No-Sew Junk Journals


This is cool - megjournals uses the front and back cover of a decent-shape old book and "patchworks" the pages inside using leftover papers. It's an accordian-style book.  I like it!  Watch her YouTube here.

LeNae Creates makes a journal using all sorts of leftover 6 x 6 paper (and other sized, too).  She scores each paper/page at 1/2 inch, then glues this gusset to the next piece, making sure this gusset/bound edge is even.  At the end, she glues a piece of paper around this to make a decent binding.  She adds all the usual pockets/tuck spaces and creates a pretty cool junk journal!  This is a must try!  Check it out here.

Liz the Paper Project uses four leftover/unused greeting card envelopes to make a flip book/accordian-style junk journal.  The first half of the video is her showing the finished product, but the second half shows how to put it together.  YouTube video is here.
