Jenny jounal book |
1. Start with a book that you are prepared to never read again (it's not ruining, it's adding a whole different dimension) and glue chunks of the pages together so you don't have the pressure of covering every page. It's even better if you in any way, for example I once made an art book for a best girlfriend and I used an extra copy of Fresh Girls, a novel by Evelyn Lau. It was cool because the name was one allusion, but I could elect to not cover up the words and use some of Lau's own sentences as part of my collage.
2. Then I proceeded to tell the story of how we met through photos of ourselves, pictures from magazines, and my own drawings and writings. You get great ideas just by leafing through magazines and old photos, and then you can...
3. Fill in the gaps with your trusty Polaroid. It was a little time consuming (took me one whole day to put together) but was fun to make and the result was a keepsake that not only tells a very dear story, but is something that is worthwhile to display.

J e n n y journey Book
I made my first journal a few years ago and used it like a scrapbook... using it very occasionally for taking notes and keeping pictures, receipts, etc. But one day I made the decision to journal regularly and I stuck with it for several months. It was a very rewarding experience... like giving myself a gift each day. I encourage others to give it a try. Take the seven day challenge: journal for seven days and see what happens. It could change your life.
