Junk Journal with Embroidered Cover
Today I am sharing the finished Summer Junk Journal (no 1) in all it’s glory. I love how it feels in my hands, and how it looks with the decorated and embroidered cover.
I like how the soft fabric art piece changes when you make it into a hard cover for a journal like this, it’s the same but still totally different, if you know what I mean.
I like how the plan with the L (for love?) ending up at the spine worked.
I love how the lace piece works well with the fabrics that are peaking out behind it.
I love that it looks like a patchwork, just like my paper patchwork journal covers do.
This art piece that is available in the shop right now, but it is also a usable item: a journal with an eclectic mix of papers inside to fill with ephemera, photos, words or colors!
I love how many pages there are!
I showed more of the embroidery pieces in my previous blog post Embroidered Junk Journal Covers where I talked about materials and techniques a bit.
Today I just wanted to share these yummy images of the journal, and a video showing of the inside pages of course, because I love things like that.
