The Antiquarian Bookshop — Junk Journal Kit · 66 Printable Pages

Step inside a second-hand bookshop on a rainy afternoon.

A green shopfront with a bow window. A long aisle of shelves, a brass bell on the counter, a cat asleep beside the inkwell, parcels waiting on the packing bench and an oxblood wing chair under a brass lamp. The Antiquarian Bookshop is a junk journal kit in bottle green, oxblood red, tobacco brown and old parchment.
