Description:

Make ONE junk journal to swap!

The theme is vintage, but subject otherwise is sender's choice, but check dislikes and comply with them, please!

This book needs to be at least 4x6" and be bound together with a strong binding like thread (sewn) or glued tightly. This book/journal is expected to have that vintage feel when you look at it. The papers used many not necessarily be "old", but need to "look old". This is NOT an "antique" look journal, but, it is a retro/vintage/cottage core (but, not farm-themed) look.

Ideas to include as pages:

  • vintage illustrations

  • pages from a music book

  • ruled handwriting paper

  • blank papers for sketches or thoughts

Requirements:

  • cardstock or chipboard for cover

  • at least 5 tuck-ins and 5 tuck spots

  • sturdy binding no matter what technique that you choose to use

  • At least 24 total Pages

Optional:

  • tabs

  • ribbon

  • bookmarks

  • fabric scraps

Rating Requirements:

  • You must have swapped 30 successful swaps to be in this one
  • You must have a 4.98 or higher
  • You must not have any 1's or 3's in the last year

If you do not meet the requirements above, please do not hesitate to PM me to discuss a potential private swap!😊

I will check before assigning partners!

I wish this one had a “show & tell” section. I’d love to see what people get.

can a small ring binder be used (as long as the journal still has a vintage look) or does it have to be glued/sewn?

I will join the next one! I would need more time and I didn't see this posted until now. Its so up my alley!

Good idea, Mitziishere !!

We can start a thread in the Forums!

MissRich you may like to avoid that type of journal, since ones may be expecting a sewn or glued journal. Unless you want to communicate with your assigned partner and ask if it would be okay. (just an idea)

Thanks for asking! Kelly K
