Scrapbook My Life

My husband and I recently purchased our first home, so I’ve been thinking of ways to scrapbook this occasion. Here are some of the home themed page ideas I’ve seen in various places:

• How did you choose the color schemes/themes for the rooms in your house?
• Do you have any special collections displayed in your home?
• How would you describe your interior decorating style?
• What do you like the most about your home? What do you like the least?

I also like the idea of charting the progress of various remodeling projects. I’ve been busy saving paint chips, tear sheets from interior decorating magazines, fabric swatches, and other little bits of memorabilia to incorporate into my “Welcome to Our Home” project.

If you’re looking for some great home quotes to embellish your scrapbook layouts, here are a few of my favorites:

• “There’s nothing half so pleasant as coming home again.” –Margaret Elizabeth Sangster
• “When you’re safe at home you wish you were having an adventure; when you’re having an adventure you wish you were safe at home” –Thorton Wilder
• “Home is the place where it feels right to walk around without shoes”  –Anonymous
• “A house is made of walls and beams; a home is built with love and dreams.” –Anonymous
