Expert Answer

The scrapbooking sections of arts and crafts stores have tons of decorations you can use to make your own photo album book. For instance, if you don't like the plastic inserts in typical photo albums, try buying little corner pieces for your photos. You can glue these into a scrapbook, then your photos will hang there by their corners in a cute way.

Question

How long does it take to make a DIY photo album?

Community Answer

It depends upon how long you want to devote to your project, but usually it takes about 40 to 45 minutes. Most sites allow you to use a drag-and-drop method which can speed up the process significantly, but if you're pickier about the final result, it may take longer.

Question

I want to make seeds album, but when l stick the seeds to the paper, it becomes folded and sometimes the seeds do not stick properly. What should I do?

Community Answer

You should try using small pieces of transparent. tape to stick your seeds to your paper. This will make it much neater and easier to manage than glue. It will also last a lot longer.

Would yarn work as a ribbon substitute?

Community Answer

Of course! Choose any colour you wish and use it! Anything that works! You could even add an old shoelace and dip it in glitter and glue.
