The idea of keeping pictures in a scrapbook is not new. Unfortunately, acidic and wood byproducts in paper can damage photos. In recent years new technology in acid-free and lignin-free paper has revolutionized this method of preserving photographs and has made “scrap booking” even more popular as a hobby. Today’s scrap books are creative, colorful, decorated with everything imaginable, and really tell a story…your story. It is a fantastic way to preserve and showcase precious memories that may otherwise fade in the dusty boxes of photos under the mattress.
While scrapbooking is becoming a popular hobby, it can also cause frustration when supplies aren’t available. Local craft stores who don’t specialize in the field may only carry limited inventory. Additionally, clerks in local craft stores may not have enough knowledge and experience to answer your questions or show you the different scrap book techniques.
