HOW TO GET STARTED ON SCRAPBOOKING

Papers need to be acid-free and lignin-free if you want your scrapbook to be safe.

Pens need to be acid-free and permanent for your albums so that all of that hard work you have done journalling does not face away.

Adhesives need to be acid-free, Xylene-free and long lasting so that you are not re-doing your scrapbooks in a year or two. (Avoid rubber Cement and glue Sticks because they are not long lasting.)

Stickers should be acid-free and lignin-free.

Photos storage boxes should be archival quality since they are for long term storage
