Summer Craft: Junk Journaling
I got this off Tiktok and I really fell in love!
Junk journaling feels like a lower pressure scrapbook//journal. Where it doesn’t have to be perfect or look the best. Personally I tend to write a ton and not have super great drawing abilities so the collaging has been a nice in between.
It also gives you a great way to keep sentimental things without cluttering your house. My boyfriend has a ton of Pokemon cards he doesn’t use so I try to add those when I want to! Its also helped me use the cute tags or stickers I didn’t want to let go of and helped with my perfectionism issues as well.
Super easy to get started you just need:
- glue
-scraps
-a notebook!
- any other supplies that bring joy!
Try it out and let me know what you think!
