Travel Journal from old jeans

I made this Journal for my daughter who went on a trip. I gave it to her back in November and recorded it prior to presenting it to her and just got the time to upload the video to yt.

I used a pair of her old jeans to make the cover, I sewed the bottom to make a finished edge and also to add the closure.
With other cloth material re-purposed, I cut of the view master (film reel), the star, heart, and pocket. (I used Sizzix dies to be able to cut out the elements.

Please watch the video to see the inside and hope you all make one and re-purpose items as well!
