I’m the person who saves old tickets, pretty packaging, scraps of ribbon, interesting paper, envelopes, and anything else that feels too lovely to throw away. Junk journaling gives all of those little pieces somewhere to belong. I love layered pages, vintage ephemera, pockets, tags, botanical themes, travel journals, and imperfect spreads that feel collected rather than designed.
