Wreck This Journal: Color Edition

Before I say anything, this is NOT for someone who likes to keep books new and clean, because I promise you, you will get messy. My parents didn’t quite like the idea of ruining something like a book, but you have to get past the point of trying to keep it neat.
Anyway, this has been so fun to do. I have had to restrain myself from doing all of the pages. Some are definitely gross, like chewing or licking the pages, or others have to do with coloring or painting entire pages. Also, dealing with a lot of anxiety, this has been a really good way to let some feelings out, especially with the pages that involve writing things down about your feelings.
Now, this is only if you need it, but here are all of the prompts. I know it’s long, but it just gives you an idea of what you’re getting yourself into 🙂

(add your own page numbers) (crack the spine) (color this page RED on purpose) (pour, spill, drip, spit, fling different colored drinks here) (poke holes in this page using a pencil) (draw lines fat and thin) (this page is for handprints or fingerprints) (color this entire page) (throw something at this page) (press leaves and other found things) (do some rubbings with a pencil) (scribble wildly) (tear strips of color) (glue or tape these page together) (fill this page with circles of any color) (document your dinner) (chew on this) (mix colors until they turn to mud) (tear out this page and crumple it) (fold this into an airplane) (wrap a gift with this page) (eat colorful candy and then lick this page) (write your thoughts here) (tie a string to the spine and swing it around) (pick this journal up without your hands) (climb up high and drop the journal) (compost this page) (do a really bad drawing) (put sticky things here) (make a paper chain) (cover this page with only office supplies) (rub this page in the dirt) (use this page as a test page for your colors) (drip something here) (sew through this page) (glue a piece of newspaper here) (cut up tiny bits and glue them here) (trace things in your pockets here) (collect colors you like here) (scribble only using pens you borrow) (page for good thoughts) (make prints of anything) (ask a friend to do something with this page; don’t peek) (let the colors run) (glue random things here) (tear this page out; take it with you everywhere) (infuse this page with a scent) (color outside these lines) (close your eyes and connect the dots from memory) (collect your pocket lint) (roll a die to find out what color this page will be) (make drips of something) (document items in your home here) (draw with scissors) (find a way to freeze this page) (draw with crayon and paint over) (draw lines using abnormal items) (punch this page with paint on your fist) (create a color explosion) (find a way to wear the journal) (create a nonstop line) (space for negative comments) (a page for 4 letter words) (write on this page with a pen in your mouth) (cut strips and weave. put back in here) (document time passing) (work with only colors you hate) (hide a secret message in the book) (try sleeping with the book and tell us how it was) (close the journal and write something on the sides) (stain log) (attatch these pages together somehow) (splatter) (collect dead bugs here; just do it) (float this page) (hide this page in your neighbors yard) (roll the journal down a large hill) (turn the book into a shoe) (slide the journal down a hallway) (smush something colorful on the page) (cover this page in tape) (fold this page how you want) (add a new color to this page every day for a month) (cut slits all over the page) (fill in these shapes with color)

Initially bought this as a gift but they loved it so much I ended up buying another for a family member and then another for myself! They are not only fun but I found it to be such an amazing way to “break the mould” where the whole purpose is to destroy something brand new. It’s so therapeutic but in a really controlled way. Some of the pages are more specific than others but really you can do whatever you like with it, and if you and other people did it at the same time, they would still all end up SO different. Amazing creative outlet but in a small space. Just such good fun!

Es el primer diario que veo que se puede hacer como si hicieras un cuento y literalmente lo tienes que destruir o maltratar de verdad lo recomiendo mucho

This was a delightful Christmas gift for my sister-in-law, and she absolutely adored it. It’s such a simple yet uniquely charming present to give someone, regardless of their age! She had a blast experimenting with all the pages and following the instructions for each one. The activities are incredibly fun, with some being hilariously questionable.

It’s not just for kids either; it’s a great gag gift for adults too! Whether as a cute stocking stuffer or part of a gift box, it adds a playful touch to any occasion.

We purchased this journal for our daughter, and she has loved using it. Each page of this journal gives you something to do, whether it’s coloring the entire page Red or ripping the papers out. I think it shows how creative a journal can be by simply doing things a little differently.

The prompts are great and really help with letting my anger out and stress. It’s also good for a past time.
