✨ Hello Sparkling Creative Souls! ✨ We have a few little treasures to share with you — and while it may sound like I’m about to knock over a whole bottle of glitter… I promise, no actual spills today.

1. A Heartfelt Thank‑You Monique and I want to wrap each of you in the warmest, most glitter‑dusted gratitude for attending, participating, and sharing your magic in this year’s Art & Junk Journal Retreat. Your comments, posts, pictures, emails, and messages have filled our hearts to the brim. Truly — you’ve lit us up so much that we’re already weaving together the next gathering: The Autumn Muse Retreat. All I’ll whisper for now is… keep September open, especially around the first day of fall. 🍂 More details will flutter your way soon.

2. A Peek Behind the Curtain We’re working as quickly and carefully as two humans with glitter in their hair can — uploading videos, finalizing prize…

Hello All!

Two short things.

1. I would like to apologize to those of you that are having issues with downloads. We have been working on the issue since yesterday and are hopeful we will have a resolution soon. I do not want to promise a specific time frame but know that we have been and will continue to do what we can to fix it. Thank you so much for your patience and understanding. We truly appreciate it!

2. What are your weekend crafty plans? There are only a few days to go until the retreat kicks off! Woo Hoo! I will be working on some albums, making a couple new shirts, making some paper crafts, and trying to figure out what to do for Artisan Pass Day! I am open to suggestions.....

I hope everyone has a restful and peaceful weekend! oooooo We could take some time this weekend and…

Hello All!!

If you come across technical problems, please send a detailed email to contact@junkjournalretreat.com for assistance. It is easier for me to track and check the issues we come across that way as I have to check in multiple areas.

Thank you for your patience and understanding as we all learn a new platform together! You are greatly appreciated!

The doors have opened, the sparkles are swirling, and our little corner of the creative universe just got a whole lot brighter. ✨📜🌙

To everyone who has just joined us for the Art & Junk Journal Retreat — we’re so happy you’re here.   Truly. Your presence adds a new color, a new texture, a new story‑thread to this magical gathering. 🎨🧵💫

We’re gearing up to begin soon, and the energy already feels like a soft hum… pages waiting, scraps whispering, ideas stretching awake. 🌈📖🪽

While we settle in together, let’s warm up the space:

🌸 Share your latest junk journal or art journal creation below!

It can be a finished page, a messy middle, a tiny corner, a background you love, or even a scrap cluster that made your heart flutter. There’s no pressure — just a gentle invitation to sprinkle a little inspiration into the room. ✂️🖌️✨

Let us know all about you if you wish to share.

What do you hope to find here?

What do you like to do? Make junk journals, art journals, create in journals, journal in journals, plan in journals, all of the above?
