This is one of those things not many people know about me. In fact I'm not sure anyone except my husband and children know this.
My little secret?
I've kept scrap books...for going on 12 years now.
Actually it's two and getting ready to head into #3. I fill it with beach and ocean images, stickers, craft projects & things that remind me of my favorite place on earth. I use it to remind me that I can build house there in a few years.
It is not a fancy book with plastic page protectors or themes for each page. In fact I avoid pictures of any people because this is MY book. Not someone elses. There are no photographs of family with little frames. I just find images I like and stick them on the pages where ever they will fit.
Someday I might let you see them if you promise not to tease me. I never even showed them to my therapist though I did take them to his office once. Don't know why, I just couldn't make myself pull them out of the bag.
ANYWAY.....
I want to find more scrapbooks like these. You know the old kind that were big, before scrap booking became so complicated, that have heavy card board covers with plain construction paper for pages? The kind you just glued things in. Newspaper articles, cutouts etc. These three I found, well, 12 years ago in K-Mart. They don't carry them any more.
Does anyone know where I could buy ones like this? I'd really like ones with bright blue covers.
