How to Make a Mini Accordion Scrapbook - Video
A folding scrapbook or accordion scrapbook (often misspelled as "accordian") is an easy way to make a fun photo memory book. It only requires some basic supplies, such as paper, scissors, a trimmer, tape or adhesives, and some chipboard. With this kind of accordion fold scrapbook, you can make it have as many folded pages as you would like to fit in all the photos (you aren't stuck with trying to put pages into a binder, either). This video shows how this kind of mini album can be an add on to a larger scrapbook.
You can do all the embellishments to an accordion album that you would add to any other kind of scrapbook. You can use markers or pens to write captions or for journaling in your book. Some scrapbookers use ribbons, brads, and all kinds of fun die cuts, too. But the main element is your photos - and an accordion book is a really nice way to display those.

We hope you learned something you can use to save you some time and money with this video. This is also a great project to do with kids!
