TOP 10 JUNK JOURNAL THEMES | My favorite themes for journals

[@susansmithey5317]

Thank you. So much fun! Glad you showed up on my feed this morning. I’ve done color themes. Two of my favorites are light blue and white and mint green and pale pink. ❤

[@junkjournalsbyjen]

You are so welcome! Mint green and pale pink sound so lovely 🥰

I enjoyed seeing all the journals! This is my first time to "find" you! I like to have my junk journals about the particular season I'm in, ephemera that I've collected, stuff and poems that I like. Like the scrapbooks were "back in the day!" I like to take an old cover, and tie the signatures in with a loop of elastic, so pages can be added, moved around, or taken out! I like the size of 4.25 X 5.5 pages, but sometimes I go smaller, just for fun! Thanks for sharing! Hugs!

[@junkjournalsbyjen]

Welcome to the chanel! So glad you are here! I love tiny journals!

[@ChasingRetro]

My favorite theme is "retro." More specifically mid-century, the retro drawings of children and families and fashion, etc. Thanks for the fun video! I agree, I like no-theme journals too :)

[@junkjournalsbyjen]

Thanks for sharing!! Retro is such a great theme for a junk journal. I love it!

[@janekrut2799]

Your journals are remarkable - my favorite of yours is the no theme - love it! I like botanical. Am enjoying your videos. Thanks.

[@junkjournalsbyjen]

Thank you so much! 😊

I made a MASSIVE boho journal as a gift. I think I love boho!

[@junkjournalsbyjen]

@@TheJourneyContinues-sbm Boho is such a beautiful style! When you say massive, how many pages are you talking about 😊?

Hi Jen, I love your Journals. You have lots of talent. I am joining your channel. I know you will grow your channel...God Bless...Dar

[@junkjournalsbyjen]

Thank you so much and welcome to the channel!

[@juanitafrank7030]

I just purchased your Ocean themed, Christmas, Pink and Black and SteamPunk Journals from your etsy shop. I'm going to give them as gifts for Christmas!!! I would have bought the botanical theme but some lucky person must have beat me to it. Thank you soo much. I love your Journals. I'll be back next year to buy more.

[@junkjournalsbyjen]

Thank you so much for your order! I'm packing it right now with love and care! You definitely got some of the favorite journals I've ever made. I hope you and the future recipients love them as much as I have. Once again, thank you! - Jennifer

[@connied3309]

The altered book of pockets is a favorite of mine. I made one from a large cookbook, then I created tags of my favorite recipes. It’s big and chunky with room to add more recipes, and bookmarks for section dividers.

[@junkjournalsbyjen]

That sounds wonderful! What a great idea!

[@carolcody6270]

I love your ideas.

[@junkjournalsbyjen]

Glad you like them! Thank you 😊

[@rochestermanagementservice6082]

Beautiful creations! TFS. From Cheryl in AZ

[@junkjournalsbyjen]

Thank you so much!

[@cherylb9956]

I am terrified of binding too! The “ no theme” makes me breathe easily! I will start and pick papers I like! So thank you very much! New subscriber here!

[@junkjournalsbyjen]

Thanks for subscribing! The first step is the hardest but there is a world of discovery waiting for you. I'm so excited! Keep me posted on your journey :)

[@loraschnare2414]

Thank you so much I’ve been trying to figure out junk journaling, and now I understand it because of your video thank you very much

[@junkjournalsbyjen]

You are so welcome! That makes me so happy to hear!

[@lisapalmese7935]

Stunning

[@junkjournalsbyjen]

Thank you!

[@Lulu-he9dp]

Those are all wonderful journals and ideas. It's fun to gather materials up and group them by theme but a lot work with any theme. i like a sewing theme for myself or a friend that has that interest, using old patterns and packaging among the pages and fabrics/laces. Put in a couple pictures of her with quilts she made and it's personal. Pockets to hold needle packets, etc. Garden themed ones are great too with veggies and flowers and make pockets to hold seed packets. Include pictures of their garden or favorite plants to personalize. Thank you and looking forward to more videos and catching up with your existing ones.

[@junkjournalsbyjen]

I love both of these idea!

[@laurieharris8569]

this was a fun video! My favorite themes are farm /country, florals, botanical, and Christmas so far. I am venturing into retro vintage for a domestic style journal of the 50's and 60's, and want to do a Woman's Journal, because I have so many beautiful pictures of women. Themes are fun, and I totally agree, that not having a theme is also a great idea.

[@junkjournalsbyjen]

Thank you! Love the idea of the 50's and 60's journals.....I've been wanting to do a 50's pinup journal....

[@junkjournalfriday]

Hi from Canada. No theme probably my favorite as well. Just discovered your channel and subscribed. Thank you.

[@junkjournalsbyjen]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@414justzoot]

Beautiful journals! My favorite theme is a prayer journal.

[@junkjournalsbyjen]

Thank you! Prayer journals are a beautiful way to incorporate art and inspiration :)

Wow your number one is wonderful, my favourite type to do, a true junk journal👍 love them all though ❤

[@grenaesjournals2726]

Beautiful journals and some great ideas. Thanks for sharing! My favorite themes are Fall, Christmas, Bees & Coffee/Tea. I made a puppy themed journal for my youngest granddaughter.

[@junkjournalsbyjen]

Thank you! I love your ideas for journal themes!

[@marleenovergaauw5932]

Gorgeous! Love the Steampunk and all nature themed journals.

[@junkjournalsbyjen]

Thank you so much!

[@marleenovergaauw5932]

​@@junkjournalsbyjen Would you please consider filming a flip through of the Steampunk Journal, like you did for the Sunflower and the Pink and Black junk journals?

[@junkjournalsbyjen]

I sure can! That would be fun!

[@junkjournalsbyjen]

Wanted to let you know that someone purchased the steampunk journal before I could film the flip through. I'm so sorry. Were you wanting to get ideas or were you interested in the book for purchase? I'm asking because I gave my husband a steampunk/ dragon journal and maybe I could do a flip through of that for you?

[@marleenovergaauw5932]

@@junkjournalsbyjen No problem. I would love to see a flip through of the journal you made for your husband. 😎

[@ToyotaB-Darlene]

Beautiful Journals Love them all. Would love to watch you make a journal or show how you make some of the amazing pockets you have in the journals. God Bless Hugs Darlene n Lulu (fur baby)

Thank you so much! Check out my series on creating a junk journal! I post to it every Thursday.

Jayne Eyre is one of my favorite classics I've read numerous times. What wonderful uses for these books!

[@junkjournalsbyjen]

Thank you! I'm glad you think so, I do!

[@kellymclaughlin1725]

I love the ocean theme and your no theme ones!

[@junkjournalsbyjen]

Thank you for your input! I love to hear it!

[@crinkledpath]

Hi Jen, first time seeing your channel so I subscribed! My favorite themes are lifetime, or era -50s, 60s, 70s, 80s… etc, memory journals but I also really love the challenge of doing custom commissioned themes for people who want something unique. I’ll have my latest custom ordered journal up on my channel next week. Thanks for sharing all your journals!

[@junkjournalsbyjen]

I love custom journals too! Thanks for joining!

[@barbaradempsey893]

They are all so very beautiful! Looking forward to going back to binge your videos and see you make them

[@buckmanly1635]

I absolutely love your journals. Your passion for what you do is awesome. Do you do anything on Tic Toc? I’m sure I speak for 1000’s that we’d love to see some of your work there as well! Keep up the good work

[@junkjournalsbyjen]

Great suggestion! Thanks for your support and welcome to the channel!

[@TheMajmeister]

Hi Jen, I just stumbled upon your site this morning. I love the idea of a theme because it helps keep my mind focused (somewhat) rather than how it usually is - scatterbrained - which results in me not getting anything done!! I love anything nature related for my journals, but liked your idea of a Dr. Seuss theme - do you have any videos on that? I am not sure how I would do it - mix pages from different books or have one book as the main theme. . . Anyway, thanks for sharing your ideas, I especially loved the sunflower journal. :)

[@junkjournalsbyjen]

Welcome and thank you! I don't have a video or the Dr. Sues journal, I gave it as a gift. I did use a couple of different books, some fabrics, some pictures I printed.....it was a lot of fun!

[@TheMajmeister]

@@junkjournalsbyjen Thanks - I want to do a journal around Peter Rabbit - and wasn't sure how much of him I should include and still call it a Peter Rabbit journal!!

[@junkjournalsbyjen]

Hmmm...the person I gave the Dr. Suess journal to loved turtles also so I combined the two things. I used the cover from Yertle the Turtle from Suess and then used some turtle papers i found and mixed and matched. She loved it! Do you have a recipient in mind?

[@mzb10zar]

Love the no theme!😊

[@junkjournalsbyjen]

It is a very freeing approach to journaling!

Wow absolutely Gorgeous.!!!!!!

[@junkjournalsbyjen]

Thank you so much!

[@pshore1977]

Wow how long do you take to make each journal. All beautiful ,😊

[@junkjournalsbyjen]

That is such a great question and a difficult one to answer as it depends on so many things.... if it's a writing journal or discovery journal.....how carried away I get in the creative process....how obsessed I am with the theme...... Anyway, usually 2 to 4 weeks.

[@lisapalmese7935]

I Love to use a certain direction then through in something unexpected!

[@junkjournalsbyjen]

I love that....throw in a twist!
