3 Tips to Prep for Your Scrapbook Album and Eliminate Overwhelm

3 Tips to Prep for a Vacation Scrapbook Album

Hello, Friends!

I just started my family’s vacation scrapbook from a couple of years ago, and as I was organizing my photos I thought of many tips I could share with you.

So in this first video, I’m sharing my 3 favorite tips to prep for success for your album.

These tips can pertain to any event, not just a vacation. Think wedding album or baby album or graduation or family member/pet memorial…anything that you have a collection of lots of photos you want in an album together.

I decided to use an 8.5″ x 11″ size for my album, but you can use 12×12 (my favorite and what I do for most of my family albums!), 6×8, 8×8, 9×12, or anything else. I let the number of photos I have be the biggest deciding factor in which size album I use. But I also think about where I want to store it, how easy I want it to be for my kids to grab, etc. I talk about this more in the video below 🙂
