I hope you are having a wonderful Thursday. I've totally lost track of time - just very, very busy doing fun stuff. When my husband asked this morning if I did the recycling, I couldn't believe that I missed yesterday's pick-up. Thought it was only Wednesday today! Time flies when you're having fun.
About a year ago my mum and dad moved to a smaller house and had to downsize. One of the things that had to go was a lot of framed pictures as their new possie just doesn't have that much wall space. I took everything out of their frames, copied, cut and paste it all into a 12x12 album. As I didn't want to spend a fortune on and album, I used one from a sale and covered it with beautiful fabric.
I took the whole thing apart and covered the spine and covers in fabric. My good old glue gun did the rest. On the inside of the covers, I used rather neutral scrapbook paper. Mum can always add a pocket or some journaling here in future.
This is what mum's fabric covered album looks like:
Top right picture is my mum when she was 5 (taken 70 years ago!). The album is now proudly displayed on their coffee table and instead of filing the pictures away in boxes, they can be enjoyed 24/7.
That's it from me. I've already lost one day this week and will have to run to get everything done before the weekend. Have a great day and please come back to play. Remember to Play as U Go!
