Summer’s End—A New Junk Journal & Ephemera Kit

August 10, 2022August 10, 2022 ~ ginamakesit ~ Leave a comment

August is here and a few weekends ago, I spent some much needed downtime putting the finishing touches on my summer journal (watch my process here). I know, I know, summer isn't over just yet. But if you happened to follow along with me last year, you know my absolute favorite part of summer is … Continue reading Summer’s End—A New Junk Journal & Ephemera Kit

Ice Ornament Recipe

January 16, 2022January 16, 2022 ~ ginamakesit ~ 2 Comments

Last year, I discovered a beautiful craft perfect for cold weathered days -- ice ornaments. After I made my first batch, my mom and I spent many an hour gushing over them. This is no exaggeration. Combining the best of what winter has to offer, these ornaments are simply breathtaking. If you have the opportunity … Continue reading Ice Ornament Recipe

Happy New Year!

January 2, 2022January 4, 2022 ~ ginamakesit ~ Leave a comment

In my latest YouTube video, I took some time to look over my journals from the last year. 2021 without a doubt, has been my most productive journaling year to date. I don't think I have ever utilized a journal every month or every two months consecutively in a year. It really feels like quite … Continue reading Happy New Year!

Celebrating the Beauty of December

December 1, 2021 ~ ginamakesit ~ 2 Comments

Two years ago, I'd laugh if you told me December would become a favorite month of mine. December? The month that signaled the start of what seemed like an endless string of long, dark, and chilly days? No way! The first of December usually marked the point I would begin counting out on my fingers … Continue reading Celebrating the Beauty of December

Layered Flowers — Free Templates

November 7, 2021November 6, 2021 ~ ginamakesit ~ 1 Comment

I've been making the large version of these layered flowers for a few years now as hair clips. They look so cute clipped right above a bun or ponytail. But recently, I thought they would also make great journal embellishments, so I decided to make a template with three different sizes -- free for you … Continue reading Layered Flowers — Free Templates

Free Vintage-Inspired Watercolor Pumpkins

October 20, 2021October 19, 2021 ~ ginamakesit ~ Leave a comment

I love to paint and draw, but if truth be told, I'm not really that good at it. I think a large part of the problem is that I simply don't practice enough. I have recently tried to incorporate more practice into my weekly goals, but life gets so hectic! Last year right around this … Continue reading Free Vintage-Inspired Watercolor Pumpkins

New Fall Journal + Circle of Leaves — Free Vintage Friday

October 8, 2021 ~ ginamakesit ~ Leave a comment

The calendar says it's October 8 and while it feels more like August 8 outside, the leaves have indeed begun to turn and float softly to the ground. My Summer Twilight journal was quickly coming to an end, so I knew it was time to start working on a new fall journal. I used an … Continue reading New Fall Journal + Circle of Leaves — Free Vintage Friday

1909 Astronomical Chart — Free Vintage Fridays

September 24, 2021October 1, 2021 ~ ginamakesit ~ Leave a comment

For those of us in the Northern Hemisphere, the autumnal equinox has come and gone. Technically, it's the day at the end of summer when on earth we see an equal amount of sunlight and moonlight (although Neil deGrasse Tyson differs on this) as the sun shines directly on the equator. I've never really noticed … Continue reading 1909 Astronomical Chart — Free Vintage Fridays

Late Summer Lady — Free Vintage Friday

September 10, 2021September 9, 2021 ~ ginamakesit ~ Leave a comment

I was born with a terrible inherent creative flaw. I have an extremely hard time working on projects that do not mimic my reality. If it's November, I find it near impossible to work on projects with vibrant spring flowers. If it's the dead of summer, snowflakes and sleds kill my creative mojo. I move … Continue reading Late Summer Lady — Free Vintage Friday

Bright Blue Beauty — Free Vintage Friday

July 16, 2021July 5, 2021 ~ ginamakesit ~ Leave a comment

I transplanted a few of my cone flowers late fall last year because they were outgrowing their space. The transplants are doing great in their new spaces, but the existing ones are struggling a bit. I'm not sure why, but I do know some accidentally received a vinegar bath early in spring, mistaken by my … Continue reading Bright Blue Beauty — Free Vintage Friday
