Journalling isn’t just about writing—it’s about capturing moments, layering memories, and making a beautiful mess in the best way possible. If you’ve ever felt like traditional journalling didn’t quite fit, junk journalling might be your creative match.
What is Junk Journalling?
Think of it as a scrapbook meets diary—filled with layers, textures, and total creative freedom. It’s where ticket stubs, old book pages, pressed flowers, and scribbled thoughts all belong together. There are no rules, no perfect pages—just you, your memories, and the joy of making something uniquely yours.
Your Junk Journalling Essentials
✂️ The Golden Scissors – When you’re cutting out vintage illustrations, magazine clippings, or delicate paper scraps, precision matters. These are your go-to for making every snip satisfying.
📖 The Handmade Leather Sketchbook – Thick pages, ready for layering, pasting, and inky scrawls. It’s the perfect home for your creativity—sturdy, timeless, and made to hold every memory you throw at it.
🖊️ Pigma Micron Pens & Coloured Fineliners – Whether you’re doodling borders, writing daily musings, or adding detail to your layouts, these pens don’t smudge, bleed, or let you down. Throw in some gel pens for a pop of metallic or pastel fun.
📜 Stickers, Keepsakes & Wax Seals – The finishing touches! Decorate your pages with vintage-inspired stickers, tuck in old postcards, and seal little notes with a wax stamp for a true ‘found treasure’ feel.
