What Is a Junk Journal

A junk journal is made from books that were destined for the land fill. They are then taken apart and new pages are made for the book which consist of hand dyed paper, antique and vintage ephemera. An old book is given a new lease on life once again. All books are hand made and one of a kind. Custom themes available upon request
