Making a Junk Journal with Aiyana


Have you ever wanted to make a junk journal? Well, I just made one with my niece and remembered to film it. There are some portions that didn't get filmed, but I still think this is a good one to follow along with if you're interested in making your own.

She piled 10 pieces of paper on top of each other and then folded them to create our signatures.  At that point, I used a sewing machine to keep them attached. Basically sewed right down the fold.


Luckily we found some upholstery thread to use to bind them into the cover. The cover was a box that held a frame. It was the perfect size thickness. 


I used a piece of scrap cardboard to create a template to drill the holes. You can see this on the video.


You can always ask questions too!

Check out the journal that Aiyana and I created with limited supplies. (I was at my sisters' and used items from her sewing room!)
