  • Step back in time with me as we flip through the second eclectic junk journal with a fun, retro vibe! I’ll guide you through each page of a nostalgic creation, filled with a mix of retro vibes, artistic flair, and eclectic ephemera. This junk journal combines the charm of the past with the creativity of the present and features everything from retro wallpaper, vintage maps and hand dyed paper to hand-crafted embellishments and creative pockets. Join me as I reveal the stories behind the pieces and share some ideas for using retro elements in your own projects. I hope this flipthrough ignites your own creativity and nostalgia!
    I would love to hear which part of the journal you liked the most.

    Hi Kathleen, it was so much fun watching this flip through and seeing all the creative ways you transformed the things I sent and the pieces you added that just brought it all together. I didn't even recognize the handkerchief, but what a great tag it made. The items you combined with the wallpaper really made them pop. (It was my husband's dad who did the wallpapering of that kitchen with a 10-foot ceiling using the yellow and green wallpaper.) Thank you for mentioning me again; I appreciate that so much. The book turned out fantastic. I love the way that all those various pieces and patterns combined into a very lovely journal. I'll be watching the other video soon; I'm looking forward to that.

    Thank you, Kathleen! This eclectic one is also amazing! You have used the pieces from Linda so creatively and made such interesting pieces with them! I bet you feel good to have used the stash that has been with you for a long time! Well done, dear friend! Can’t wait for the next series! 😘 Love and big hugs! 😀💞

      My pleasure Keryn - thanks so much for your comment! Yes, I am glad to use some of these things that are a little more unusual and it’s so nice that they are not just sitting in the stash. There is so much more waiting for attention, haha.
