Do you enjoy creating junk journals? Do you enjoy writing in your junk journals? Would you like to start creating and using junk journals but aren't quite sure where to begin?
These are questions we sometimes think about when trying to decide the best use of our time. Let's face it, we all have many things we would like to accomplish but don't seem to have time to fit everything in. I have found that I have to choose a few things to prioritize and add them to my schedule or I just won't ever get to doing them. This is how it is with journaling. I love both making and using junk journals. I think the thing I love the most about junk journals is that they can be made however you want, with whatever you want and just plain whenever you want! There aren't any rules. I find that it's easier to schedule time for creating and using junk journals when I participate in a challenge. However, if I find that I can't keep up with the challenge, I usually end up not completing it and giving it up. I have done that more times than I want to admit!
Because I enjoy creating and using junk journals, I decided to challenge myself to work in a special junk journal once a week. I'm going to have one journal that I use only for my junk journal weekly challenge.
I created a prompt list for March - June. Each week has three prompts listed that can be used however I want. The prompts are just to get me thinking and help me not to spend too much time trying to figure out what I am going to do in my journal. I'm going to try and make a YouTube video each week showing how I am using the prompts. I will try to air the videos on Wednesdays. It will be my #junkjournalweekly Wednesday! I will also post pictures of my journal page/pages on my Instagram page.
I hope you will consider joining me in this challenge! You can use one, two or all three prompts. Do as little or as much as you like. The link to the first set of prompts is below. Take a look and see what you think!
I would love to see what you come up with. If you're on Instagram, please use the hashtag #junkjournalweekly in your post. I will highlight some of the posts in my Instagram stories. Feel free to tag me @helenjeannedesigns.
If you aren't on Instagram or if you would like another place to post your pictures, you can join the Junk Journal Weekly Facebook group.
I explain the challenge a little more in my YouTube video. While you're there, please subscribe and hit the notification bell if you would like to be reminded of my weekly videos and updates.
If you don't have a journal and would like to participate, any blank journal will be sufficient. You will be adding your own creativity so it will be beautiful in no time! I made a few blank journals that I am selling right here on my website. I hope to replenish them as they sell. You can find them here:
