Junk journals are amazingly addictive and fun to make – they are also a great way to stretch and explore your creativity. One of my favorite things about making junk journals is using up all those little pieces of paper, embellishments and vintage whatnots that are small but too cute to throw away.
If you don’t have enough junk on hand – or have explored junk journaling so thoroughly that you need more supplies, printables can fill the gap. Junk journal printables come in coordinated sets (like our Victorian Spring Set shown below), or in packs of specific items like tags, tickets or embellishments.
Using Junk Journal Printables
Junk journal printables are super easy to print and use. Once you find the pieces you want, you can print them out and use them again and again. While I have plenty of options in my digital paper store, I wanted to share some free junk journal printables with you today, so you can discover this fascinating and fun medium without having to invest any money.
How to Print Junk Journal Digital Files
Junk journal printables work on any home printer that is capable of printing photographs; if yours can produce pictures that look as they should, it will work for the junk journal downloads below as well (and any others you find.
FREE JUNK JOURNAL PRINTABLES
The free vintage junk journal printables I’m sharing today are available from a variety of shops and designers around the Internet and are free as of April 2021. Although all of these are free to download, be sure to read the copyright on each of the download pages so you know what you can and can’t do with them. I selected free printables that featured embellishments like cards and tags, to provide you with a wide range of options.

Free Bobbin Cards Printable
I love bobbin cards -- the old fashioned paper cards that were used to store small trims, flosses and threads safely and without tangling. These are small enough to include on any journal page but large enough to add text, images or even wrap with fibers or textiles.

Something about miniature books is just so endearing -- and if you like them as much as I do you'll love these mini journal pages from Astrid's Artistic Efforts!

Journal cards are perfect for adding a bit of story or text without overwhelming a page. If you like to layer pieces, then using a journal card ensures that the story stays on top and legible. Add it to your base layer and it may end up covered up by your other additions.
