Cheapest place for Scrapbooks?

20 replies

Can't believe I am posting in arts and crafts - what next, pinnies? Chutney?

ANYWAY I am making a 12x12 for my deceased grandmother's bits and pieces - does anyone know where the cheapest place online is to buy scrapbooks? Or is there somewhere you can recommend? I want something classy, maybe linen-covered...

I too found none in Boots,
LOL at pinnies and Chutney thast what I thought during my recent first attempt at scrapbooking. There uncinfirmed reports that I was wearing a pinnie in the kitchen while preparing for my FIL's 60th. I am of course denying it Blush. What next cross stitch.

{{{{{whispers}}}}}}} have you seen the crafting hour in QVC its addictive viewing.

HEY WHO SAID THAT on my thread Angry.

ooh that lakeland one looks nice - any idea what it is like? It's hard to tell without seeing them

I saw some photograph albums in Boots with removeable 12x12 pages but this isn't what you mean, is it?

Deffo not on the Boots website are they?

I've never heard of The Range - thanks for your offer!

The lakeland one is nice. I've seen it in the shop. Plus there's an offer on the paper at the same time. Postage is fairly reasonable and would be free if you spent £45 Wink

I got one! The £9.99 ones from Boots and it was half price and I paid with points so it cost me nothing :)

I think they had 2 or 3 left so I could go back. The 1/2 price offer wasn't advertised though so it was a nice surprise.
