Shabby Chic Junk Journal Folio Tutorial (Paper Lunch Bags)

Soft florals, lace, pearls, and paper lunch bags… who knew they could become something this dreamy? 💕

Today I’m sharing my new shabby chic ephemera folio made with the Whispers Junk Journal Kit from Decor8yourlife. It’s designed to hold tags, pockets, and vintage-style layers now, but it can easily be turned into a full junk journal later.

I used removable silicone dots for the small elements and a lace pocket for storing ephemera, so everything can be rearranged as inspiration strikes.

Full tutorial is up on YouTube and the matching blog post is live on decor8yourlife.com ✨

Whispers Journal Kit by Decor8yourlife: Soft, Vintage Inspiration for Creative Journals

✨ NEW • Whispers Journal Kit ✨

There’s something about soft colors, worn edges, and quiet details that makes you slow down without realizing it 🤍

Whispers is our very first digital junk journal kit, created for those moments when you want to sit with your thoughts, layer a page gently, and let the process be the point.

This collection grew out of our Whispers scrapbook paper pack and was reimagined specifically for journal makers who love romantic pages, subtle texture, and pieces that work beautifully together without feeling busy.

It’s the kind of kit you reach for when you want your journal to feel calm, personal, and a little bit nostalgic 🌿

If you’re curious about how this kit came to be and the different ways people are using it in their journals, I shared more thoughts and ideas recently ✨
(you’ll know where to find it 😉)
