I am starting a new journal today! I love it a lot. It is my sixth book journal, and due to my this I figured I would share the others. I included some pages from each...
JOURNAL ONE (my first bookjournal) A Merriam-Webster Elementary Dictionary
This is the template (I guess you would say) of a birthday card I made.
My senior picture is down there... along with this awkward one the photographer made me and Ian do... Above that is a series of photostrips Rene and I made for Sofa when she was Chiffon in my high school's production of Little Shop of Horrors.
JOURNAL TWO The Home Medical Book
A dino.
A Spectra Polaroid that Ian took in Denver of an apartment complex.
My label maker put to use up there, a photo of a Sinclair sign down there.
Below is one of the most fantastic Polaroids I have ever taken. It is dark but for the red letters of HILTON.
JOURNAL THREE Gatie the Alligator
A wonderful postcard of old West... reminds me of Janine now.
The only thing written on the telephone page is... and call my mom.
Rodney, my first RA gave Ann and I temporary tattoos in the envelope, complete with a cartoon Rodney, he was fantastic. Below is a thumbnail of one of Maria's paintings, the same woman who painted the deer hanging on my wall and tattooed my bird. I would love love love to get this painting.
JOURNAL FOUR Dinosaurs
Probably my greatest journal.
The bit above there is from a children's book called
The Incredible Book Eating Boy by Oliver Jeffers. Now I don't have this book, but I think I should. The diagram of the left says A)Book goes in B)Information goes to brain [brain getting bigger] C)Belly gets full. His brain is made of a piece of ripped out text. And the background is graph paper.

here for more.
A playlist from a radio show above... and a Polaroid from polanoid.net below.
Addresses and the Beatles.
More polanoid.net and a great old postcard I bought in Ecuador.
Passport and airplane necklace on my desk along with a Complimentary Shoe Service "flier" in Wes Anderson font. Below a umbrella I painted.
JOURNAL FIVE An Elephant is Not a Cat
My brother wrote one page in an old Harry Potter journal that I found. I copied this page and made it the beginning of my journal. It says: Stay out! This is my propprty so stay out or else you are dead meat you'll be sold in a butcher shop and eaten by canables ant that's the end so stay out. Below another painted piece I did with a page from an old photography book.
A lovely piece of artwork I saw at the Aspen Art Museum, underneath I wrote a quote that was painted on the wall of an artist studio I was at for a film shoot. It say: Even in madness and death she was beautiful.
Directions for editing on a Steenbeck and a map of Boston below that.
So there you are, a brief glimpse into my bookjournals. Check out bookjournals.com or
go here... I've also seen them at Urban recently. OF COURSE. The guy who makes them, Jacob, is a sweetheart though. I've talked to him on several occasions... if you have a book that you would like made into a custom bookjournal he will do it for ten dollars, you just have to get the book to him.

Oh my word. These are lovely but....that pic of you and Ian can only merit a 'bahahahahahah'. Oh dear, that's silly.
You have no idea, she was like... lay on his back. It was awkward and weird, but kinda hilarious.
