The “Junk Journal” can be a few things.
First, it can be a place where you write
down notes or record lists of fun information. Your creative work can also serve
as a living document for memories. It can
also serve as an interesting storage piece
that you use to stick items that you just

know what you want to do with them.
You can also use chipboard, file folders,
clasp envelopes, really anything goes

you will sew into your journal often with a
simple three-hole pamphlet stitch which I
