Junk Journaling Is Really Hot Abroad! Here's Where You Can Pick Up Your Supplies In Mumbai

Junk Journaling is the new dalgona coffee right now. The only difference is, you don't have to indulge in a 30-minute cardio just to whip one up. It's a different kind of therapy though; unwinds your mind instead of undoing your wrist. If you spend your time scrolling through Instagram, you are no stranger to reels of aesthetic journal spreads in the making. Sadly though, most of them are from abroad because of the limited supply chains for journal ephemera in India. Some Mumbai e-stores, however, are bringing the good stuff to India. Here's a list of top junk journal stores because we love them!

1. The Bodhi Journal

We know Shakespeare was a big deal but we do still think that there is something in the name. We mean, isn't 'The Bodhi Journal' aesthetically pleasing to the ears? Although, that's not all that is aesthetic about them. They sell some of the best ephemera kits and rubber stamps in Mumbai at affordable prices. Our favourites include their Dragonfly Stamps and Cosmic Kit. Oh! Also, they sell thrifted books on their other page called The Bodhi Life (in love with their names, seriously!)

2. Caffeinated Neuron

journal

If you are a seasoned journaler (yes, that's a word), you have undoubtedly caught yourself stalking international pages and pining over their products holding back only because of the dollar sign preceding their delivery charges. No more though. The Caffeinated Neuron has brought to Mumbai all that is a hit worldwide. Seriously, they have everything that you and we pined for. A special mention to their little vellum booklets. Hurry because they sell like hotcakes on a cold day.

3. BRWN C.O.

We think that collectively as a society we can agree that vintage is back and it's here to stay for good. So here's a one-stop shop for everything vintage for your journaling spreads. We are unapologetically biased towards their washi tape collections and once you check out their website, you'll know why. Go get them now!

4. White Ink Papeterie

journal

If unlike others (but not us), pastels weren't just a 2018 phase for you, this website should be your go-to. They have the cutest sticker booklets one can ask for. Need we mention they are, you guessed it, pastel! Anyone who journals knows that stickers or the lack of them can make or break the spread. So don't skimp, treat your inventory with some sticker booklets at minimal charges. Oh, and the founder happens to be a vet so you can expect some real cute animal themes in their line-up!

Bonus: Aesthete Kulture

journal

Now we know that we are all about what is hot specifically in Mumbai but we just couldn't help ourselves with this one. Although based in Chennai, the Aesthete Kulture delivers worldwide. They don't have a website yet but boy oh boy, they have the best handcrafted stickers, polaroids, bookmarks and papers that we have ever come across as journal addicts! This also happens to be the most affordable online store on the list, so get stalking!

Shop here.

 

So, ready, set, go junk journal, folks!
