Junk Journal Fun

Hi everyone!

I endeavour to make art every day, but when I don't have much time or energy I pull out my handmade junk journal for some simple art. Usually that means throwing down some paint, making marks and perhaps adding a bit of collage. The junk journal pages already have color or pattern on them which serve as a starting point. I just allow myself to play and have fun!

For those interested, I have included my video of how I made the junk journal at the bottom of this post. This is a longer video (about 10 minutes) as I am demonstrating how to make it from scratch.

The above page includes a background of vintage music sheet, stamps and stencils. You can watch the YouTube shorts here:


Journal Page with Acrylic Paint

The above is a recent page I made with acrylic paint and lots of colorful layers and bold marks. You can watch the full YouTube video here:


And lastly I'm sharing the video of how to make the Junk Journal here:


Thank you so much for visiting! Have a great week ahead!

  2. I enjoyed watching all these videos, Duni. And now I want to try making a junk journal from scratch too! So I've bookmarked your instruction video for future reference. First, I have to start collecting some junk pages that I can use to make it with.

  5. My friend has started junk journaling with old children's books. I like your addition of sheet music. Junk journaling can be so personal to each individual, so it's fun to see the creativity span from journal to journal!
