Junk Journal your Christmas No.1~ Construct and Gather

Posted on by Rebecca

Hello! it’s final here!!! Welcome to the Junk Journal Your Christmas Series. This is the first of several videos where I am showing you how I plan to Junk Journal my Christmas by using a Golden Book. This doesn’t mean you need to use a Golden Book, you can use a traveler’s notebook, scrapbook or any form of documentation. I plan to show you how I will be dolling up my journal while I craft my Christmas Story. In this first video I am constructing a Junk Journal using a Golden Book and discussing what items to gather and where you can purchase these items. See below for some of the places mentioned:

September “Autumn is Calling” CWR Kit

Posted on by Rebecca

Can’t you hear it? Autumn is calling!! The days will be getting shorter, the leaves will start to change colors, a cool crisp breeze will be in the air. I can’t wait to wear my favorite outfit of tights and my burgundy corduroy dress while drinking a pumpkin spice latte. Yes this is me, I love all things seasonal. I won’t speak about the weather hear in Texas, it’s still in the 90’s, instead I’m going to continue to dream and listen because Autumn is calling!  Who is ready to adorn their planner, journal or memory book with all things red, yellow and orange!? This kit is created around a mixed media whimsical autumnal girl by Rebecca Hoot. Each item is carefully selected and assembled to match a perfect little kit just for you or to send to a dear friend to enjoy! Kits are now available in the shop!

Happy Autumn!

Summer Journaling Week 5~ Prepping Journal Pages

Posted on by Rebecca

Hello and welcome to week 5 in my Summer Journaling series! In this video I show you how I prep journal pages for future journaling.  How many of us who paint our journal pages have to wait for the paint to dry? If your like me I am so easily distracted I find it better to add watercolor to pages before I am ready to journal so when I am ready, I have painted pages already. Does that makes sense? In this video I show you what I do. I hope you are inspired to be creative today!!

Thanks for watching,

Posted on by Rebecca

Welcome back to my summer journaling series! This week I’m talking about creating a vision by making a bucket list of activities and adding the items to a Bucket O Fun to manifest the things you want to do on your bucket list. This summer my family will be having a staycation which means we will be staying local and finding activities to fill our summer days. I hope you are inspired to make a list and create a bit of fun this summer if your going on a vacation or just staying around the house.

Journal Supplies on the Go

Posted on by Rebecca

Hello! It’s been a while since I posted a video mainly due to being sick almost the whole month of January and February is just flying by! I recently spent the weekend at my parents hours to celebrate their 50th Anniversary and posted a photo of my journal supplies on instagram. There was a request to create a video to show the supplies I travel with, believe me when I tell you I use to bring the kitchen sink! I have learned to minimize especially for trips that I may or may not get a chance to be creative. If I was to go on a crafting weekend, I probably would still carry the kitchen sink lol!
