SECOND IN THE WHEEL OF THE YEAR JUNK JOURNALS....................Samhain

 

Good Day my Peeps!

Well the second in my Wheel of the Year Junk Journals have been completed. This time is SAMHAIN and one of my favorite of the Pagan holidays. Again I was inspired by products from 

GYPSY CRAFTERY

Samhain is all about autumn and all the coors that go with that. I have to tell all of you that I am having the best time coming up with these books.

If you would like to see all my Journals I invite you to visit my Etsy Shop at

FIRST IN THE WHEEL OF THE YEAR JUNK JOURNALS...................Beltane

 

So a few months ago I was introduced to a shop on Etsy that had the most breathtaking junk journal kits, the shop is called GYPSY CRAFTERY and I bought a few kits. as I started looking at them I thought it would be fun to do a collection of Junk Journals based on the Wiccan Wheel of the year. The first one I did was BELTANE. To me Beltane represents spring and the color green so I created this book. I invite everyone to visit my Etsy shop at

Happy Crafting!

BRING ON THE STARDUST

 

So this week my project was inspired by the Junk journal kit "Stardust" by GECKO GALZ. Along with some Luna Paste in White and a wonderful dangle for one of the rings I was inspired to build this amazing one of a kind Junk journal. In the Summer I find myself going out and star gazing, it is something that dates back to when I was a child.

I invite you to come check out all my Journals at my Etsy shop

OCEAN BLUE JUNK JOURNAL

 

So for this week I was inspired to do a mermaid junk journal, and what do you ask inspired this book? Well it was the amazing wooden pieces I found at JoAnn's and the kit by Gecko Galz. You cant think of summer without thinking of Mermaids and the ocean and fishes so that is what inspired this 6"x6" 16 page book. It is full of dreamy images and tuck spots and so much more!

thank you for stopping by and checking out this weeks book/craft.

Have a beautiful day!

HABERDASHERY JUNK JOURNAL

 

So this week my craft of the week is the Haberdashery Junk journal I created inspired by images from Gecko Galz and their challenge. It is almost Fathers day and I thought I would try to inspire everyone to do their own Junk journal...with all the tuck spaces you can hide gift cards and cash and photos of your day. These books end up being great items to pass down from Generation to Generation.

Thanks for checking out this weeks project and tune in next week for another fun crafted item by moi!

Happy fathers day to you

GRANDMAS SEWING BOX JUNK JOURNAL

 

Well I am at it again creating new junk journals that I will put up for sale in my Etsy shop....so I thought I would share the most recent one with you and was inspired by my mother and Grandmothers Sewing rooms. This one is called Grandmas Sewing Box and the cool technique I did was take marbled tissue paper and crinkle it and glue it on each page so it resembles pattern paper.....was it hard no time consuming YES!

The products I used were from Gecko Galz and the book is from Studio Cee on Etsy.

So I ask you to leave a comment and tell me what your think!

Have a crafty day
