    Learn how to make a no-cost, proper junk journal using recycled household rubbish to prepare for Dephemerember. Get creative and eco-friendly with this DIY project!
    In this video I'll show you step by step how to make this super easy junk journal base using recycled household items. I'm going to use this one for the #dephemerember challenge.
    I saw this binding method on a channel called @jennibellie where she made her journal from recycled greetings cards.
    You'll need some cardboard for the cover, such as cereal box or packaging. Some food boxes or used greeting cards etc for the pages and some cotton fabric torn into strips.
    Scissors, a paper cutter or craft knife.
    I hope my videos enrich your day and provide you with some entertainment, and that you may learn something from my artistic adventures.
    If you find value here, you can show your appreciation by giving me a big thumbs up, 👍 👍 👍 , leaving a comment or a question ❓❓❓and subscribing to my channel if you haven't already. 🔔🔔🔔
    💜 I appreciate each and every one of you and send out big hugs to you all.💜Thanks for making my day. 🙏🙏🙏

      Good on you Julie, that is a good sized box to use (working my way through a packet of them at the moment, lol). Have fun with your Dephemerember adventure. Cheers

    I managed a no cost journal. I found a pillow case that was not being used for my fabric and I have lots of paper. Had doily in my hordes of stuff that I also used. It’s been fun.

    You are just amazing! This is really a very cute journal. I think it’s perfect as an art journal with all of those lovely file folders. You always come up with the best stuff to help us get going. Huge thanks for this adorable inspiration! Hugs 🤗❤️

      @leighcreates  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Aw thanks Tamara. It is a really easy and adaptable way to get a journal knocked together real quick. Have had the file folders for ages, didn't want to use them cause I loved them so much. Now they have their place in the scheme of things. Still got a few more too. Hugs xx

    Hi Leigh,
    So glad you will be doing Dephemerber 2024 once again...I will too... I always look forward to the posting your videos for each prompt..👍
    You're easy journal ideas, is such a great idea and so easy too..I might try that next time...this time I already made my journal to exchange and made it out of fabric this time and already decorated it. Thanks and have fun.❤

    I like the idea of gluing down rather than removing the tabs in the middle. Makes the edges smoother and the spine stronger. Thanks for the suggestion.

    Very very nice …. I’m going to make one as I have a lot of heavy pages to use. I will also do Drfem but I hope they don’t get too silly with another Effie or such… it used to better but yes, I’ll be there. Hug hug.

      My thoughts too. I was not much of a fan of the whole Effy theme. I hope it’s more generic this year.

    Great upcycled journal! Yes I' will participating in Dephemerember (for the first time). Quick question - are you going to add more to your pages before the challenge or just as you go?

    • @leighcreates
      @leighcreates  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Hi Jem, will most likely do them as I go, or maybe once the prompts come out. Cheers
