How to Start Your First Junk Journal in 2025 and Make it AMAZING! Tips, Supplies and Page Ideas

[@MarieP3]

Hi, I think I was meant to find you. I'm very new to journaling and I really struggle to know what to put into them. Your ideas and techniques are really great and inspirational. Thank you for sharing

Oh, Christine! Thank you very much for all the innovative, whimsical, artistic ideas! Beautiful treasures you have created. I am new at junk journaling, and always get confused on how to add multiple signatures to one journal! How to sew each one in separately, etc. Thank so much for your time, and for sharing your creativity!

This is awesome! I am a new junk journalist after 10 years of scrapbooking many years ago. I describe junk journaling as scrapbooking on steroids!😂 Thank you for this overview. I’ve been struggling with the concept of binding a journal, messing up the pages, etc. I’m starting small with tags and index cards and small single signature journals. I like the idea of using an old planner. I have a nice leather one that is unused. And I have the 6 punch hole punch to make pages! That way of I screw up a page I can just remove it and add another one! Thanks so much for the inspiration 😊

Hello Christine thank you so much for the great tips‼️ When im asked to make a jj it takes me forever how to start, always thinking about the page colors I'll be using, ephemera designs, tags, etc, but watching your tutorial & awesome tips im sure I'll apply them for my next jj. I'm trying to make the time to begin with mini jj's and try to use up most of the tons of paper scraps I've piled up😮i do have all well organized in plastic containers but have so much and throwing them away i always think, "what if i need this or that color strip later on? " 😅 i can not work with a cluttered desk I too only have what I'll be using at that same moment😅😅. I loved it when you mentioned, "THE CREATOR" 🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️ Always admire your gorgeous, beautiful art. God bless your friend from Guatemala 🇬🇹

Thank you mam

[@cherismith5707]

When you are taking an existing book and subtracting pages from it to make a journal, do you have to be careful to not take out the one side and leave the other side where it has nothing attached and can fall out? I hope my question makes sense. I wondered if there is a system for how to know which pages you can safely remove so it will stay intact.

Totally need that glue gun that holds the bottle of glue!! :)

[@theresaconway-hayes]

Interesting style. I do a lot of videos too but I don’t lay the steps out as concisely. I’m getting ready to do something that is more “step” oriented in March so this was interesting to see. Blessings! @theresaconway-hayes
