How We're Using Our June Stationery Box
If your purse, pockets, or junk drawer are hiding tiny paper treasures—ticket stubs, pretty packaging, scribbled notes, a sticker you peeled off a peach—you’re already halfway to a masterpiece. Here’s how we’re turning all those random bits into a chef’s kiss junk journal page using our June Stationery Box - which by the way was specifically designed for your junk journal!
✂️ Step 1: Start With Your Ephemera Pile
Dig into that little stash you’ve been unintentionally hoarding (no shame—we do it too). We’re talking receipts from a special day, tags from things you bought on a whim, or that fortune cookie message you couldn’t throw away. Lay them out and start playing with placement—this is your base layer, your real-life scrapbook moment.
🧵 Step 2: Add Patterned Paper + Stickers
Now it’s time to break out the Junk Journal Sticker Pad. Use the adhesive patterned paper to create little backdrops and borders behind your ephemera. Lline the edges with border stickers for some structure-meets-chaos energy. This step is where things start looking intentional.
📸 Step 3: Drop in Your Photos + Tiny Stickers
Time to spotlight the stars of the show—your photos! Whether they’re polaroids, photo booth strips, or something printed off your phone, tuck them in and use tiny stickers from the pad to embellish them. Add a flower in the corner, a smiley face, or a heart next to someone’s head. Think of it like accessorizing your memories.
👁️ Step 4: Add the Googly Eyes + Sticky Pockets
Now for the personality punch. Stick some of the googly eye stickers to add some personality - trust us, it’s hilarious and adorable. Then bring in the sticky pockets. These are where you tuck in the extras you don’t want to glue down: ribbon bits, confetti, or the menu from that dinner you still dream about.
📝 Step 5: Write Your Little Notes
Now that your spread is layered up and looking cute, finish it off with handwritten notes. Jot down the story behind that photo, what was so funny about the receipt, or why that tag mattered enough to save. These blurbs are what make your journal yours—a snapshot of what mattered in the moment.
And there you have it—junk journaling that’s fun, full of flair, and totally you. The June Stationery Box didn’t come to play… it came to make memory magic.
