Oh My Blog!

Hello, world! It's 2011 and I'm finally blogging! My name is Pearl and I like all sorts of crafty crafts... from scrapbooking to letterpress arts to pottery, I love it all. So naturally, this blog will be centered around all of the above and more.

Where do I begin? Let's see... let's start with scrapbooking. There are many reasons why I love this craft. There's a bit of a record keeping, there's a bit of designing, there's a mix of different mediums and there are often pictures and photos.

For a much better description of what it's all about, watch this video from Cooper-Hewitt about the history of scrapbooking. It's a panel discussion over 1.5 hours long so if you can't get through the whole video, here are some of my favorite moments to fast forward to 9:13, 31:45, 32:41 and 40.01 ("scrapbook" defined).

Until the next post!
