Junk Journal-Mania

If you've known me for a while, you know my love and adoration for Heather Stillufsen runs LONG and strong!! I recently purchased another journal from Heather's Etsy shop, and wasn't sure that I would use it...as I tend to savor, hang onto, and hoard the beautiful journals much more than I probably should.

When they're so dang pretty...how can a person "muck" it up with a pen and ink?? Well...I decided this one would be different, and I decided that my love of Heather and my love of Junk Journaling would be combined! I decided that this Stillufsen journal would be my new Junk Journal, and I can't tell you how happy I am that it is!! The first two pages make me so happy...words hardly describe my joy. Here they are:

What I have decided to do is leave the backside of each page blank so that I can add my thoughts, gratitude and prayers for the day on that page so as not to soil the actual journal page itself. If you would like to journal along with me...comment below, and I will create a Junk Journal event on a day that works best for all on the Handmade Treasures by Jan FaceBook page. That would be so much fun!! Cheers and Journal Joy, my friends! Jan
