FROM SCRAPS TO STORY

I’m turning a forgotten antique leather checkbook holder into a layered vintage journal using decoupage paper scraps, old handwritten notes, packaging leftovers, banking ephemera, and all sorts of creative bits most people would throw away. This project is all about turning scraps into treasure and creating something that feels collected, storied, and beautifully worn over time. We’ll be layering papers, adding old-world details, digging through scraps together, and deciding live what stays, what gets covered, and what pieces tell the best story. Help me bring this forgotten little piece of history back to life.
