I completely agree! As soon as people start taking precise measurements and scoring several lines in the paper, I lose interest. I want to play, make pretty things and not be stressed about ruining a piece of paper. There are too many rules in life as it is! Guess I’m a wild child at heart! 😂❤😊❤

Meg - this book needs nothing! Without even embellishing, you have - once again - made a lovely piece of ART! Literally salvaging bits from the BIN! I aspire to create one similar …. The style of my journal again this year is accordion, however, it could not begin to compare otherwise to this little beauty you plan to use! Excited to begin the trek!!!

You have been a major inspiration to me Meg, I’m so glad I found your channel 😊 I’ve realised that I had quite a few limiting self beliefs when it came to how I thought I should journal and create art. Watching how you create and hearing your thoughts has opened my mind to new possibilities. Your channel has such a cosy and welcoming vibe too, it’s such a nice place to retreat to! 🥰

I don't mind the "messy" or "organic look at all, I'm not big into measuring either. However, I absolutely cannot, will not do "sideways" pages...Perhaps it's the writer and reader in me overriding the artist in me, but things that have a pattern or text HAVE to be upside-right, readable, left to right...odd our quirks, lol. I absolutely love these no-sew books, it's one of my "couch crafts" that I do when I want to do something but have zero creative energy. Then when something like Junk Journal July comes up, I'm ready to play along 🤓

Honestly, it depends whether you wanna do full page spreads, half pages, combined pages, tip ins etc. That’s why no sew is so great because if you are running out it’s easy to add in some more pages without putting any pressure on a spine :)
