Resuming My "Junk" Journal

Tweet

I keep a junk journal, which means I use mostly materials that are found or for recycling. There are no rules for it, you use whatever material, format or aesthetic you want. I prefer this format because it's so carefree, I get to re-use materials that would otherwise be tossed, and it's unique to me. I do like the aesthetics of journals with a uniform format, but I don't have a budget for those fancy stickers, papers, and highlighters. I view them for inspiration, but I still end up doing whatever works with whatever materials I have on hand. I would like to think that this also helps our household in recycling and limiting our trash. As I go over my stuff in our office, I noticed that my last journal entry is August 27th. Prior to that, my entry was for August 2nd. I was not able to keep up with it, I admit I wasn't in the mood to write. But now, after being rested somehow settled, I want to resume. My poor journal will now have to jump to September after only 2 pages of August.
