Making a Junk Journal | Tutorial

[@nonasimons9311]

Very easy to follow instructions and good explanations. I love how you showed us the variety of papers that make the pages in the journal. I like how small amd big pages got bound together. Big thumbs up! 👍

[@karenwilson6119]

Thank you so much for your tutorial, Helen. I can't wait to see how you fill the pages and the pockets. Inspirational, as always.

[@joiedefi]

What a gorgeous collection of papers, and as always so neat and tidy 😁👍🏻 Sounds like you've caught the pocket making addiction. I can totally relate to that!!! Thanks for the mention, and what a lovely pocket. Looking forward to seeing all of your art pages emerge as you fill this up. Hugs!! Joie ❣️🌿

[@HelenColebrook]

I’m new to your channel and junk journals. I saw a finished book and thought 😳. How your video showed up for me to watch I really don’t know, but, I truly enjoyed it. I learned a lot from watching yours that I didn’t pickup on from watching another one a few weeks ago. Thank y’all for being so informative.

[@holisticleedriven8532]

ack! where did you get the cover? perfect for a journal I'm planning! TFS your stitching method. I've seen 3-hole dozens of times by now, but this is the first time I've seen 5 holes.

[@mariaaireenondo6335]

This was wonderful and so simple. I have made a few junk journals following other youtube videos but I liked the simplicity of yours. Thanks so much for sharing your experience & talents. 💕

[@HelenColebrook]

Thank you so much Jane ☺️ I love keeping things simple and then adding all the little details as I go 💕

[@NightSteed666]

I’m making one right now! It will be a present for my partner for all his running and triathlon competitions documenting 🙂 It is super fun to watch your process doing mine at the same time 😉 Oh, and it’s also a second junk journal I have ever made!

[@HelenColebrook]

Oh, that’s perfect timing! Such a lovely thoughtful gift for your partner too 🤗💕

[@laurie3881]

This is excellent. I love art journals but always felt I had to buy one. I can't wait to see how you use the pages. I have some little blank tags, about 3 1/4 x 1.5. I am hoping you will show different ways to use them.

[@HelenColebrook]

Thank you so much Laurie ☺️ I started having a little play in it last night and I will definitely share some videos of how I use it 💕

I’ve made 4 I think. The first one was terrible. But I got better. Still not perfect but better.

[@HelenColebrook]

That’s great going. I’m sure they hold wonderful treasures 🤗💕

[@Jayne_Maya]

I don’t understand how you use a junk journal if most of the pages are already covered in pictures and text that you can’t write over¿¿ 🤔

[@HelenColebrook]

I have a video sharing a flip through of my last completed junk journal if that would help? There’s lots of lovely ways to create writing spots 🤗💕

[@Jayne_Maya]

Yes, that would be great.. can you post the link? 💗
