Kathleen Mower | Autumn Fairy Journal - Finished (SOLD) @BeAgainBooks | Uploaded October 2022 | Updated October 2024, 7 hours ago.
I am excited about this handmade vintage style Autumn junk journal with a fairy theme. I created a mixed-media cover on a deep red recycled book cover and used texture paste with multiple colors for the leaf motif. I also trimmed the cover with an antique print of an autumn pasture and stream, a fabric vine trim and a metal framed picture of a lovely fairy. A beautiful fiber tassel and vintage lace bow decorates the spine.

The size is 8.5-inches by 5.5-inches with a 1-inch spine. There are two hand sewn signatures with 118 artistically decorated pages. All the rich autumn colors and themes are depicted in the beautiful pages, elements and embellishments in the journal. 28 pockets and tuck spots are stuffed with 26 pieces of original vintage or handmade ephemera.

This journal is listed on Etsy at this link: etsy.me/3RrFHJH

Here are the links for the two videos showing how I created the ephemera from my junk mail -
