When the term DIY (do it yourself) comes into question, many of us have different associations with it. Some people are avid fans of it and even like to repurpose old items with creative twists, while for some people... the term quite literally means a disaster in every way possible.

This week I have a beautiful paper craft idea for you... how to make a Junk Journal. It's beauty is quite simply rooted in its simplicity, do join me...
This journal was created using the Letters & Postcards printable kit from My Porch Prints Visit My Porch Prints on Etsy for beautiful printables for your Junk Journal What To Do With A Junk Journal Maybe you've heard of junk journals? (Click here for a beginner's tutorial.) They are these cool, beautiful handmade books created from bits of discarded "junk"... things like receipts, old book pages & papers, doilies and other ephemera. Some are made of fabric, some of paper, old grocery bags, file folders, cereal boxes. If you spend any time on Pinterest, YouTube or Instagram, you have to agree these junk journal things are beautiful! But what do you DO with them? I once asked the same question. And I think anyone with an interest in creating these pretty journals is probably wondering the same thing. Well, here are a few ideas for what you might do with a junk journal: Diary/Journal The most obvious use, at least to me, is to make a good old fashioned journal. Record your thoughts and feelings in the pretty tea-dyed pages. Created using the Mysterious Woman Journal Kit from My Porch Prints Art Journal/Sketch Book If you make junk journals, you probably already have an interest in art on some level. Why use blank white pages when you can sketch and draw out your ideas in a book that is already creative and inspiring? Lavender Layered Journal Cover Memory Book/Photo Album Gather pictures of that new baby, or postcards and letters from your grandparents, or just memories of your friendship through the years... concert tickets, receipts, fun memories scribbled on tags or bits of coffee-dyed paper. What a pretty collection of memories & photos! Created using the Letters & Postcards Journal Kit Travel Journal Go on an adventure, and take a junk journal with you! Fill those pockets with ticket stubs, luggage tags, that weird candy you ate in Nepal? Save the wrapper! You'll never forget that memory. That postcard from Florida? That train ticket to Paris? Each bit of "junk" from your journeys can be saved as a memory. And don't forget a few Polaroid photos, too! Created using the World Traveler Scrap Pack Art/Collectible You hang pictures on your wall, you decorate your shelves with boxes & knick-knacks... why can't a journal be a piece of art in your home? Fill up a bookshelf with journals of every theme! Place one on your coffee table as an interesting conversation piece. Fill it with the things you love, and your guests can get to know you as they flip through its pages. Created using Fairy Tale Journal Kit & Fairy Tale Mini Books Wedding Guest Book Perfect for a vintage, woodland or other themed wedding. The junk journal guest book can be themed to match! And guests can write not only their names, but also well-wishes and memories for the happy couple. Neutral Wedding Guest Book Kit Prayer Journal Record your prayers and favorite Bible passages. Draw a picture to go with what you've read. Your time with God can take on a new creativity, reflecting the talents he's blessed you with! Scripture Scraps Printable Botanical Journal/ Field Guide You love nature. Your garden. Your walks. Pluck a few flowers or leaves and preserve them in your journal! Find out their names or properties. Or draw pictures of what you see... be it bird, bug or beast. Botanical Wax Paper Bag Journal Letters & Postcards Journal Flip-Thru Video Day Planner Keep your chaotic life in check. Make those grocery lists, track sleep or weight loss... like a bullet journal, but with a shabby, coffee-dyed creative twist. Planner Junk Journal Kit Creative Planner You love to make projects... sewing, cooking, mixed media, refinishing furniture, gardening, etc. Whatever your hobby, you need to be organized and plan out your future projects, and a junk journal can be just the place to do that! When inspiration strikes, record your ideas and maybe sketch a little drawing to go with it. Or cut out pictures from magazines as inspiration. Crafters Planner Kit Recipe Journal Whether it's your great-grandma's homemade noodles or that cake pop you loved from Pinterest... pictures and ingredients combine to create a recipe journal! Make it kitchen themed with images of vintage 50s appliances. Or food themed with scrumptious cakes, tea & desserts! Record memories of those special times in the kitchen, with grandma or grandpa, mom or dad or your babies & grandbabies. Tea & Dessert Folio Kit Flow-ish/Gift Journal You're not the only person who loves to create! So, share your journal in a swap. And include pretty bits of art supplies, papers and tags within the pages and pockets for your friend to use in HER journal! Letters & Postcards Journal Kit Botanical Notes Junk Journal Kit FREEBIE!

Nigezza Creates aka Gez, Independent Stampin' Up® Demonstrator Thank you for visiting my blog, I really do appreciate. I am so excited to be sharing with you my first Junk Journal. I have wanted to make one for such a long time but never gave myself the time to do it. Well this year I decided that I would spend at least one day a week to craft for me. I decided that I would finally put photos in my mini albums and I would record my memories and actually put the hours and hours of watching YouTube videos into practice and make a Junk Journal! So this is a series that takes you through the process from start to finish ...not that it is finished yet or course! It is a work in progress and I hope you will join me. I have made mistakes and I have learned from them and I have enjoyed every minute. Measurements and Materials I normally give you the measurements of my projects, but for this project this will not always be possible as it is often not precise as it involves ripping paper! The signatures in this Junk Journal are me using A4 sheets folded in half to make an A5 sized journal. I have used ordinary copier paper, music printed paper, graph paper, pattered paper, old maps, book pages, doilies and envelopes that I dyed with coffee, tea and avocado. I have used Stampin' Up! inks and stamps and lots of long neglected stash that have been hoarded over the decades! Now watch the first video tutorial in this Junk Journal series :-) Video Tutorial Click below to see the video tutorial :-) Time for the closeups! Video's & Channels I have watched I have watched soooo many youtube videos about Junk Journalling but these are the ones I keep going back to. They have really inspired me to finally get started.
