What is a Junk Journal?
A junk journal is a handmade journal created from recycled and found materials, used to preserve memories, stories, and bits of everyday life through collages, journaling, and art.
Unlike traditional journals or scrapbooks, junk journals have a relaxed and experimental approach, encouraging the use of “junk” like paper scraps, old book pages, packaging, and photographs to create a personal, often vintage or rustic-looking, mixed-media artifact.
Some Varieties of Journals I Make
Themed Journals
The topic and color palette are already set. Pieces of epehemera will be included that fit that theme, but you can move it and use it as you wish.

Add Your Own Ephemera
These are more traditional ‘junk journals’. There is no theme, but I will have added original ephemera that I have purchased or found. The journal is ready for you to take any direction.

Concept Journals
One of a kind journals created from images or ideas that intrigue me. The format will be different, an upcycled book, images from a calender, incldes larger pieces of epehemra or related items.
