Scrapbooks are Back, Bigger and Better Than Ever
PrimeStories - Interests
By Teresa Ambord

Scrapbooking isn’t what it used to be.  As teenagers, we saved clippings of our favorite teen idols, from Ricky Nelson to David Cassidy and others. These days, making a scrapbook has been raised to both an art and an industry. The supplies are everywhere, with some stores dedicated only to scrapbooking. No longer are you limited to the big, plain books we had as teenagers.  Now you can buy an infinite array of special pages, pens, punches… you name it.  They make great gifts for event-centered occasions, like graduations or landmark birthdays.

You can also cut your energy bills year round, protect your home from wind and sun damage, cut your use of water and pesticides, and help control the noise and air pollution near your home.

The U.S. Department of Energy reports that carefully positioning trees around your home to provide shade can cut your household energy consumption for heating and cooling up to 25 percent. After all, most of the need for air conditioning is caused by sun coming through windows.
