Arts and crafts have always been a part of my life, especially when I was younger. But somewhere along the way, I drifted away from them and haven’t done much lately. Recently, though, I started noticing scrapbooking videos popping up all over TikTok and it reminded me just how much I enjoyed this creative outlet.
Scrapbooking feels like a wonderful way to preserve memories, but these days it’s also about the process, the soothing rhythm of cutting, sticking, and designing pages with your own personal touch. The best part? You don’t need to be an expert to get started.
You can find scrapbooking kits everywhere now, from Amazon to craft stores. They come with everything you need: beautifully themed papers and stickers... vintage florals, retro styles, bright colors, you name it, plus glue, scissors, and a notepad or album to create your layouts. Of course, you can also cut out pictures and designs from magazines or print your own photos.

I picked up a kit recently, and I have to say, it’s been surprisingly relaxing and even a little therapeutic. It’s a nice way to unwind, focus on something creative, and just have fun without any pressure. Whether you want to document memories, create art, or just pass the time in a mindful way, scrapbooking is a great hobby to try.
If you’re curious, I say give it a shot! Grab a kit or gather some supplies, and just let your imagination take the lead. You might be surprised at what you create and how much you enjoy the process.
Remember, creativity isn’t about perfection, it’s about expression, joy, and the little moments you capture along the way. So take that first step, let your imagination soar, and watch how something beautiful unfolds from simple pieces of paper and your own unique story. Your scrapbook isn’t just a hobby, it’s a celebration of you.
