Miami Crafty Event 

Junk journaling is a form of scrapbooking in which you take things from your everyday life (think: scrap paper, stickers, photos but also receipts, candy wrappers, plastic bags, junk mail, sky's the limit!) and incorporate them into a collage, usually in the form of a journal spread. You don't have to buy much to get started - if you have a glue stick and a pair of scissors, you can immediately start junk journaling. This craft is sustainable; you give new life to items that would otherwise probably end up in a landfill. You can junk journal alone of course, but it's even more fun in a group!

About the Organizer

Miami Crafty is a crafty event page run by Ana Ordoñez. Miami Crafty has hosted various crafty events, including junk journaling, vision boarding and even a clothing swap. You can follow @miamicrafty on Instagram for future events and crafty ideas.
