daiso haul

Hey everyone! So thrilled to share a deeper dive into my recent Daiso haul, especially focusing on some absolute must-haves for anyone, like me, diving headfirst into the wonderful world of junk journaling! When I first started looking for supplies, one thing kept popping up in my searches: 'Daiso glue sticks' and 'Daiso glue.' I was curious if they lived up to the hype, and let me tell you, they totally do! I managed to snag a pack of two cute glue sticks in light purple and light blue/white colors during my trip – they just scream 'adorable' from the packaging! For junk journaling, having a reliable adhesive is key, and these little gems from Daiso are surprisingly effective. They dry clear, don't wrinkle my delicate vintage papers or photos, and the stickiness lasts. Plus, the pretty pastel colors just make me happy every time I reach for one. It's the small details that count, right? If you've been wondering about the best 'Daiso glue' for your craft projects, these glue sticks are definitely worth checking out. They’re super affordable too, which is a huge bonus when you’re stocking up on supplies. Beyond just sticking things down, I've found these Daiso glue sticks incredibly versatile. I use them for attaching everything from pressed flowers to fabric scraps, and even for creating layered collages. A pro tip: for thicker embellishments, apply a thin, even layer of the glue stick to both surfaces if possible, or press firmly for a few seconds after application. It really helps things stay put without making a mess. Of course, a junk journaling haul isn't complete without stickers! My Daiso trip yielded some amazing finds. I picked up several packs of 'good mood sticker' sets, some with vibrant colors and others in more subdued purple/pink tones. The 'FLAKE STICKERS' in a brown color palette are perfect for that rustic, vintage feel, and I also found some delicate 'MARU SEAL' circular floral stickers that add such a pretty, feminine touch. These combined with the washi tape – I got a pack of multiple patterned rolls and a white one with silver dots – are so fun to mix and match. The 'Daiso glue sticks' make it easy to adhere these without any fuss, ensuring my journal pages look neat and professional, even though I'm just starting out. And for those practical elements, don't forget the tools! I grabbed a silver 15cm aluminum ruler, which is super handy for straight edges or measuring out small pieces. The two dusty-colored journal clamps, one pink and one brown, are also brilliant for holding pages open while the glue dries or for keeping sections together. Even the 'SCHEDULE STICKER' sheets, one for work and one for healthcare icons, find their way into my journal for quick visual reminders or to mark important dates. Daiso truly is a treasure trove for craft enthusiasts, especially for junk journaling. You can find so many unique and affordable items that spark creativity. My advice? Go with an open mind, but definitely keep an eye out for those fantastic 'Daiso glue sticks' and other stationery gems. They make all the difference in making your creative projects enjoyable and successful. Happy journaling!
