Junk journaling is a creative outlet that allows you to repurpose materials while expressing your unique style. As a beginner, understanding the basics is crucial. Start by gathering supplies like old papers, fabrics, and embellishments. Utilize online resources, including tutorials on platforms such as Facebook and YouTube, to enhance your skills.
