A scrapbook is more than
just reams of pages that contain a collection of hastily-put-together
“memories”. Those who value these memories so much put a great
deal of work into their scrapbooks, essentially turning them into
works of art. Of course, different people have different styles,
designs, and ideas that they want for their scrapbooks, but all of
them require the same basic tools and supplies to make them a
reality.
Adhesives are a necessity
when making a scrapbook, although the right kind of adhesive to use
largely depends on the paper quality of the album and what decorative
pieces are to be added. For example, acid-free adhesives (like glue,
sticker makers, and some kinds of adhesive tape) are best suited for
photos. The same can be said for writing tools, since acid-free,
permanent pens won't leave behind noticeable damage on the
scrapbook's pages.
Yes, it is the
scrapbook's sentimental value that holds its appeal, but much of its
sentimental value comes from the photos and the decorations contained
in its pages, as well as the time and work a creator has put into his
or her project. The right materials are therefore needed to make the
scrapbook truly special.
