Junk journal for beginners - part one

Surprised to see a Swedish book here

the books would’ve most likely end up somewhere in a landfill, this is giving them a new purpose and use.

I used to use an exacto knife until I sliced into the most beautiful cover. Now I just make a tiny cut and rip the text block out like the Hulk! Works every time in seconds, no issues.

The Black List.

My suggestion is these books are going to be left to rot in a corner somewhere when we can actually bring life back to the book covers or the book pages...❤❤❤. I think it's a beautiful thing

If the choices are the trash or being repurposed, I'm ok with tearing the book apart.

[@mallarieluvsgirls]

yeah it would’ve been trashed. that’s why it’s called a junk journal

[@L3xi76]

A book for a quarter??? Dang

[@liesjebeverly]

What is a junk journal used for?

[@uniquewhimsy622]

Anything you like. It’s art you can use. You can write you thoughts in it, use to store recipes, collage art, paint, put your paper keepsakes in it, glue your photos in it, literally anything you want.

[@mallarieluvsgirls]

it’s just fun art
