Junk Journal Obsession
I’ve discovered junk journals back in 2015 and since then I love to create and refurbished old *junky* journals that otherwise were meant to join the trash bin. 😁 I knew this kind of ‘journaling’ is going to be my favorite {and it’s been so ever since} just because I can practically use whatever materials I have at hand.
