This strange crafting trend is going viral…and you'll want to get in on the action

Scrapbooking has evolved. Forget about perfectly placed photos on flawless pages. Junk journaling is a more casual and expressive way to preserve your memories. Think movie stubs, concert wristbands, and even the napkin with a funny doodle on it.

Anyone can create a junk journal – yes, even those who don't consider themselves artistic. Accessories include scraps, a journal, pens, tape/glue, and this Kodak instant photo printer (if you want to get extra crafty). Print photos without ink or create DIY stickers for $69.99 (regularly $99.99). Save 30 percent on this gadget while supplies last – we only have 50 left!

How to start your junk journal

Is there a Friendsgiving coming up? Turn the event into your first junk journal spread.

The most important thing is to take pictures of you and your friends. At the gathering, you can show off your pocket photo printer. Use the free Kodak app to add a fun photo border, filter, and stickers and print an adhesive-backed photo in under 60 seconds.

Before you go home, grab every piece of “junk” you can find for your journal: your business card, a napkin, a ribbon, turkey-shaped confetti, etc. The more creative you are, the better.

Arrange everything on your blank journal page the way you want. If you have blank spaces, you can find some Thanksgiving pictures online, print them out and cut them out like DIY stickers.

Great gift for creative people

If you know someone who is interested in photography or Polaroid cameras, this could also be an excellent gift option. It is a bit more modern, easier to use and the replacement film is cheaper. The printers also come in fun colors.

Grab one of these Kodak Step photo printers for $69.99 (regularly $99.99) before they sell out and save 30 percent.
