A Year in Pages: An End-of-Year Junk Journal Flip-Through

 

As the year starts to wind down, I always love taking a moment to look back — and one of my favourite ways to do that is through end-of-year junk journal flip-throughs. There’s something really special about seeing all the art created throughout the year gathered together in one place. Each page holds a memory, a mood, or a little moment of creative joy.

Over the past year, I’ve filled my journals with layers of paper, scraps, textures, pockets, tags, lace, and fabric — all the little bits and bobs that slowly turned into meaningful pages. Some spreads were calm and gentle, others bold and playful, but every single one tells a story about where my creativity was at that time.

In this video, I’m flipping through my journal and revisiting the pages I created throughout the year. It’s a relaxed, cosy look back at the art, the experiments, and the ideas that came together over time. Junk journaling really is like a visual diary — even when there aren’t words, the colours and layers say so much.

If you enjoy reflecting on your creative journey, or if you’re thinking about doing your own end-of-year flip-through, I hope this inspires you. You don’t need perfection — just pages that feel honest and personal.

Here’s to celebrating creativity, progress, and all the art we make along the way — one page at a time. ✨📖

Fantasy and Folklore- A One of a Kind Junk journal.

This OOAK Fantasy and Folklore junk journal has been such a joy to create. This one-of-a-kind journal is packed full of imagination, storytelling, and all those little details that make junk journaling so magical. Inspired by fantasy worlds and folklore tales, every page invites you to slow down and let your creativity wander.

I filled this journal with layered pages, pockets, and textures, mixing papers with fabric ruffles, lace, beads, tabs, and tags. No two pages are the same, and that’s what I love most about it. Each spread feels like a tiny story waiting to be told — a place for notes, sketches, ideas, or simply to enjoy as a decorative piece in your creative space.

This journal isn’t just about writing; it’s about exploring and playing. You can tuck things into pockets, flip open hidden details, and enjoy all the little surprises tucked throughout. It’s the kind of journal that encourages you to experiment and use it in whatever way feels right to you.

If you’d like to see the full flip-through and all the details up close, you can watch my video here:

I hope this journal inspires you to gather your own scraps and create something truly magical and personal. Sometimes the most enchanting things are made from the simplest bits and bobs. ✨

🌙 Whimsical & Magical Building a World from Scraps: My Fantasy & Folklore Junk Journal (Part 6)

This July I’ve been deep in #JJMadness — and I’m excited to share my newest creation: a fantasy & folklore junk journal, made completely from scrappy bits and bobs! 🌙🧚

Starting with a bunch of old pages, leftover papers, and random bits I’ve collected over time, I slowly shaped them into something magical. I layered textures, added torn vintage-looking pages, little pockets, tiny charms, and whimsical touches that whisper “mystery” and “story.” It feels like I’m building a little world on paper — one page at a time.

Watching the journal come together was such a gentle, joyful craft session. I let my imagination roam: maybe a fairy lives behind that pocket, or that ragged edge hides a secret letter from an ancient traveller. That’s the beauty of junk journaling — you don’t just make a pretty page, you make a universe.

If you’d like to see the whole process — the messy beginning, the layering, the charm-searching, and the final magical spread — I’ve got a video for you. Watch here:

If you craft along with me, I’d love to hear what kind of stories you end up imagining in your own pages. Let’s turn scrap and randomness into something full of wonder.
