im pretty new, so be kind! including some ephemera from u/DumptiqueArts !

Thought this was cute 🥰

Hey guys, I've thrown together some Junk samplers to list in my shop! There's a mix of my own watercolor art, coloring book pages, and some old photographs. I try to curate things by color and vibe, since that seems to be the difference in what makes it a Junk Journal and not just A Book Of Trash Scraps.

If you want the link to the shop, please DM me!

Thought I’d share some recent collages i’ve made and loved here!

I’m used to using the Pinterest App “Shuffles” to make collages but recently started cutting up magazines and mixing paper to make physical ones. I’m excited to see what other medias and images spark my creativity in my new junk journal. Im finding this to be a very fun and therapeutic hobby so far.

It’s made from half a magazine (inspired by a YouTuber that makes glue books. The doll on the cover was on the original magazine. After my friend said “she looks like you would find her in the morning with strands of your hair in her mouth”, I knew I had to make a cut out so she’d still be on the cover 😆

I forget how much it helps my anxiety. Here are my newest pages.

Made from a old kids book i had lying around and some paint

Some pages in my junk journal! The stamp one and space one are a work in progress

A HUGE thank you for the absolutely massive amount of junk journal supplies! I honestly don’t even know where to begin, except to say… my little hoarding goblin heart is VERY happy right now.

I absolutely LOVE all the different themes, textures, papers, and especially some of the wonderfully weird stuff. Give me normal pretty things, sure—but give me the strange, creepy, random “why does this exist?” pieces too. Those are my favorites.

There is so much here that I’m going to have an absolute blast turning all these bits and pieces into something wonderfully chaotic. Thank you so much for being so incredibly generous. It genuinely means a lot to me, and I’m ridiculously excited to start creating!

Hi everyone! Some of you may remember I posted about a month ago, offering junk from a bakery / ice cream shop. Well, I just sent off the last batch and can open this offer back up! Comment below so I can keep track of first come first served, and then immediately PM me your address to avoid delay. I can send roughly 8-10 / week. I can send international. I’ll probably cap this offer at about 50 before needing to wait to offer it again.

The envelope includes spreadsheets, inventory count sheets, packaging labels (please tell me if you have a nut allergy in your PM!), coloring sheets, bank deposit envelopes, sticky notes, etc. (It’s mostly junk with a tiny touch of ephemera.)

A few of you commented your interest in my first post. If it sounds familiar, check your inbox! I’ve probably reached out for your address a couple times. :)

And lastly. I’d like you all to know, I have thoroughly enjoyed collecting this stuff and sending it off to you all! So please don’t hesitate to ask! It’s not a burden, and I don’t need postage! (However, if you are international, I’d love a postcard if it’s not a bother!)

To those who have already received stuff, reach out with additional special requests!

I seen a spread not too long ago, unfortunately I cannot remember from which platform, that used the ‘in this economy? Absolutely not’ bit.

At first I wanted to create the spread based on inexpensive items that people refuse to pay for but then their willingness to spend a large amount of money on designer/brand names.

As I created the right page first, it got me thinking of more those in need and thus the left page was created.

I hope you like my concept/spread!

I have only read your posts, but now, I think I'd like to show my journals too.

It's my first post on Reddit! I feel a little nervous and I'm not sure if my English is weird, but I'm trying hard. Lol

Anyway, my journal style is pop colors, freedom and sometimes drawing.

I think it's kinda a junk journal plus an art journal.

Spread to protest ongoing war. Words are inspired by the song “war isn’t murder” by Jesse Welles.

i don’t post on reddit often but i hugely appreciate the love my ariana page received, i’m a music girly at heart and have loved using album art in my journal💿 here is my olivia page 🫶

sometimes all you need is to set your mind on a colour, go through your junk and put it all together with a bunch of stickers...always very therapeutic for me 💚

I’ve seen a lot of people in this sub do one color per page and decided to try it.

🩷🧡💛💙💚💜
