What’s Behind This Door? 😍 Hinge Journal Cover Reveal + Closure (Pt 2)

What’s Behind This Door? 😍 Hinge Journal Cover Reveal + Closure (Pt 2)
5/5/26

Hey friends! 💛
Today we’re diving into Part 2 of our hinge journal… and this is where everything comes together!
In Part 1, we built the base—
but in this video, we’re bringing it to life with all the beautiful finishing details.
✨ I’ll show you how I embellished the cover
✨ Added layered textures with lace, trims, and focal elements
✨ And created a simple two-hole ribbon closure that’s both functional and beautiful and I learned it from @ravenvintageca .

And can we just talk about that little door… 😍
It adds such a magical, storytelling element—I love pieces that make you wonder what’s inside.
This part is one of my favorites because it’s where your journal really becomes yours.

🌿 What You’ll Learn:

• How to build a layered, eye-catching cover
• Ways to combine textures (lace, florals, trims)
• An easy and elegant closure technique
• Tips for creating a cohesive, finished look
