Course information

Transform everyday items into treasured memories with our exciting junk journaling workshop series. Perfect for ages 10+, this creative after school club teaches children to turn meaningful "junk" into beautiful, personalized journals they'll cherish forever.

What We'll Create:

Children will design and build their own unique journals using items that hold special meaning - old birthday cards, favorite sweet wrappers, ticket stubs, postcards, and brochures from places they've visited. We'll show them how to create pockets, envelopes, and picture frames within their journals, giving them endless ways to store and display their memories.

Techniques You'll Learn:

• Paper decorating through printing and paint pouring
• Pocket and envelope construction
• Picture frame making
• Creative binding methods
• Mixed media techniques
• Memory preservation skills

What Makes This Special:

Every journal will be completely unique, filled with personal treasures and decorated with techniques learned in class. By the end of the course, each child will have created a beautiful keepsake that tells their own story - something they'll want to look back on for years to come.

Perfect For:

Children who love crafting, collecting, and creating. No previous experience needed - just bring your creativity and any special items you'd like to include in your journal.

All materials provided, though children are welcome to bring their own meaningful items to incorporate.
