Journal Make With Fabric Hinged Pages Pearlys Design Shop 2025-12-07 | In this video, you will see how I made journal pages by connecting them with fabric hinges. I have sewn the fabric onto the paper with my machine, but it could also be hand sewn, and for a no-sew version, this method could be done with glue.

Making Fabric Bowls Pearlys Design Shop 2025-11-19 | I made some fabric (and tea bag) bowls and actually remembered to record it 😍Join me as I get the glue out - no sewing required - and make some sweet little vessels.

I used Elmer's School Glue, but any PVA glue that dries clear will work.Most importantly, I was inspired by, and learned how to make them by watching videos by the 2 talented ladies below:Kristin Peterson @Alteredstatesstudio alteredstatesstudio.com/blog/2022/11/25/fabric-bowlsLindsey Dickson Creative at itsalovelyday on Instagram instagram.com/reel/DPHM5a5CGNZ/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==You can find me atInstagram instagram.com/pearlysdesignshopEtsy pearlysdesignshop.etsy.comThanks for watching!Shirley
