Inspiration abounds in this easy-to-follow guide to collage-making.

Requiring minimal equipment--just scissors, glue, paper, and pens--collage is an accessible craft that offers limitless creative possibilities. Like meditation or journaling, making a collage can be an avenue for self-reflection and artistic exploration.

In Collage Your Life, artist and teacher Melanie Mowinski teaches a variety of core techniques including lettering, stamping, stenciling, transfers, and adhesive methods, and provides dozens of prompts to jumpstart the creative process and encourage crafters to explore the versatility of collage with prompts such as:

  • Make a self-portrait
  • Disrupt your routine instincts
  • Incorporate text
  • Assemble mementos from a trip
  • Process anger or anxiety
  • Creating block-out poetry with pages from a magazine
Inspiring examples of the author's work along with that of other collage artists are featured throughout. Crafters, journaling fans, scrapbookers, and artists alike will find guidance and support for developing their own distinctive collage style, whether the goal is to create a visual record of daily experiences and special occasions or to expand a creative journaling practice.
