Hey, everyone! Savera Kiani of Trinketz, one of our amazing Junk Journal Design Team Members, created a fabulous Elegant Chinoiserie Junk Journal for us this week. As you know, we feature one new Junk Journal project each week created by one of our creative team of artists, but this week we are bringing two to you! Our Design Team Members select from the 100’s of Vintage Image Bundles on our Premium Membership Site, for their creations, in order to show you beautiful ways to use those images. We hope you will be totally inspired by this series!
Therefore, please make sure you check out the video tour at the bottom of the page…please scroll all the way down to see it. Are you ready to be inspired? I will step out of the way and let Savera tell you all about her incredible project…
Hi! Im Savera from Pakistan. Today I’m sharing my Design team Project for The Graphics Fairy Premium website. I made a junk journal inspired by the timeless elegance of Chinoiserie prints and the charm of yellow flowers and birds.
The project blends vintage allure with contemporary crafting techniques, creating a keepsake that is as practical as it is beautiful.
The inspiration for this junk journal project comes from the classic beauty of Chinoiserie prints. These intricate, exotic designs evoke a sense of nostalgia and timeless elegance. Paired with the cheerful simplicity of posy flowers, the journal captures a blend of sophistication and rustic charm. The primary colors for this project are a soothing blue and a warm, sunny yellow, balanced perfectly to create a harmonious visual appeal.
Papers: The pages of our journal are crafted from yellow tea-dyed papers. This process gives the paper a warm, aged appearance, enhancing the vintage feel.
Cover: The cover is made from a vintage envelope, providing an authentic touch of history. The texture and wear of the envelope add character and uniqueness to the
journal.
Decorative Elements: The interior pages are adorned with the beautiful printable from the premium website, exquisite laces and appliqués.
This Chinoiserie-inspired junk journal project is a wonderful example of how historical aesthetics can be revitalized through modern crafting. By blending the timeless elegance of Chinoiserie designs with the rustic charm of tea-dyed papers and vintage laces and cards a unique, visually appealing, and highly functional piece of art has been created.

I would love to see what the pieces and parts look like before they are all put together. I love what you have done, but it’s hard for me to visualize how you have transformed and/or used the parts to make the whole. I’ve never made a junk journal, but I’m getting up the nerve to try!
