How to make a scrap junk journal ✂︎ Trashy junk journal

#trashyjunkjournal #junkjournaling #scrapjournal
This is the process I take for creating a scrap-page junk journal, which I then use as a creative space for making art, including lots of collage art. I use a long-arm stapler to put in the signatures.

I like creating "journals" from torn up magazines, old maps, mail catalogs, lined paper left over from old notebooks, or whatever I think might make good pages in a book. It's a trashy junk journal. I'm not too concerned because I am going to collage or layer all kinds of other things on top of the pages, and I might cover up a lot of the original page.

I made this video because people had questions about how I assembled my Pita Cracker junk journal, and I decided I would film this process of making a new one, part by part.
