If you do more of these swaps, how would we combine the different registers into one journal. I'd love a journal with different registers from different people.

hi @Samjowers ! What a great question! For me -- I create my own covers from old hardcover books and I also love making my own traveler's notebooks, They are simple, you can size them to any size at all and make your own covers, which is so fun!

Are these considered "Todays junk journals" or the Original-Old school junk journals?
