Do you want to have the most wonderful time of the year all year around? While you can't fight the calendar, you can preserve your Christmas memories in a photo book. Even a scrapbooking novice can create a cute book.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderate
Step1
Gather your photos. In the age of digital cameras, you can select the prints you want to use before your photos are even printed.
Step2
Head to your local scrapbooking store. These are great places to start because here you can find the book you're going to use, including Christmas-themed paper and cool accessories for your pages. Many discount stores have an aisle in the craft section dedicated to scrapbooking supplies.
Step3
Invest in the basic tools. If this is your first photo book, you will need scissors and an adhesive, such as glue or double-sided tape. You also will need a ruler to measure your photos and to use as a straight edge.
Step4
Get creative. You can use different kinds of paper for the background of your photo book pages, and solid colors to create frames. Look for accessory packs at the store. They're a quick and easy way to brighten up any photo book.

Tips & Warnings

  • Look at work other people have done for ideas. Some websites feature fully-designed pages. You also can share with your friends or get ideas at a scrapbooking store.
  • Join a group. Check around your community for one. You can pay a nominal fee to get access to many cool tools.
  • For a quick fix, use photo albums with Christmas-themed covers and designs on the pages.
