Excellent. I'm old school and haven't used digitals, but yours look beautiful. I'm thinking of moving into the 21st century with you. Thanks for sharing. 😊
Thank you so much! Digitals can make a really fun addition to a journal when mixed with true vintage ephemera, so we hope you give them a shot! Thanks for watching! 🤍
I am a newbie too! But, I can honestly say, her digitals are all gorgeous, and they make it really easy to print everything you need! I say go for it, and have fun! 😊
Thank you for the step by step process of creating a junk journal ❤.. very easy to follow and understand ❤... Love the end results and the added charm dangle 😊
I love the way you did the brads for spine, I never seen that before, I am new to this and love all the help I can get, you make it look so easy, beautiful Judy
Thank you so much! We have lots of tutorials and playlists on our channel for beginners if you are looking for more inspiration. I'll go ahead and post a link to some. Best of luck on your new projects!

Great tutorial, I am new to junk journals. I'm using old calendars, scrap paper, old greeting cards. My dilemma is what type of glue to use without having my pieces buckle.
How fun! Fabri-Tac is what we use for glue (link in description box, under our Amazon Affiliate link). It's non-water based so papers don't wrinkle, and it works well for fabric and even metal too. It dries fast, but not too fast. It's a bit pricey, but worth it if you have the spare change!
I love this journal! It has just the right amount of ephemera and writing space for my personal taste! I've made several mini albums, but just getting into "junk journals." I have bought several of your kits already and anxiously waiting to get a better printer so that I can start printing and making some of them! They make beautiful gifts, and of course, keep some for myself!! ❤
Thank you! I was actually a little unsure if people would like this journal, so I'm so relieved to hear you do! 🤍The last few journals I've done were all brad-bound, so feel free to check those out if you are looking for more ways to decorate a brad-bound spine!
Wow, I just found your channel and I knew immediately I had to subscribe !! I don't have a printer but I think I'm about to purchase one after seeing the beautiful printables you have. You offer endless ideas that are very clever. Love your tutorials and excited to see more 💖
Hello! In the description box if you click on the Amazon shop link, it will come up with several group lists, including one at the top called "Junk Journal Supplies". If you click on it and scroll down it should say "see more supplies" at the bottom. This should reveal all the items including the bows. You can also find it in the list of junk journal supplies on our blog (also linked in description box), near the bottom of page is a long list which has the satin bows on it. Hope this helps!
Thank you for this video, Kyra! Your approach is incredibly helpful for beginners (speaking for myself) and your attention to detail is really impressive - where you take a second to bring an item closer to the camera so everything is clearly seen as you explain each part of the process. Beautiful designs, easy-to-follow instructions, and great “situational awareness” of your viewer’s visual perspective! Appreciate your approachable, pleasant personality too.👏💖
This might be one of the kindest comments I have ever received! I'm so happy you enjoyed the tutorial and noticed the work put in. Thank you so very much! 🤍
Omg! I've being seeing tons of junk journals videos for long time but never found anything that inspired me enough to create them, until now. Thank you for the pretty detailed explanation and I love your etsy shop! New suscriber! ❤🎉
This a great tutorial on junk journaling, clear and concise, especially for beginners. The journal is absolutely beautiful! I'm hooked on your products.
I can’t believe you have a YouTybe channel 😮 I’m overjoyed 😁!!! I’ve absolutely subscribed!! I’ve bought many of your Etsy Shop kits. I’m in love with your kits, thanks so much ❤
Thank you Kiera! I love your various kits and "stuff" for journals and have quite a few now. Even though I've made a few now, I always learn something (or am reminded of something) when I watch your videos. 🥰
So beautiful! And what a great tutorial. I absolutely love tired idea of the brads as binding. I haven’t done it yet, but I definitely will with my next journal. It’s such a genius idea! Thanks you for this beautiful inspiration! ( And I really appreciate you leaving in the oops, it really does help!). Hugs ❤️🤗
That journal turned out beautiful. The misaligning of the signatures wasn't even noticed. I was sewing my signatures in my signatures. I hadn't considered using brads. Brads come in a range of colors too.Thanks for that tip and sharing your videos.❤
Oh wow ! I've made lots of journals ,but I always learn something from you ! I have to try the brad binding method ! I love the fact that you showed all the "oopsie daisy" moments. I just happen to be working, playing, with a journal for my Granddaughter so I'm going to shake things up ! 😂😊❤ Thank you so much Kiera !❤
Yay! I'm so glad someone else tried it! It really is becoming my go-to. It's just so simple, sturdy and versatile. I should probably try some new ideas, but I'm having trouble letting go haha
Excellent tutorial, Kiera. I'm not a newbie at this, but I always get new tips or tricks when I watch a tutorial, and yours was no exception. You've kept it really simple, AND you kept the mistakes in, showing how to remedy the situations. We all make mistakes it seems, newbies need to know that. Thank you, as well, for the many lovely kits and ephemera you offer at MPP. I use them in a variety of projects. Hope your thumb is better soon. I winced for you every time you used it. 🥴 From Cheryl in AZ.
Lovely journal, excellent tutorial, love your calm voice. I have been making journals for many years and still found value and ideas in this video. The pink papers drew me in!
You're quite the teacher! Great video. Can you please tell what type of scissors you use? I went to affilate amazon link, but didnt see any scissors? Thx a bunny bunch!
Hi! Here are some of the scissors we like to use (affiliate link): www.amazon.com/shop/myporchprints-junkjournaltutorials/list/34B77UWKGWTV9?ref_=aip_sf_list_spv_ofs_mixed_d
Love this journal! Just beautiful! The way you made it was perfect…..just the kind I was looking for. Love how you put it together with brads too. So much simpler I think. I will definitely give it a try someday. Thank you for sharing. Cheers from Ontario Canada 🇨🇦
Hi Kyra🤗 New Subbie. I’m new to journaling. I’m trying to adorbs as much information before starting my book. I’ve been collecting all sorts of fun items. Excited to learn. 💞Dina
I'm always excited to see a video by you Kiera, you're amazing and I just love your creative style! Thank you for the inspiration! This journal is gorgeous! 😊❤
If we don't use fabric on the front cover, and the paer panels for the front and back aren't long enough to cover the spine.. what would we do with the spine area for coverage?
Hello! We have some tutorials showing how to cover journal covers with paper. You use two sheets flipped vertically and layered with one another. You can see it here at the 2:40 mark in this video: czcams.com/video/6gEF4JCITp0/video.htmlsi=jYkcxoiizvDRRs3j Hope this helps!
I usually do the base of my covers first (fabric or paper), then bind in the signatures, and then decorate the cover. Since sometimes the binding method effects how I decorate the spine, and sometimes how I decorate the spine dictates how I decorate my cover. If that makes sense? But it really just depends on the journal. Sometimes I switch it up depending on what I am doing. I think for this journal you could do either/or.
What is the little copper color holder that you pushed the one inch punch decoration into & created a dangle with called..?cambishon is what it sounded like? You said it would be in the links, but I could not find it.. and no idea what category under your Amazon
Do y'all have a sunflower digi junk jurnal kit? I want to make my best friend a junk jurnal using this method. I couldn't find a sunflower jurnal kit in your etsy. Did I overlook it?
Hello! Here are are some kits featuring sunflowers, including the "Sunflower Journal Pages Kit" and the "Sunflowers & Daisies Ephemera Pack". www.etsy.com/shop/MyPorchPrints?search_query=sunflower Hope this helps!
I am new and confused as I feel like using your kits makes the journal not my own and I thought junk journaling is using stuff I find around my house??
Hello! Making junk journals is simply a form of self expression. It's a very personal project, and there is no right or wrong way to do it, so you can choose to use or discard anything that makes your journal feel lovely and enjoyable to you. Some people use found items, some use digitals, some use a mix of both. Digitals don't make a journal any less personal or less beautiful. It's simply a material for journal creation like stickers, buttons, glue or fabric might be. Here is an article from our blog you might find helpful if you are new to junk journaling that goes a little more into detail on what a junk journal is and what you might use to make one: www.myporchprints.com/post/junk-journaling-a-z-glossary-of-terms Hope this helps answer your question!

This is the first time I've ever seen brads being used as signature attachments. What a great look!!!
Excellent. I'm old school and haven't used digitals, but yours look beautiful. I'm thinking of moving into the 21st century with you. Thanks for sharing. 😊

Oh wow..!! The brad method looks so much easier than binding in the signatures. Awesome idea, thank you ❤.

I don't have a computer. Do you know of someone who has kits already printed? Thanks.
Can it still be called a ‘junk journal’ if there is no ‘junk’ used?
It's a generally accepted term. 😉Even though it's not actually "junk" many of our kits are created from scans of old documents, etc.
I am new and confused as I feel like using your kits makes the journal not my own and I thought junk journaling is using stuff I find around my house??
