Bringing the junk journal community together through immersive creative events.
Linda Strahl-- we talked about exchanging email addresses during a chat earlier today so you could send me stuff for my K-Pop Demon Hunters Junk Journal. I have not figured out how to send you my email without posting it for everyone. Any idea how to do that?
Guess what's tonight y'all! PAJAMA MAKER NIGHT! ART AND JUNK JOURNAL RETREAT 2026 KICK OFF!!!!
Excited may be a little bit of an understatement.
Is everyone registered ? Kick-off tonight starts at 6pm Pacific, 9pm Eastern. Hopefully I'll be too excited to be tired. 🤣 By the way-I absolutely LOVE this graphic Monique made. Do you know who is who? 😂
I believe you are on the left and Monique is on the right 🙂
We grew! SO many new attendees over the last few days. Welcome and thank you for joining! I am Michelle-Leader of Michelle's Little Craft Nook and Co-Host for this year's AJJR!
These next couple days of patiently waiting are going to be torture! What about for you? What are you doing until the retreat opens Tuesday evening? I will be working on more albums, a fun presentation for our Artisan Pass Live Day, and wrapping things up with Monique-the one and only Misfit Crafter and host-so you guys have the most amazing experience ever!
If you are up to it-let us know in the comments below where you are joining us from and what you do to patiently wait for something so exciting to start. I would love to know!
Here is a peak at our magical creators this year! Someone has recently joined the lineup-Do you know who?

Hello from Delaware! I went through today and downloaded as much as I could so I could make plans and I am so excited and inspired. I never really understood the junk journal thing until reading things today and I think it has finally clicked and boy are the ideas flowing! (it could be the meds making me think they are good ideas and that I get it though)
Can y’all believe we kick off the retreat with Pajama Maker Night in ONE WEEK?! My brain is doing tiny cartwheels and my scissors are already vibrating with excitement. ✂️💫
I’m so curious — how do you get ready for retreats? Do you have a cozy little ritual? Do you prep like a crafty squirrel gathering supplies? 🐿️✨ Or do you just float in on a cloud of creative chaos once everything begins?☁️🪄 Let us know in the comments!
Personally, I love printing and prepping anything I can ahead of time. It helps me see if I need to restock paper, glue, or… let’s be honest… finally give in and buy a few new supplies. 📜🧵✨ It also gives me space to prep projects early if needed.
Monique and I are here to help you get set up too! Make sure you’re registered for PJ Maker Night on the 21st (next Tuesday!).…
For retreats, I print things out and make sure I've got my notebook out for note taking. I'm the type of person who watches crafting videos & takes notes, then I rewatch while creating the project.
Oooo, what a great idea!
