What are Junk Journals?
Junk journals are a form of creative journaling that involves making use of various materials. Scraps of paper, fabric, stickers, and other embellishments to create an eclectic and visually interesting junk journal.
These journals are often filled with collages, drawings, photographs, and various memorabilia. They can be used for things like art journaling, documenting memories, creative writing, or simply as a fun and relaxing way of expressing oneself.
Junk journals are typically created by hand (hand made). They can be customized in a variety of ways to suit the individual user’s preferences and creative style.
The possibilities for junk journal themes are endless. Have fun and pick a theme that speaks to you and your interests and start your project today!
