📓 SU Makes: Journals
Join us for a creative, sustainable craft session where we’ll be upcycling old hardback books into personalised journals. Turn a forgotten book into something completely new — a sketchbook, diary, scrapbook, planner, or whatever you want it to be.
We’ll provide all the materials you could possibly need, plus optional creative prompts to help you get started. Inside your journal, the possibilities are endless: write, collage, doodle, plan, reflect, or experiment.
This event will run monthly, so you can keep coming back throughout the year to continue building, decorating, and adding to your journal at your own pace.
A calm, cosy space to create — and a journal that grows with you. ✨
📍 Where: SU Lounge
🎨 All materials provided
Venue Capacity : 30
