A New Junk Journal

Just popping in really quickly to show off a junk journal I finished recently.  (okay, almost finished)

Notes – A junk journal

Notes02

I have been wanting to make a junk journal For. Ever.  But with 5 kids to homeschool and an online business to run, I just never found the time until now.  BUT!  Finally!  Finally, I sat down and put this thing together. 

Notes06

My stash of chipboard is borderline hoarding so I knew I’d just make the cover myself.  This gave me the advantage of customizing the size of the journal to the papers I had chosen to work with.  The paper has a vintage look and went great with the tons of stuff I coffee-stained years ago.  (seriously, I’ve been planning to do this for a loooong time)

Notes04

You can check out a slideshow of the project on my YouTube channel or flip through all the pics at your own speed on my Facebook page. 

I’ve already started adding in photos and memories from my Instagram photo stash.  The only thing left to do is make some trinkets and charms for the tails.  I’ll post some pics when I get those attached. 

This was super fun and I can’t wait to make more!  I have stacks and stacks of old books, adorable paper pads,  and ephemera to make a bazillion journals too.  Anybody wanna come join me?  I’m always up for a craft day!
