Before I started my 52 week journal project, I hadn’t been journaling regularly for a long time. In fact, before I started the last time I journaled was April or May!
But since I’ve started I’ve gotten the itch to keep journaling, keep playing, keep learning and being messy. And I want to do it more than 1 a week.
So I made another new journal!
I bought some charcoal paper, because it was super cheap, and made 2 signatures of 16 pages each. The pages are pretty thin but I’ll be gessoing most of them so it’s okay.
I also just bought some pretty duct tape and needed a heavy cover and with the move I have a TON of boxes lying around. I actually really like it as the cover
I’ll stop talking and show pictures now!

As soon as I get some work in it I’ll show you all
I also can’t wait to decorate the covers a bit, leave most of the instructions for assembly showing and making it all look pretty.
Have a good long weekend!

oh they’re soo easy! I know 3 different kinds of bookmaking. Maybe I could do a quickie workshop on one if enough people are interested.
