Scrapbooking to Save Summer Memories

By Lise Gagnon

We all have a place where we keep that stash of photographs, playbills, graduation notices, blue ribbons – pieces of our family’s lives that we’ve saved because they’re special to us. Yet despite their importance, we box and stack our photographs and mementos in ways that are not only unfit for display, but are also actually destructive to them.

Are yours in boxes in the attic or the garage? Possibly in bags under the bed or in your closet? The bottom drawer of your dresser? As an amateur photographer, my stash is in a fairly impressive collection of boxes in my closet. Even with the best of intentions, the idea of organizing all of those photographs into respectable albums can be overwhelming.


Last year, however, my kids and I began to actually enjoy tackling those boxes together.  What changed? I went to a scrapbooking party, and it was just the inspiration I needed to get started.
