5 out of 5 starsI haven’t even had time to look through all of these treasures yet, but I can already see that this is one of the best packages of goodies that I have ever received from Etsy, or anywhere! It ranks right up there with the care package I received from my grandmother when I was at summer camp in 7th grade. I’m 54 now, so that’s saying something!! Thank you, Wendy!!!!

5 out of 5 starsWendy, this book is amazing. I so hope you continue to create them. The only suggestion I have for a change is for you to double your prices! The books you craft are so worth it.

Thank you so much Rhonda! I am so very happy you enjoy your journal. Creating them is an absolute passion of mine. No doubt about it, I will absolutely continue creating...I am working on a handful as we speak. 😉 I am in the middle of a move so it is taking a bit longer than usual unfortunately, but everything will be back on track soon, including accepting custom orders, so keep an eye out👀 I do try to keep my prices reasonable as I want everyone to explore the joy of junk journaling! 🥰 Have a great one and I'll be seeing you! 💞

5 out of 5 starsI just had to leave a review because these two journals from Wendy truly meant something to me 🤍 From the moment I opened the package, I could feel the care and love she poured into them. Every little detail—from the textures to the way each page was put together—feels so intentional and unique. I especially love all the little surprise tucks, pockets, and envelopes tucked throughout… it made exploring each page feel like opening tiny hidden gifts. You can tell Wendy isn’t just making journals—she’s creating something deeply personal and artistic. She also threw in a HUGE envelope of extra goodies with each one I can use in them! What a beautiful touch 🙏 Wendy, thank you for putting so much heart into your work. It truly shows, and I’m so grateful I found your shop. I will absolutely be back for more 🤍✨

Vanessa, WOW… this truly means so much to me 🤍 Thank you for taking the time to share such a thoughtful and heartfelt review. Reading your words reminded me exactly why I love creating these journals in the first place. Every texture, tuck, and little hidden detail is something I pour myself into, so knowing that you felt that connection when you opened them is incredibly special. I’m so glad you enjoyed exploring all the pockets and surprises—that feeling of discovery is something I always hope to create ✨ And I’m happy the extra goodies found a good home too! Thank you again for your support and kindness. It truly doesn’t go unnoticed, and I’m so grateful you’re here. I can’t wait to create something for you again in the future 🤍 – Wendy

5 out of 5 starsThis junk journal named Imogene is stunning! She’s absolutely beautiful! I’m so happy with it! Thank you so much!
Wendy responded on Mar 27, 2026
Hello Kim, Thank you so much for your kind words 🤍 “Imogene” was such a special piece to create—she’s actually named after my grandmother, which makes her even more meaningful to me. Knowing she’s now in a home where she’s so loved and appreciated truly means the world. I love that you connected with her—each journal really does have its own personality, and hearing that she feels beautiful to you makes my heart so happy ✨ I also want to say how much I appreciate your continued support—it never goes unnoticed, and I’m so grateful you’ve chosen several of my journals to be part of your collection. Thank you again, and I hope “Imogene” continues to inspire you every time you open her 💫 – Wendy

Frequently asked questions
Are your junk journals and papercrafts “perfect”?
Nope—and that’s the fun part!
All items are handmade, mixed media, and intentionally imperfect. Distressed edges, uneven cuts, layered textures, wrinkles, and visible glue or stitching are part of the design and artistic process—not defects.
If you’re looking for factory-made perfection, this may not be the shop for you (and that’s totally okay!).
Custom and personalized orders
Returns are not accepted for imperfections, artistic style, or personal preference. Every item is clearly photographed and described so you know exactly what you’re getting before you purchase.
Please read listings carefully and review all photos prior to checkout
Do you accept returns or exchanges?
Because all items are handmade and one-of-a-kind, I do not accept returns or exchanges for:
Change of mind
Buyer’s remorse
Expectations of perfection
Color, texture, or thickness preferences
Custom and personalized orders
If your order arrives damaged during shipping or you receive the wrong item, please contact me within 48 hours of delivery and include clear photos of:
The packaging
The item
The damage
I’ll happily help resolve it.
Are your items made with new or recycled materials?
Yes! Many pieces include vintage, reclaimed, or repurposed materials, which may show signs of previous life and wear. This is intentional and part of the charm of junk journaling and altered art.
Custom and personalized orders
Absolutely! Custom orders are welcome when available.
Please note:
Custom and personalized items are final sale
Minor variations are part of handmade art and cannot be controlledequest a custom or personalized item?
Will the colors look exactly like the photos?
Colors may vary slightly due to screen and monitor differences. This is normal and not a reason for return.
Do you offer refunds if shipping is delayed?
Shipping times are estimates provided by the carrier. Delays caused by postal services are outside of my control and are not grounds for refunds.
