Hello and Welcome to my channel. I'm Susan- small business owner and creator (and re-creator) of Charmed Salvage. I have a craft booth at Finders Keepers in Heath, Ohio. My interests are thrifting, upcycling those items people think are no longer useful, finding vintage items and working with textiles.
Recently retired, I am finding that my real interest in working with textiles and mixed media are my passion. I especially enjoy making Junk Journals. The thrill of the hunt (just like thrifting) for the items for a specific journal and creating a work of art that can be used for just about anything your imagination can come up with- memory keeping, photo book, art book, ephemera holder, travel diary, coffee table book- you could even write a book in your junk journal! The possibilities of the uses for junk journals are as limitless as the beauty and themes.
Stop by for tutorials or flip throughs of journals and the creative process of add-ons, for example tags and tassels.

Another newbie here. This journal is astounding!!!
Beautiful journal!!! It was fun to see more of a “journal” junk journal!!! I would love to know how to make that hidden paper clip & the middle signature portfolio!!! I love all the interesting papers together, I struggle gathering my signatures & thinking through what I want - I’m sure I’ll get better at it each time I make a journal!!! Thank you again for sharing!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks so much Kristen! It is hard for me to keep them simple. Can't wait to see one of your journals! ❤
Thanks for watching and your kind words!
I've not gotten into junk journals... yet. But I really like the idea and yours absolutely fascinate me! This might sound stupid, but is the journaling part the actual putting together of the different media, or do you actually write in them like you would a regular Journal?
Thanks so much! No questions are stupid! The journaling part refers to actually writing in them. You can use them in all types of ways, as a diary, art book, glue book, sketch book, make lists, whatever you can think of. In Chapter 1 talk about what to do with a junk journal if that interests you. You should give it a try, they are fun😊
@CharmedSalvage_by_Susan I watched your very first video and then this last one in the series, but I will go back and watch the whole series. They are just so pretty!
Let me know if you have any other questions! I am no expert, but would help where I can.
This is so beautiful! And what a great first video. I'm impressed ❤️
LOVE!!! Thank you for this series!!!
Thanks Kristen! ❤
Absolutely gorgeous journal! Love love love the cover!!!
Thanks Karen!
Oh my goodness, what FUN!!! Yes, I get lost in the embellishment part too!!! I love the idea of clusters but maybe I am overthinking mine because I normally don’t like how they turn out!!! I’m looking forward to what else you are going to teach us!!!
Thanks for coming along! Appreciate you!
Wow!!! You are so impressive!!! Love all the tips from using embroidery floss (didn’t know that was an option) to the different closure options!!! My favorite TIP was the flat iron to decrease the wrinkles in your ribbon!!! I guess that will be added to my thrifting wish list!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks Kristen! I could sooo go down a rabbit hole. Glad you were able to pick up a couple tips! I can't wait to see your December journal.
Love you videos
Thanks Jean!
So many great ideas and a wonderful next step to get us collecting for our junk journals! Piper is home sick today and this was very good creative therapy! Excited to get to collecting!
Hope Piper feels better soon! Thanks! Going to try and get the next one out within the next couple days! I want to get mine done 😉
I never would have thought of Kool Aid!!! Thank you!
And now we are watching this one again to see all the possibilities! 🥰
Awww, thanks! It warms my heart that they are excited to make their own!! Can wait to see what they create ❤️
Me and the girls are so excited about this series! We learned so much and are going to get our supplies and watch again!!
I'll be sure to get the next one out ASAP! Thanks so much for your support!
I’m so excited for this series!!! I know I am going to learn so much from you!!! The idea of having boxes/bins going to collect items for upcoming themes - LOVE!!! I think the cover or look of a journal is my biggest hurdle but the idea of decorating the cover last was very helpful!!! Look forward to chapter two!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks Kristen! I hope you make one and have fun doing it...can't wait to see it if you do! I am sure it will be amazing.
Piper is LOVING this! She wants more and to learn how to do each part of these books! I love that you showed how she used the journal as well! Great job and you so love your granddaughter!!
So glad Piper enjoyed it! I'll have tutorials coming on how to make a junk journal...editing, lol! Tell her to start collecting, magazines, packaging, etc. Some stuff her mama can maybe find at GW! 😉
I'm a huge Harry Potter nerd, myself! Love how you pulled this together, and your mixed media pages are gorgeous. I'll bet your granddaughter loves it so much! ❤
Thanks so much! It was a fun one! 😊
Adorable journal. ❤
What a fascinating and fun junk journal! I bet Isy is just thrilled with it❤
Thanks Karen!
Thanks so much Kristen! That will be coming.... hopefully after a retreat 😉
This journal is beyond sweet!!! I love the colors, the vintage tidbits & that middle signature was so fun - maybe you can share how you made it!!! I would love to see a journal in progress, what it looks like as you fill it in!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Sweet friend, I loved seeing all your ideas come to life!!! My favorite has to be the Owl Journal Cover - it’s so pretty!!! As a mixed media fan, I appreciated hearing your tips, favorite products & any other wisdom along the way!!! You are a gem & it’s so much fun seeing you on UA-cam!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Thank so much Kristen!
Hi Susan - what a fun video - the saw was so unexpected and so beautiful! Your use of different mixed textures is so inspiring - love the button pumpkin (so much dedication there!) and the birds with the music is my favorite for sure! You really did a great job on repurposing unique materials - thank you for sharing with us!
Thanks Cindy! That is so nice ❤. It was fun!
Absolutely love getting messy!’ Now I need to order the gel….
Are we creating of we aren't?! Lol Thanks Sylvia! Heart❤
Gorgeous 😂😮😊
I loved that you thought of your grandchildren along the way. Great haul, it gives me some good ideas.
Thanks!
Love this so much! I’d love to do a start to finish journal along with you. I’m currently teaching myself by binge watching many wonderful creators like yourself. I’m trying to make a fairy themed one now.
Good luck, you can do it. So much fun!
Beautiful journal. Nature is my church so I love everything about it ❤
Thank you!
Lovely nature journal! 😊❤
Thank you! 😊
Yay! Welcome to youtube. GORGEOUS journal - tfs! 😊
Thanks!
GORGEOUS!!
Such a beautiful journal. I'm amazed. I found your video calming.
Thank you so much!
My sweet friend, I LOVE YOUR JOURNAL!!! It’s so lovely, each little detail & how beautifully you carried the theme throughout the journal!!! This is my heart passion too - mixed media, textiles, vintage, repurposing & now, I am beginning junk journaling!!! Yes, keep the flip through coming, I would love to see a few pages from a journal you have used/written in & having a multi video series on how to create a journal would be amazing!!! Also would love videos where it’s all about flips or all about pockets or all about tags!!! I cannot even express how excited I am for your channel!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks Kristen, that is sweet. Too bad we aren't closer, we could do a craft day together! Well, I guess in October, that could happen 😉
Wow!!! That journal is amazing!! And I can’t believe that was your first video!! You did a fabulous job!! Can’t wait to watch more!
