FAQ for Recycled Art Journal Drawing Projects
1. What is a Recycled Art Journal?
After spending years looking for an easy and inexpensive journal

system for my elementary students, I discovered that half sheets of
drawing paper, punched with two holes on one end, held together by
book rings, made a journal that was very inexpensive and expandable.
It was named for the use of old cardboard for covers.
Here are a few of the reasons why this system worked so well for me:
It saves money. Each journal requires only two book rings per student,
art paper cut in half, a paper cutter, and a two-hole punch. The covers
are free if you recycle by having students bring in old cereal boxes, toy
boxes, etc.
It saves time. No more sorting of artwork. Each student is responsible

for finding their journal and putting away their own art at the end of
each class.
It cuts down on unfinished student work. The 6“ x 9“ paper is much

easier to finish than the usual 9“ x 12“ size, especially for short classes.
Have early finishers? They can easily flip back and work on incomplete
projects.
It helps art get home safely. Single projects that go home in back-
packs often get folded and beat up in the process. This guarantees
some protection for the art until the end of the year.
Parents love them. They can save all their child’s work in one place.
Watching journals grow instilles a sense of pride. Students start to

appreciate that some things take time, like making a large book of
one’s own art. Sometimes good work takes more that just one class.

2. What do you need to make Recycled
Art Journals?
Cardboard. 6” X 9”. Some options are old cereal

boxes, toy boxes, anything that is clean, large and
,
easy to cut with a paper cutter. Plain cardboard is
good too.
Paper. 6“ X 9”. Easy if you start with 9” x 12” and

then just cut in half.
Paper Cutter. I prefer the old dangerous type with

the arm that comes down, because it works fast and
cuts through even heavy cardboard. The sliding arm
type works too though, especially if you stick to
lighter weight food boxes.
Two-hole Punch. There are many types, all seem to

work well. Mine came from Staples, cost about $15,
and never wore out.
Book Rings. If you just need a few, Staples sells 16 for

$5. If you need bulk, try searching Amazon. I found
boxes of 100 for $10. I recommend the 1.5” size so
your journal has room to grow.
