i have mentioned my love of scrapbooking many times, but my mind was completely blown when i stumbled upon cecil beaton's the art of the scrapbook(available for purchase in 3 days!). at a mere(*cough,cough*) $250, this too can be yours. i could pore over this book for hours, especially seeing all the teasers online. this has definitely inspired me to put down the laptop and pick up some scissors and glue. let me break it down why i think scrapbooks rule...

tactile+graphic+unedited+nostalgic+romantic= a recipe for two big thumbs up.
