Printable Zines Made By Me For You!

NOTE: A lot of creators think it’s super important to make zines by hand, and that each one should be a unique creation. I go back and forth between creating 100% handmade zines and using Canva graphics so I can focus more on the text I’ll add instead of the structure and graphics. I also love a neat and clean page with pretty fonts!

It’s up to you and the zine mood you’re in at the moment. Feel free to use my zines, or check them out for inspiration, and then follow your own creative path. I think there’s room for us all when we have fun making tiny books and filling them with fabulous words. No two voices are alike so no matter how you approach making zines, yours will be differen than anyone elses in the universe. Enjoy!
