Turn Packaging into Beautiful Faux Wallpaper for Your Junk Journal!

Hello Friends, Before you toss that packaging, watch this! #scraptember2025 may be over, but the creativity continues! I’m back in my Packaging Journal — a junk journal made entirely from rescued materials like brown paper, honeycomb wrap, deli sheets, and anything else too good to throw away. This journal has become my creative playground, and I’ll be adding lots more inspiring projects over the next few months. Today, I’m upcycling packaging to create the most gorgeous faux wallpaper! Using packaging paper, pretty serviettes (napkins), a little stamping and a touch of Mod Podge, I turn everyday scraps into richly textured, patterned papers that look just like vintage wallpaper. They can be used in so many ways — and they look amazing in my latest page clusters! Some viewers asked how I made them, so in this video I’m sharing a step-by-step tutorial with all my tips, tricks, what worked (and what didn’t!), plus some ideas for using your new faux wallpaper in your junk journal projects. It’s fun, creative, and a little bit addictive once you start!
