Life :: DIY – Scrapbooking

How do you display pictures? Do you even do it any more with the age of digital?

I’m definitely a contradiction. As much I have both feet firmly in the digital age, connected to pretty much every type of technology and social network you can probably think of, I have half of my mind in the past. I am extremely old school when it comes to certain things – writing, photos, and appointments.

Something that I want to bring back into my life is scrapbooking. I used to be so on top of my scrapbooking game, although I never went all out, I was at least good at getting them into my binders and labeling them all.

But somewhere along the line, [probably with the introduction of the Internet], I fell off the bandwagon. [If I want to look into it closely, I can probably note that all of my “falling off the bandwagon” is due to the Internet… food for some thought]. I’m the type of person that when I get so far behind, I almost justify it by saying that it’ll take to long to catch up, so why bother? Except… It’s something that I really enjoy doing! What a shame.

So, this winter, I’m taking it upon myself to jump back onto this bandwagon. I have so much to organize and post pictures about, I want to make it something special to look back on. Hard copies of something sometimes is so much better than just having a digital copy. On a slightly different note, I’m going to have to figure out something better than the system I’m using right now, especially since I can’t find the adorable binders I’m using anymore!

Is this something that you currently do? Used to do? Want to do? Let me know, and we can keep each other motivated! I’d love to start a series about my scrapbooking as well, so keep your eyes open!
