Dot Grid Journaling
Dot Grid Journals are used to organize and manage one’s life. These types of journals are often filled with weekly schedules, calendars, goals, to do lists, birthday and anniversary reminders, expenses or money-saving trackers, and health and wellness trackers, just to name a few.
Junk Journaling
Another popular type of journaling is the junk journal (aka altered book). When an item isn’t worth keeping—but it’s nice enough not to throw away —it often ends up in the junk drawer. The same is true for a junk journal. Items found in the junk drawer almost always make perfect additions to a junk journal.
Mixed Media Journaling
Mixed-Media journaling is when an artist combines several media (aka supplies) to design a page or layout. This kind of journaling is commonly worked in layers, textures, and colors, but, most importantly, there are no limitations or rules in this type of creative process.
Travel Journals
Travel Journals are a fun way to document a trip. Whether it’s a road trip, a tour outside of the country, or a visit to another state, memories are happening. Trying local foods, seeing wildlife, or visiting famous landmarks are just some of the details that are always worth reliving, and a travel journal is a perfect way to remember such events ten, twenty, or even thirty years from now.
