I absolutely love using my own coffee dyed papers. I find the horrendous patterned copy paper that used to be all the rage super cheap at thrift stores and then coffee dye it. I’ll then use the pattern on the tops, sides, and bottoms as they are. In the middle I’ll stamp my favorite images. Every bit of the paper will get used… Close second is postage stamps, I have a ridiculous collection 🤣 Surgery stinks Grace, but happy to hear you’re recovering, hugs ♥

I'm glad you're recovering. My favourite supply is food wrappers (especially chocolate bars and cereals as they tend to be colourful). Bonus if they still smell sweet; I love opening my journal to a whiff of caramel.

Hope your recovery continues to go smoothly! I love using brown waxed paper bags - like they use in bathroom stalls, but don't let that scare you off! The paper is thick and sturdy, but it goes translucent when you glue it down. I like cutting or tearing shapes out of it.

I always like a bit of torn book paper. Not unusual I know, but it just looks so good! For more unusual, I have deconstructed takeaway coffee cups to get the patterned outer layer if it's particularly pretty. Looking forward to the video! 💜

Hi all! I’m recovering well from surgery and will be filming some new videos this week!
For one video I need you to tell me what your favourite junk journal supplies are? Bonus points if it’s a more unusual thing!
Commenters will get a shoutout in the video 🩵
