Remember my DIY Corkboard Map from a couple weeks ago? Along with the map, I also gave Tanner a DIY travel journal so we could document each trip we took together. Anyone that knows me knows that I can’t remember where I last placed my phone, much less everywhere we have traveled and their respective dates. I decided I better remedy that quickly, because even though Tanner’s memory may be a little better than mine, I doubt we will either remember what month or even year “that summer we went to Boston” was for goodness sakes!

What you’ll need to make a DIY travel Journal:

• Blank Journal (I got mine on clearance at Anthropologie for $4.99, but cute journals are everywhere!) 
• Alphabet Stamps
• Stamp Pad
• Pen

 What you’ll do:

• Stamp the cover of your journal however you choose. I just used the word “travels” Keepin’ it simple!
• My journal had a cover page that I stamped as well with “Let’s go everywhere!”

• I then stamped “Place and Date” and then hand wrote each place we have traveled. 

We have really enjoyed being able to look back at our journal and see where each year has taken us. It definitely has been helpful keeping track of everywhere we have been. I’m sure it will be so much fun to look back when the pages are full. Hopefully this will inspire you to make your own journal! Or at the very least just write your travels down somewhere!
