    Victorian Sunset Junk Journal

    May 10, 2022 /

    My Inspiration The inspiration for this Victorian Sunset themed junk journal came from a custom order. The request was for a Victorian theme using all the colors of the sunset. Orange was the main color for this journal along with complementary colors of yellow, gold, burgundy, green and cream. I like to start each of my journals with a focal piece. Something to base everything else on. In this case, it was some upholstery fabric I recently got from a thrift store. Using this piece, I gathered all my other fabrics, laces, appliques, trims ribbons and papers that coordinated with the fabric. As you can see, there is not any…

    Loaded Vintage Christmas Fabric Junk Journal

    December 11, 2019 /

    My inspiration Every year I tell myself I am going to start on my Vintage Christmas Junk Journals and crafts in October. Time goes by so fast, the holidays are already here! I have been collecting everything to do with the holidays throughout the year, so I had enough to inspire this journal without purchasing anything. Great for me since my stash of junk journal supplies is ever growing. Cover construction I put the cover together first for this journal because I knew the fabric I wanted to use. Using fabric mod podge, I covered the outside of a coffee filter box (which was just the right size, 6″x 8″)…

    Botanical Themed Vintage Fabric Junk Journal

    November 13, 2019 /

    My inspiration Often, I don’t have a specific idea in mind when I start a new junk journal. My inspiration comes from many sources. Whether it is Pinterest, Instagram, Facebook or YouTube, I always know I will be inspired by all the beautiful images/post/tutorials out there. Although in this particular case, the idea came to me after I found a remnant of vintage fabric at a thrift store. I absolutely fell in love with the colors and images on this fabric! With my new inspiration found, my thoughts and vision for this journal were forming. I chose to stick to the pink and blue color scheme along with green and…

    The Workbasket-Shabby Chic Fashion Ladies Junk Journal

    August 13, 2019 /

    The Workbasket– what is that? A homemaker arts magazine from the 1960’s. This shabby chic fabric and paper journal was inspired by a copy I picked up at a thrift store. The image of the beautiful lady on the front cover was from one of the pages inside. I love to look at these magazines and see how times have changed! The cover was put together using a method entitled “fabric paper or paper fabric”. The YouTube I watched was by Ronda Winstead. Definitely check it out. The process is fun and easy! All pages were constructed before attaching them to the spine. I started with a piece of neutral…

    Beautiful Burgundy Botanical Fabric Vintage Junk Journal

    July 19, 2019 /

    This vintage junk journal beauty was inspired by the burgundy fabric I picked up at a thrift store. It ended up being quite large, due to all the embellishments and ephemera I included. But hey, I am of the mindset the more the better! I started with 6 8×10″ pages of thick neutral colored card stock, then took the burgundy floral fabric and cut 2 pieces that also measured 8×10″ (for the front and back covers). Next, I pulled out various lace, fabric and craft paper pieces and cut them to approximately the same dimensions, until I had 10 total (using mostly cream and off white lace/fabric for this part).…
