Updated My Library of Memories Albums


These are my original Library of Memories albums that I copied exactly from Stacy Julian. Now that I have been doing this method for two years now, I have found the need to add another category to my library, Holidays and Traditions. This category was originally located in the Things We Do album. I found that this album became full at a faster rate than the others; so this is my remedy. Also, the American Crafts albums are more of a binder with the raw chipboard covers that I never got around to customizing. I originally went with these because that's what SJ uses, but also because they were available in my colors. Although much more expensive, the We R Memory Keepers leather albums which I've been drooling over all this time finally came out with albums in my colors. I like the nice leather, bookplate and metal protective corners. So I took the plunge and am very happy with these new albums. You can also find the albums here.

Now what to do with my old albums???? I'll probably see if any of my friends want them and the gazillion American Craft page protectors I have. My friends and I often sell our leftover scrapbook supplies to each other for garage sale prices.

  1. I love the idea of making an album just of Holidays & Traditions! I only have We R Memory Keepers Leather albums and they offer all the colors that I like.

    Thanks for sharing all these great ideas.

  2. Saw your comment on Stacy's blog, so I came on over to visit. I am a 2009 LOM alum and loving the system. I think your library addition is very fitting and I have noticed the same thing about my THINGS album. To me, it is kinda along the lines of the "School of Life" and "My Favorite Photos" additional albums. Glad to see you're making it work for you! I have saved your blog to my faves list, so I'll be checking in on you.

  3. Angie,
    So fun to find your blog and see your LOM albums! You should post our "old" albums for sale in the LOM Community -- I bet someone would buy them from you-- maybe even me!

  6. Hey,

    I have a question. Does the American Crafts page protectors not fit in the We R Memory Keepers albums?
