  • I am finally back with another completed Composition Notebook Junk Journal. This is Volume 6 and covers Sept-Dec 2023 and Jan-Feb 2024
    Here is a link to my full list of Essential Art Supplies!

    For this DIY art journal, I use a regular composition notebook I picked up from Walgreens for a few bucks. A pro tip: get the ones made in Vietnam-they have better paper quality. I'm linking some if you are unable to find Vietnam-made composition books: amzn.to/4b5iYwM
    I got creative with my stash of old stickers, scrapbooking rub-ons, and masking tape for the cover. I made pockets with old scrapbook paper too. It was so nostalgic, like being back in school!
    These journals have become my go-to for tracking, writing, sketching, and using as a glue book junk journal. I filled it with stickers, magazine clippings, and bits of junk mail, inspired by the Wreck This Journal style.
    I included everything from bills to clothing tags and product packaging. I loved gluing pages together to make them thicker, experimenting with new art supplies like Uniball Signo pens, and even playing around with wet tea bags on paper.
    The process was incredibly freeing. Unlike my other art journals where I aim for perfection, this composition notebook allowed me to just have fun and experiment. It became a glue book, a tag book, a smash book-whatever you want to call it.
    If you’ve ever thought about starting a composition notebook junk journal or DIY art journal, this is your sign. Let me know what you think of this flip-through and if you decide to try your own journal. Happy journaling, friends!
    Unfortunately, Jenni Bowlin Studios isn't manufacturing supplies like the rub-ons anymore.

    Your style resonates with me and gives me some confidence to continue with my fledgling channel. I love that you didn’t add cheesy music but let us enjoy the imagery and paper sounds. Greetings from Dallas!

      Thank you so much! I have been such a slacker on here this year. I really need to get back to posting more videos. I appreciate that feedback on the sound. Personally, I enjoy hearing the sounds of creating as well.

    I think my composition books are my fav. There's just something about those covers, the size, the lined paper! Love seeing yours with the watercolor paper - good idea! I'll head on over and check your video on how you prep them. Thanks so much!

    I loved this flip through, thanks for sharing! I also put watercolour on my pages before using them for my journaling. It’s because I love the crinkle too. I thought it was only me! Glad that I found a kindred spirit. I started using composition notebooks for my morning writing and have added some arty elements to it but I mainly keep it for writing.

    I absolutely have that same problem where if I'm just casually doodling I can draw all kinds of good art, but when it comes time to translate the doodles to a canvas it's never as good. So sometimes I just enlarge and copy my doodles. That's also why I have loads of art paper that I haven't used for years.

      These particular notebooks have not been a problem. I had a couple (the ones with washi tape over the spine) that lifted but these are sturdy little notebooks. I do have book binding tape in case any of my art journals need repair.
