. After we moved into this old farmhouse we have the space and I have alway wanted a old bookcase. I absolutely LOVE old books.📚 I have seen some different people make altered books and some says the sew in pages is the best because they don’t get ripped out so easily. When I rip out my pages I just find the middle of the signature and rip out 2-4 pages and does it with all the signature. My pages sits very secured. I have tried the glued pages but they gets very easily ripped in the spine. Maybe I do something wrong. I will work on the side with you and I am look forward to seeing what you make 👏👏👏 Thanks for sharing your lovely ideas 🙏😀 Hugs Tina 🍁🍂
Thanks For your feedback, Tina! Your bookcase with the old books will surely be amazing!!!! Your method with the sewn in pages will work, but you need to be a lot more methodical on which pages you take out. I will add glue to the spine as we glue pockets down so that should help keep them in. Happy you will be joining me in this project! ☺️❤️👍🏻
I make altered hardback journals but I use card stock on 10 to 12 double-sided spreads. The last few I have made are used books with glued and spines. However, I have found that with these spines, by the time I have torn out extra pages and glued everything together, the two facing pages with card stock have split apart at the spine. The spine is still in the same place so I realize this seems/sounds strange LOL. Just today I had to go back in and add washi tape to the inside edges of about half of the pages. Have you ever had this occur? TIA ♥️
@@gailagilliland3268 with the sew pages I don’t have that problem but I have to be much more prepared to what pages I rip out.try to find a video about how altered books can be done. Tina
@@gailagilliland3268 no, but maybe the card stick is too heavy for the spine???? 🤔
49dragonflies Hmmm maybe so ... but it has also happened when I use scrapbook paper, not cardstock
Thanks for not starting so I have time to get a book!
My pleasure! Happy book hunting! 😃🥰
I will definetly join you! What an interesting shop🙂💕
Awesome! ❤️
It’s a fabulous goodwill. Ours in America are usually over crowded and stuffed with clothing. The books are just shoved in and in no order.
I’m know I’m very lucky with this one! ☺️
Looking forward to the next video will be looking for a book to join with you.🥰💕
Awesome Margaret! 😃👍🏻❤️
The books are in alphabetical order?! Wow, that thrift store is awesome! Also love the books in a different language. What a clean thrift store. Impressed. I'll do-it-along with you in this series. Fun!
Love that you will be joining in! Have fun choosing your book! 😃
@@49dragonflies Thank you , I have one ready to go. Again, thank you, so excited to start up journal creating again.
@@roksannastephens4375 awesome!!! 👍🏻😃
I wish I lived in a place that has these beautiful bazaars!!
Omg ... books in alfabetical order ?!?! ... wowww ... itlooks great in there ! I've been in our thrift tore yesterday but I will go back today and search for another book to join you and the others in this journey. 👌🌹💞
Awesome Marina! Happy book hunting! 😃
@@49dragonflies thanx , I've got one 🎉 ... can't wait till your next video !!! 😊
Nice book and what a huge Salvation Army store! It was fun walking through the store with you and sorting through all the books! I did miss watching you craft though. I’ll just have to wait until your next video. Won’t I? Lol. Hugs💕
Thanks Michele! More crafting in 2 days 😃
Oh it was so lovely going on an excursion with you.... Those marbled covers were gorgeous but I was a little worried about you buying the Fanny Hill one as its a bit rude, saucy even but they were such lovely covers though 😉😁❤️
Thanks sweetie, happy you enjoyed the little excursion! 🥰❤️
I love books!.. for reading purpose only
Cant wait for the obter vídeos
Thanks! I hope you join me! 😃❤️
So nice to go with you in the goodwill store. We used to go over here every month and that was the only store I go in because it’s never to busy but now with the increase of Covid over here ( 10.000 today,) we even don’t go there anymore for some weeks. So I am lucky to go with you😃😃 The marbled once’s I loved too and I am curious how you are going to alter this one in your creative way. Have a nice weekend! Big hugs Maia
Thanks Maia! COVID numbers are rising again everywhere it seems! Happy to share my shop as long as I can! ❤️
Ok this is awesome I'm a beginner I'm still watching tutorials on here so I can learn more about how to make one properly u have 8 parts so I'll be watching them all now
Thanks again Esta! I hope this series is helpful! 🥰
I've just started an altered book for the first time and I am finding it a bit overwhelming 😳 my channel is fairly new so I think I would love to follow your series. My book is a bit bigger but I altered it before I even thought of starting a KZhead channel so I would really like to persevere with it now. 🤗💐
I hope my series will help! Just have fun and see what works and what doesn’t! ❤️
Thanks for sharing! Can't wait to see all your episodes! I just recently started my altered book journey! And I'm loving it! My spine ended up a bit lopsided though. I wonder if I did something wrong?
Thanks Naomi! I wonder if your book was not made well and got weak from tearing out pages....
@@49dragonflies I was hoping it was just that and not my fault! 🤣
Hi sweetie, thank you for taking me on your journey! It's so good to go to a good will 💗 I love the one that you took for this project. I'm looking forward to how this will turn out. Well, beautiful of course 😘 But... please say you didn't leave those marble cover books at the good will... 🤔😳 they were beautiful. Hugs, Maureen
Thanks sweetie! Haha yes O did. Leave those there, but so put them somewhere high up so they wouldn’t be noticed so easily! 😃
@@49dragonflies 😁👍😁 you are sneaky and very clever 😘
I just picked up old discarded books from the library I hope I will be able to use them
Can’t wait for Part 2, etc.....
Coming tomorrow! 😃
WOW that's an amazing charity Warehouse! We only get tiny shops here in Australia
I know, I’m very lucky! 😃
Wow, my goodwill definitely doesn't look like that. It's tiny and cramped and I definitely don't want to go there right now... So I'll just watch along 😁
Maybe you can find a book somewhere else??? Family? Friends???
to have the opportunity to go to a thrift store in any European country!!!! here in the states, most of the awesome vintage “old” stuff is new
There are no thrift stores in my country (EU) but sometimes the libraries get rid of some books.
Barbara, can I ask what type of nozzle you use on your glue bottle?
It’s the one that you can get with the Art Glitter Glue. The link is in the description box.
@@49dragonflies Thank you!!!
That was a fun video of your Goodwill. How did you pass on those 2 books with the marble covers? Beautiful books are such a pleasure in life. Maybe thats why making my own gives me such pleasure. 😻
Thanks Laurie! I put them high up so they are not so visible 😂😂😂. I have a small apartment and can’t buy everything I want...🙄
@@49dragonflies I too spend more time cleaning my stuff than I do enjoying it. I stopped purchasing a few months ago!😻
OMG, I want to come and visit you - we have NOTHING like that warehouse where I live!!! We have charity shops/goodwill, but if books are slightly damaged; they get thrown away. I dread to think of all the stuff they toss out!
Come and visit me! (After COVID) 😃
Thank you. Surely you could remove every other signature from a sewn book or remove both pages from a pair. I’m glad you didn’t choose the lost girl book, my rudimentary German had already let me understand the meaning before you said.
Thanks Lucy! Yes, you could certainly do that, you just need to be more methodical than with glued pages.
wow i would love to go to this store. the goodwill in my city is trash. its messy and never has anything good
I’m sorry yours is no good! 🙄
That's a thrift store??? Wow!!!
Right?!?
We have big warehouse charity stores like that too here in Oxford. Though I’m not sure I’ve seen a grand piano.
WOW !! what city is this Good Will?? Nothing like the ones in Louisville. Hope yours is not too far to travel?? TFS.Linda
I live in Vienna, Austria! 🙄
I have been to three Goodwill stores and looked through all the books and cannot find a book with a glued Spine. Any suggestions?
Maybe you can find a cheap new one at a Dollar store or similar.
Have you tried painting a book cover? I have a junky book that I want to paint but I’m a bit hesitant to try it lol.
My daughter paints hers & they come out beautifully. I would Mod Podge over the paint after it dries so it doesn’t chip/scratch off
I have once, but that was long ago! Go for it!!!! Worst case you cover it up if you don’t like it. 😃
@@49dragonflies Oh, that’s a true, I could just change it. I don’t know why I think something is so permanent when it’s not lol, just have to change my way of thinking about crafting, it’s only permanent when I want it to be 😁
@@whitneykosters9102 what does she use to paint it, acrylic paint? I want it to have a vintage feel but have no idea how to go about it, any tips? The Mod Podge is a great idea 👍 thanks!
Stephanie, she uses acrylic paint. You can actually add color to your Mod Podge to make it look older, yellowed or even patina if you want.
