Discover the joy of creating a mini junk journal that celebrates imperfection and creativity. This workshop invites you to explore a variety of repurposed materials such as old artworks, test pages, receipts, and found papers to craft a journal that is uniquely yours. No two journals will look the same, as you will assemble and compose intuitively.
You will learn a simple binding technique to stitch the spine of your journal, but the focus is on embracing the surprise and beauty of the process rather than precision. Whether you bring your own materials or use those provided, you will leave with a finished mini junk journal ready to use and cherish.
This workshop is perfect for those who enjoy hands-on creative activities and want to give new life to discarded papers, making art objects that are both personal and meaningful.

- Assemble and compose your journal intuitively.
- Stitch your journal together using a simple binding technique.
- No prior experience is needed; all materials and tools are provided.
