What are the best products (shelving, et al) to buy to build your own scrapbooking station at home?
I’m not looking for totes or anything for portable scrapbooking. I want to build a scrapbooking work center in my home office. What are the best products (shelving, cubes, etc) to use? And where can I find them? Thank you for your help!
Brand new in my Micheal’s store this month are Making Memories cubes, drawers (2) and turntable table top organizers. The cubes and drawers fit together and stack together. All are white and are made of MDF. Prices are good but the cubes only have 2 or 3 compartments. They also have a huge, lovely, white wall shelf. It’s a bout 4 inches deep and holds jars and stuff with 2 paper towel like holders for ribbon spools to spin freely on. Looks really nice. That’s what I would do but depending on how your paper is organized, you may need lots of cubes to separate colours etc. Good luck!
What are some good ideas for my Beta Club scrapbook?
I’m competing in scrapbook this upcoming weekend. The theme of our book is "Road Trip". So far we have done the membership pages which have each member on a "License" with maps as backgrounds. I using those green signs with the name of the city in how many miles as the content page, and a billboard as the title page. I need help with what to do on the officer pages, and service and activity pages. The activity pages and service pages are basically pictures and captions, I just need theme ideas. Thanks so much! We really want to win!
Route 66 with its vintage signs, the 50 states, do a convertible with everyone’s picture collages into the seats, a junk food page/spread (you know like Funyuns and truck stop burritos), National monuments or places people take road trips to like the Grand Canyon or from the snow country to the south.
Hope that helps.
What can I make using small pieces of scrap wood and wood shavings. I hate to see them go to waist.?
My boyfriend makes cabinet doors and has alot of scrap wood and wood shavings left over. We are wanting to come up with a way to recycle that wood and make something new. The pieces of wood are not very big at all and there are alot of wood shavings. But I just can’t think of a way to recycle it into something new. What would you do?
How about some back to nature – make bird houses/feeders, butterfly houses, bat houses, squirrel and chipmunk stations, etc. I’m sure you can find great plans on the Internet – but for someone who is talented enough to make cabinet doors – these projects would be a piece of cake – if you want you could paint and decorate them. if you make so many that your yard would look like a nature sanctuary – give them to a nursing home – patients can spend many hours watching the antics of birds etc.
I’m sure if you donate these wonderful projects the nursing home staff would put them up.
Thanks for recycling. And being a friend of nature, besides entertaining the elderly and infirmed.
PS. shavings are good nesting material, also good composting material for garden beds.
Hurricane Hugo Video Scrapbook 1990- WSOC-TV – Charlotte NC- Part 7
Aired in 1990, this is a VHS to DVD copy of “The Hugo Video scrapbook”, compiled by Channel 9 Eyewitness news WSOC-TV. I have had it on a tape for years, complete with commercials. I ran out of tape back in 1990, so I don’t have the whole program. It is cut into 10 min segments, since youtube only accepts 10 min videos. Enjoy!

Where is the best place to start learning about digital scrapbooking?
I’ve done paper scrapping for a long while, but I’m terribly behind. I think digital scrapbooking might just be what I need to get back on track, but I’m overwhelmed with all of the info out there. Help! Where should I start?
First I would start by looking at the software you are going to use. How comfortable are you with using it? If the answer is not so much, I would recommend getting books and such on the software that will teach you how to do various things. If you are using Adobe Photoshop (CS, Elements, etc.), then you can access Adobe’s website for tutorials and tons of information. They also do a podcast if you are interested in that. I have found those useful. Nothing beats getting to see how someone does something step by step!!
If you are using other software, chek out their customer website to see if they offer any how-tos. Many of the various programs have a lot of similarities so even if you don’t have Adobe, you might want to take a gander over there.
Once you feel that you have a decent handle on your software I would go to a limited number of websites. Pick one that you feel give you the best directions on how-tos and have a forum to discuss things. Forums are a great chance to interact and get help when you are stuck! They often will also have archieves so that you can look for answers to questions that you have that may have been asked before. I will list a couple examples below of some websites that I have enjoyed for digital scrapping.
What are good ideas for displaying pictures for a scrapbook?
I’ve seen several ways to display pictures in a scrapbook to save pages–a flip book, folding pages vertically/horizontally and even in one of those paper game fortune tellers kids play with (with numbers or colors). Any other ideas? I’ve been trying to look on sites but I’m not sure what to search under.
http://www.diynetwork.com/diy/shows_scb/0,2044,DIY_14332,00.html has TONS of scrapbooking ideas, plus there’s a tv show that you can watch that does some of the ideas on the website.
Is it illegal to walk next to railroad tracks picking up scrap metal?
Is it illegal to walk next to railroad tracks picking up scrap metal as long as i”m not physically taking the railroad tracks apart? I’m guessing there’s probably a lot of scrap that falls from railcars.
people are more paranoid now than ever and doing something like picking up metal by railroad tracks are gonna raise suspicions.
