Junk Journal Collage Ideas From ‘Free’ Junk Mail & Magazines - So Many Wonderful Ways To Use Them! 

I love what you've made today, Nina. I'm kicking myself for throwing such a lot of brochures and catalogues away - though I still have some left. As you may imagine, I'm off now to have a good rummage. Such an interesting video. Thank you!

Love those postcard collages! That magazine cover is gorgeous and made stunning tags! Thanks for the inspiration!

Amazing how you turned random images into a cohesive whole. Love the spring spread!

Looks great, I don’t think I would be able to use the cut outs like you do, but wow! Great job .Thank you xx😁🌺

These are great! I expect it took you ages to make the pages with all the selecting and cutting etc. The end result is definitely worth your time. I've used an estate agent's brochure lately for collage, something new for me, but inspired by you! xx

Hi Nina, I just discovered your channel and I'm loving your ideas, very inspirational. As I'm new to journalling, I was wondering how you deal with the problem of type from the back showing through your pictures? I find with thinner paper images, unless I put the image on a dark background, the print from the reverse of the page shows through. Do you ever have this problem?

Good morning nina...browsing through magazines is what I love doing, finding pretty images and I have lots of them, next week a friend is coming over and she can browse through them and we will create pages for journals we are making, love to share images so they are used...Like the magazinejournal a lot.....In dutch the word spring means jump and that is what we are doing take the jump to a new season, can't wait....Have a good week nina, love and a spring-hug lena xxxx

Gorgeous 🌺🌸 🌹

I really loved these spring pages, so pretty,,,, I often cut things out from those magazines then put them away to use ,,,xxxxx 💗🌷

Love the bird and flower collage...such a great idea...

A nice easy week but a very effective journal coming along! x

Those magazine pics make lovely pages! So pretty ☮️💟

You have certainly made the most of the prompt Nina . A wonderful spread , welcoming Spring . Have a great Sunday . Kay xx

You always find the most amazing images to make into such beautiful pages! These are fab because they are something most of us can find!!! Love your journal. Love the pages you created today! TFS. Have a wonderful week! 💞🙏🌹🌻

I think these are great pages Nina, I've bought 3 of these books from Hobbycraft too, now I know what I can do with them. I've got loads of Modern Garden magazines. Loads of fab images and inspiration. Never thought to fill them like this.

Such wonderful use of the junk mail we all get! Thanks, Nina, for the inspiration!

Oh they are so colourful, I love garden brochures I enjoy using them too. My gluebook is made from a magazine where I've folded each page in half lengthways and then I glue the images onto the pages... I have removed some pages as well so it wont get too bulky ha ha 😉🤣🤣❤️💙💛🧡💚 I love your tags too from the cover... I think it needs some gnomes or fairies in amongst the colourful trees 😁😁🌼🌳🧚‍♂️🧚🧚‍♀️

I love doing collage from magazines! Yours are so beautiful! Tfs! 😃 Chelley - studio74usa

Lovely Nina. I’ve been watching your videos since before you started that book. They’ve become part of my Sunday morning routine with a cuppa and a sneaky lie-in. Thank you 🙏💕

So lovely and happy!!! Hope you have a happy, springy week! Here in Seattle we had 70 on Thursday and today snow is predicted! Typical crazy spring weather! Take care, thanks for another great video! 👍✌️❤️😊🌸

Enjoyed your video this morning! And your telling about Leeds, I was there about 18 years ago for a musical concert and honoring of WW II British veterans! Such a lovely place! My son and his small family lived in Kent at the time!

Ibuy very few Digi. The ink is too expensive. So I have been cutting out images from catalogues and magazines from the very beginning of my junk Journal Journey. I truly love watching you do this video. It was very affirming and inspiring

Great video. Love how the pages came out. Patti

Definitely inspiring, Nina! Thankyou!

Oh I just love Spring, so love your collage pages! 🥰💜🧚‍♀️

I throw my brochures in the garbage! But no more. You've shown just how easy it is to rise above the junk and create a thing of beauty. Thank you so much. Patricia from NSW, Australia. Xx

Hi I’ve just stumbled upon your video and it’s really inspiring. I’m thinking of making myself a little kit so I can do this sitting on the sofa when I want to do something creative but have a limited energy. Thank you so much for the idea.

Thank you for sharing. My very favorite material to use is trash. I make all of my journals from trash and junk mail as well as my monthly planner. I seldom buy anything other than glue and pens. When I do buy materials, it’s from charity shops. My sisters are artistic and know to save all their trash for me so I get interesting materials from them too. I really enjoyed watching your process.

What a great collage page! I love free images, I find a lot of source material in informational tourists guides in highway rest areas and hotel lobbies. I love harvesting them, now I need to actually start gluing them down! Thanks for the flip through, too.

Beautiful work Nina

I love your creativity! Plus your accent 💜💜💜love from Tennessee USA

Nina, your page is so pretty, I knew there was a reason I still have a pile of flower/seed catalogs as well as a folder full of images I have already cut out of other magazines. I will find my magazine journal as soon as this warm bundle of dog leaves my lap and see what I can put together. I hope your weather is wonderful and you enjoy your time till we meet again.🐦🐞

Beautiful images for collaging very bright they look really good in your book. I originally came from a town near Leeds

Wonderfully organized 🙏🏻💯🕊❤️✨

This is wonderful. And thanks for doing your fussy and other cutting off camera.

Wow i love what you have done today It so beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

I subscribed to Bird and Blooms magazine just for collage.

Fabulous postcard and Page tfs Nina...Kia Kaha...

you have very colourful junk mail Nina, great pages and love the tags. Have a great week

I really like this, I have floral cutouts set aside. Thanks for the inspiration.

I love your use of vibrant color! I wish I got junk mail like yours.

Love your page! I have lots of garden catalogs I need to do something pretty and interesting with.

Awesome pages. Your ideas and talent are so incredible. I am always so excited to see new videos from you.

Is there an artist for the image on the front of the magazine from Leeds? Lovely images you have found Nina xx.

Beautiful inspiration, Nina. Thanks for posting!

Amazing! I don't see myself as an 'artist' but it will be fun to try this out. Tyfs 💛

Oh my, more hoarding in my future. These are lovely Nina.

Lovely pages. What a great use of junk mail and free items!

Beautiful, Nina! Thanks for the inspiration!

You always inspire me, thank you for sharing :)

Fabulous finds! Nina, you have an amazing way of looking at things. I'm so impressed by your artistic view and it's so wonderful to see you recycling/upcycling trash to treasure! Thanks for all you do! Janet 💕

I love what you made! Looks like I'm going to have to look thru everything before I throw it out!

Absolutely so very beautiful, my word!

Just beautiful Nina!

This is beautiful and very inspiring!

Thank you! I am inspired🎨

needs more Hannah Hoch

Gorgeous page! Thanks for sharing.

Great video. Very inspirational.

Brilliant 💜🐞

What a great idea! Most inspiring thank you

I love seeing ideas for reusing mail and magazines

Love the idea of a magazine journal

You have a wonderful eye for collage ❤

Wow, really loving your pages and all the pages in your book. All of them are great inspiration. For some reason in the area I live we don't get good trash mail, it's very boring and usually about funerals! Our local Town Hall used to produce a really lovely book every year, but they've stopped doing them too. Even when you go online and ask for a brochure they don't send them out anymore, it's all shop online. I am going to have to make a concerted effort to track some fodder down. Tfs xo

These are lovely. Your journal is a great idea too

Love how you’ve used these images!

I like this idea very much.

Love this. Whar a great artist you are.

Fabulous, thank you.

Lovely postcards Nina! I love that magazine journal!!!🎀🌺💕

WOW 🤩 WOW 🤩 WOW 🤩 Nina, I really really enjoyed watching you create these stunning and gorgeous page’s, made from something we would normally throw away. This has really really inspired me to look through magazines and junk Mail and find something I can use. I really really love ❤️ this. Thank you so much Nina. Please stay safe and well too xxx Mags

Very inspiring! 🙂👍

Really pretty, Nina… you’ve got me clipping pictures out of magazines and even the weekly penny saver! They’re currently being collected for a future day… today… I want to paint! LOL thanks for sharing your creativity and inspiration in so many ways. Have a great day! 🙂

Very inspiring video Nina, I am just envious that you get so many beautiful freebies in the UK! 😄. Those trees on the magazine cover are just stunning, I would have picked up two as well! Your collages are gorgeous and I love the idea of the magazine journals! Have a great week and stay safe!💕🇨🇦

It is a beautiful page.

Great Inspiration for me today I’ve been wanting to make a journal like this with all the pictures/words I’ve cut out. I will check out your video on how you started yours which is very beautiful with what you’ve done using magazines images. It’s always exciting to see what’s new on your desk. Thanks for sharing 🥳💕

Outstanding!! 😍

Hi Nina, I love what you've done today. I often cut things out of magazines but never get the effects that I want to achieve. Your video today has taught me a lot. Thank you for sharing your brilliant ideas with us, I really appreciate it. Congratulations on your son's Graduation too. My friend's daughter recently graduated too, it makes you very proud doesn't it - and I'm not even a mother!!! I've certainly had lots of inspiration from your video today, thank you. Have a lovely week ahead. Take care, xx

Congratulations Alex! Nice spread,Nina. I ordered some free catalogs, since I don’t receive any in the mail. It would be fun to make some postcards for sending quick notes. I really love the graffiti piece you showed us last. It’s terrific. Thanks for the inspiration.

Love the tags! x

So beautiful

Very cool❤️❤️❤️

Gorgeous Spring pages Nina! And those tree images on the tags are wonderful! 🌸🌺💖🌿

I really like this idea. I always really love some of the images in different books or magazines, but they have too much shine for a vintage page. This is a great way to be able to use those images. Thank you so much for sharing Nina. Lovely 💗

Beautiful!

So lovely!

😍

Lovely!

Do you have a list of glues that you use?

Your journal is very pretty. Thanks for reminding me that I have a couple of Art Auction catalogs that I scooped up for just this kind of project.
