Scrapbooking memories

There was a nice little piece on scrapbooking that I enjoyed. The girl in it talks about retrieving clippings she lost that her boyfriend was saving up. It’s interesting because (spoiler alert!) HE was the one who was into scrapbooking at the time. I remember I got into scrapbooking because my friends in junior high were into it, and one had incredibly elaborate books that she decorated beautifully with watercolors and scraps of metal and wire. Most of my friends were content with yarn and sequins, but she turned it into a real art. No surprise that she became a successful graphic designer one day, and she certainly inspired me to try to elevate my own books of memories into beautiful things.
