Autumn Junk Journal; Art Journal; Fall Theme Journal with Ephemera; DIY Junk Journal; Unfinished Journal for you to fill; Handmade Art Book

I made this Autumn themed junk journal. All the pages are hand sewn into the book cover I created with creamy colored wool and batik cotton fabric and freehand embriodery on the sewing machine.

The inside cover and back cover has a yellow printed cotton fabric lining and pockets to store your keepsakes. There are 6 signatures of 12 pages each that all have my original art on the signature covers. I have collages with gelli-plate printed papers I made myself with some fabric, ephemera, paint, and other found objects that fit with the aesthetic of the book. There are also some eco-printed leaves on fabric that are made into pockets.

The pages within each signature include Edith Holden book pages of beautiful nature illustrations, plain green art paper, music sheets, digital prints of mushrooms, birds, leaves, and flowers, vintage Atlas map pages, brown packing paper, tree book pages, and artist book pages, and some coffee dyed papers. I added some tuck spots, journaling cards and tags, and a few pages that flip out for more writing space.

Most if the pages are unfinished for you to make this your own personal journal for your thoughts, dreams, keepsakes, memories, pictures, etc. I included a large handmade envelope made out of vintage pic music sheets and stuffed it with little ephemera goodies and scrap papers to get you started on your creative journey.
