Step into one of our most-loved creative sessions — the Hidden Paperclip Workshop, inspired by our most popular YouTube tutorial! This project has captured the hearts (and journals) of crafters everywhere for a simple reason: it’s one of the easiest and most satisfying ways to make beautiful hidden paperclips.

If you’re new to the idea, hidden paperclips are a clever little invention for junk journalers. They look like pretty embellishments—tags, clusters, or decorative cards—but secretly contain a sturdy paperclip tucked inside. That means you can slip them onto a journal page to hold photos, notes, and ephemera, or move them around as removable decorations. They’re functional, charming, and endlessly customizable!

In this workshop, we’ll show you exactly how to turn ordinary paperclips into delightful hidden treasures using scraps, trims, and a bit of creative mischief. You’ll leave with a ready-to-use embellishment and the know-how to make them again and again.

Whether you’re brand new to junk journaling or a seasoned maker looking for a relaxing project, this class is pure creative joy—small, simple, and wonderfully addictive.
