Description
Junk Journalling is the process of creating a journal by reusing materials and a variety of papers. In this six week course comprised of six, two hour sessions, you will learn how to create a journal, exploring themes, use of colour and how you would like to use your finished journal. There is an emphasis on sustainability and reusing materials in this course. You will learn how to make ‘signatures' and bind your journal and will learn how to decorate your journal and make pockets and envelopes for the inside pages. You will develop your creative skills while improving your mental health and wellbeing and will get to make your own choices throughout the sessions.
Who is this course for?
This course is for you if you are interested in journaling, bookmaking and are creative. It is also for those who would like to improve their well-being by learning mindfulness through creative expression and for those who wish to engage with their community and like-minded people. Our courses are for people who live in Derbyshire and are aged 19 and over.
