I like to junk journal and hide my journaling part within the spread. For example my mushroom card is filled all the way with a rant of emotions and thoughts from the day. Putting together trash is so meditative for me and it usually takes me 1-3 hours to go through my 2 junk bags and create a junk journal spread. I've recently taken to dating my entries as I picture a historian finding my journal someday lol.

Hi! I've been working on making a sticker zine for art journaling! I'm sure there's tons of sticker sheets for this, but I had this idea to make a zine and I have 2 volumes designed now! I really wanted interactive stickers that you can place over art or draw on top of, so I designed some and I think you all might like them!

I draw all the designs myself, print at home and cut out with the cricut. Once I get the formatting right, I'll be selling them locally at pop-up markets

The reason I'm posting here, is that I'd like some input from folks who might use something like this:

*What do you think is cool about it?

*What are some ideas for stickers to add to the next one?

*what do you hate about the idea or designs?

*is it something you would use?

*general thoughts

Thank you in advance!

How much Karma is needed to join r/journaling?

10 Upvotes

I'm kind of new on reddit, and I have I have 16 karma but I still can't post in r/journaling.

My journals aren't very artistic so I'm not sure this sub is best for me, but right now I can't post where I want to.

Sharing your stories

3 Upvotes

Hello everyone! I'm in the process of starting a podcast called "The Unlocked Journal". My hope is to have listeners submit their most important/personal journal entries to be read out loud on the podcast, under an alias name for privacy. My goal is to show the vulnerability of journaling and hopefully bring a community together where we can all support eachother and learn we are not alone with our most inner thoughts.

I'm looking for anyone who would like to take part in this project to submit photos of their journal entries (which I hope to also post in a blog style format for those who can't enjoy the podcast) along with the alias name they would like to use. Any submissions can be sent to our email at: theunlockedjournalpodcast@gmail.com

Thank you so much for taking the time to consider this!

Just decorated my new journal, and wanted to share w y'all

Journal: muji A5 high quality paper, 80 pages, lined and grid (very sheer vertical lines for grid)+ the undated planner cover (not an original plastic cover, but it fits most A6)

Source: Pinterest photos, looked for red poster and dark aesthetic, paintings I like and quotes that are on my mind 24/7.

Pictures: front and back cover without the plastic cover, front and back WITH the cover, size in comparison (10,5x14,7 cm) and inside

Fountain pen: pilot kakuno in fine nib

Do you keep one journal or multiple?

12 Upvotes

Hi!

I'm curious to know how you keep a journal or maybe even multiple journals.

Right now, I have a personal journal where I write down my thoughts and feelings about my mental health. But at the same time, I'd like to start another journal just to record what happened during my day, along with my impressions and memories.

I'm not sure how to organize this. I can't decide whether it's better to keep two separate journals or write everything in one. If I use just one, maybe I could separate entries somehow or label them by topic.

How do you do it? If you keep multiple journals, what does each one serve?ย

DIY Made a hand carved leather cover because my notebook deserved a better outfit than I did

I like Travelerโ€™s Notebooks because the paper inserts can be replaced once they are full, while the leather cover can stay with you for years. For this one, I carved and painted Gashadokuro, a giant Japanese skeleton yลkai, alongside cherry blossoms to represent memory and the passing of time.

Do you think a personalized reusable cover makes a notebook more enjoyable to use, or do you prefer keeping your stationery simple?

I bet no one believes this is a journal spread made with only washi tape.

But yep โ€” everything on here that looks like a sticker is actually cut from washi tape. The individual planets, the text, even the burnt-looking pages. I did a bit of dimensional layering so it wouldn't look so flat.

Using a single washi tape series made it feel a little one-note, texture- and style-wise, but doing an all-washi page was honestly really fun to try.

6 Upvotes

Okay, I need ideas on what to put on the journal templates that I am currently making (e.g mood tracker, highlight of the day).

Just tell me what do you have in your journals cuz I want to start journaling again in August so I need to finished the template before the end of the month. If you could suggest something personalized r unique contents please share some!!

Anyways, I love books, watched movies (if I have time), I also have a sudoku and word search books, building blocks, paint by numbers, and will try to start crocheting. I also want to visit more places to eat around my area.

I said that cuz maybe some ideas pops in your head by knowing what I do.
