Wire bound journals are my favorite type for a daily junk journal.
The Secrets Journal last page has been worked. This journal was made from a vintage 70's lesson book and has some pages included from the original.
Sometimes I wire bind the journals with all kinds of crazy paper and stuff but the Secrets Journal didn't have many inclusions.
When I knew I was going to be living in the gypsy wagon and it would be several months until I moved into my next house, I made several journals in advance since my wire binding machine is in storage.
The Supreme Journal has been patiently waiting and this journal was made from a vintage record album and has lots of fun stuff inside.
In this journal there are vintage records, early 60's and 70's wallpaper, personal photos and a fun mix of vintage paper. This will certainly be a fun journal to work in.

You are just so creative and never cease to amaze me with your projects. I love how you used the album cover and even a 45 in this journal! How fun is this?

Love this new journal! I thought about asking the DH for one of his old albums to make a journal but didn't want to give him a heart attack...being the old DJ that he is. Guess that is what yard sales and Goodwill are for...or your Etsy shop. It might be nice if I actually started using the one I bought from you...what a concept. Good luck on all your new adventures.

I love your wire bound journals. I have a few of your journals, and the ones made from 70's readers are my favorite. I love their colorful covers.
