Scrapbooking has evolved. Forget perfectly placed photos on pristine pages. Junk journaling is a looser, more expressive way to preserve your memories. Think movie stubs, concert wristbands, even that napkin with a funny doodle on it.
Anyone can start a junk journal—yes, even those who don’t think they’re artistically gifted. Supplies include junk, a journal, pens, tape/glue, and this Kodak instant photo printer (if you want to get extra crafty). Print inkless photos or make DIY stickers for $69.99 (reg. $99.99). Save 30 percent on this gadget while supplies last—we only have 50 left!
How to start your junk journal
Got a Friendsgiving coming up? Turn the event into your first junk journal spread.
The most important thing is to get pictures of you and your friends. At the gathering, you might show off your pocket photo printer. Use the free Kodak app to add a fun photo border, filter, and stickers, and print an adhesive-backed photo in under 60 seconds.
Before you head home, grab every piece of “junk” you can find for your journal: your name card, a napkin, ribbon, turkey-shaped confetti, etc. The more creative you are, the better.
Arrange everything on your blank journal page in any way you’d like. If you have any blank spots, you might find some Thanksgiving pictures online, print them, and cut them out like DIY stickers.
Great gift for creatives
If you know someone who’s into photography or Polaroid cameras, this could also make an excellent gifting option. It’s a bit more modern, easier to use, and the replacement film is cheaper. Plus, the printers come in fun colors.
