About me:
Hello, I’m Francesca from Junk Journal Joy,
a junk journal storyteller, and a creator.
I’m Italian and I love creating handmade journals with vintage things
mixed with recycled or new modern objects.
My background is in Psychology, so I like practicing creativity as a mindful activity.
For me, the creative process doesn’t always have to be meaningful.
When you create just to create,
and you go with the flow,
it becomes a way to meditate
and to find your inner peace.
Sometimes the meaning of it
will emerge only with time.

[@JunkJournalJoy]

thanks☺️

[@catherinewinsor7991]

I love how there are so many little decorative elements contained in such a small compact space. Might be pretty cool to find a way to either print some of the kit on a piece of elastic or find a pretty matching patterned piece of elastic to use on the back where the tag is too small to allow room to stuff with goodies and still get the band off easily.

[@JunkJournalJoy]

thanks ☺️

[@donadeam2313]

The envelopes worked perfectly a wonderful militia flap embellishment and the sleeve is the perfect closure.

[@JunkJournalJoy]
