Aaaaand we're back...well, almost!!!

Don't miss the next Magpie Journal class at the Champaign County Library on Saturday, September 12 from 2- 4 PM.

This month, I've challenged all magpies to bring some items with them to show what they've gathered to put in their journals. We're calling this "Show and Trade". The idea is to bring in some items to trade with others in class, but don't go out and buy things specifically for this! Just use things you have collected or things you have at home. Think: postcards, labels, stickers, interesting paper bits, magazine cutouts, book pages - anything you can attach in your journal!

Everyone who brings in something to trade will get a goodie bag from me! We're also starting our 2nd year of Magpie journaling with a brand new "Prompt Jar" for times when you might get stuck for inspiration!

Remember, seating is limited so you DO need to register for this free class by calling the library, stopping by the service desk or going to this link to sign up: https://champaign-main-oh.whofi.com/calendar/event/268437?method=embed

This class is intended for teens and adults. Hope to see you there!

This video is about junk journals but it ABSOLUTELY applies to Magpies, too! Everyone that knows me has learned not to throw away cool bits of paper and "stuff" because "I need that for my Magpie!" 😂
