junk journaling & joy jars workshop
come create a summer joy jar & junk journal with us
Celebrate the start of summer by creating a JOY JAR!!!! Decorate your own personal treasure trove and fill it up with affirmations, tiny treats, and joyful summer intentions to lift your spirit and encourage you to play all summer long :)
During this workshop, we’ll take time to reflect and dream — brainstorming our summer vibes, bucket list adventures, and intentions. then, we’ll decorate a jar with buttons, trinkets, stickers, and anything else your heart desires. once it’s beautifully adorned, you’ll tuck your reflections inside — ready to be pulled out whenever you need a spark of joy or inspiration.
We will also channel our joyful, summer vibes into happy, intentional junk journal spreads :)
We can’t wait to create alongside you 💌✨ No experience necessary!! Bring your journal and let's get crafty!!!
