Maybe you are done creating your family tree and you are now wondering how you can have even more fun with it. Well, there is such a thing as family tree scrap booking.
It's a scrapbook as you know it, but it contains bits and pieces, information that tells the story of your family. For many grown-ups who have completed family trees and are wondering how to get their children into learning about their family and their family line, this is a perfect way. Your children will be learning invaluable history about from where they are descended, and they will also have lots of fun making a scrapbook.
What do you need?
1. A scrapbook or a big plain sheet of paper where you have a tree that you will add your scraps.
2. Some pictures of your family.
3. Some mementos, things that have been passed down the family over the years that you can fit into a scrapbook.
4. A creative and fun attitude.
When family tree scrap booking, decide on how many generations back you want to go, and your family tree can be a great guide for this. The farther back you go, the more information you will need so be prepared for that.
If you use a scrapbook, on each page you can represent a generation. If you use a big sheet, use the family tree as your guide. This is where the fun begins. A generation will have names and the years that the people were born, and you may have photographs, but you want to make a really rich scrapbook so you need to get creative here. Did your great, great, great, great, grandfather live in a castle? How about you try to recreate it from stories that you have heard or even pictures that you have seen? Your personal touch in recreating it will make your scrapbook look much richer.
Find whatever other mementos that you think can go into the scrapbook and put them in there. Make it so that the scrapbook tells the family's story but in very few words. You can add notes around pictures, images and names, but don't write so much that you clutter it up.
There are shops that sell little things that you can add to your scrapbook to make it look more lively. When choosing, so that you keep the theme of your scrapbook, choose 'antiquish' looking things. You can also choose little bits and bobs that help to tell the story of your family even better.
As many people have experienced with a scrapbook, it's a work in progress. You will always find that you have something more that you want to add!
You will find that having a scrapbook is a wonderful way of elaborating upon the information that is displayed on your family tree. So just keep adding to it and making it richer!
