Hello, my friends!
Welcome back to Crash Your TRASH – Episode 32! It has been a while since we visited this series, and I’m so excited to dive back into using everyday packaging and scraps to create meaningful junk journal ephemera.
In today’s video, I am transforming:
• Two clothing tags
• A narrow book wrap pulled from a cookbook gift
I gifted my granddaughter a Sookie cookbook for her birthday, and when I saw the beautiful wrap piece around the book, I instantly knew it had journaling potential. Instead of tossing it in the trash, I brought it home and turned it into a sliding belly band wrap that fits over the edge of a journal page. It allows for large cards on both sides — so much functional writing space!
I also created:
• A tall bookmark using clothing tags
• A slim piece that can be used as a dangle or tucked into a pocket
I love seeing beauty in what would otherwise be discarded. This is exactly what Crash Your TRASH is all about — honoring scraps, packaging, and forgotten bits by giving them new life inside our journals.
Stay tuned — I will also be doing a longer-form design video creating this concept with digital images.
Thank you for being here and for seeing potential in the everyday with me.
