Memorable memories with Scrapbooking
Scrapbooking is a method for preserving a legacy of written history in the form of photographs, printed media, and memorabilia contained in decorated albums, or scrapbooks. The idea of keeping printed materials of personal interest probably dates to shortly after the invention of printing. Similarly for photographs. Historically, scrapbooking was a tradition similar to storytelling, but with a visual and tactile, rather than oral, focus. Everyone has someone in their family that never, ever seems to go anywhere without their beloved camera to catch a picture anytime they see fit because they want to remember the occasion. Pictures speak a thousand words and capture a moment forever. However, what do we do with all the pictures that we have and hold onto so dearly to? We forget them in a dark corner of the room, stuffed in a box that is probably accumulating dust.
