Making my journal for

[@jamiejunkjournals9316]

I don't exactly know why but I've never liked any accordion style journals/books like at allll....I'd never even consider making one...wouldn't even click on a video tutorial of anyone making them.... UNTIL I SAW YOURS!!!! I have only made one but I'm so in love with the whole entire thing...the process, the end result, the fact that I've used so many bits that I've been holding onto for years, the fact that its reversible. I've added so many flips & tucks & pockets & envelopes....i am literally obsessed it's ended up being one of my very favorite journals and I've made hundreds of them! I haven't exactly worked in it yet but i feel like i did because i keep on taking it out and adding things here and there...i guess I've been making it for over s year now that i think about it lol...anyways thank you for all of your tutorials and sharing your ideas...i look forward new videos and always love the monthly journal challenges of course ❤

[@sandrareford2989]

I like what you said about having something to 'respond' to on your pages as you interpret the prompts. That has helped me not to fuss too much while I create my pages. Not to question my choices too much

[@giselalemus9057]

Very interesting to watch you glue paper together to make pages. I found it very creative and cute.

[@justjaney7]

Love this accordian style journal. I might try to make this style 🥰

[@EmmaDurrans]

Love your journal for JJJ and enjoyed watching you create it. Absolutely adore the front and back page of the journal. Those botanical papers are beautiful! Reminds me of vintage postcards 😊

[@marjo_loves_art]

Wow - such great ideas! Hope to participate in a challenge in the future! Work is just getting in the way!

[@jneigler]

You make it look so easy! Like the idea so the accordion journal.

[@trishapearson6480]

I love your journal! And you made making it look so easy. I just finished my first attempt at one and I fumbled around so much and kept getting stuck. But it's mostly done and ready to go!

[@elle-em]

Same! My first try.

[@ArtisticEndeavors]

My folio is ready!! ✌🏻🎨☕️

[@junkjournalingbarbie5007]

Wow, I’ve never seen a journal made like this, I’ll have to figure this out and make one too, it’s the perfect size! Thanks for all the info, this will be my first one, can’t wait!

[@jensartyinclinations]

Lovely way to create an accordian style book. Thank you for sharing

[@bossieackerman1067]

Love it. Many thanks for sharing. x Blessings x Mariana UK xx

[@bybun]

I might give JJJ a go this year in my Disney junk journal! I'm super behind on it...so I think doing the prompts will help me catch up. Thanks Meg!!

[@courtneycarter3503]

Love that journal!

[@flamingo.and.co.26]

Thank you for showing making the base journal. A coworker asked me to make a gratitude journal, but I have been stuck. Then I saw junk journal july, I want to use the list in an accordion style journal and include gratitude bits.

[@jennyscupboard5649]

❤ thanks for sharing your great ideas. Well done really good job, I'll be giving it a go, take care.

[@debzehr3244]

I love to watch you create the accordion journals. I still haven’t attempted one. Embarrassing. 😂💖

[@annariginalmake]

[@julesiou12]

I keep thinking I should continue with last years JJJ, as it was so big, and have loads to fill, but I really love the accordion journals. My favourite to use after learning them from you. Oh what to do! Just watching you make one makes me want to do another one again. Maybe I could run 2...

[@Jeannes1234]

[@susangazawaypapercrafting3749]

I love this!😊

[@flamingogirl57]

I have never done a monthly challenge ! I am just finishing up a small flip flop journal, that I had no idea what I was going to do in it. Now I know !! Lol !! I've got to try a pieced accordion journal next ! Great Grandma from Kansas USA jumping on board !!

[@meghan9436]

I found out about your channel and challenge through My Life Mits. This looks like so much fun, but I'm afraid that my plate is very full, and I don't think I'll have time to participate this time around. This is something that I want to keep in mind, and maybe I'll dabble in for a day or two if my schedule allows.

[@joankaiser3527]

WOW, your journal is amazing. I guess this is the first accordion style I've seen made. Thank you!

[@celieaguayo9000]

My journal is almost done. I’m so excited for JJJ to come. !! 🎉

[@tonyashatley5040]

Beautiful journal! Already off to a great start! Looking forward to it!!!

[@elle-em]

Where did you get those papers you were sorting through at the beginning? 😍

[@megjournals]

From my friend 🥰

[@enchanteddreams7166]

Love your journal. I am so excited to get started. Have a fabulous day ❤

[@budgetwithcam]

Literally just found this in my for you page and as someone who made their own junk journal folio with signatures, I definitely want to participate and try out the accordion style since I've never done that before. How many pages did you end up doing in total?

[@elainekoziol4445]

You made this making look so easy! You are so talented! Thanks!

[@lucyfanning7496]

Love this. Looking forward to junk journal July.

[@tbrcspirit]

I love the journal you made! I am going to attempt to make this kind ad well. I did my first challenge last July, and unfortunately never got around to the one in January. It took me way out of my comfort zone, but I did enjoy it.

[@ChristinasPaperCreations]

I love the journal you put together 💕

[@PaulaB-u5l]

Made my first journal today

[@B.journalcreations]

This is amazing 🦋

[@happymailmagic]

IDK HOW I've NEVER SEEN An Accordion Style JUNK Journal like you just created!!! Now I REALLY want to go try & make one!!! LOL! ~🙏💙🙏Much Gratitude From the Carolinas🙏💙🙏~

[@megjournals]

It's so much fun!!

[@forgttnhrt]

I made my first junk journal to try the challenge, but feel maybe I already decorated my pages too much! Was I meant to wait to decorate until the challenge?

[@covertopossum6158]

I have a question about #10, what is "stripped back"? I'm just not sure hot to interpret that. How do I strip a journal, does that mean to make it kind of barren? Or am I putting strips of paper/stuff everywhere?

[@megjournals]

Think minimalist! Definition is "reduced to its simplest form, with only the most basic and essential" - so limited supplies, minimal layouts etc!

[@chaspelu]

How am I to download the propmts? I click on them but no way. Please tell me

[@megjournals]

You’ll need to right click and save image (option may differ on your pc) - any issues drop me a DM on IG with your email address and I’ll email it to you :)
