Join us for a work shop on junk journaling! We will create two spreads to get your junk journal started. Registration is required as seats and supplies are limited.
What is junk journaling?
Junk journaling is a carefree, highly personalized form of scrapbooking that transforms recycled or found "junk" into unique keepsake books. There are no strict rules, allowing creators to collage, write, and layer everyday materials—like ticket stubs, old receipts, or product packaging—to express creativity and preserve memories of your every day life.
