A Catch-Up Post!

 Hi everyone!

It has been a REALLY long time since I wrote here! Like 8 years! 

So I am doing well as is my family. Hubs has been working from home since the beginning of the pandemic. The kid (who is almost 25! can you imagine?) works in a pub and did bring home Covid right around this past Christmas, but luckily it was the Omicron variant and we didn't get too sick. We just had flu-like symptoms for about a week although my taste and smell was blunted for a few weeks after that.

So while I still have some of my old hobbies, my latest passion over the past several years has been making Junk Journals, only I do not make true "junk" journals, I make more vintage-style journals. And that is what I hope to turn this blog into; a place to show everything having to do with my vintage-style handmade journals.

I have a YouTube channel where I post works in progress, completed journals, Thrift-store finds that relate to journal making and lots of other stuff! You can find it here: https://www.youtube.com/c/LilacMemoriesHandcraftedVintageJournals/videos

I will be launching a new journal Shop within the next month (fingers crossed!). You can find it here: https://vintagelilacmemories.company.site/

I also have an Instagram page here: https://www.instagram.com/vintagelilacmemories/

And a Facebook page here: https://www.facebook.com/VintageLilacMemories

I would really appreciate it if any of my old followers decide to follow one (or more) of my social media pages!

Here is a cute pic of Bentley & Daisy! (we lost Kodi & Peanut, both to cancer several years ago :( )


And here are some pics of the journals I have made:

Grungy Gretchen Flip-Thru

This is a flip-through of a recently completed journal of mine. I call it GG (grungy Gretchen), it is so far from my usual style but I enjoy...
