I’m so glad that there’s a creative way to store all of these things! I’m a person that gets sentimental over the tiniest of trinkets or objects that some people wouldn’t think another minute of. I’ve always kept little things like valentine cards, papers my friends gave me, etc. i never knew what to do with it, but at the same time I don’t want to throw it away. I’ll definitely try this out, it seems so fun!!
@SeapandaCrafts5 жыл бұрын
I hope you do try it out! It's addicting and a perfect way to preserve those little things you collect. It's amazing flipping through one once it's been filled up. It's like you made art out of your memories.

My very first JJ was made up of post cards, birthday and Christmas cards etc. that my grandfather sent to my grandmother when he was courting her (this was around 1915). It took me three years to put together. I included quite a lot of ephemera from around that time, photos of them and their family. I gave it to my daughter who is into genealogy and heritage .. she loves it and keeps it as a reference for her genealogy ...

Watching this in the Covid 19 lockdown in 2020. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience on Junk Journaling. If I am remembering correctly, I think I read that junk journals also started at a time when paper was a precious commodity and people didn't have money to spend on much more than necessities. So, if they had an old ledger or some kind of registry they would reuse it and paste things that they wanted to keep inside. Thank you for sharing your creative journals.
