Vintage Beach Mini-Album



I finally finished it!! This is a little beach mini I made for my sister-in-law. I'm thinking I have to make an exact replica for myself because I really don't want to part with this. Every year we have a family reunion at the beach and I'm going to surprise her this year with this mini full of pics from last year's get together. So excited to give this to her! Before anyone asks, yes, she totally appreciates the work that goes into something like this even though she doesn't paper-craft. She's probably one of my biggest fans:)

Sorry about the video quality! I'm still a newb at this youtube thing and I'm trying to figure out why my camera is out of focus/low res. Hopefully in future vids I'll get it worked out. I'll post some still shots of the album shortly, just couldn't wait to get the video on here now!

Thanks for visiting and checking out my mini!
Have a beautiful day!!

  6. Thanks so much you guys!! Yvonne, I bound it with hemp cord. I used 2 long pieces, one for the top 4 holes and one for the bottom 4 and laced it through, tied knots at the ends.
