The Ultimate Guide to Making a Real Junk Journal/Part 1  @49dragonflies
Uploaded March 2026 | Updated September 2026, 2 hours ago
In this video I start a junk journal made using only packaging paper - papers that usually get thrown away.

This is Part 1, where we select packaging papers and transform them using simple tools like markers, pencil, stencils and acrylic paint to make interesting journal pages.

In Part 2 we’ll assemble the finished junk journal by creating a spine, finishing the cover and sewing in the signatures.
