I am not actually sure if Junk Journal is the right name for this because I don’t actually use “junk” but do use random stickers, papers etc to create these pages.
It is so therapeutic because there is no real purpose or planning – you just create a page using the pretty things you have. Sometimes I stick to a colour theme, sometimes I just start with one thing and build from there.
Often I don’t even know what the plan is, I just pick a sticker or a piece of paper and go where the mood takes me. Over the years I have gathered so many bits and pieces – stickers, scrap paper, embellishments, washi tape etc that I have a seemingly endless supply of things to use to create with.
Once I get started I can spend hours creating new pages. I have almost filled the journal I am using. It is a great mindfulness activity for me because I completely zone out and just create.
They are really pretty!
These are beautiful pages! Creativity needs no plan. 😄
