TRASH to TREASURE⚡️Junk Journal Flip Through | Janethecrazy

Woo-hoo! Check it out - I just made a brand new flip-through of my super chunky junk journal using all sorts of trash that most folks would toss in the bin! Clothes label tags, Mcdonald's food labels, packaging, posters, flight tickets, IKEA manuals, FEDEX parcels, bank envelopes, face mask packaging, parking vouchers, cardboard - you name it, I've got it in there!
Making this journal was fun, and sharing this flip-through with you is the icing on the cake. I'm already picturing myself as a sprightly 70-year-old with a whole stack of these bad boys under my belt 👵🏼 So if you're ever feeling guilty about holding onto a bunch of "useless" stuff, take a cue from me and turn it into something awesome! Who knows, maybe you'll end up with your very own junk journal collection - and a darn good reason to keep hoarding all that trash 😂

totally understand you!😍 i love these kind of junk journals so much! it’s so fun just to put random “trash” on the page☺️

I think these books are an iykyo situation. Some of us are just blessed to find joy and see beauty in many things.

randomly found your video while looking for something to play in the background so i can also work on my journal. i use an old planner for my junk/art journal too and i love that you just paste almost everything. glad to see someone like me when it comes to journaling who just does it spontaneously and doesn't worry about it being pretty or coherent. it's like a treasure box of small mementos!

[calvinguile]

Also you’re re-purposing, not throwing things in the trash, and making something fun out of it ❤

[heyjude]

I like using the cereal box top as a tab for the journal. A happy accident! A fun and colorful journal!

[rachellegfisher]

I love this and it is honestly to inspiring! It’s hard explain to people how satisfying it is to just glue different textures, colors and junk together.

[daphnefaff]

So fun! I really enjoyed it as an artistic expression of modern life (how we currently live). Definitely a treasure!

[shondra]

I’m going through mine today, while watching. It’s my birthday month. So I’m I’m keeping all the bits from my treats I recieve. TFS I love you video. Cheers from Aussie.

I love using trash in my journals. So fun to see what you have used! ❤

[pressedtflowers]

i love this so much!! i usually stick my "trash" in my (all in one) journal, so it gets chonky even within a month. you inspired me to keep a separate journal for all of the bulky things i put in my notebooks. thank you so much!

[augustoherrera]

Thank you so much for making this flip through!! You have no idea how much inspiration you give me! Love every bit of it! And I totally get the not wanting to throw away the pretty packaging or labels 😂

[cherylknight]

Love you true junk journal. Thank you for inspiration!

[JennieMaeJune]

I love all of the packaging you collect! I wish stuff was cuter here in the US. I also like how you’ve turned them into artistic collages. I’ve started little weekly journals with trash, dreams, ideas, memory keeping, etc. come check them out!

[susiescraftroomandstudio]

A true junk journal. You did an amazing job. Blessings and Hugs 🤗

[faesdays]

This is not something I’ve ever thought of doing but it’s actually so cool! Not sure if I’d do this but it certainly inspired me to be a little less “perfect” with my journal and stick some interesting things in there

[radiogirl]

A true junk journal. I love how you used all the different things here. So much fun to watch your flip through!

[paperlovesscissors]

This was so fun to watch! I think these scrap tell your story. I love how you’re reusing the trash to something artistic! Keep it up!😊

[aleksandra.s.]

Love this so so much! 😍 Even though you used 'trash', your pages are still composed so well - it's super inspiring and pleasing to see! Definitely a treasure! TFS 💕

[grlRex]

JtC, thank you so much. I have bunches of sincerely aesthetic, cute and pretty thank you notes, labels, ribbons, crinkles box-fillers, etc. from all my stationery hauls from this and that country as well, plus fountain pen bottled ink boxes —oh! 😮& I’m making an outrageous bookmark charm from some multi-colored ink cartridges as well. I love chonky art journals and you are an inspiration 💕💕💕

[claudialane]

I think this is very cool. You will look back on this some day and reminisce fondly.😊
