Ephemera Escape: Intentional Junk Journaling w/ journalingclasses
An experience for the dreamers, the doodlers, the collage-makers, and the ones who still get a little thrill from a fresh set of stickers and washi tape.
Join @journalingclasses in The CraftNook for a playful session of pure creative joy. You’ll craft and decorate your own journal—layering it with textures, colors, and little pockets of whimsy—while experiencing guided journaling prompts help you tap into play, nostalgia, and self-expression. Think of it as scrapbooking for the soul.
What to Expect:
Junk journaling & crafting – decorate your own journal with premium materials
Guided journaling prompts focused on creativity, play, and self-expression
Collaging, envelopes, and secret notes – because some thoughts are meant to be tucked away
A cozy, hands-on experience with all materials provided
A warm, welcoming community of fellow creative spirits
This is for you if…
-You loved decorating your notebooks with stickers and magazine cutouts as a kid
-You’re craving a creative escape that feels like a mix of art, writing, and play
-You want to explore journaling in a way that’s more visual, messy, and fun
-You believe in the magic of scissors, glue, and a little bit of creative chaos
-You love storytelling, introspection, and connecting with others through creativity
This is a space for both solitude and connection—a chance to write for yourself while being surrounded by a like-minded, supportive community.
Please note: The CraftNook is on Dreamworld's second floor, accessible by a flight of stairs. If stair access presents a challenge, let us know—we’d love to dream up alternative ways for you to join in the creativity!
