In this video, I’m preparing the printables, dyed papers, and other page elements for the 4 signatures that will go inside my Country Cottage Junk Journal. I’ll be using the hidden spine method to bind the signatures to the cover, and I’ll show you how I organize and prep everything before stitching it all together.
Most of the beautiful printables I’m using are from My Porch Prints on Etsy – be sure to check them out for gorgeous junk journal kits and ephemera!
