Monique Leslie — Misfit Crafter
Creative educator, designer, and Co-founder of the Art & Junk Journal Retreat.

To Monique Leslie, crafting isn’t just a hobby—it’s a way of being. Known as the Misfit Crafter, she serves as an Artistic Mentor and Crafting Instructor for those who find beauty in the unconventional.
While Monique’s personal journals are a playground for mixed media exploration, she finds her greatest fulfillment in creating journals for others to cherish.

For Monique, the true alchemy is in the "share"—giving others a beautiful, handmade space to begin their own journey. When she isn’t at her studio table, she’s building a vibrant, inclusive community at the Misfit Crafter Studio (MisfitCrafterStudio.com), a digital hub dedicated to helping every creative "misfit" live their best crafty life.
