Junk Journals

May 14 @ 1:00 pm 4:00 pm

Using a Readers Digest book, participants will create a junk journal, which is a handmade book made with recycled/repurposed materials. The instructor will share methods for making pockets and fold out sections in the book as well as ways to dye/stain paper will.

In the class participants would:

  • Organize the papers to put in each signature, and trim them down with decorative scissors.
  • We will make pockets and foldouts as part of the signatures.
  • We will punch the holes in the book and signatures and stitch together.

All materials will be supplied, however participants are welcome to bring personal papers or ephemera that they would like to include in their junk journal!

Recommended ages/level: 16+. All experience levels welcome
