[@sandrapitts5280]

I’ve only watched 1:45 minutes and I already have to say a huge thank you! I am SO drawn to junk journals, but I love to do my “dear diary” stuff in my beloved Leuchtturm, so I’ve been in a turmoil about this for a long time. However, when you said that you used this first junk journal to collect things - poems, stickers, ephemera that spoke to you - I said yes! out loud. That is EXACTLY the answer for me - I don’t have to split my journaling between two books; I write in one and collect in the other! Thank you! Now on to watching the rest of your video! 😊

[@amyvetter1830]

I like seeing the progression of your personal style. From glue book collection of things you like, to travel journal ephemera, to quotes and more writing, and now adding your art work, and a combination of all the styles you have tried. Thank you for sharing.

[@megjournals]

Can't wait to do more of the travel journaling when the world opens up again!

[@barbaraleventhal8571]

I love your journals and journaling style. The accordion journal is addictive to make and use. I bought myself a inkdori cover and am anxiously waiting for its arrival. Thank you so much for sharing your art.

[@megjournals]

Ooooh I hope you enjoy when it arrives 🥰

[@nessamargaret]

You are SO CREATIVE. You can see potential in literally EVERYTHING!

[@lydialinville2524]

Just love each and every one of your journals.

[@megjournals]

Ah thank you!

[@annwoleben5439]

Your journals are wonderful, each in its own way. I made an accordion journal using your January prompts - my first attempt. Your videos are inspiring and encouraging. Thank you!

[@meghna_gupta]

I’ve been stalking your channel and watching your videos back to back. They always give me ideas about what to put in my own journal. Thank you for sharing your creative process. It really helps us not-so-creative people ! ❤️

[@megjournals]

Awh thank you!

[@suzanne4258]

I really enjoyed seeing your collection of journals. It's interesting how it takes awhile to figure out what size and style fits you best...and then I suppose it can change as time goes on, too. I am a beginner to junk journaling, and have always made my covers, but I am going to try a TN soon. Thank you for sharing.

[@megjournals]

Thank you! It's also fun to experiment too!

[@amyt6254]

This was so extremely helpful! I really appreciated seeing how much you got out of journaling no matter the type of page; from collages to documentation to journal prompts to lovely decorated pockets. All of your journal pages are wonderful! Thank you so much for giving us these ideas and examples!

[@kellercrucita550]

I never get tired to watch again and and again this channel. Thanks a lot!

[@megjournals]

Thanks for watching!

[@melindamclauchlan1373]

They are all beautiful Meg. You have such a good eye for design. You place everything perfectly. Such a joy to watch you xx

[@megjournals]

Thank you for watching!! :)

[@piratelvr35]

This is SO INSPIRING to me. I'm finally collecting a bunch of stuff and want to start, and this shows me how I can combine my random "junk" and ephemera that may not be 100% my style, and really combine it and make it my own. Great work and such beautiful books!

[@profdingles]

I love all your journals! One can see the evolution, still they're all so beautiful! Congratulations!

[@gabrieledrewery5910]

Really enjoyed seeing all your journals! Beautiful! Great ideas. Like your style!

[@MariJadeWrites]

So lovely to see all these journals, thank you for sharing! :) so inspirational!

[@megjournals]

Thank you for watching!! ☺️

[@ambermyer7411]

Loved your video, I’ve been intimidated by journals but you have helped me relax and just go into it with ‘fun’ in mind…thank you.

[@madilynbeaner7484]

Tuning in from Iowa. I love the way your journal and randomly glue things in that you like. I also love your painting of flowers. You do a great job. You have given me ideas to do a journaling of small items I have collected and pictures I have taken from magazines and books. I am going to try being creative with it and see how I do. You have beautiful printing. Not everyone can print like that. Thanks for inviting us in to see your various, beautiful journals. I made about 8 journals during the pandemic. Lots of fun.

[@megjournals]

Hello from across the pond! Thank you so much. 8 journals during the pandemic is impressive!!

[@MandaFandaa]

So inspired by this to just get in my journal and play.

[@marthastrickland7148]

Such lovely, fun and interesting journals! I wish I had this type of picture of my younger years. You will so enjoy looking back and remembering years from now. Thanks for sharing!

[@megjournals]

Thank you, it's so fun to look back (especially all my travels pre-corona lol) :)

[@danielle7061]

I love this soooo much. Every page and piece of your journal is a piece of art. Thank you for sharing with us.

[@MyBookishJourney]

I've fallen so terribly behind on your KZbin vids, so I'm literally gonna be watching one each day while I journal myself 🤭 current situation: cutting florals, as that is very megjournals-y

[@megjournals]

❤️❤️❤️

[@joiedefi]

What a stunning collection. So hard to choose a favourite from this pile of beauties. Love the use of maps for a cover. I'll watch and pick up some ideas and inspiration 😉💜👍

[@megjournals]

Thanks Joie! 😄

[@aleksandra.s.89]

Such a beautiful collection of journals! TFS 💕

[@megjournals]

Thank you so much! :)

[@emilyinwhite]

You’ve inspired me to play with different sizes and themes. 🦋

[@megjournals]

Yay!!

[@cerarod4248]

These are true junk journals. I love them all❤.

[@nancynorris9822]

I love how you've kept your journals and that you're willing to share your crafting growth! I'm new to this type of journaling and a new subbie to you. I like your ideas and I'm collecting ideas from everywhere to put into an idea book. TFS🤗

[@henrietta9206]

Meg is the coolest junk-journaller I have seen in my life, tfs hon! ❤ _(singapore)_

[@annhoung9800]

I love your junk journals. They are beautiful and original!

[@katherinec3463]

I love these journals. I just have to tell you that your page with the mountain that says, You will make it over the mountain, is Mount Rundle in my home town of Banff and I have been to the top of it! I always love seeing pictures of home!

[@theblankjournal615]

Absolutely beautiful…each one is unique in its own way and I love the composition ❤️

[@sarahelizabeth6342]

I love your style!!!!! Such creativity!!!!! So happy to have found your channel.

[@CarolinaCanada]

I see that on every page you have a great eye for putting things together in a pleasing manner. I am so impressed with your first junk journal...it is clear that you had a vision and a style from the very start. Keep creating. This is all really beautiful work. ❤️🇨🇦

[@megjournals]

Awh what a lovely comment, thank you so much!

[@mandyofmarymac]

Just found you, It's ll/ll/21, so I'm a little late to your party. You and I share the same style. I had all this ephemera tucked away in draws, books and even my grandmothers recipe book. Since I started gluing my favorite things in, of all things, a pretty Martha Stewart magazine, i haven't stopped. It's been so much fun. You do a lovely job...never stop.

[@carolewatkins1171]

I really needed this video today! I’m inspired to get my journal out and just jump into creating again. Thank You🌸

[@patriciawalker9470]

Love 💕 your journals. I am so enjoying looking at them as your browse through! 👍 Thx a bunch for sharing. 🙂

[@katelovell625]

These are some of my favorite journals on KZbin. I’ve been so uninspired lately it’s been hard to journal but you’re really helping me out. Thank you so much

[@eileenthomas9983]

Ohhh, I just loved seeing your journals, they were such an inspiration to me. I love the colours you choose and the way you placed everything together so artistically. Thank you for sharing.

[@kschickle916]

This was a fascinating tour of your journal journey. I absolutely LOVE each and every journal you walked us thru. I’d love to adopt your style. It’s the most creative I’ve ever seen.

[@ms.chocolate3470]

This was so freaking cool to watch! I love all your journals

[@megjournals]

Awh yay thank you!

[@Tammilea]

Thank you for sharing all of your journals absolutely lovely. Love them all.

[@megjournals]

Thank you so much!

[@vicb635]

Cheers Meg. It’s this lovely community of creative ppl that inspire and motivate me. Onwards and upwards 👉 PS so very pleased that you are back on YT 🙌

[@megjournals]

Agreed!! Thanks for watching!

[@kathyryder828]

Thanks for sharing! It was neat seeing your style evolve. Lots of inspiration here.

[@megjournals]

Thank you, it's a good reminder that we're constantly evolving in our journals, especially as beginners :)

[@Rockwooddream]

I absolutely love these! You have definitely inspired me to start junk journals again. Thank you

[@megjournals]

Thank you, so great to hear that! You’ll have to join in with this year’s JunkJournalJuly challenge that I’m running on my Instagram ☺️

[@a.katherinesuetterlin3028]

Hey there, from a Statesider! I love what I am seeing. I like the experimentation journals especially, because that's sort of where I am. So many people, at this point, seem to be hyperfocused on the vintage vibe, which is great and all, but I don't always like certain aspects of it, color-wise. ("Sepia toned everything" or "vintage-toned" flowers gets a bit boring, just saying. 😜)I hate feeling corralled in by what's considered popular, or what so many people think should *always* go in such journals. Your channel, so far, is therefore a breath of fresh air. Love it! 😁🙏

[@lauracerezo7623]

Thanks for sharing, they are all great, I like the art and collages and I like that I’m not the only one that just leaves pages and moves on. I have a few junk journal I’m working on at the same time but all of them are a works in progress! I’m never finished lol

[@megjournals]

Thank you, love the idea of them being works in progress!! 🥰

[@retrofavorites8972]

a picture is worth a thousand words . . . great video . .

[@AutumnMoonArt]

Aw, loved seeing a poem ‘To Autumn’ 😊🧡🧡 I love all the different bits you manage to collect. Although our styles are different we share a love for pretty papery things, memories, and the joy of gathering it all within pages. 🌸

[@megjournals]

Thank you! 😊

[@deborahdettor1694]

[@EmmaDurrans]

Loved seeing flip throughs of all of your journals. Thank you so much for sharing x

[@redbear4350]

I loved each second of this video. Your journals are so beautiful and " lived". I still struggle a lot in filling my journals. I Hope my style Will be more " felt" someday.

[@megjournals]

Thank you, I am sure it is! I always feel that way when I see other journals :)

[@naomigreen6957]

I just loved seeing all your beautiful journals! Thanks for sharing! You make me want to go create and not worry about anything in particular. ☺️

[@megjournals]

Yay! Thank you :)

[@anneinva13]

Love ALL of these! Will keep this for reference. Love the fact that they are actual "junk" journals, but still SO gorgeous. I admire your quirky style--I don't like the real prissy ones I have seen on a lot of channels. TFS!!!!!!

[@megjournals]

So glad you enjoyed!!❤️ Thanks for watching!!

[@Creativeplayeveryday]

These journals are lovely! Thanks for sharing!

[@megjournals]

Thank you!

[@RhomanysRealm]

There’s a Søstrene Grene in Manchester! You walk down from Piccadilly to Costa, turn left and it’s just there by the exchange.

[@lindsayj30]

Love the map one! 😍

[@heyseaville55]

Thank you so much for sharing these. Must be fun for you to look back through the pages and recall certain times and feelings. I'm impressed that even though you have so many pages and elements tipped in, your journals don't appear to be extremely chunky. Is it because of the soft covers, or do you just start with few very base pages in the beginning?

[@megjournals]

Glad you enjoyed! It's definitely cool to look back on things. Yes, adding fewer pages when you bind your journal will allow for any bulk you add. :)

[@elle-em]

I just absolutely love your style!!! It's so inspiring. Do you think you'll ever sell journals again?

[@megjournals]

Thank you! I don't plan to, but you never know :)

[@annwieland1]

[@Samreen0987]

[@lisagreen3778]

I love your creativity! Mai I ask what brand of marking pen do you use that doesn’t bleed through the papers? Also, do you generally try to journal something each day?😃

[@betinabjerre5428]

Thankyou for aaaaallll your inspiration 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@craftyazshabbyshacjude3297]

[@gardenvarietyvegan4096]

So beautiful!

[@kayjay9516]

Love your current journal, am really liking the smaller size. What brand are the leather covers please?

[@megjournals]

Thanks so much! I did a longer flip of my current journal here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/a3W4p3eGa7l-fs0 and my journals are by GraceAndSaltInk :)

[@beverlyblake8502]

Beautiful, thanks for sharing

[@smf1104]

Did you sew in your sigs or just washi tape them all together?

[@kayjay9516]

I found your previous flip through thanks and have ordered a gorgeous InkDori pink pocket book size. Can I ask what size junk journal (in cm) you make to fit in? I want to make one ready to go in when it (she?!) arrives home 💕

[@megjournals]

Ah awesome!! Mine are A6, depending on how chunky your journals end up you may want to trim your insert to be slightly slimmer so minimise any overhang, but the height is perfect.

[@michafateh6641]

I love your journal ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@ana-acem.]

Beautiful ideas ¡¡¡¡ thank you for Sharing 😁

[@lucyfanning7496]

So inspiring.

[@purpleplump6650]

Love your journals, I've made a few but I really struggle filling them !!!! I just don't know what to do with the pages !! 😕

[@megjournals]

Thank you, have you tried following along with journaling prompts? I am hosting #junkjournaljuly on my Instagram next month which might give you some ideas to get started. :)

[@purpleplump6650]

@@megjournals thanks ! I've started following you on IG so I will look out for your July prompts, sounds just what I need !! ❤

[@rebeccajourney3183]

Reminds me of a glue book...definitely junky!

[@wongo79]

[@DorothyJanetoo]

Just found you and love your channel!

[@Sheamarie]

Awesome.

[@ИринаИрина-я2з5с]

Очень красивые блокноты!

[@WestAussieDiamondArtReads]

How long does it take you to do a junk journal?

[@shirleybarron9995]

Did you sew your signatures and or did you just put a band around them

[@megjournals]

Most of the time I sew my journals but I did show one where it was bound with elastic in the traveller's notebook cover. :)
