Junk Journaling for Cosplay 📓💖 why I started and how to make your own!
Junk journaling can be the perfect way to document your cosplays, from the tumultuous but rewarding crafting process to your adventures at con. I started my first cosplay junk journal back in March and completely filled it by the end of August. I wanted to share the joy it has brought me and how journaling has helped me fight perfectionism in my creative work. Join me in this video for a journal flip-through and set-up of my second journal!
This video wouldn't be possible without @kictor lovingly editing the privacy blurs on all those journal pages and helping me with the audio. She's my biggest encouragement in everything I create.

      @@leaf-in-beefleaf Thank you so much, I’m glad you enjoyed the video! I’m actually quite similar I think-I don’t consider myself an artsy person at all but I’ve always really enjoyed collage-style work. Rearranging things that already exist is pretty accessible regardless of skill, so it’s been a good fit. :)

    • @leaf-in-beefleaf
      @leaf-in-beefleaf 2 месяца назад

      ​@@onestitchfromhell Well said! However, even rearranging things that already exist requires a certain dose of artistic sense. The feel for what looks just right and what does not fit, the placing, colour and shape alignment - that's really important, and that's exactly the skill I've seen you display! Since you weren't the creator of the pieces you've arranged, it might feel like you hadn't done much but if you think about it, arranging a collage, be it in a frame or on a blank page in a notebook, is almost like furnishing a house. Anybody (myself included) who's ever tried it can tell that it's not easy at all! After all, there would be no need for professional house furnishing and decour services if it was something just anybody could do... In conclusion, you seem like a pretty artsy person to me! ;)

      I was just thinking earlier I have a TON of old magazines that I never finished fully reading and that I've been keeping because my completionist mind thinks I will someday read them.

    I’ve been wanting to start a junk journal but as a perfectionist I’m always afraid to to anything that can be “permanent” on a page but this has made me want to actually start doing it to remember memories and moments with friends and my animals. Thank you stitch!

    • @onestitchfromhell
      @onestitchfromhell 2 месяца назад

      Perfectionism is something I struggle with a lot! When I first started junk journaling I really had to force myself to let go of little imperfections like scribbled out words or wonky doodles, and it was rather hard for me to “commit” to using things like stickers. For example, it took me weeks to add the first sticker to my cover and months for me to slowly add the rest. But every time I ended up feeling happiness instead of regret. 😂 If you’re the same way, I definitely recommend starting out with true junk-stuff you’d throw away anyways. When that becomes easier you might find yourself using the “too nice to use” stationary and whatnot! At any rate, I wish you the best of luck and hope you can give it a try even if it takes some courage!
