Junk Journaling with mementos from my birthday weekend


We bopped around town, tried new cafes, went to a few different places, I unwrapped gifts, received cards, collected pamphlets and any memento I could during my birthday weekend.

We spent time in Downtown West Palm Beach and tried a new tea bar. I kept an event flyer. Then we went to the Salty Donut. Our donut box came with a paper liner that had this cool design on it, so I asked the barista for a new one I could use in my journal. I also kept the receipt and part of the donut packaging.

Then we went to the Palm Beach Outlets and I kept a pamphlet, part of a Miniso bag, my Miniso receipt, and packaging from the mystery toy I got. 

I kept tags from the clothing items I got to wear during my birthday weekend, wrapping paper and cards from my gifts, and pieces of the birthday decor we used. 

I'm so glad I have this hobby because it is a special way to document memories and I want to prioritize it more.

In the video below, I share each item I saved and a time lapse of me putting everything together in my junk journal.
