Turning a Brown Paper Bag into a Vintage Valentine’s Junk Journal Folder

Hey hey In today’s video I’m turning a simple brown paper bag (yes… the one I got with my shopping!) into a beautiful vintage Valentine’s mini folder for my junk journal 🤍 It fits perfectly into the large back pocket of my journal and is filled with layered tags, lace, distressed labels, vintage style photographs and little love snippets. Proper junk journaling at its finest – using what you already have and turning it into something sentimental and special. I’ve used elements from my Valentine’s digital kit throughout this project and I love how soft, romantic and slightly grungy it feels. There’s something so satisfying about taking something that would normally go in the bin and giving it a second life. If you’ve got a brown paper bag at home, grab it before it goes in the recycling… you might just have your next journal insert! Let me know in the comments if you’d like to see more “use what you’ve got” junk journal projects like this 🤍 ✨ Valentine’s digital kit details are linked below.
