Mindfulness crafts for adults: Scrapbooking

Mindfulness, the practice of being fully present in the moment, has gained popularity as an effective way to reduce stress and increase overall happiness. One of the many ways you can practice mindfulness is through the art of scrapbooking. Scrapbooking is more than just gluing photos onto pages; it's a craft that allows you to curate your memories, thoughts, and emotions in a creative and expressive way. Here's how you can start your mindful scrapbooking journey with a little help from Wrendale...

 

SELECT YOUR FOCUS

Begin by collecting all of the essentials needed to create your scrapbook. Choose different textured and patterned papers, print out some of your favourite photos and gather any other bits and pieces that will help to decorate the pages. Our ink stamp set is perfect for adding some extra detail to your pages. We always find it useful to have a pack of Wrendale stickers close to hand to help stick down photos. Make sure you have a pen to hand for writing notes and captions.
