Inside the Sticker Club: We love Zines (aka Stationery Trinkets)
There’s something magical about tiny books - especially when you fill them with little thoughts, lists, and scraps from your life right now.
Our March Stationery Box includes a Zine Kit that makes it incredibly easy to create your own mini zine. We paired it with other goodies from the box - the Junk Journal Pad, Memo Pad, Notepad, and Washi Tape - to make a sweet little Spring Bucket List + Memory Zine.

Supplies
Almost everything we used came straight from the March Stationery Box:
-
Zine Kit (includes templates, stickers, patterned paper, and stencils)
-
Scissors or glue
Step 1: Choose Your Zine Template
Start by picking the zine template you want to use from the kit.
Each one is pre-cut and scored, so all the tricky parts are already done for you. Just follow the folding instructions included in the Zine Kit to assemble your mini book.
A few folds later and — voilà — you’ve got the perfect blank canvas for your zine.
Step 2: Start Decorating
Now comes the fun part.
Using the stickers, patterned paper, and stencils included in the Zine Kit, start filling in your pages. We also pulled in extra pieces from the Junk Journal Pad, plus little notes from the Memo Pad and Notepad to layer throughout the zine.
Add torn paper edges, collage bits, stickers, doodles, and washi tape — the scrappier the better.
Step 3: Create Your Pages
For our zine, we made a little Spring Bucket List + Memory Collection. Each page captures a small snapshot of what we’re excited about or noticing this season.
Here’s how we filled ours:
Page 1: Spring Bucket List
A list of little things we want to do this season — think picnic days, park walks, journaling outside, and collecting tiny memories along the way.
Page 2: What We’ve Been Listening To
Songs, playlists, or albums that have been on repeat lately. Perfect for capturing the soundtrack of the moment.
Page 3: Things We’ve Noticed Recently
Small details from everyday life - blooming flowers, longer evenings, a really good cup of coffee. The kind of things you don’t want to forget.
Back Page: A Scrappy Collage
We finished it off with a layered collage using notepad paper and stickers for a cute, textured back page.
Step 4: Fill It Over Time
The best part about making a zine like this? You can keep adding to it.
Tuck in little scraps from the Junk Journal Pad, jot quick notes on the Memo Pad, or add new stickers whenever inspiration strikes. By the end of spring, you’ll have a tiny book full of seasonal memories.
Small book. Big spring energy. 🌷
