- TRASH JOURNAL 2021 | A True Junk Journal | Session 5
Hello, everybody! Let's spend some time in the TrAsH journal, dubbed "TRASH JOURNAL 2021." It's getting really full and really quite pretty! I love using food labels, bags, junk mail, etc. Then I add the usual embellishments: lace scraps, ink stamps, postage stamps, and all the other junk journal treasures.
Thank you so much for watching and thank you for your support!
🦋I am forever grateful.🦋

Yours is my most favorite trash or junk journal. It gives you so much freedom it’s amazing. I was trying to make junk journals but then got into a rut of trying to make it too pretty and then getting frustrated with myself because what I was creating wasn’t “pretty enough”. I was trying to make it too perfect and it was getting me stuck. I came across your video and it has inspired me to create with total freedom. Thank you 🙏🏽
Danielle, that makes me so happy! I am sometimes the same way. I feel like I am overthinking, or trying to do things the "right way" -- whatever that is. I am most happy when I just do what feels natural and use what is around me. Thank you so much!! 💜💛💙
Doing this kind of journal, shows just how much " trash" we accumulate in a day...and it's fun!
💝😊
Me too, trying to do the pretty stuff and ended up doing nothing out of frustration. As soon as this video started (I got here by accident), I knew I wanted to watch more. Magic
This journal just made my heart sing! Sooo much fun listening to all the crackling and crunching. Wish I had a sewing machine! Thank you for sharing
Hi Vickie! So glad to have you here! Thank you so much. Yes, it crinkles and jingles for sure! 😂💕🍄
Howdy! New friend here! Thank you so much for sharing your trashy! I love working with junk mail and packaging... especially food packaging because it's so bright and colorful! Yeppers... I agree... when I start saving trash... oh, my... the pile grows and grows! It accumulates much faster than I could possibly journal with it. I have to learn to be a little more selective with my trash! Blessings & Bubbles...oooOOO
Hi Patty! Thank you so much for being here!! Welcome! "Oooooo" is right! So much fun to work with trash journals and stuff that would otherwise be thrown out. 🍄💕😊
Yay! This has got to be my favorite journal 😍 I am so excited because I ordered a few goodies from you yesterday. Inspired already! 🦋💜
Hi Jes!! Awww, thank you so much!! I wondered if that was you! Your items are on the way, and I truly appreciate your support so much! Have fun with them and let me know if any issues with anything! 🦋💜
Hi Lynn ! I'm always getting so excited when I see a new video from you coming up 😁😁 After watching some of your older ones this week, I started making my very first "trash" journal and wow I'm having so much fun working in it! It's such a freeing experience !!😃 Thank you so much for the inspiration and for everything you're sharing on this beautiful channel❤️ hugs ! Sarah
Hi Sarah!! That’s awesome! I am drawn to trash. 😂😂😂 I appreciate your kind comment so much. I’m very happy to have you here. Hugs! ❤️
Inspiration has struck... Thank you so much!!
I visited Canada (from NZ) the year or so before covid happen. I collected everything. Everything.
All that sentimental (literal junk in some cases) has been sitting there because I haven't wanted to put it in a journal. Because it just felt weird to do it like that. Clashed, if you understand me. But a Canada junk journal... That makes sense!
Thank you so very much for your comment! I’m sorry it’s taken me a couple of days to answer you. Your comment meant so much to me! Happy journaling! ❤️❤️❤️
Hi Lynn. Just had to say how much I enjoyed this video that popped up on my home page. This is an awesome trash journal and gives me so many ideas to try. It really is an awesome journal. Love Trills.xx
Hi Trillian! Thank you so much!! ❤️😊
I really enjoy watching you work on your trash journals. I have been inspired to go through my junk mail and I’m going to create my own trash journal.
Thank you so much! xx
Love how you don't brown the edges...never understood that concept for true junk journaling! I do love the painty layers, the stamped words. Like all you do❣️❣️
Walking to my car from a restaurant, I found a pocket fullnof " good" trash on the parking lot💚
Hi Sheila! Thank you so much! xx
Soooo interesting!!! Had to watch again!!!
Love all graphics and so much color. Lots of whimsy 🥳
Hi Sherry! Thank you so much! I'm loving this little journal a lot! Whew, it's almost overfull after adding more yesterday. Will have to do a final flip-through soon. 😊💕
love your journal i try to put as much things like food labels and packaging in my journal i do not sew my journals or make them but i like putting just about anything in my journal. i just find that fun and cool to look back on and then it is neat to use things that would be trash
Beautiful journal Lynn. You can even make junk and throw always look artistic and pretty! My garbage never looks this nice. Mr. Kim’s got his raincoat on he’s not happy because it’s been raining, says hi to you guys!
Hi Cat!! It's so good to see your message this morning! I am sure your journals are lovely!!! All of them!
Poor Mr. Kim. I can just see him in his little raincoat.😍 Tell him to be patient. Please give him a hug from his number one fan in North Carolina!! Also Mars and Amelia say hello, and the new kitty Popcorn and the chickens next door say hello as well. I think Mr. Kim might like these gentle chickies.💕😊🌷
Came across your video and I’m loving this! I’m intrigued…I use a lot of packaging in my Creative Daily Journal as documentation of my daily life, but I’m enjoying videos about trash journals of late 😊 TFS Off to watch your playlist on this.
Hi Elizabeth! Thank you so much! I'm so happy you're here! Just hopped over to your channel, and I see you use your trash too! xx
Love, love, love the trash journal!!!
Hi Phyllis! Thank you so much! I love it as well. There is just something amazing about working with recycle and trash. 😊💕
Hi Lynn, I love your junk journal and am inspired to start one with ephemera I wouldn't normally use.
Hi Jay! Thank you! They’re so fun, as you know. Can’t wait to see what you do! 😊❤️
Oh it’s a fun one 😊I got my package yesterday and I’ve been having fun. Thank you sooo much. Hugs n love. Have a great evening

Hi Jennifer! Thank you so much! 😊
Absolutely amazing!! Love it 😍

You inspire me so much. I've never done a trashy. It's a mental block. I think it's time.
Hi Birdie! Thank you! Yes, it’s time. You inspire me too. ❤️

Hello!! I love this journal. I am new to Junk Journaling and excited with all the videos I have been viewing, I do hope to see more tutorial videos to assist me in getting started or get a Journal made. If I may ask, How did you get started and what sort of ideas do you enjoy creating? Thank you for your feedback. Christine S.
Hi Christine! Thank you so much for being here and watching! I have been keeping a "diary" for 35 years, so I was very used to writing everything down. About 12 or so years ago I started gluing things into my diaries to make more of a "smash book." It was also about that time I noticed the Stampington magazines on the magazine shelves in Barnes and Noble, so I started buying those from time to time and got very inspired by mixed media. I guess about 4 years ago (something like that) I got on RUclips to figure out how to make my own journals and I discovered a few RUclips channels: Jessica at Paper Terrace, April at Pink Odd Bird, and Liz Drake were my first inspirations. I love Old World style but also Victorian style, and gothic. I'm pretty eclectic when it comes to creating! Thanks for asking! 💜🦋🙋🏻♂️
I got some cute shoes because the tag would make great ephemera...When you know someone is a compulsive junk journalist lol.
LOLOLOL yes!!!! xx
Some of my favorite journals are made from junk 🤗. Very interesting and fun. Curious what’s the title of the art book you’re using? I’m always on the lookout for used art books to add to my stash - thanks ❤️🙏
Hi! Me too! It is A Picture History of ART. Great book for lots and lots of small images! Thank you!! ❤️😊
By Christopher Lloyd.
Try going to a frame shop that sells posters and prints. They usually have books to look thru to make your selection. The books get updated periodically. They may give them away if you ask. I still have 2of them from when I did custom picture framing more than 25 years ago.
Oh wow! I had no idea. Thanks for sharing that! Always good to hear from you. 😊❤️
😍😍😍
Ive got plenty of community coffee stuff haha
LOL so much fun to use! ❤️
Sorry to tell you this, but your junk journal is not a trash 🗑️😐😔🚫🚮 it's a artsy modern history journal
Anyone comes across this in the future, is going to to see what we had, did, and various things we liked and thought 🤔
Just wondered if you happen to realize this
Beautiful 😍 by the way
Hi Raeanne! Great point! Thank you so much for watching and for sharing that! xx
