Some call it a junk journal and others call it a glue book. When I searched for a definition I found that a glue book is created only from paper and glue. So . . . let's begin by folding 8.5"x11" paper in half, ending up with pages measuring 5.5" x 8.5". Decorate 10 single pages with paper and glue (washi tape is made of paper), create a cover from anything you like, and bind it together in some fashion (punched holes and thread/ribbon, sewing, glue, whatever you choose). There's a tutorial I found HERE of a flip-through to give you some ideas about how yours might look when finished. Your pages can have themes or simply be random; feel free to create 2-page spreads if you like; each 2-page spread would count as 2 pages. Your finished glue book should be more a work of art than a place for your partner to journal so there's no need to leave open space for journaling. If you are assigned an international partner, please feel free to mail your glue book 'opened'; that would be 6 flat pages (10 opened pages = 5 flat pages + cover) and you should be able to mail it affordably Lots of room for creativity! |
